Systems, apparatus and methods for secure and efficient data transmission across local area networks
Patent number: 12132969Abstract: In some embodiments, a method includes establishing a connection between a digital content control device that is part of a first LAN and an RCM server. A first authentication code is transmitted from the digital content control device to the RCM server via the network connection such that the RCM server: a) validates the first authentication code, and b) transmits a second authentication code to the digital content control device via the network connection. Using the first authentication code and the second authentication code, a secure two-way communication channel is established between the digital content control device and the RCM server. A set of auxiliary content is received at the digital content control device and from a content provider of a second LAN via the RCM server to be presented with the available programming content on the at least one media device.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2023Date of Patent: October 29, 2024Assignee: Digital Technology Services, LLCInventors: Sri Sankaran, William Baine Morgan Dedman -

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.
