  • Publication number: 20240146775
    Abstract: Templated document stream integration of checklist data includes loading different checklist templates for a generic endpoint in a computing infrastructure, each containing partially filed data and each corresponding to a different security policy hardening the generic endpoint from a cyberthreat. Specific endpoints are then selected in the computing infrastructure and, for each corresponding specific endpoint, a set of checklists generated, each checklist in the set deriving from a different checklist template and including the partially filled data of one of the different checklist templates. Further, remediation data stored in a data store of an enterprise application is merged into each one of the generated checklists in the set. Finally, the enterprise application is updated with respect to the corresponding one of the selected specific endpoints with the different checklists merging the partially filled data and the remediation data.

  • Patent number: 11887432
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods related to multi-player casino games are described. An electronic gaming device is provided that allows a live player to compete against a virtual player in a multi-player wager-based game using playing cards derived from the insertion of a physical denomination of currency. The electronic gaming device can be configured to simulate the decision making of a virtual player and associated behaviors of the virtual player during game play. In some instances, the simulated behaviors of the virtual player output at the electronic gaming device can be learned by a live player so that the live player can make better or more advantageous game play decisions. The simulated behaviors of the virtual player can be conveyed to the live player via visual images, such as simulated facial expressions of the virtual player.

  • Publication number: 20170176207
    Abstract: An illustrative example vehicle navigation system includes a user interface having at least a display screen for providing a display output to a user and a controller, which includes at least one processor and memory associated with the processor. A first user input indicates a direction of user attention exterior to the vehicle. A second user input is different than the first user input. The controller determines that the first user input and the second user input indicate a desire for information regarding an object or location in the direction of user attention. The controller identifies at least one object or location in a vicinity of the vehicle based at least on the first user input. The user interface provides information regarding the identified object or location.

  • Patent number: 9505404
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a collision system in a vehicle that uses a three dimensional imaging device to map a three dimensional object external to the vehicle. A positioning module will superimpose the position of the body of the vehicle onto the mapped object in dependence of the potential impact location. The positioning module will communicate the impact location to a collision avoidance aid such as an audio or visual warning.
