Patent number: 11695779Abstract: A computing support system is configured to programmatically manage support access to a computing system via a support technician console across multiple levels of support access. The system receives a request to authenticate a user requesting support for the computing system, issues one or more authentication challenges to the user to authenticate the identity of the user, receives one or more corresponding authentication challenge responses from the user based on the authentication challenge, and verifies a level of authentication based on the authentication challenge response, the level of authentication being selected from multiple levels of authentication. The system also determines a level of support access to the computing system based on the verified level of authentication and the identity of the user and programmatically enforces limits on the support access to the computing system via the support technician console based on the determined level of support access.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2022Date of Patent: July 4, 2023Assignee: MSP Solutions Group LLCInventors: Timothy Mark Conkle, Sage David Driskell, Luke Matthew Glover

Patent number: 10661311Abstract: An automated tote routing systems that includes a conveyer belt, an array of sensors underneath the conveyer belt, and an identifier reader disposed with respect to the conveyer belt is discussed. The conveyer belt can be configured to receive a tote filled with physical objects. The array of sensors can detect a first set of attributes associated with the physical objects within the tote. The identifier reader can read and decode an identifier from a machine-readable element disposed on the tote. The array of sensors and identifier reader can transmit the first set of attributes and the identifier to a computing system. Based on the set of information associated with the physical objects and the set of attributes associated with the physical objects, a routing module executed by the computing system can automatically trigger the conveyer belt to route the tote to a selected distribution end of the conveyor belt.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 2017Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: Walmart Apollo, LLCInventors: David Winkle, Bruce W.
