Patent number: 11474537Abstract: A safety system for an automated storage and picking system is described. The storage system includes load handling devices operating above a series of stacked containers located within a framework, the top of which includes tracks on which the load handling devices operate. The safety system includes a transmitter located in close proximity to the storage system and a receiver located on each of the load handling devices. The transmitter can continually transmit a signal that is detected by the receivers on the load handling devices. In the event of an emergency or a breach of the storage system, the transmission of the signal is cut. Once the receiver no longer receives the signal from the transmitter, power to each load handling device drive is cut to render the storage system safe.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2018Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: OCADO INNOVATION LIMITEDInventors: Jennifer Jane Shields, Timothy Deighton Steiner, Nicholas John Butler, Pete Campbell

Patent number: 11178281Abstract: A technique relates to communication resource allocation. A computer system monitors a communication between a conversational entity communication channel and a user device. A type of the communication associated with the user device is determined based on the communication. A replacement communication channel to replace the conversational entity communication channel is determined, in response to the type of the communication. The replacement communication channel is coupled to the user device in place of the conversational entity communication channel.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2019Date of Patent: November 16, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Christopher John Butler, Ross Judd, Timothy M.

Patent number: 11157839Abstract: A method for displaying a visual representation corresponding to a carriage capacity may include obtaining passenger data of passengers onboard a carriage of a multi-carriage vehicle. The method may further include predicting, based at least in part on the first passenger data, a number of passengers who will exit the carriage at a destination. The method may further include determining, based at least in part on the predicting, an available capacity for the carriage and generating a visual representation that corresponds to the available capacity. The method may further include displaying the visual representation at the destination of the multi-carriage vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2018Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Khoi-Nguyen D. Tran, Ying Xu, Nebula Alam, Christopher John Butler

Patent number: 11074354Abstract: Segmentation and classification of documents in a mixed security environment includes receiving a document including a plurality of subcomponents. A security classification level of each of the plurality of subcomponents is determined using a first classification model. The security classification level of each subcomponent includes one of a first classification level and a second classification level. A first subcomponent having the first classification level is routed to a first environment having a first security level. A second subcomponent having the second classification level is routed to a second environment having a second security level. A pointer for the second subcomponent is determined in which the pointer references a portion of the first subcomponent.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2018Date of Patent: July 27, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Christopher John Butler, Timothy M. Lynar, Adam Joseph Makarucha
