Latest Patents

Beall is named on 1 patent: “Optimizing Non-Sequential Parsing of Information Extracted from Machine-Readable Codes.” The invention describes receiving object information through an application programming interface from a requesting computing device. The information may be extracted from a machine-readable code associated with an object or derived from information extracted from that code.

The system applies multiple regular expressions to identify values for fields without requiring the information to be parsed in a fixed sequence. Each expression is configured to identify values for at least one field. For each identified value, the process creates a data object containing the value and information indicating its corresponding field.

Career Highlights

Beall’s listed patent focuses on making the interpretation of machine-readable-code information more flexible. By using field-specific regular expressions and non-sequential parsing, the described approach can organize extracted information into structured data objects.

Collaborations

Beall’s listed coworkers include Christopher Farmer and Ishrat Jahan. His patent is associated with O&M Halyard, Inc.

Conclusion

Michael Beall’s patent work centers on efficiently parsing and structuring information obtained from machine-readable codes.
