  • Publication number: 20240109766
    Abstract: Various exemplary devices, systems, and methods for dispenser health monitoring and dispenser replication are provided. In one embodiment, such a system can include a first product dispenser located at a product dispensing station and configured in part for the delivery of a product to a vehicle in accordance with an optimized configuration, and the system can also include a second product dispenser located at the product dispensing station. The system can further include a site local server located at the product dispensing station that is in operable communication with each of the first product dispenser and the second product dispenser. The site local server can be configured to receive configuration data characterizing the first configuration and to transmit the configuration data to the second product dispenser for implementation thereon.

  • Publication number: 20240111552
    Abstract: Various exemplary devices, systems, and methods for dynamic management of display content are provided. In general, a terminal can be configured to output media to a user of the terminal, such as by showing media on a display of the terminal, which can be a fuel dispenser or other type of terminal. In an exemplary implementation, the terminal is configured to receive media information from a remote system that is located remotely from a site that includes the terminal. The media output by the terminal is based on the received media information but is configured to be customized locally before being output by the terminal. The local customization is configured to dynamically configure the media information to include at least one customized aspect specific to the terminal and/or to the site at which the terminal is located.

  • Publication number: 20240109765
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method including receiving, by a data processor of a fuel dispenser, first data characterizing one or more applications to be displayed via a display of the fuel dispenser during a first application session. The first data including a configuration file including an application programming interface (API) uniform resource locator (URL) associated with a first remote server from which modified application data associated with the one or more applications may be received by the data processor by accessing the API URL. Embodiments may also include displaying, based on the first data, a first instance of at least one application in at least one display frame of the display, the at least one application configured to receive user inputs from a user of the fuel dispenser. Related apparatus, systems, and articles are also described.

  • Patent number: 11940961
    Abstract: Data characterizing wireless emissions of a mobile device of a fuel dispenser user can be received. An identity-less parameter associated with the mobile device of the fuel dispenser user can be determined from the received data. A determination of whether the identity-less parameter is associated with a database record characterizing a profile and stored in a profile database can be made. The determination of whether the identity-less parameter is associated with the database record can be provided.

  • Patent number: 11810349
    Abstract: In one aspect, data characterizing a video feed acquired by a camera oriented toward and including a field of view of a forecourt of a fueling station can be received. The video feed can be monitored for hazards, and the monitoring of the video feed can include performing automatic hazard detection on the video feed using at least one predictive model that predicts a presence of a hazard within the forecourt of the fueling station. A command can be transmitted in response to the detecting of the presence of the hazard within the forecourt of the fueling station. Related apparatus, systems, methods, techniques, and articles are also described.

  • Publication number: 20220267137
    Abstract: In one aspect, data characterizing a session during which fuel is to be dispensed from a fuel dispenser can be received from the fuel dispenser and by a client device of a user of the fuel dispenser. A fuel dispensing parameter characterizing an operational parameter of the fuel dispenser can be received at a field of a graphical interface displayed on the client device. A token characterizing a credential associated with the user for initializing the dispensing of the fuel during the session can be determined. An initialization of the dispensing of the fuel from the fuel dispenser can be authorized based on the determined token and the received fuel dispensing parameter.

  • Publication number: 20210375087
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for associating vehicle identification information with other visually captured information are provided. In general, a system can include a processor configured to receive an image from a camera located at a fueling station. The processor can be configured to apply an algorithm to extract various features from the image, such as a vehicle that is present in the image, facial features of a driver and/or a passenger of the vehicle, or a license plate of the vehicle. The features can be used by the processor to determine information from the features, such as the identity of the driver, the make/model of the vehicle, or an owner of the vehicle. The processor can then, based on the determined information, be configured to take a variety of actions and thereby reduce the likelihood of possible future losses associated with the vehicles or individuals present in the image.
