Abstract: Features relating to vaporizer devices configured to allow for operational mode selection are provided. User controlled actions with respect to cartridge removal from and insertion into a cartridge receptacle of a vaporizer body provide for selection of an operational mode. A plurality of operational modes of a vaporizer device are defined and are arranged in a sequence. Each user controlled action of removing a cartridge from and inserting the cartridge into a cartridge receptacle results in incrementing through the operational modes of the sequence. For each user controlled action of removing and inserting the cartridge, the vaporizer device outputs feedback indicative of a current operational mode of the sequence. By outputting an animation and/or haptic feedback, the user is informed of a position in the sequence of operational modes, and the user is provided with a streamlined process for selecting an operational mode reflective of a desired experience.

Abstract: To restore context information about a clip that was sampled from a broadcast program, the clip is identified by matching a digital fingerprint of the clip against a database of known digital fingerprints taken from broadcast programs. If the clip can be identified, it is then associated with information about the matching broadcast program. The loss of context data about the clip obtained from a broadcast program is thus remedied, enabling media content available online to be more useable for a variety of purposes, such as media searching, automatic broadcast attribution, and targeting advertisements.

Abstract: A media identification system generates reference fingerprints for known media samples and stores the reference fingerprints in a reference database. The media identification system uses the reference fingerprints to match a fingerprint generated from an unknown media sample to identify that unknown sample. When storing new reference fingerprints in the reference database, partitions of the database are selected to balance the search loads on the database when it is used by the media identification system. For example, the selected partitions may be determined based at least in part on the access rates of the partitions by the media identification system. New reference fingerprints will tend to be placed in partitions that have relatively lower access rates that the other partitions, which will tend to balance the search loads on the partitions by the media identification system.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method serves content to a device. The method includes identifying a characteristic of content displayed with a first device. Through the use of a processor, the characteristic is compared with a campaign constraint of an advertising campaign that includes an advertisement. The method includes transmitting the advertisement to a second device for display when the characteristic satisfies the campaign constraint.
