What Technologies are covered by Jack Dorsey’s Patents?

Technology area covered by Jack Dorsey Patents

Design Patent filed by Dorsey is related to a Display screen with a GUI (Graphical User Interface).

Patents related to Messaging System talks about distributing messages independently of the sending or receiving devices.

Electronic communication is usually limited to devices or message types that are similar. When a user sends an SMS message from their mobile phone, the sender specifies the recipient’s phone number, and the recipient receives the message on their phones. While some communication across devices or message types is possible, there are still substantial limits.

Sending SMS messages through a web-based interface, for example, is possible, as is sending SMS messages from a cell phone to an e-mail account. However, these functionalities are frequently provider-specific (for example, to send SMS messages to that specific provider’s mobile phone service, i.e., Verizon), and do not provide more generally usable cross-device communication capabilities. This invention provides for device-independent point-to-multipoint communication, which is advantageous.

Patents related to Advertisement cover systems and methods for determining the occurrence of a location-based event by obtaining information from one or more sellers.

Farmers markets, food truck gatherings, fairs, and other location-based events have proven to be a cost-effective means of bringing shoppers and sellers together all over the world. However, because such events are not always permanent, potential buyers may not be aware of them and hence this may result in lost opportunities for both sellers and buyers. Therefore the information about the event may be accessed by a mobile device of a potential buyer or via a web directory with the help of this innovation.

Of all the patents filed by Dorsey, majority of them talk about Payments. Jack is a big believer in the future of money, and he frequently speaks on fintech at industry events. As the co-founder of Block (earlier Square), he has revolutionised mobile payments through its innovative card reader device. The corporation intends to branch out beyond payments and into new technologies such as blockchain.

It is working on cryptocurrency hardware wallets. The company would provide users with a mobile app, which when paired with the wallet, would allow users to manage their bitcoin transactions. The wallet will enable fingerprint sensors for transactions. The hardware component of the wallet will use a rechargeable lithium polymer battery and USB-C port to power the device.
