  • Patent number: 11868395
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to process a digital photo and other media. An apparatus to process digital photos can include a tangibly embodied computer processor (CP) and a tangibly embodied database. The CP can perform processing including: (a) inputting a photo from a user device, and the photo including geographic data that represents a photo location at which the photo was generated; (b) comparing at least one area with the photo location and associating an area identifier to the photo as part of photo data; and (c) performing processing based on the area identifier and the photo data.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8844126
    Abstract: Electrical resistance between a male part and a female part through a canted spring is disclosed using mathematical modeling. Increase or decrease in resistance can be quickly analyzed by looking at the equivalence resistance and the number of contacts at the input side, the output side, or both. The number of contacts may also be created by forming a dimple having a discontinuity.
