Patent number: 11961136Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to processing and executing digital asset transfers between two users. An example method includes receiving a data object defining a digital asset transfer, and the data object may be a query from the first user to initiate an outbound transfer to a second user or an approval of a request for digital asset units from the second user. The method further includes retrieving account balance data objects associated with the digital asset accounts for the first and second users. The method further includes, responsive to determining that the digital asset transfer satisfies one or more transfer conditions, executing the digital asset transfer by executing a closed-loop debit from the first user and executing a closed-loop credit to the second user. The method further includes updating the account balance data object to reflect the resulting balances of each digital asset account.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: BAKKT MARKETPLACE, LLCInventors: Nicolas Frederic Cabrera, Jeffrey Scott Pittelkau, Nikolais Linsteadt, Joseph Arthur Revnes, Brian Daniel Cooper, William Matthau, Christopher Michael Petersen, Yamini Bistesh Sagar, Utkarsh Agarwal, Tim Kuchlein, Bharath Lakshmanan, William Andrew Bryant, Stephen Paul Saucier, Deepak Kumar, Anil Jaiswal, Byungkwon Jeon, Balaji Devarasetty

Publication number: 20240095723Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are generally directed to processing conversions of digital assets to fiat currency. An example method includes obtaining a conversion rate for a digital asset via an API, providing the conversion rate via a client device, receiving a digital asset conversion request and executing a digital asset conversion within a configurable time period. Executing the digital asset conversion includes causing digital asset units to be debited from the digital asset user account and causing fiat currency units to be credited to a fiat currency user account. The method further includes dynamically providing a notification of execution of the digital asset conversion via the client device, updating account balance data objects associated with the digital asset user account and the fiat currency user account, and subsequent to executing the digital asset conversion, executing a fiat currency transaction (e.g., a settlement) with a digital asset exchange system.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 28, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Christopher Michael Petersen, Jeffrey Scott Pittelkau, Nikolais Linsteadt, Joseph Arthur Revnes, Brian Daniel Cooper, William Matthau, Yamini Bistesh Sagar, Nicolas Frederic Cabrera, Utkarsh Agarwal, Tim Kuchlein, Bharath Lakshmanan, William Andrew Bryant, Stephen Paul Saucier, Deepak Kumar, Anil Jaiswal, Byungkwon Jeon, Balaji Devarasetty

Patent number: 11750945Abstract: An imaging and asynchronous laser pulse detector (ALPD) device, imaging cell of the imaging and ALPD device and method of use is disclosed. A detector generates an electrical signal in response to receiving an optical signal, wherein a frequency of the electrical signal is indicative of a frequency of the optical signal. A first detection/readout circuit is sensitive to a first frequency range, and a second detection/readout circuit is sensitive to a second frequency range. The first detection/readout circuit allows the electrical signal to pass from the first detection/readout circuit to the second detection/readout circuit.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2020Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: RAYTHEON COMPANYInventors: Adam M. Kennedy, Michael J. Batinica, Scott M. Taylor, Sean P. Kilcoyne, Paul Bryant
