20110022262 | MOTOR VEHICLE ENERGY-SAVING ASSISTANCE SYSTEM - A motor vehicle energy-saving assistance system which helps to save energy and optimize emissions. An electronic device may be permanently installed in the vehicle, or a portable computer containing an energy-saving program may be used. The device or program exchanges data with several vehicle control devices. The vehicle control devices carry out specific driver-assist or vehicle functions and the further data channel provides a connection between the device or the portable computer and the vehicle control device(s). At least one unidirectional wireless, inductive or capacitive data transmission is enabled. A driver display device is controlled by the energy-saving program and the energy-saving program determines the actual condition of the vehicle and the estimated future condition in order to calculate the energy-saving measure(s). A motor vehicle equipped with an interface which provides access to the vehicle onboard bus system is also described. | 01-27-2011 |

20140318596 | DEVICES, SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY COLLECTION - A system for collecting electromagnetic energy is provided. The system can include one or more electromagnetic energy collection devices. An individual device comprises a first electrically conductive layer adjacent to a semiconductor layer. The first electrically conductive layer forms a Schottky barrier to charge flow at an interface between the first electrically conductive layer and the semiconductor layer. A second electrically conductive layer is disposed adjacent to the semiconductor layer and away from the first electrically conductive layer. The second electrically conductive layer forms an ohmic contact with the semiconductor layer. Upon exposure of the device to electromagnetic energy, the first electrically conductive layer generates localized surface plasmon resonances that resonantly interact with the second electrically conductive layer, providing near perfect absorption of light. The absorption of light creates hot electrons in the first layer that cross the Schottky barrier to drive an external load. | 10-30-2014 |

20130317900 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING REWARD PROGRAMS AS AN ELECTRONICALLY MEDIATED SERVICE - A method and system include a server module that provides reward as a service to customers via an electronics communications network. The customers then use separate and customized reward system software authorizations to generate, manage and issue reward account information to recipients. The deployment of the invented software may be accomplished by means of a plurality of client software operating on separately addressable client machines. The server module may be adapted to offer distinguishable groups of reward choices via different software interfaces. The invented method optionally offers an application program interface that enables communication between each configurable and configured client software and a rewards application server. The optional rewards application server is adapted to directly or indirectly fulfill reward issuance requests. | 11-28-2013 |
20140025565 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EMBEDDING FINANCIAL-VALUE ACCOUNT PROVISIONING AND MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONALITY WITHIN A DATABASE ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - A method and system are provided for integrating a the generation and communication of digitized data associated with a monetary credit account, such as a gift card account, with an account management suite, such as a sales automation system or a customer relationship management system. The invented method allows a user of an electronically accessible data base to create an assigned-value account that is pre-authorized for use with at least one designated merchant, credit card network, debit card network or financial services provider. The user may select from among a plurality of primary merchants, wherein the identification of the assigned-value account includes a branding association of a single primary merchant. Access to the established assigned-value account may be furnished to a beneficiary by an electronic communications network, whereby the beneficiary may receive and/or provide identity information required and sufficient to enable access to the assigned-value account. | 01-23-2014 |

20120260215 | PUSH NOTIFICATIONS FOR UPDATING MULTIPLE DYNAMIC ICON PANELS - The present application is directed to push notifications that can be used to dynamically update multiple icon panels. For example, the push notifications can be used to update two or more icon panels associated with the same application or two or more panels (i.e., sides) of a three-dimensional icon. In one embodiment, one or more push notifications can be used to independently update content on the panels. In another embodiment, a user can choose settings to assign panels that are to be updated using push notifications. A third party server can be automatically informed of an identification for the panel so that future push notifications incorporate the identification information. | 10-11-2012 |
