  • Patent number: 11935540
    Abstract: A method may include obtaining first audio data originating at a first device during a communication session between the first device and a second device. The method may also include obtaining an availability of revoiced transcription units in a transcription system and in response to establishment of the communication session, selecting, based on the availability of revoiced transcription units, a revoiced transcription unit instead of a non-revoiced transcription unit to generate a transcript of the first audio data. The method may also include obtaining revoiced audio generated by a revoicing of the first audio data by a captioning assistant and generating a transcription of the revoiced audio using an automatic speech recognition system. The method may further include in response to selecting the revoiced transcription unit, directing the transcription of the revoiced audio to the second device as the transcript of the first audio data.

  • Publication number: 20220335559
    Abstract: This present invention is a solution to enable the user to take advantage of live sports betting lines in the gambling industry, optionally using an artificial intelligence feature along with a series of alerts enabling bettor management of bets even while a better is not actively monitoring and controlling bets. This is achieved through an automated set target approach to live betting. The user sets a limit and if the conditions are met during the specified timeframe, the buy is triggered. This automated approach is combined with the margin. By setting automated target conditions, the user's bet is triggered automatically if those conditions are met at any point during the selected timeframe. There is also an option of just being alerted when conditions are met, versus automatically triggering the bet. The present invention is a user-friendly software solution that allows the user to take advantage of bets they like in volume on the live lines.

  • Publication number: 20060234107
    Abstract: A fuel cell plate comprises a basic plate generally adaptable to be used, for a flow of a fluid, as a cathode. The basic plate has essentially a trapezoidal top view, delimitated by a pair of longitudinal margins, and a long and short transversal margins and is provided with inlet and outlet apertures, the former being disposed parallel and close to the long transversal margin, while the latter is disposed close to the short transversal margin. The basic plate also incorporates a continuous wall, spaced from the pair of longitudinal margins and the long and short transversal margins, and extending upwardly from a top of the basic plate, the continuous wall circumscribing a flow field divided into a multiplicity of channels. Cross-sections of the flow field of the basic plate, open to the flow of fluid entering through the inlet apertures, then flowing throughout the channels and exiting through the outlet apertures, continuously diminish, so that, accordingly, velocities of the fluid continuously increase.
