  • Patent number: 12107846
    Abstract: A system and method for improving login processes with a unique login-interface system is disclosed. The unique login-interface system allows users to subscribe, join, or sign-up for an automatic login interface that does not require explicit registration other than inclusion in a messaging system. The messaging system may be any number of systems such as email, text messaging, phone calls, or any other messaging system in which there is a user identification or alias associated with a user. The user identification may be of any type that is presented or recognized in a computing world. The unique login-interface system includes an identity-provider application with a collision-resolution engine to ensure unique user identity credentials and an inference engine to identity multiple participant entries for a single user.

  • Patent number: 12066320
    Abstract: An electronic measurement device or electronic scale including an arrangement of multiple low-cost sensors to measure a physical property of an object is disclosed. The electronic measurement device or electronic scale utilizes an accurate and effective calibration method that compensates for the idiosyncrasies of using individual sensors. The electronic measurement device positions a plurality of sensors at predetermined observational locations to provide sensor output signals in response to sensing physical characteristics of the physical property of the object to be measured and combines the different sensor output signals by applying a combined calibration transfer function that represents a calibration function for each of the plurality of sensors to provide a cumulative measurement signal that represents the measurement of the physical property of the object. A centroid of the mass of the object is computed and used to execute different applications.

  • Publication number: 20240259446
    Abstract: A system and method for improving event and user communications and experiences. (e.g., managing meetings and their participants) is disclosed. By treating events such as meetings and their participants (meeting leaders and invited attendees) as a managed system, the present invention improves the quality and outcomes of meetings and the satisfaction of the participants. The present invention also makes joining of this intelligently-managed system particularly simple for new as well as returning participants, by providing a unique approach to the issues at the pre-meeting, meeting, and post-meeting phases in order to generate scores for the particular meeting, each participant (meeting leader and attendees), and a meeting graph linking the performance of each participant (meeting leader and attendees). This score is used to adjust and predict participant (meeting leader and attendees) behavior in subsequent meetings.

  • Patent number: 9430728
    Abstract: The electronic identification system provides two-way communications between reader and tags using alternating magnetic fields established by the reader and tag. Communication is accomplished by utilizing either a one-step or a two-step modulation process in which the information to be communicated either modulates an alternating magnetic field directly or modulates a periodic signal which modulates an alternating magnetic field. The coil in the reader that is used to establish an alternating magnetic field is transformer-coupled through capacitors to a push-pull driving circuit consisting of four field-effect transistors connected in a bridge arrangement. The coil, capacitors, and coupling circuitry are maintained in a tuned condition by continually adjusting either the driving frequency, the coil inductance, or the capacitor capacitance during communications.

  • Publication number: 20020181466
    Abstract: The present invention is a system that completes a communication initiated with an insufficient partial/incomplete or fuzzy destination address. A fuzzy address processor breaks the fuzzy address into the tokens, assigns the tokens as an index component, a disambiguation component or an other component and uses the components to perform one or more address information database searches to find records with similar address information. The records found are compared to the original fuzzy address and the record with the closest match is used as the record from which a complete address is obtained. The best match is determined using a lowest score of a lexical rewrite distance metric. The complete address is used to forward or send the communication to the destination.

  • Patent number: 6472975
    Abstract: The coil in the reader that is used to establish an alternating magnetic field is transformer-coupled through capacitors to a push-pull driving circuit consisting of four field-effect transistors connected in a bridge arrangement. The coil, capacitors, and coupling circuitry are maintained in a tuned condition by continually adjusting either the driving frequency, the coil inductance, or the capacitor capacitance during communications. A tag utilizes a coil to couple with the reader's alternating magnetic field and a capacitor to resonate the coil, thereby extracting power from the field more efficiently. Transformer coupling of the coil and capacitor is utilized for improved impedance matching. The coil, capacitor, and coupling circuitry can be maintained in a tuned condition by continually adjusting either the coil inductance, or the capacitor capacitance during communications. Certain configurations of the system may require that tuning maintenance be discontinued during the transmission of data.
