A sampling of asserted patents in recent litigations.
5 patents asserted. Automated optimization for pairing entities in auctions enhances economic surplus and minimizes opportunity costs. The method uses inferential targeting parameters and characteristic data for precise matching. Benefits include efficient resource allocation and improved decision-making in competitive environments.
3 patents asserted. The earth-boring tool features shearing cutting elements with planar faces and gouging cutting elements with non-planar faces, enhancing material removal efficiency. The gouging elements are positioned to crush and gouge formation material after shearing, optimizing drilling performance. The design ensures improved durability and cutting precision under applied rotational force.
1 patent asserted. An apparatus facilitates achieving a plank position by providing an arm support pad and hand grip connected to a tubular frame. The frame ensures stability and proper alignment for the user, while the contact surface engages the ground for secure placement. This design enhances exercise efficiency and reduces strain during plank exercises.
2 patents asserted. A headlamp features selectively activated light sources to illuminate a combined view area wider than individual sources. Multiple lighting modes allow tailored illumination for diverse environments. The design enhances peripheral vision coverage, improving safety and usability in low-light conditions.
4 patents asserted. Floating lines and electrostatic discharge circuitry prevent electrical leakage in LCD, enhancing durability and reducing defect risks. Improved electricity consumption ensures lower current use for reliable operations. Innovative floating state configurations block currents from common line to keep LCD devices efficient.
1 patent asserted. A method allowing offline commerce transactions using unique barcodes for personal identification is provided. Users can convert a personal number, like a phone or credit card number, into a distinguishable barcode enabling quick storage and identification for purchases. This invention promotes secure and seamless offline transactions, enhancing consumer convenience and vendor transparency.
