Patent №: 11842411 (December 12, 2023) – Location-based virtual avatars. Embodiments of the present disclosure enhance electronic messaging and imaging software by using location sensor data from users’ devices to identify their activities and create customized media content. This content, including images and videos, can be shown on the user’s device and shared with others through SMS, MMS texts, and emails.

Kannan Achan

Senior Director, Personalization and Recommendations at Walmart Global Tech.

Patent №: 11842375 (December 12, 2023) – Systems and methods for determining price bands and user price affinity predictions using machine learning architectures and techniques.

This patent focuses on developing a system capable of determining price bands for particular item types and generating predictions about user preferences based on their interactions with these price bands. This innovative approach allows for targeted pricing strategies and enhanced user customization.

Tyler Sylvain Locke

Cofounder & CTO at Agrology.

Patent №: 11842331 (December 12, 2023) –Network of trust for bill splitting.

A device with a processor, wireless transceiver, and non-transitory memory can perform several functions. When instructed, the processor enables the device to send a transaction sharing request to nearby user devices. Upon receiving sharing confirmations, it generates a transaction request including details and payment share from the device’s account. This request is then sent to a transaction service for completion.

Jun Ma

Principal Engineer/Manager at Qualcomm.

Patent №: 11843495 (December 12, 2023) – Guard interval based waveform. This patent focuses on generating a discrete Fourier transform (DFT) waveform using separate inputs such as data content, a guard interval (GI) sequence, and tail suppression samples. By incorporating advanced techniques like inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) operations and tail suppression signals, this innovation aims to improve the efficiency and reliability of wireless communication in various scenarios.
