20220215273 | USING PREDICTION UNCERTAINTY QUANTIFIER WITH MACHINE LEANING CLASSIFIER TO PREDICT THE SURVIVAL OF A STORAGE DEVICE - The described technology is generally directed towards predicting the survival of a storage device (e.g., a hard disk drive or a solid state drive) to a specified time point, expressed as a confidence score, via a prediction uncertainty quantifier framework with a machine learning classifier. The confidence score corresponds to the likelihood of a storage device surviving until a specified time point (e.g., for n hours). In one implementation, a conformal prediction framework provides the confidence score for a storage device, based on survival rate data predicted using recent telemetry data collected for that storage device by an online semi-parametric Mondrian survival forest classifier. Updated confidence scores based on updated telemetry data can be obtained at various evaluation stages to reevaluate whether to take remedial action with respect to a storage device (e.g., replace the storage device). Multiple storage devices can be ranked by their respective associated confidence scores. | 2022-07-07 |

20220215281 | Optically Heralded Entanglement of Superconducting Systems in Quantum Networks - The typical approach to transfer quantum information between two superconducting quantum computers is to transduce the quantum information into the optical regime at the first superconducting quantum computer, transmit the quantum information in the optical regime to the second superconducting quantum computer, and then transduce the quantum information back into the microwave regime at the second superconducting quantum computer. However, direct microwave-to-optical and optical-to-microwave transduction have low fidelity due to the low microwave-optical coupling rates and added noise. These problems compound in consecutive microwave-to-optical and optical-to-microwave transduction steps. We break this rate-fidelity trade-off by heralding end-to-end entanglement with one detected photon and teleportation. In contrast to cascaded direct transduction, our technology absorbs the low optical-microwave coupling efficiency into the entanglement heralding step. Our approach unifies and simplifies entanglement generation between superconducting devices and other physical modalities in quantum networks. | 2022-07-07 |

The access to the account information is then used to complete the transaction. The account information uses a global architecture such that it can be used with different hardware and software configurations of a connected system. | 2022-07-07 |
20220215366 | USER INTERFACE HANDOFF TO ENABLE FEATURE AT A TERMINAL - In an aspect a computer-implemented method is described. The method may include: causing a point-of-sale terminal processing a transaction to display a machine-readable code, the machine-readable code encoding a web address; receiving a request from a device that scanned the machine-readable code, the request received at the web address and the request including data; determining, based on data encoded in the machine-readable code and data included in the request, that the transaction may be processed using a value-added service; and in response to determining that the transaction may be processed using the value-added service, enabling completion of the transaction using the value-added service. | 2022-07-07 |
20220215367 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE AUTOMATIC CONFIGURATION OF DEVICES BY REMOTE COMMUNICATION WITH A SERVER - A system and method comprising a server that automatically configures and sets up a restaurant's or business' information technology (IT) infrastructure, more specifically relating to point-of-sale devices (POS) and other networked devices such as scanners, tracking displays, and any other device that any business may use. Communication between the networked devices and the server is facilitated by a preconfigured router, wherein after initial communication with the server, the server may update firmware, operating parameters, and software packages of the preconfigured router and other networked devices. | 2022-07-07 |
20220215368 | ELECTRONIC RECEIPT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - A distributed computer system includes a central server, a computing device of a user, and point-of-sale terminals. The central server is configured to assign a global user ID to a user and store, in association with the global user ID, local user IDs. The computing device is configured to generate and display a code symbol representing at least one user ID. A point-of-sale terminal is configured to scan the displayed code symbol and code symbols of merchandise being purchased, and generate transaction information. A local server is configured to transfer the transaction information from the point-of-sale terminal to the central server. When the transaction information includes a local user ID, a point total of the user is updated based on the transaction information and transmitted to the computing device. The central server stores the transaction information, which is received from the local server, in association with the global user ID. | 2022-07-07 |
20220215369 | Integrated Automatic Retail System and Method - An automatic retail system including a server executing an inventory management application, a weight sensitive pallet sending a report to the inventory management application upon removal of an item from the weight sensitive pallet; a weight sensitive shelving system receiving items removed from the pallet and for storing the items, the weight sensitive shelving sending a report to the inventory management application upon receipt or removal of an item; and an automatic retail device sensing the removal of an item. The automatic retail device includes a camera and a display presenting one or more media presentations. The automatic retail device sends a report to the inventory management application upon completion of a sale of the item. | 2022-07-07 |
20220215370 | OFFLOADING A SIGNING OPERATION ON A USER DEVICE - In some implementations, a terminal device may obtain exchange information associated with an exchange initiated at the terminal device. The exchange information may identify a medium used in the exchange. The terminal device may be configured to present a terminal-side user interface for performing a signing operation of the exchange. The terminal device may selectively obtain user information associated with the medium used in the exchange. The user information may identify a user device associated with the medium. The terminal device may transmit, to the user device and based on obtaining the user information, presentation information that identifies content for a user-side user interface for performing the signing operation at the user device. The terminal device may receive, from the user device, signing information associated with a performance of the signing operation at the user device via the user-side user interface. | 2022-07-07 |
20220215371 | STORE SYSTEM - A store system includes a server and a store terminal. The server receives data based on purchased commodities respectively input in a plurality of mobile terminals. The server stores the received data based on the purchased commodities. The store terminal acquires, from the stored data, the data based on the purchased commodity input in any one of the mobile terminals. The store terminal instructs correction of the acquired data. The server executes the instructed correction concerning the stored data. | 2022-07-07 |
