Publication number: 20250045662Abstract: Computerized methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, for guided workflow processing include a server computing device which determines a guided workflow transaction path based upon input received from a first client device. The server initiates a transaction based upon the transaction path, including capturing data elements associated with a user of a second client device. The server stores the captured data elements, including a transaction identification token and a state of the transaction path. The server receives a request to continue the transaction from the second client device and retrieves the data elements. The server generates a user interface form based upon the state of the transaction path and displays the user interface form on the second client device. The server processes the transaction based upon input received from the second client device via the user interface form.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 30, 2023Publication date: February 6, 2025Inventors: Pei Yan Wu, Fredric Phillips Jacobs, Gabriel Chino, Michael Edward Masscotte, Joshua Forest Schum, Aaron Douglas DiNardo

Patent number: 12217383Abstract: Techniques for aligning image content are disclosed. The alignment occurs by concurrently identifying corner and line features and by aligning the images based on those features. As a result, relaxed constraints can be used during the alignment process as compared to constraints that are required when aligning images using only corner features. To achieve these benefits, first and second images are acquired. A first set of pixels that correspond to corner features are detected within the images. In parallel, a second set of pixels that correspond to line features are detected within the images. Image content is then aligned from the two images. The aligning process is performed using at least some of the pixels from the first and second sets.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2022Date of Patent: February 4, 2025Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Michael Bleyer, Raymond Kirk Price, Christopher Douglas Edmonds

Patent number: 12209768Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for evaporative cooling control. In one implementation, a humidity setpoint is received for a designated space, and at least one atmospheric condition of ambient air is received. The at least one atmospheric condition is measured using one or more ambient air sensors. A performance prediction of an evaporative cooler is generated by calculating a set of one or more predicted psychrometric properties of supply air leaving the evaporative cooler based on the at least one atmospheric condition. The humidity setpoint is compared to the set of one or more predicted psychrometric properties of the performance prediction in a setpoint comparison. A flow of fluid is controlled over evaporative media using one or more pumps of the evaporative cooler. The flow of the fluid is controlled based on the setpoint comparison such that the humidity setpoint is prevented from being exceeded.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2018Date of Patent: January 28, 2025Assignee: WESTERN MECHANICAL SOLUTIONS, LLCInventors: Michael K.
