Appl. No.:

7/258917

Inventors:

Keith Roberts - Canyon Country CA
Thomas A. McConnell - La Crescenta CA

International Classification:

B65D 8567

US Classification:

206389

Abstract:

The film container is particularly adapted for roll film and includes a closed bottom open topped receptacle and a removable open bottom, closed top cap defining therebetween one or a pair of central spaces in which a film roll is held. The receptacle and/or cap has tapered sidewalls so that the cap and receptacle slidingly fit together and releasably lock and seal. The container may also include one or more indicators on the outer surface of the sidewall thereof which indicate whether the film roll inside the container is exposed or unexposed. The indicators may be, for example, an arrow on one of the receptacle and cap alignable with the words "exposed" and "unexposed", or symbols thereof, on the other of the receptacle and cap, or a single ridge matingly receivable on the receptacle or cap in either one of a spaced pair of labelled grooves on the other of the receptacle and cap. Colored ridges of the same or different configuration can be subsituted for the two grooves and ridge. Alternatively, a window in the receptacle sidewall can be provided through which the words "exposed" and "unexposed", or symbols thereof, on the cap sidewall can be separately viewed.

International Classification:

H04L 12/26
H04L 12/18
H04L 12/58
H04W 4/021

Abstract:

A computing system can implement an on-demand transport service by determining utilization conditions for a plurality of sub-regions of a geographic region. The utilization condition for each sub-region can correspond to a number of available drivers within the sub-region as compared to a number of transport requests comprising pickup locations within the sub-region. Based on the utilization condition for a given sub-region exceeding the predetermined utilization threshold, the computing system can transmit data to the computing devices of a plurality of drivers to display a geofence feature, defined by three or more location data points, that encompasses the given sub-region, and a notification indicating that the given sub-region has a utilization condition that exceeds the predetermined utilization threshold.

International Classification:

H04L 12/26

Abstract:

A computing system can manage a notification database that stores notifications for drivers of a transportation service. The computing system can interface with at least one third party resource to receive event data corresponding to a given event. For a given time interval, the system can selectively notify drivers about the given event at a corresponding event location by determining a utilization condition for a sub-region of the event location and selecting, from the set of notifications, a notification for the sub-region of the event location based on the utilization condition. The system can select a set of driver devices to receive the selected notification based at least in part on the current location of each driver device in the selected set of driver devices relative to the event location, and transmit the selected notification to the selected set of driver devices.

Thomas McConnell - San Francisco CA, US

Assignee:

Uber Technologies, Inc. - San Francisco CA

International Classification:

H04L 29/08
H04L 12/26

Abstract:

A system and method for providing notifications is described. The system accesses a notification database that stores a plurality of notification entries. Each notification entry includes notification text, location information, and condition information. For each of a plurality of devices, information is received that includes a current location of that device and a current status associated with that device. At least one device is determined to meet the condition information of a notification entry based on the received information. A notification corresponding to the notification entry is transmitted to the at least one device.
