  • Publication number: 20220329588
    Abstract: The present technology pertains to increasing security of devices that leverages an integration of an authentication system with at least one corporate service. The present technology includes receiving a request from a user device to authenticate a person as a particular user by the authentication system. The present technology also includes capturing a photo of the person attempting to be authenticated as the particular user. The present technology also includes mapping nodal points to the captured photo of the person attempting to be authenticated as the particular user to a device or service. The present technology also includes comparing the nodal points from the photo against a reference model for facial recognition of the particular user. The present technology also includes determining that the nodal points do not sufficiently match the reference model for the particular user.

  • Patent number: 11053792
    Abstract: A system for use in a wellbore can include a computing device that includes a processing device and a memory device that stores instructions executable by the processing device. The instructions can cause the processing device to generate a predicted value of a parameter associated with a well environment or with a wellbore operation. The instructions can also cause the processing device to receive sensor data that includes a measured value of the parameter; compare the predicted value to the measured value to determine a difference; and generate an interface for display that includes a data point associated with the difference plotted on a probability-mass distribution graph. The system can also include a sensor in electrical communication with the computing device and positionable proximate to the wellbore for generating the measured value of the parameter and transmitting the measured value of the parameter to the computing device.

  • Patent number: 10798479
    Abstract: An improved system and method for recognizing an audio signal due to physical activity and taking a predetermined action in response is disclosed. A “reverse noise signal” created by the sound pressure wave of the physical activity acting on the earpiece transducer is obtained. In some embodiments, an ambient noise signal is inverted and fed back, and the inverted signal is added to the intended audio signal being sent to the earpiece so that the ambient noise is cancelled. In other embodiments, a processor receives the ambient noise signal and predicts the modification to the intended audio signal needed to counteract the ambient noise. In other embodiments, the reverse noise signal may represent a motor or biological activity of a user; the system may take different actions in response to different physical activities, such as a heart beat of the user, or a tap, footfall, or swallowing by the user.
