Patent number: 11962860Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include systems for generating personalized avatar reactions during live video broadcasts. For example, the systems and methods described herein can access a social networking system user's profile to identify an avatar associated with the social networking system user. The systems and methods can generate an avatar reaction by modifying one or more features of the avatar based on a corresponding emoticon reaction. Once generated, the social networking system user can select the avatar reaction for addition to an ephemeral reaction stream associated with a live video broadcast. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Meta Platforms Technologies, LLCInventors: David Ray Chen, King Hao Chen, Gian Paolo Pile Cruz, Michael Groseclose, Aaron Sidney Kaufer, Caio Mendonca Yassoyama, Xiao Chen, Naga Ramesh Kamisetti, Jonathan Zhang, Jay Quin, Dong Li, Zachary Rude, Gregory Reiner, Anthony Samaha, Hwa Young Jung, Eman Ashour Zomrawy Mohammed, Michael Sheppard Horowitz, Abhishek Jain, Erik Weiss, Xianda Wei, James Matthew Ryburn, Mireille Gonthier

Patent number: 10302446Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide several novel methods for generating a navigation presentation that displays a device navigating a route on a map. The method of some embodiments uses a virtual camera that, based on detected changes in the navigation context, dynamically modifies the way it captures portions of the map to produce different navigation scenes in the navigation presentation. To generate the navigation scenes, the method of some embodiments (1) identifies different sets of attributes that describe the different navigation contexts at different times during the navigation presentation, and (2) uses these different sets of attributes to identify different styles for operating the virtual camera. In some embodiments, the method uses an identified style to specify the virtual camera's positional attributes, which, in turn, define the portions of the map that the virtual camera identifies for rendering to produce several navigation scenes for a period of time (e.g.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2016Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Justin M.

Publication number: 20180349451Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can present related points of interest in search results and/or on a map display. For example, the computing device can receive input specifying search parameters. The computing device can obtain search results, including points of interest, associated with the search parameters. The computing device can present the search results such that related points of interest are grouped and/or presented near each other. For example, if a point of interest (e.g., area of interest) corresponds to a geographical area, then the computing device can group the area of interest with other points of interest related to the area of interest. Similarly, when an area of interest is presented on a map display, the geographic area related to the area of interest can be highlighted and related points of interest can be represented on the map display.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 25, 2018Publication date: December 6, 2018Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Alexander J.
