Patent number: 11467553Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for initiating actions based on sequences of events. In one aspect, a process includes receiving, from each of multiple devices, data specifying an event detected by the device. The events are compared to configured scenarios that each specify a sequence of trigger events and an action to be initiated in response to detecting the sequence of trigger events. A determination is made that the events match a first scenario of the scenarios. In response to determining that the events detected by the multiple devices match the first scenario, a first action specified by the first scenario is initiated. A determination is made that a combination of one or more of the events detected by the multiple devices and the first action matches a second scenario. In response, a second action specified by the second scenario is initiated.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2019Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Assignee: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: Matthew Thomas Short, Mary Elizabeth Hamilton, Grace T. Cheng, Michael E. Simanek, Andrew Albert Nat, III, Amir M. Khan, Joseph Pollock, Fadi Mahmoud, Michael Baroody

Patent number: 11386646Abstract: This document describes multi-modal platforms that receive multi-modal inputs and generates interactive experiences based on the inputs. In one aspect, a method includes receiving input data comprising one or more images of an area of a sports venue. A person is detected in the one or more images. Apparel information including at least one of a team identifier or player identifier on athletic apparel of the person is identifier in the one or more images. An interactive experience that includes a particular sports-related character is selected based at least on the apparel information. The interactive experience is initiated on an interactive display. The interactive experience includes video of the particular sports-related character delivering a message to the person.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2020Date of Patent: July 12, 2022Assignee: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: David William Vinson, Matthew Thomas Short, Alex Kass, Mary Elizabeth Hamilton, Sunil Shettigar, Nikolas Martelaro, Kahlil Gibran Fitzgerald

Publication number: 20220202973Abstract: This document describes self-sanitizing systems that sanitize the cabins of vehicles. In one aspect, a method includes initiating a sanitizing cycle for sanitizing one or more surfaces of one or more components of a vehicle cabin. During the sanitizing cycle, one or more UV light sources are activated, and at least one of a shape, a position, or orientation of the surface is adjusted with respect to the one or more UV light sources. The sanitizing cycle is terminated.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2021Publication date: June 30, 2022Inventors: Marc Carrel-Billiard, Mary Elizabeth Hamilton, Edy S. Liongosari

Patent number: 11200614Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for using location data to identify and provide services in association with items appearing in captured images. One of the methods includes receiving, from a device, an image and location data representing the device's physical location, determining, based on the location data, that a particular set of one or more locations are within a threshold distance of the device's physical location, accessing, for each of the one or more locations in the particular set, item information that indicates one or more items that are associated with the location, determining, based on the accessed item information, that the image likely shows a particular item that is associated with one or more locations in the particular set, and providing, to the device, instructions for presentation of information about (i) the particular item and (ii) one or more locations in the particular set that are associated with the particular item.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2020Date of Patent: December 14, 2021Assignee: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: Matthew Thomas Short, Mary Elizabeth Hamilton, Robert Dooley, David T.
