  • Patent number: 12292718
    Abstract: A touchless multi-staged retail process automation systems and methods (retail process automation system) to automate key store functionalities within retail stores is disclosed. The retail process automation system receives a set of commands (e.g., a voice command) to automatically perform retail store operations such as opening a store, closing a close, automatically opening tills, etc. with the single command. As a result, the retail process automation system replaces the multiple-touches required by conventional systems with a touchless solution, thereby providing increased time and resource efficiency of managing store operations. For example, the retail process automation system intercepts a voice command to identify the associated retail store information and source of the command. The retail process automation system then generates a set of operations associated with the received voice command to alter a state of the retail store.

  • Publication number: 20230416746
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of cancer. More specifically, the present invention provides compositions and methods utilizing Meteorin-like (METRNL), C-X-C Motif Chemokine Receptor 6 (CXCR6) and/or endogenous C-X-C Motif Ligand 16 (CXCL16) as immune-oncology targets. Accordingly, in one aspect, the present invention provides compositions and methods directed to the knockout of METRNL, CXCR6 and/or CXCL16 expression in a cell. In particular embodiments, the cell is a T cell. In a specific embodiment, the present invention provides an engineered T-cell comprising disruption in the METRNL, CXCR6 and/or CXCL16 gene sequence. In another embodiment, an engineered T-cell comprises (a) at least one chimeric antigen receptor (CAR); and (b) at least one genomic disruption of METRNL, CXCR6 and/or CXCL16. In certain embodiments, the genomic disruption is performed using a CRSIPR endonuclease system.

  • Patent number: 11635167
    Abstract: A camera mount includes a pivotable assembly of a pair of arms and a pocket into which an end of one of the arms is inserted, in one of a plurality of discrete orientations. The arms are pivotably joined to one another by a fastener and permitted to be aligned at one of a plurality of angles. The camera mount is installed in a track, a rail or another system mounted to a fixture of a materials handling facility or another environment, and a camera module is mounted to another end of one of the arms. A position of the camera module is selected by installing the camera mount into a desired location on the track, the rail or the other system. An orientation of the camera module is selected by selecting the one of the plurality of discrete orientations and aligning the arms at one of the plurality of angles.
