Assignee:  Pregis (Chicago, IL) with total patents of: 4 (since 2005)
Counsel:  Firm: Fox Rothschild LLP
1st Invent:  Thomas D. Wetsch (Naples, FL)
Inventors:  Genders: F=0, M=2
Abstract:
2000 char max
A conversion apparatus is provided herein. The conversion apparatus includes a cutting member having an edge configured for cutting the dunnage material. The conversion apparatus also includes a biasing member that is located adjacent to the cutting member such that the dunnage material passes between the biasing member and the cutting member. The biasing member operably contacts the dunnage material thereby biasing the dunnage material against the cutting member. The position of the biasing member relative to the cutting member is such that in response to the dunnage material being retracted back into the conversion apparatus the cutting member begins to sever the dunnage material, but in response to the dunnage material traveling in the dispensing direction the cutting member does not begin to sever the dunnage material due to the relative position.

Counsel:  Firm: Foley Lardner LLP
1st Invent:  Daniel Kraus (Port Charlotte, FL)
Inventors:  Genders: F=0, M=2
Abstract:
2000 char max
Integrating virtual tours on digital resources is provided. A system receives a call generated by a client application executed on a client device responsive to a refresh of a digital resource. The system identifies a request for content for display in a content slot on the digital resource having a content slot size. The system transmits, to the client device, a viewer application configured to execute a priority caching function in the content slot. The viewer application downloads, based on the priority caching function and a computing characteristic of the client device, a first portion of a virtual tour. The viewer application renders the first portion of the virtual tour via the content slot. The viewer application establishes a controller that controls rendering of the virtual tour in response to a detection of an interaction on the digital resource outside the content slot.
