Patent number: 11956187Abstract: A company may implement automated workflows for convenience of users or to reduce support costs. For example, allowing a user to change an address using an automated workflow may be faster or less expensive than with a human agent. In some instances, a first communications session may be started between a first user and a second user. During the first communications session, one or more communications may be processed to select an intent of the first user and a value of an information item communicated by the first user. An automated workflow may be selected to continue assisting the first user, and the first user may be transferred to a second communications session with the automated workflow. The automated workflow may be initialized with the value of the information item that was provided during the first communications session so that the first user does not need to repeat information.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2023Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: ASAPP, INC.Inventors: Joseph Ellsworth Hackman, Christopher David Fox, Jonathan David Weese, Satchuthananthavale Rasiah Kuhan Branavan, Tao Lei

Publication number: 20050243885Abstract: The invention is achieved by using single or multiple laser sources (laser diodes) in a configuration such that when it is coupled with a dichroic substrate the laser sources outputs are coupled to produce a single desired output. The dismounted soldiers in the Department of Defense are overloaded with equipment they must carry into the combat environment. Due to many advancements in laser technology, laser devices have been produced to enhance the soldiers' war fighting capability or to provide them with realistic training aids. Unfortunately, these devices have separate housings, controls, power supplies, controls, laser sources and optics which leads to an undesired weight, space and power claims. The present invention consolidates multiple laser functions for the dismounted soldier into a single package with shared power supplies, optics and laser sources thus, minimizing the claim on weight, space, and power.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 29, 2004Publication date: November 3, 2005Inventors: John Nettleton, Dallas Barr, Jonathan Lei

Publication number: 20050146705Abstract: An improvement in a single-shot laser rangefinder having a photo-detector for detecting return laser pulse signals, a signal amplifier for amplifying the return laser pulse signals, and a range processor for determining the range of a reflecting object from the round trip time of flight of the return laser pulse signals. The difference in time at which the strongest laser pulse signal crosses the threshold for detection and the weakest laser pulse signal crosses the threshold for detection causes a timing error in the measured range.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 24, 2003Publication date: July 7, 2005Inventors: Jonathan Lei, Bradley Schilling, Dallas Barr
