  • Publication number: 20240054551
    Abstract: A network based order fulfillment systems having an improved user interface at both a customer device and at an order fulfillment location employee device. Both customer and employee devices scan collect user input and other information using one or more sensors of the user devices to provide proper notifications to both the customer and the employee based on the actions of each. Location information for a customer computing device can be used to continually update ETA and time since arrival information displayed at the employee's computing device.

  • Publication number: 20220335504
    Abstract: A network based order fulfillment system having an improved user interface at devices associated with multiple customers collaborating to place and pick up an order with a retailer. The system allows users of multiple devices to coordinate fulfillment of an order through communication with one or more user devices located at a fulfillment location to fulfill orders placed by users of other user devices. An alternate pickup person having a first user device can be associated with an order placed by a different user having a different user device. The user who placed the order can provide identifying information for the alternate pickup person to authorize the alternate pickup person to pick up the order.

  • Publication number: 20170221152
    Abstract: A water damage mitigation estimation method accepts insurance claim information regarding a water damage insurance claim. The insurance claim information includes a date-of-loss, an insurance-company, insured-information, and a price-book-to-use. The method also accepts structure information regarding the water damage insurance claim. The structure information including square-footage, year-built, central-air-conditioning, foundation-type, construction-type, and number-of-floors. The method accepts loss information regarding the water damage insurance claim, and the loss information includes water-source, anti-microbial, source-location, time-water-stopped, time-respondent-on-site, emergency-time, and affected-area. The method accepts a set of room-information for each water damaged room, each member of the set of room-information includes floor-level, room-dimensions, offset-inset, percent-affected, material-type, and detectable-water-affect.

  • Patent number: 7716712
    Abstract: An adaptive data stream filter removes narrowband interference from the CATV return path prior to these paths being combined in the network. A method for removing narrowband interference from the CATV return path detects potential narrowband interference in real-time and adapts a filter to remove this potential narrowband interference. An exemplary embodiment of the above method uses previously created filters that are combined based on detected interference in an adaptive manner to continually adapt to new interference sources. Another exemplary embodiment of the above method calculates new filter coefficients for the data stream filter based on detected interference. In another embodiment, two filters are operated in a ping-pong manner for each band of interference identified as above threshold. This enables updating of one filter while another filter is performing the data stream filter operation.
