Publication number: 20250030373Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for protecting an escrow clutch of a self-service terminal. The systems and methods may include actuating a motor of the self-service terminal to cause an escrow clutch of the self-service terminal to spin at a rate. As the clutch spins, a determination as to when a clutch slippage exceeds a preset slippage rate may be made. When the clutch slippage exceeds the preset slippage rate, the motor may be actuated to cause the escrow clutch to spin at a second rate. The second rate may less than the first rate.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2024Publication date: January 23, 2025Inventors: Michael McLeod Rennie, Scott Low Colston

Patent number: 11924175Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to intelligently classifying Web trackers in a privacy preserving manner and mitigating the effects of such Web trackers. As users browse the Web and encounter various Web sites, tracker-related metrics are determined. The metrics are obfuscated to protect the privacy of the user. The obfuscated metrics are provided as inputs to a machine learning model, which is configured to output a classification for the Web trackers associated with the Web sites visited by the user. Depending on the classification, the effects of the Web trackers are mitigated by placing restrictions on the Web trackers. The restrictions for a particular Web tracker may be relaxed based on a level of user engagement a user has with respect to the tracker's associated Web site. By doing so, the compatibility risks associated with tracking prevention are mitigated for Web sites that are relatively important to the user.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Brandon J. Maslen, Edward Arther Scott Low

Patent number: 11727140Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system configured to collect and maintain user data within a first party silo while allowing third party data consumers to use the user data in accordance with explicit input from users. The system provides a user with transparency and control with regard to data use by displaying graphical user interfaces configured to receive input indicating whether the user allows or prevents third party data consumers to use his or her data. The system exposes an API that enables the third party data consumers to submit a data query. The system uses the data query to internally analyze a user data set. User data is included in the user data set in accordance with the input. The system is configured to provide, via the API, a result of the analysis to the third party data consumer that submitted the data query without providing the user data set.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2020Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Ryan Gregory Cropp, Edward Arthur Scott Low, Lillian Kravitz

Patent number: 11612708Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are provided for controlling the operation of a breathing assistance device for a user. The controller may include an input for receiving sensor data to measure at least one airflow parameter of the user's airflow; a memory unit that stores at least one machine learning model and at least one classifier or predictor; and a processor that is configured to perform measurements and to generate a control signal for adjusting the operation of the breathing assistance device for a current monitoring time period by: obtaining measured air pressure and/or airflow data and measured FOT data during a current monitoring time period; performing feature extraction on the measured data to obtain feature values that are used by the machine learning model employed by the at least one classifier or predictor to determine a property of the user; and adjusting the control signal based on the determined property.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2022Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: NovaResp Technologies Inc.Inventors: Hamed Hanafialamdari, Scott Lowe, Stephen Driscoll, Luke Hacquebard, David Cecil Roach, Klaus Michael Schmidt

Publication number: 20220398345Abstract: An application programming interface (API) is provided to an application configured to cause display of a user interface (UI). An item of targeted content and metadata corresponding to the item of targeted content is received. The item is rendered in the UI and a call to the API is initiated based on the metadata, the call causing the UI to render a UI feature concurrently within the item. Interaction with the UI feature causes the application to display additional UI features that identify the provider of the item and user information it possesses, the information comprising a reason for the item being provided. Further UI features may be rendered that enable a user to manage such information. In another aspect, the application may comprise a web browser and UI features rendered using the API may comprise a tracker information UI that enables the user to control use of browser trackers.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2021Publication date: December 15, 2022Inventors: Lillian Rachel KRAVITZ, Nadya AMIRCHOUPANI, Melanie Elizabeth RICHARDS, Edward Arthur Scott LOW, Kyle Blair RISAN

Patent number: 11075751Abstract: A modular valuable media recycling device is presented. The valuable media recycling device includes a media infeed module, a validator module, an escrow module, a plurality of media feeder/stacking modules, and a plurality of cassette modules. When a module handles a valuable media item along a media transport path, the module's identifier and security information are passed as a message to a next module that is to handle the media item in a processing path for the media item. Each module independently validates the authenticity of the message received from a previous module. The number of media feeder/stacking modules and cassette modules are scalable based on the transaction terminal that the modular valuable media recycling device is integrated into.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2018Date of Patent: July 27, 2021Assignee: NCR CorporationInventors: Alexander William Whytock, Scott Low Colston, Ross Johnston, Craig Scott Nicol, Anthony James Storey
