  • Patent number: 11240180
    Abstract: A message providing device includes: a receiver; and a controller. At least first and second operation modes are operations of a software robot program. The program operates on a service exchanging messages between users. In the first mode, a specific service is executed upon reception of a message or a sticker. In the second mode, the specific service is not executed even if the message or the sticker is received. The receiver receives the message or the sticker from the user. When the received message is a first specific message or the received sticker is a first specific sticker, the controller switches the first mode to the second. When the received message is a second specific message different from the first or the received sticker is a second specific sticker which is different from the first, the controller switches the second mode to the first.

  • Patent number: 11216666
    Abstract: Example implementations described herein are directed to systems and methods for anomaly detection through using a segmentation process and an object detection process on images received through a camera system. The segmentation process and object detection process are then matched to detected additive anomalies (e.g., objects added to the environment) and subtractive anomalies (e.g., objects missing from the environment). Based on the type of anomaly detected as well as the underlying object, notifications can be dispatched to the user of the environment or the administrator of the system.
