  • Patent number: 11962718
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing automated robocall detection. In various embodiments, a computing system may compare first abstracted raw data, obtained from a portion of call data from a first call from a first originating party, with each of a plurality of abstracted raw data, obtained from portions of call data from a plurality of calls from a corresponding plurality of originating parties. In some instances, the plurality of abstracted raw data and the first abstracted raw data may each include at least one of word count data, phoneme count data, inter-word timing data, voice pitch estimation data, and/or background noise data. The computing system may determine whether the first abstracted raw data is indicative of the first call being a suspected unsolicited or unwanted communication, based at least in part on the comparison. If so, the computing system may perform one or more tasks.

  • Publication number: 20230412095
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing flexible printed circuit board (“PCB”)-based mobile sensor platform. In various embodiments, a flexible PCB-based mobile sensor platform includes a body portion(s) and at least one of a microcontroller, a locomotion system, sensors, a transceiver(s), and/or the like, each disposed on the body portion(s). The locomotion system includes one or more flexible PCB portions and corresponding actuators. Based on instructions from the microcontroller, at least one actuator may cause bending and unbending of a corresponding flexible PCB portion(s) that causes the flexible PCB-based mobile sensor platform to move toward a target location within a first environment. Upon arrival, the sensors may collect sensor data regarding at least one of the target location, an object located at the target location, or a portion of the object, and the microcontroller may send the collected sensor data to an external device via the transceiver.

  • Publication number: 20230239397
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing enhanced 911 call functionalities. In various embodiments, in response to receiving a 911 call request from a caller using a calling device associated with an originating telephone number (“TN”), a computing system may determine whether a user profile associated with the caller and/or the originating TN contains registered third parties on a 911 call notification list. Based on a determination that the user profile contains at least one registered third party on the 911 call notification list associated with the caller and/or the originating TN, the computing system may send a message to each of the at least one registered third party indicating that the caller has called 911, and/or may establish a listen-in only bridged connection, a full bridge connection, or a shared communication to the 911 call for each registered third party.
