Patent number: 12250341Abstract: A system for monitoring phone numbers includes a computing device having at least one processor and memory associated with the processor. A telephone network supports a plurality of telephone numbers. The computing device is configured to obtain data directly from the telephone network. The data indicates call activity involving the phone numbers, respectively, during a time period having a preselected duration. The computing device determines, for each of the phone numbers, whether the data indicates that there were no successfully answered calls placed to the phone number during the time period. For any such phone number, the computing device places a test call to the phone number. In the event that the test call is not successful, the computing device provides an indication of a problem with the phone number.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2023Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignee: AVOXI, INC.Inventors: Randy Layman, Barbara Dondiego-Stewart, Keith Meyers, Matthew Nichols, Robert Rushton, Zach Pate

Patent number: 12008681Abstract: Systems and methods of testing a vehicle system. The systems and methods generate a simulation of a driving scenario to provide simulation video data, display the simulation on a monitor using the simulation video data, capture the displayed simulation using a camera system of the vehicle system to provide video data, process the video data using a perception algorithm to detect and track objects in the video data to provide perception data, control a vehicle actuator of the vehicle system in response to the perception data to provide command data, and adapt the simulation based on the command data. The camera system has a field of view and the monitor has a viewable area. The simulation of the driving scenario is scaled in proportion to a ratio of the field of view of the camera projected onto the monitor and dimensions of the viewable area.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2022Date of Patent: June 11, 2024Assignee: GM TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS LLCInventors: Robert Meyer, Samuel Latto

Publication number: 20230328097Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems disclosed herein measure endpoint user security event susceptibility (e.g., a malware infection) and provide information for endpoint posture evaluation. A relatively small software application may be installed using, for example, a systems management push system where the software runs on each endpoint system and reports back to a central repository or base system. The software runs on machines that it is pushed to and generates a score for that endpoint. That score is a quantification of endpoint user security risk, i.e., the likelihood that a particular endpoint is likely to be the source of a security event at some point in the future. This information may be used to generate a Relative Score for each endpoint so that the endpoints can be ranked from most secure to least secure and an Absolute Score so that a given distributed system can be compared to other distributed systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Applicant: Six Engines, LLCInventors: Mark Eric Obrecht, Robert Meyers, Taylor Crumpton

Patent number: 11513092Abstract: The invention is directed to a gas sensor that includes a hotplate, a support structure, a gas selective filter, and circuitry. The support structure is configured to define a cavity. The gas selective filter is held by the support structure and spans the cavity. Various components are connected to the circuitry, and may include a temperature sensor element, a gas sensing element, and a heater. The temperature sensor element is configured to sense a temperature Tf of the filter. The gas sensing element is sensitive to a target gas in the cavity. The heater is in thermal communication with the gas sensing element. The circuitry is configured to operate the sensing element, estimate a temperature Tf of the filter, and regulate the heater. The circuitry regulates an extent to which power is supplied to the heater based on the estimated temperature Tf of the filter.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2020Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: Sensirion AGInventors: Michael Rabe, Robert Meyer-Piening, Matthias Studer

Publication number: 20220324532Abstract: Chips removably attached to a bicycle frame allow different size hubs and axles to be connected to a frame. As the frame represents a major part of the investment in a bicycle, the chips allow a single frame to accommodate different wheels. The user can then use a wheel having the appropriate tire and attachments for the terrain to be traversed. For instance, a particular wheel and tire would be used for a downhill mountain trail, another wheel used for riding on paved surfaces and a third wheel hub would be used for loose surfaces, such as sand or gravel. Therefore, the user is able to adapt the bicycle for a variety of different terrains and uses.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 7, 2021Publication date: October 13, 2022Applicant: REX ENTERPRISES, dba RAMBO BIKESInventor: Robert MEYER
