  • Patent number: 9110627
    Abstract: A system for displaying information on a display screen of a computing device, where the digital content is of the size that exceeds the display screen size for display has a display logic that parses the digital content into multiple screen views, each screen view is sized for the screen and an orientation, and stores these multiple screen views in the memory. The display logic selects and displays a single screen view of the multiple screen views on the screen overlaid with a transparent miniature view map of the multiple screen views with the view map highlighting the specific screen view being displayed. Touch-selecting a specific screen view from the view map brings up that view for display from the storage memory, with an updated view map, enabling a user to simultaneously see a view of the digital content and the size of the content.

  • Publication number: 20150227917
    Abstract: A payment card that facilitates use of a plurality of bankcards of a customer, at a point of sale terminal has a payment card with a front side and a backside with a substrate, the substrate encodes a customer identifier as a payment card data that is without a bankcard data, and maps the customer to a plurality of bankcards data in a third party system database. The payment card is enabled to be used at a merchant point-of-sale (POS) terminal with a customer entered PIN, enabling the POS terminal to transfer a payment authorization request record incident to a sales transaction, from the POS to a merchant gateway for routing to a card-issuing banks, thereby enabling use of the payment card in lieu of the customer bankcards at the merchant POS terminal.

  • Publication number: 20150213426
    Abstract: A merchant sales terminal sends a consolidated receipt record of a customer's transaction to a consolidated receipt system in a server database for access by consumer, advertiser, and data miner/researcher. The receipt record is transferred via the internet immediately after the transaction is approved and authorized, to the online server system know as the consolidated receipt system. Here consumers can access their purchase records including merchant name, total amount, and goods/services bought. Furthermore, here also data miners can research sales of a given product/type of product/brand or sales of a merchant/industry/sector/etc.

  • Patent number: 9088595
    Abstract: A system of enhanced global computer network security provides for a globally unique human signature code that is provided in the header of a data packet and that is used to uniquely identify a sender of a data packet in a global computer network. The signature code is of the form that identifies the source as an owner of the server that has control over the server that originated the data packet. The signature code includes, (i) a caller id of a mobile telephone provided by a cellular telephone network, (ii) time and date of a call to a key server, (iii) cellular network identification of the geographic location of the caller, and (iv) a random code.

  • Publication number: 20150172450
    Abstract: A vehicle safety function is installed and operative in the vehicle electronics. The vehicle function is implemented via a texting-safety logic inside the vehicle electronics. The texting-safety logic when the vehicle exceeds a threshold speed outputs an RF signal with a texting-safety code. The texting-safety code is picked up by a smart phone in the vehicle to alert the driver about the danger of texting and/or disable the texting feature in the phone while the vehicle is being driven.

  • Publication number: 20150063568
    Abstract: A random wave envelope is created from a set of bounded random numbers by additively combining a triangle, a square and a sine wave. The random wave envelope is then used to create a sequence of wave random numbers from the wave envelope, which are used to generate random-variant keys for encryption in place of the pre-placed encryption key. An ambiguity envelope is thus created over the transmission of data packets as random-variant-keys are used that are distinct and separate for each packet and may also be distinct and separate for each incoming and outgoing packet. The random-variant keys are only created at the time of the actual use for encrypting or decrypting a data packet and not before and then discarded after one time use. The random-variant keys may be used in wireless network using wireless access points, cellular phone and data networks and ad hoc mobile wireless networks.

  • Patent number: 8963844
    Abstract: A user interface in handheld devices has a bounded touch screen control surface that is operable by a thumb tip and is oversized to the size of a thumb tip. The touch screen control surface is approximately sized to be around a ¾ inch square less or more and is partitioned into touch areas. The touch areas may include five overlapping areas of a top area, a bottom area, a left area, a right area and a center area for a simpler user interface control surface. There may be nine separate areas, including one center area and eight surrounding areas. When the thumb tip is placed on any one of these area and moved in a straight line or in a circular line by sliding action between different areas of these nine areas can provide a large number of navigation control functions.
