Patents by Inventor Joe BYRNE

Joe BYRNE has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10960688
    Abstract: A printer having a vacuum system to hold down material being printed is provided. The vacuum system includes a number of vacuum holes in the printer table. Each one of these vacuum holes is individually controllable such that variously sized materials may used on the printer table and vacuum may be applied only underneath the particular material being printed on.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 31, 2016
    Date of Patent: March 30, 2021

  • Patent number: 8960880
    Abstract: Enhanced media transport systems and structures are provided for printing environments. Enhanced vacuum table structures and associated methods may also be implemented for a variety of printer systems. Enhanced rail systems and associated carriage structures may preferably be used within a variety of printing environments, such as for but not limited to grand scale printers. Water-based binary epoxy ink compositions and associated processes provide adhesion and material compatibility that exceeds that of currently available UV curable products, while providing ultra-low volatile organic carbon (VOCs), and no hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). An integrated system and method for identification of consumables through a central database may also be implemented within different printing systems.

  • Patent number: 8625767
    Abstract: A conference diagnosis system can correlate information about a current teleconference with information about past conferences to make an intelligent assessment as to the potential cause of a poor audio or other condition. A conference bridge conducting the conference can then change various configuration settings on the conference bridge to resolve the problem. A running average of the results of past adjustments can be measured and direct future configuration changes. Thus, past successful adjustments can provide a starting point for changes to a new conference and real-time digital signal processing (DSP) adjustments can help tailor changes to the specific conference.

  • Patent number: 8515041
    Abstract: An audio conference of three or more communication devices is set up. An audio stream of at least one of the communication devices is identified as having an audio signal that is disruptive of the audio conference. For example, a disruption to the audio conference can be where a user has placed the audio conference on hold with music-on-hold, typing without talking, the user is speaking too loudly, the user is speaking too softly, there is echo, there is a bad connection, and the like. A feedback message is sent to the communication device associated with the audio stream with the disruptive signal. The feedback message can cause the user of the communication device who is disrupting the audio conference to take action without disrupting other participants in the audio conference.
