  • Patent number: 10803462
    Abstract: An attempt to conduct an electronic transaction using an electronic device is detected. The electronic device contains one or more sensors, such as an accelerometer, an ambient light sensor, a gyroscope, a GPS unit, or a transceiver. In response to the detected attempt to conduct the electronic transaction, an analysis is performed using data gathered by the one or more sensors to estimate one or more current statuses of the electronic device. The estimated one or more current statuses of the electronic device are compared with one or more expected statuses of the electronic device according to a model. An alert is generated in response to the comparison indicating that some of the estimated current statuses of the electronic device are inconsistent with the expected statuses of the electronic device.

  • Patent number: 10796298
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing interaction between a user device and an interactive display system using near field communications are provided. The interactive display system includes a display panel configured to present visual content and near field communication (NFC) devices behind or within the display panel. The interactive display system detects a user device adjacent to the display panel using at least one of the NFC devices. The interactive display system determines a position relative to the display panel for the user device. The interactive display system exchanges data with the user device based on the position. The interactive display system may receive data that includes displayable information from the user device and present the displayable information on the display panel at or near the position for the user device. The interactive display system may simultaneously interact with more than one user device.

  • Patent number: 10397264
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for providing digital dye packs in connection with a transaction via a device user interface. In an embodiment, a system includes a communication module of a remote server that interacts with a device that receives, from a user of the device, specific identifier information in connection with conducting a transaction with a recipient server; wherein the specific identifier information is associated with an alert of potential risk of the transaction. The system also includes a non-transitory memory comprising a database storing specific identifier information with corresponding actions that are executed based on the specific identifier information. The system further includes at least one hardware processor for executing an action in response to receiving corresponding identifier information associated with the alert of potential risk from the device in connection with the transaction.

  • Patent number: 9613030
    Abstract: A method for translating content includes providing a plurality of content on a user device. The plurality of content is associated with a first region display mode. The plurality of content is displayed on the user device in the first region display mode. A predefined orientation is then detected in the user device. The plurality of content is then translated according to a second region display mode to produce a plurality of translated content. The plurality of translated content is then displayed on the user device. In different embodiments, the plurality of content may have been previously provided on the user device, may be retrieved over a network by the user device, or my be received through a user interface on the user device. A specific embodiment allows a user to rotate the user device 180 degrees to quickly and easily translate text displayed on the user device.

  • Patent number: 9495069
    Abstract: A method for providing expanded icon functionality includes displaying a primary icon using a display device. The primary icon is associated with a primary icon function in a storage device and the primary icon function is performed in response to a first user action directed to the primary icon. A second user action that is different from the first user action is received that is directed to the primary icon and, in response, at least one secondary icon that is associated with the primary icon and the second user action in the storage device is retrieved. The at least one secondary icon is displayed using the display device. Each at least one secondary icon is associated with a respective secondary icon function in the storage device, and in response to a selection of a secondary icon, the respective secondary icon function is performed.
