Patent number: 10536688Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a directional pixel for a high-angular resolution, wide field of view, multiple view display. The design teaches a directional pixel comprising a substrate, one or more pixel driving circuits, one or more nano- or micro-scale subpixels, and one or more directional optical guiding surfaces, wherein each of said one or more subpixels is comprised of a light emitting device emitting a light beam and an optical microcavity housing said light emitting device. The optical microcavity is comprised of a plurality of reflective surfaces to specifically manipulate and tune said light beam, wherein one or more of said reflective surfaces is a light propagating reflective surface which propagates said light beam out of said microcavity, and said light propagating reflective surface is connected to said one or more directional optical guiding surfaces to direct said light beam at a specific angle.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2019Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Assignee: Avalon Holographics Inc.Inventors: Wally Haas, Jennifer Campbell-Correa, Matthew Hamilton, Stephen Hill, Jordan Peckham, Chuck Rumbolt

Publication number: 20190373265Abstract: A system and methods for a CODEC driving a real-time light field display for multi-dimensional video streaming, interactive gaming and other light field display applications is provided applying a layered scene decomposition strategy. Multi-dimensional scene data is divided into a plurality of data layers of increasing depths as the distance between a given layer and the plane of the display increases. Data layers are sampled using a plenoptic sampling scheme and rendered using hybrid rendering, such as perspective and oblique rendering, to encode light fields corresponding to each data layer. The resulting compressed, (layered) core representation of the multi-dimensional scene data is produced at predictable rates, reconstructed and merged at the light field display in real-time by applying view synthesis protocols, including edge adaptive interpolation, to reconstruct pixel arrays in stages (e.g. columns then rows) from reference elemental images.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 15, 2019Publication date: December 5, 2019Inventors: Matthew Hamilton, Chuck Rumbolt, Donovan Benoit, Matthew Troke, Robert Lockyer

Publication number: 20190349388Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems and computer implemented methods for generating a virtual or augmented reality-based oversight system of business processes at a location remote from where the business process is executed. In one example, system operations include identifying a process-based operation performed at a physical first location, where the operation is associated with a request for oversight from a remote second location. A current state of the operation at the first location is identified, and at least one input source at the first location is identified. A simulation of the current state of the operation at the first location incorporating input from the input source(s) is generated for presentation at the second location. An action performed at the first location in the current state of the operation is identified, and the second location is then transmitted a request to authorize the identified action.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2019Publication date: November 14, 2019Applicant: The Toronto-Dominion BankInventors: Christianne Moretti, James Zachary Pryor, Matthew Hamilton, Jonathan K.

Publication number: 20190334805Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems and computer implemented methods for implementing a resource allocation and adjusting resource usage and spending based on information received from a plurality of network-connected devices. One example method includes identifying a new connected device replacing an existing device associated with a resource allocation, the resource allocation defining an expected resource usage for a plurality of devices (including the existing device), obtaining historical resource usage information associated with the existing device, identifying the existing device's operational parameters, and determining an expected resource usage for the new connected device after replacement. A change in the expected resource usage in the resource allocation is calculated based on the obtained historical resource usage information associated with the existing device and the expected resource usage amount for the new connected device.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 9, 2019Publication date: October 31, 2019Applicant: The Toronto-Dominion BankInventors: Evan Cohen, Kevin Mari, Matthew Hamilton, Jonathan K.

Patent number: 10437902Abstract: Various embodiments identify candidate phrases users have used to reference a product in previous searches by analyzing query logs of a search engine. Upon identifying a candidate phrase within a volume of unstructured text, the candidate phrase is compared against a corpus of contemporary language. A frequency of each candidate phrase in contemporary language and the same in the query logs are determined and used as an indication to distinguish between genuine product references in the text or their normal use in common language in order to determine whether the volume of unstructured text is suitable, based on the number of references, for a hyperlink to a product page for the product of an electronic marketplace. Furthermore, behavioral data associated with user interaction with various aspects of the hyperlinks can be tracked over time to better identify suitable product references and tailor future hyperlink suggestions.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2013Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: A9.com, Inc.Inventors: Deepak Jain, Matthew Hamilton Battles, Nicolas Bruce Trown

Patent number: 10416851Abstract: A content publisher can use a publisher tool to tag various content elements, which enables a user viewing content from the publisher to view related advertising. In at least some embodiments, the tool is a toolbar that the publisher can use to tag content elements such as images and text, whereby the toolbar can recommend related items to be linked to those content elements. The items can be associated with an entity, such as an advertiser or electronic retailer, that will provide some level of compensation to the publisher in return for the linking. Such an approach enables the publisher to monetize the content in a way that is minimally intrusive for the end user.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2017Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Matthew Hamilton Battles, Pradeep Desai, Balaji Hariharan Chandra, Prasanth Radhakrishnan, Harshit Beri, Gaurav Gupta, Vignesh Annamalai Paramadhayalan

Publication number: 20190244244Abstract: Various embodiments enable a user editing a document to tag product references in the document. These product references can then be recognizable when the document is published online, thereby enabling ad units (or other personalized units associated with the content) to be inserted either at a location associated with a particular product reference or within the document in a designated location. For example, when editing or drafting a document, a client-side tool could enable a user to tag particular words within the text to create a hyperlink to product pages of an electronic marketplace. In another example, a client-side tool could auto-insert a list of words associated with subject matter of the same. Accordingly, mentions of these words in content could be auto-converted into text-links or hyperlinks to a respective items page of the electronic marketplace.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 17, 2019Publication date: August 8, 2019Inventors: Prasanna Krishnamoorthy, Matthew Hamilton Battles

Patent number: 10346916Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include computerized methods and systems that facilitate automate trade-order entry and execution based on social media messaging. In one embodiment, an apparatus may receive, from a social-networking service, social media data that includes various social media messages associated with social-networking accounts of various users. The apparatus may detect an occurrence of a predetermined element of content within a first social media message associated with a social networking account of a first user, and may extract data identifying at least one parameter of an action from the first social media message. The apparatus may generate proposed transaction parameters that include the at least one extracted action parameter, and in response to a confirmation of the proposed transaction parameters, the apparatus may generate one or more electronic commands to initiate a performance of the action in accordance with the confirmed transaction parameters.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2016Date of Patent: July 9, 2019Assignee: The Toronto-Dominion BankInventors: Bruno Sandre, Matthew Hamilton, Jonathan K.
