Publication number: 20260080594Abstract: A method includes executing a design generating program configured to display on a screen a graphical user interface having a virtual canvas window configured to present selected content objects to be incorporated into a unique design, and a content object selection window including available content objects to select from for presentation in the virtual canvas window. The program is configured to: receive, in the content object selection window, selection inputs indicating selection of first and second content objects and display the first and second content objects in the virtual canvas window. The program is further configured to receive, in the virtual canvas window, manipulation inputs to move the first content object to a target position relative to the second content object, and based on the first and second content objects overlapping, generate, for display in the virtual canvas window, the unique design.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 26, 2025Publication date: March 19, 2026Applicant: Cricut, Inc.Inventors: Jason Ward, Gitta Salomon, Lara Beth Mitchell, Micah Wilson, Braden Scothern, Matt Stoker

Patent number: 11022060Abstract: A system includes a controller having a control signal generation unit that provides control signals to actuate one or more valve actuators of an engine to a desired position, and control signals to modify one or more operational parameters and an operational mode of the engine. A parameter signal process unit receives parameter signals corresponding to at least one operational parameter of the engine, and at least one sensor coupled to the engine. At least one sensor corresponds to a position of a valve. A failure detection unit generates at least one fault code corresponding to one or more failure modes. A failure mode isolation unit isolates a failure mode from the one or more failure modes in response to modifying the operational parameters or the operational mode, causing actuation of the valves to a desired position, or receiving the parameter signals and the sensor.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2017Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Assignee: Cummins Inc.Inventors: Jason Ward, Krithika Mohan

Patent number: 10623472Abstract: Releases to the production environment of a cloud computing environment are deployed in a manner that maintains control over restricted data and the data plane of the cloud computing environment. A DevOps personnel is tasked with developing the release. However, the DevOps personnel is not authorized to deploy the release to the cloud computing environment because the DevOps personnel does not have access to restricted data in the cloud computing environment or the ability to modify the cloud computing environment to gain access to restricted data. Operating personnel who has access to restricted data and the right to modify the cloud computing environment is notified of the release and given release specifications providing details of the release. If the operator approves the release, the release is transferred to the cloud computing environment. A deployment engine then automatically deploys the release to the production environment of the cloud computing environment.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2018Date of Patent: April 14, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Karthik Palanivel, Jason Ward, Maksim Libenson, Rajesh Korada, Mike Kippen, William Bartholomew, Izabella Lankerovich, Pradeep Ayyappan Nair
