  • Patent number: 12231425
    Abstract: A user makes a request from a requesting device for access to a secure operation associated with a network-based service. A first biometric authentication is processed for the request and at least one second scope-based authentication is processed for the request based on an analysis of a physical environment for the requesting device. A determination is made based on at least the first biometric authentication and the scope-based authentication whether the secure operation can be: processed on behalf of the user by the network-based service, not processed at all, or processed only if requested from a specific medium/channel associated with a specific device, which may or may not be the requesting device.

  • Publication number: 20250053915
    Abstract: A pre-staged or in-person provided order is received from a customer location. Order details are sent to a fulfillment terminal and items associated with the order are prepared or collected. The items are loaded into an autonomous device. The autonomous device plans a route from its current location to the customer location and the autonomous device navigates from its current location to the customer location using the route. The customer is verified at the autonomous device and a secure bin is unlocked by the autonomous device. The customer removes the items associated with the order from the unlocked secure bin, and the autonomous device navigates back to its original location within an enterprise.

  • Publication number: 20250047718
    Abstract: Security video is captured when one or more individuals are detected as entering a secure area. Actions of the one or more individuals are monitored based on security policies associated with the secure area. Identifiers for the one or more individuals and action identifiers for the actions are recorded in a security log while the one or more individuals remain in the secure area. The security video is stopped when the individuals are detected as exiting the secure area. The security video is linked to entries recorded in the security log. In an embodiment, when a non-compliant action is detected from the actions based on the security policies, a real-time alert is raised, and/or the security video is streamed in real time to a security monitor.

  • Patent number: 12217347
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to creating interactive avatars that can be pinned as world-locked artificial reality content. Once pinned, an avatar can interact with the environment according to contextual queues and rules, without active control by the avatar owner. An interactive avatar system can configure the avatar with action rules, visual elements, and settings based on user selections. Once an avatar is configured and pinned to a location by an avatar owner, when other XR devices are at that location, a central system can provide the avatar (with its configurations) to the other XR device. This allows a user of that other XR device to discover and interact with the avatar according to the configurations established by the avatar owner.

  • Patent number: 12211590
    Abstract: A user may select one or more potential common ancestors with a DNA match to view the target individual's relationship with them. The process may include identifying, from a first genealogical profile of the target individual. A first individual has a first linkage that connects the target individual towards the selected potential common ancestor. The process may also include identifying, from a second genealogical profile of the DNA match, a second individual who has a second linkage that connects the DNA match towards the selected potential common ancestor. The process may further include connecting the first linkage and the second linkage with the selected potential common ancestor by adding one or more individuals whose profiles are retrieved from other searchable genealogical profiles stored in the online system. With the nodes and connections available, the process may generate a map of visual connections between the target individual and the DNA match.

  • Publication number: 20250029585
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for providing a more consistent background noise for mixed audio transmitted from a local environment to a remote location. The systems and methods may generate and add aggregate comfort noise to a mixed audio signal, and the aggregate comfort noise may be based on noise spectral estimates from each audio device in an environment. Metrics related to speech and noise levels may be shared between the audio devices in an environment to modify the noise reduction processing of audio signals on each audio device.

  • Patent number: 12206588
    Abstract: A method of reducing the bandwidth usage of a network comprises intercepting traffic between a TCP server and a TCP client using TCP protocols that use client acknowledgements; identifying client acknowledgements from the TCP protocols; identifying the sequence number of a last received client acknowledgements from the intercepted traffic; identifying the sequence number of a last sent client acknowledgement from the intercepted traffic; calculating an unacknowledged byte value based on the difference between the last received client acknowledgement sequence number and the last sent client acknowledgement sequence number; comparing the calculated unacknowledged byte value with a predetermined threshold value, to determine whether the calculated unacknowledged byte value is at least as great as the predetermined threshold value; and transmitting the identified client acknowledgements into the network when the compared unacknowledged byte value is at least as great as the predetermined threshold value.

  • Patent number: 12193778
    Abstract: A surgical instrument includes an elongate shaft, a proximal clevis on the distal end of the shaft, a distal clevis coupled to the proximal clevis, and an end effector assembly. The distal clevis includes a proximally extending portion and a pair of bosses in fixed positions on the proximally extending portion. A first pin couples the end effector assembly to the distal clevis. A second pin, which has an axis perpendicular to the axis of the first pin, extends through the bosses to couple the proximal and distal clevises. Tendons extend from the end effector assembly around pulleys disposed on the bosses and through the shaft.

  • Patent number: 12198916
    Abstract: A night vision system, a microchannel plate (MCP), and a planetary deposition system and methodology are provided for selectively depositing an electrode contact metal on one side of MCP channel openings. MCPs can be secured to a face of a platter that rotates about its central platter axis. The rotating platter can be tilted on a fixture surrounding an evaporative source of contact metal. A mask with a variable size mask opening is arranged between the rotating platter and the evaporative source. While the mask orbits around the evaporative source with the rotating platter, the mask does not rotate along its own axis as does the rotating platter. Depending on the opening of the non-rotating mask, and the tilt angle of the rotating platter, the respective circumferential distance around and the depth into the shaded first side of the channel opening is controlled.
