Patent number: 11468155Abstract: This invention is directed to an electronic device with an embedded authentication system for restricting access to device resources. The authentication system may include one or more sensors operative to detect biometric information of a user. The sensors may be positioned in the device such that the sensors may detect appropriate biometric information as the user operates the device, without requiring the user to perform a step for providing the biometric information (e.g., embedding a fingerprint sensor in an input mechanism instead of providing a fingerprint sensor in a separate part of the device housing). In some embodiments, the authentication system may be operative to detect a visual or temporal pattern of inputs to authenticate a user. In response to authenticating, a user may access restricted files, applications (e.g., applications purchased by the user), or settings (e.g., application settings such as contacts or saved game profile).Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2021Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Anthony Fadell, Andrew Hodge, Stephan Schell, Ruben Caballero, Jesse Lee Dorogusker, Stephen Zadesky, Emery Sanford

Patent number: 11460984Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods that provide users with efficient and effective user experiences when browsing, selecting, or inspecting content items. More specifically, systems and methods described herein provide users the ability to easily and effectively select multiple content items via a single touch gesture (e.g., swipe gesture). Additionally, systems and methods disclosed herein can allow users to select various content items in a selection interface, preview a content item, and return to the selection interface with the previous selections remaining in tact. Still further, systems and methods described herein allow users to transition between a content graphical user interface and a selection interface based on touch gestures with content items.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2020Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Jan Senderek, Daniel Tobias Wagner, Leonard Fink

Patent number: 11443106Abstract: A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for finding vertically and horizontally aligned cells in a complex table structure. A file or document, such as an HTML file that defines a complex table includes spanning rows and columns is expanded into a two dimensional (2D) array or table with orthogonal rows and columns, where the spanning rows and columns included cells with copied values or object references. The expanded 2D array or table can be deduplicated row or column wise to determine header alignment of the table.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2018Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Kyle G. Christianson, Hassan Nadim, Joshua S. Allen, Andrew R. Freed
