Publication number: 20220374896Abstract: Various implementations described herein are directed to a method for providing identity, payment and/or access. A primary account number (PAN) is read from a card or token. A hashed PAN is generated. A transaction result is determined based on the hashed PAN.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2022Publication date: November 24, 2022Inventors: Weiming MA, Phuc Duyet BUI, Dendy GUNAWAN, Srinath RAVINATHAN, Xie ZHIJIAN, Bensam JOYSON, Rasika Chandana KARUNAPALA, Donghao HUANG, Paul KELLETT, James David SINTON

Patent number: 10991129Abstract: Systems and methods for projecting a color onto a surface are provided. The method includes selecting, using an application on a mobile electronic device, a color from a list of one or more colors, identifying a color of a surface onto which the selected color is to be projected, and determining, using a processor, a color of light to be projected onto the surface such that the color of light, in conjunction with the color of the surface, produces the selected color. The method further includes projecting, using a projector, the color of light onto the surface.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2018Date of Patent: April 27, 2021Inventors: Daniel Hickey, Paul Kellett

Publication number: 20200387901Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for facilitating network requests regarding transit. One exemplary method includes receiving, at a computing device, from a network, a request directed to a user account having a first resource and a second resource, where the request includes a category code for an entity and an identifier for the user account, and determining, by the computing device, whether the category code is indicative of a first segment of entities or a second segment of entities. The method then also includes, when the category code is indicative of the first segment, assigning the request to the first resource and responding to the request based on the first resource and, when the category code is indicative of the second segment, assigning the request to the second resource and responding to the request based on the second resource.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 22, 2020Publication date: December 10, 2020Inventors: Paul Kellett, Edward William Judge

Patent number: 10257989Abstract: A stabilizer is used on a tower structure of a center pivot irrigation system. The tower structure has wheels supporting the tower on a ground surface and the wheels are adapted and configured to roll on the ground surface in a direction of travel. The stabilizer has a bracing member with proximal and distal ends spaced apart by a length. The bracing member proximal end is adapted and configured to be operatively releasably connected to the tower structure such that when the stabilizer is mounted to the tower structure, the bracing member is movable from a stored position in which the bracing member distal end is arranged generally adjacent to the tower structure to a deployed position in which the bracing member distal end is arranged outboard of the wheels in the direction of travel and in contact with the ground surface.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2017Date of Patent: April 16, 2019Assignee: Pivot Pro, L.L.C.Inventors: Jeremiah Scott Anderson, Justin Daniel Bradley, Terance Paul Kellett

Patent number: 9230528Abstract: A system for automatic rearrangement of a musical composition includes a process of assigning metadata to an existing piece of music to divide it into sections and identify sections of the same type, and logic to remove and rearrange sections to produced a customized playback with a desired duration and additional options for including or removing specific sections or instruments under the control of a user.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2013Date of Patent: January 5, 2016Assignee: UJAM INC.Inventors: Paul Kellett, Peter Gorges

Patent number: 8874245Abstract: A music and audio playback system enables an operator to control an audio effect for transitioning an audio output signal from a first audio source to a second audio source by using a single cross-fader control. The transition audio effect combines the two incoming sources using a function that depends on the current position of the cross-fader control. Effects include cross-fading the frequency range, band-ducking, vocoder effects, and beat-cutting effects. The technique is especially advantageous in DJ performance systems in which audio effect-based transitions can add excitement and variety to a performance. Dedicated transition effect preset buttons located near the cross fader facilitate rapid selection by the DJ of the cross-fader controlled transition audio effect.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2010Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: Inmusic Brands, Inc.Inventors: Mario Reinsch, Paul Kellett, Wolfram J.

Patent number: 8745259Abstract: A live rendering system can execute a process of buffering received data at the client to avoid needing to transfer the same data multiple times. If the client does not have data available for a wanted playback position (either compressed or decoded) then this data needs to be transferred from the server, including any overlaps needed for producing a continuous stream. The client stores the data in the event that it is needed again, but can discard the data if it receives notice that the stream content has changed. The buffering process can operate with a first priority to buffer data ahead of a currently selected playback position which is the most likely to be needed next, to minimize any delay or pauses in playback if needed data has not yet arrived. The download can be managed to preserve the known good part of decoded data.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2012Date of Patent: June 3, 2014Assignee: Ujam Inc.Inventors: Jan Deinhard, Tobias Lensing, Paul Kellett

Patent number: 8710343Abstract: A music composition automation system includes logic to assign metadata to an audio recording to divide a melody in the recording into sections, and to identify song form section types for the sections. In addition, logic to associate audio accompaniment with the sections based on the identified section types can be based on a style library, that is arranged to provide data executable by a data processing system to generate musical phrases associated with respective styles. Musical phrases in the style library include metadata specifying characteristics of the phrase according to song form section type.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2011Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: Ujam Inc.Inventors: Paul Kellett, Peter Gorges, Axel Hensen, Norman Schmielau
