International Classification:

H04L 29/06
G06F 21/56
G06F 21/52

Abstract:

A system for suspending a computing device suspected of being infected by a malicious code is configured to receive a signal to initiate a suspension procedure of the computing device. The system captures states of instructions that are being executed by a processor of the computing device, where the instructions comprise the malicious code. The system prioritizes the operation of a kill switch button over the instructions being executed by the processor. The system sends notification signals to servers managing a user account associated with a user currently logged in at the computing device, indicating that the computing device is suspected of having been infected by the malicious code. In response to sending the notification signals to the servers, the user account is suspended. The system terminates network connections of the computing device such that the computing device is disconnected from other devices.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/06
H04L 29/06
H04L 29/08
G06T 19/00

Abstract:

An augmented reality system that includes an augmented reality user device. The augmented reality user device includes a display for overlaying virtual objects onto objects in a real scene and a camera. The augmented reality user device includes a processor implementing a virtual assessment engine and a virtual overlay engine. The virtual assessment engine authenticates the user and identifies a user identifier for the user. The virtual assessment engine captures an image and performs object recognition on the image to identify products in a cart. The virtual assessment engine sends a token to a remote server, receives new account offers for the user from the server, and presents the offers as virtual objects overlaid with the products in the cart.

International Classification:

G06F 9/44
H04L 29/06
H04L 29/08
G06F 3/14
G06F 3/01

Abstract:

A system comprises a server, a first user device, and a second user device. The server stores a virtual document, virtual assistant information that provides an overview and input information for the virtual document, and virtual handoff information. The virtual handoff information includes at least a portion of the virtual assistant information, user input for the virtual document, and location information associated with the location of the virtual document. The first user device displays the virtual document and at least a portion of the virtual assistant information. The first user device receives a request to initiate a session with a live assistant. The server generates a first virtual handoff token using the virtual handoff information and communicates the virtual handoff token to the second user device associated with the live assistant.

Abstract:

An augmented reality system includes a server, a first augmented reality user device for a first user and a second augmented reality user device for a second user. The server includes session information for a session with a first user. The first augmented reality user device receives the session information and generates a display using the session information. The server generates an invitation token to the second user, the invitation token including the session information. The second reality user device receives the invitation token and generates a virtual overlay using the session information.

Abstract:

An augmented reality system includes a first user device, a server, and an augmented reality user device. The first user device displays a virtual document during a first session and receives user input for the virtual document. The server stores session handoff information that includes the user input and location information indicating a location of the virtual document. The server generates a session handoff token using the session handoff information. The augmented reality user device receives the first session handoff token and generates a display based, at least in part, on the session handoff token.

Abstract:

An augmented reality system that includes an augmented reality user device. The augmented reality user device includes a display for overlaying virtual objects onto objects in a real scene, a camera, and a global position system sensor. The augmented reality user device includes a processor implementing an object recognition engine, a virtual assessment engine, and a virtual overlay engine. The object recognition engine identifies tangible products from an image. The virtual assessment engine authenticates the user, identifies a user identifier for the user, and identifies a vendor based on the geographic location of the user. The virtual assessment engine captures an image and performs object recognition on the image to identify products in a cart. The virtual assessment engine sends a token to a remote server, receives new account offers for the user from the server, and presents the offers as virtual objects overlaid with the products in the cart.
