Publication number: 20220368971Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a media server having a processing system including a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate sending a data stream to a display device. The data stream may include an identification thereof. Upon receiving the identification from a user, the media server associates the data stream with the user. The media server may send to the user, a listing of the media services to which the user has subscribed. Upon receiving, from the user, a selection of a selected media service, the media server streams the selected media service to the display device over the data stream. The data stream may be controlled with the user for as long as the media server detects the user in a vicinity of the display device. Other embodiments are disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 20, 2022Publication date: November 17, 2022Applicant: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Mark Easley, Vivek Mhatre, Thomas A.

Publication number: 20220294785Abstract: Concepts and technologies are disclosed for an identity vault service. According to one aspect disclosed herein, an identity vault service system can collect self-attested and operator-attested user information. The operator-attested user information can be associated with a user and a mobile telecommunications service provided to the user by a mobile network operator. The system can create a trusted digital identity of the user based upon the self-attested and operator-attested user information. The system can receive an identity access request from a third party. The request can be for access to at least a portion of the trusted digital identity for use by the third party in performance of an act. The system can send a consent request to a user device and can receive a consent response that indicates whether the user permits access to at least the portion of the trusted digital identity of the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 26, 2022Publication date: September 15, 2022Applicant: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Thomas A.

Publication number: 20080032398Abstract: The present invention provides a feedback controlled bioculture platform for use as a precision cell biology research tool and for clinical cell growth and maintenance applications. The system provides individual closed-loop flowpath cartridges, with integrated, aseptic sampling and routing to collection vials or analysis systems. The system can operate in a standard laboratory or other incubator for provision of requisite gas and thermal environment. System cartridges are modular and can be operated independently or under a unified system controlling architecture, and provide for scale-up production of cell and cell products for research and clinical applications. Multiple replicates of the flowpath cartridges allow for individual, yet replicate cell culture growth and multiples of the experiment models that can be varied according to the experiment design, or modulated to desired cell development of cell culture end-points.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 15, 2007Publication date: February 7, 2008Inventors: Thomas Cannon, Laura Cohn, Peter Quinn

Patent number: 5247166Abstract: A form reader especially for lottery forms with handwritten marks or bar codes includes a drum transport engaging the form, and a stepping motor advances the form circularly along a path around the drum, passing through a linear reading station elongated perpendicularly to the path. A light source illuminates the form at the read station and reflected light is incident on an elongated array of charge coupled device (CCD) light sensors via a focusing lens arrangement. An analog comparator coupled to a serial output of the CCD sensors digitizes encode and encodes each pixel in the elongated array repetitively during transport, sampling the reflectance of the form and defining an X-Y array of pixels. A digital processor coupled to an image memory analyzes the data for predetermined patterns such as handwritten marks, printed reference marks and/or printed bar code or OCR characters on the form.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 1992Date of Patent: September 21, 1993Assignee: Gtech CorporationInventors: Thomas Cannon, Daniel Smith, Mark Bowen

Patent number: 4138066Abstract: A food grinder has an upstanding base unit within which is included an electric motor. A worm-driven gear linkage serves to deliver motion from the motor. Defined in one side of the base unit is a receptacle within which is received a cassette. The cassette includes a food grinding mechanism which receives motion from the linkage so as to operate that mechanism.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1977Date of Patent: February 6, 1979Assignee: Teledyne Industries, Inc.Inventors: Keith M.
