Publication number: 20240013209Abstract: Technologies are shown for controlling a transaction on a blockchain. A first block is created on a blockchain for a transaction involving a seller entity associated with a first key, a buyer entity associated with a second key, and an intermediary entity associated with a third key. Funds for the transaction are associated with the first block. A second block storing refund code is created and linked to the first block. The refund code is executable to refund the funds when a seller digital signature using the first key and/or an intermediary digital signature using the third key are received. A third block storing payment code is created and linked to the first block. The payment code is executable to transfer the funds when a buyer digital signature using the second key and/or an intermediary digital signature using the third key are received.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: January 11, 2024Inventors: David John KAMALSKY, Vidit AGGARWAL, Seyed-Mahdi PEDRAMRAZI, Ethan Benjamin RUBINSON, Sachin TILLOO, Sergio Pinzon GONZALES, JR.

Patent number: 11803847Abstract: Technologies are shown for controlling a transaction on a digitally stored blockchain by creating a contract data block for a transaction involving entities and by event code executed after receipt of digital signatures from the entities. A refund transaction may be digitally signed by entities and linked to the contract block within the blockchain. A payment transaction block may also be digitally signed by entities and linked to the contract block. Code authorized to execute by the blocks executes based on receipt of digital signature events.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2018Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: eBay, Inc.Inventors: David John Kamalsky, Vidit Aggarwal, Seyed-Mahdi Pedramrazi, Ethan Benjamin Rubinson, Sachin Tilloo, Sergio Pinzon Gonzales, Jr.

Patent number: 11682059Abstract: Visual diagram searching techniques are described herein. A visual diagram service enables users to efficiently search for data for item parts even in cases where the name of the item part is unknown. In one or more examples, search query input to locate item parts of an item is received via a user interface displayed by at least one computing device. A visual diagram of the item is displayed in the user interface. The visual diagram includes selectable portions mapped to respective item parts depicted in the corresponding selectable portion of the visual diagram. A user selection of one of the selectable portions of the visual diagram of the item is received via the user interface. In response to the user selection, search result data corresponding to the respective item part depicted in the selected selectable portion of the visual diagram of the item is displayed.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2021Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: eBay Inc.Inventors: Shilpa Jois Rao, Seyed-Mahdi Pedramrazi, Shaumik Chandra Mondal, Subramanian Sri Sankaran, Bryan Ephraim Freeland, Rita Marion Bosch, James L.

Publication number: 20220277301Abstract: Technologies are shown for tracking transfer of an item on an item tracking data blockchain, where transfers of the item and the holder of the item are recorded in item tracking data blocks of the blockchain. In some examples, a verification of the item is performed for a transfer and recorded in the data block for the transfer. In other examples, the blockchain stores a unique code for the ticket. Transfers of the ticket are recorded in the blockchain. When the ticket is presented for use, a holder identifier and a presented ticket code are validated against a holder identifier in the most recent block in the blockchain and the unique code for the ticket stored in the blockchain. In some examples, a portion of a resale price of the ticket is sent to an issuer of the ticket.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2022Publication date: September 1, 2022Inventors: Sergio Pinzon Gonzales, JR., Todd Loren Lash, Ethan Benjamin Rubinson, Seyed-Mahdi Pedramrazi, Fausto Dassenno

Patent number: 10638198Abstract: Techniques for facilitating shopping for items shown or used in a video are described. For example, a user interface that includes a video and one or more images is presented. Each of the one or more images may be related to a content of the video. Each of the one or more images may include a plurality of selectable sub-areas. A selection of a sub-area of the plurality of sub-areas of an image of the one or more images is received. The selection of the sub-area may indicate a request to perform an action that pertains to the content of the video. The action is identified based on the selection of the sub-area. The action is performed in response to the selection of the sub-area.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2014Date of Patent: April 28, 2020Assignee: eBay Inc.Inventors: Dane Howard, Darren Endo, Seyed-Mahdi Pedramrazi, Gregory Tariff, Sandra Lynn Godsey

Publication number: 20140258016Abstract: Example methods and systems are directed to generating recommendations based on one or more user inventories, which may be stored in a database. The inventory may include items (e.g., physical goods, electronic goods, and financial assets) owned by a user. A machine may use the database to provide suggestions to the user to buy or sell items. The machine may also use the database to provide suggestions to the user to join a community. The database may be used in conjunction with an electronic commerce site. The machine may be aware of which items in the site are being viewed by the user. The recommendation made by the machine may take into account the item being viewed. The user may be able to view the current market value for each item individually, the total value for a selection of items, or the total value for all items.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2013Publication date: September 11, 2014Applicant: EBAY INC.Inventors: Tyler James Hale, Nishant Asthana, Michael J.
