Filed:

May 4, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/464442

Inventors:

David K. Mathews - Malibu CA, US

Assignee:

NewAer, Inc. - Los Angeles CA

International Classification:

H04M 3/00

US Classification:

455418, 455443, 455507, 4554561

Abstract:

A method for automating actions within a network includes receiving at least one wireless signal from at least one wireless network device; determining identifying information associated with the at least one wireless signal; determining a scanned wireless fingerprint associated based upon the identifying information; matching the scanned wireless fingerprint to a stored wireless fingerprint; and initiating an action in response to matching of the scanned wireless fingerprint to the stored wireless fingerprint.

Assignee:

NEWAER INC. - Los Angeles CA

International Classification:

H04W 12/06

US Classification:

455411

Abstract:

A method for authenticating a user transaction based upon scanned wireless signals is disclosed and includes receiving a wireless fingerprint from a mobile unit associated with a transaction by a user at a location, determining if the received wireless fingerprint matches a stored wireless fingerprint associated with the location, and authorizing the transaction if the received wireless fingerprint matches the stored wireless fingerprint associated with the location. If the location is not known or known as a “bad” location, additional information to authenticate the user or transaction can be requested from the user via a phone call, push notification within an application or a text message.

Inventors:

DAVID K MATHEWS - Malibu CA, US

Assignee:

NEWAER INC. - Los Angeles CA

International Classification:

H04W 4/02

US Classification:

4554566

Abstract:

A method for determining proximity of two or more mobile units within a defined locale is disclosed. Each of the mobile units is operable to scan at least a portion of the locale associated with the scanning one of the mobile units. The presence of the ones of the plurality of wireless devices is detected within the associated portion of the locale, detecting receiving the unique information from the detected ones of the plurality of wireless devices or device IDs. The received information is formed into a wireless fingerprint and transmitted to a server, which has a database of stored wireless fingerprints that are compared to the received fingerprint and a determination made as to the stored wireless fingerprints within the locale. The relative proximity position of the mobile devices associated with stored wireless fingerprints within the locale is then determined and are transmitted to the scanning one thereof.

NEWAER, INC. - Los Angeles CA

International Classification:

H04W 4/02

US Classification:

4554563

Abstract:

A method for discovering the presence of hidden neighbor mobile devices in a common environment is disclosed. A given mobile unit is moved into a common environment with the given mobile device having a unique identifier associated therewith. The common environment is scanned within a scan range associated with the given mobile device. The presence of broadcasting devices scanned by the given mobile device is detected and identification information received therefrom. The received identification information is transmitted to a central location in addition to the unique identifier. The given mobile device receives from the central location information about a hidden mobile unit that is not scannable by the given mobile device, but can scan other broadcast devices in the common environment, which information provides an indication that the hidden mobile unit had previously scanned at least one of the broadcast devices scanned by the given mobile device.
