Abstract: A graphical user interface (“GUI”) personalization application automatically generates a GUI for a software application. In operation, the GUI personalization application tracks interactions between a user and a first GUI that is associated with the software application and a GUI framework. The GUI personalization application then computes a behavioral simplification for the first GUI based on the interactions and the GUI framework. Subsequently, the GUI personalization application modifies the first GUI based on the behavioral simplification to generate a second GUI for the user that is associated with the software application and the GUI framework. Advantageously, the GUI personalization application can more efficiently and reliably improve the quality of the overall user experience when interacting with the software application across a wider range of users relative to prior art approaches.

Abstract: A system includes a memory configured to store a plurality of tools and a processor configured to use the plurality of tools. The processor uses the plurality of tools to retrieve historical information relating to a storyline, retrieve user information relating to user interactions with the storyline, provide the historical information and the user information for incorporating into the content, and generate the content using the historical information and the user information.

Abstract: An embodiment provides a motorized monopole for a camera, including: a hand-held monopole; a first motor positioned at an end of the hand-held monopole; a first connecting element attached to the first motor; a second motor positioned at an end of the first connecting element; a second connecting element attached to the second motor; a third motor positioned at an end of the second connecting element; and a camera mounting plate attached to the second connecting element by the third motor, where components of the multi-axis gimbal are positioned such that a camera viewing axis, a horizontal image axis, and a vertical image axis of a camera mounted on the camera mounting plate need not be aligned with any of a rotational axis of the first motor, a rotational axis of the second motor, or a rotational axis of the third motor. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: This disclosure presents systems and methods to facilitate user interactions with virtual objects depicted as being present in a real-world space. A representation of a first location in a real-world space may include one or more virtual objects depicted in the representation of the first location as being present in the first location. An orientation of a computing platform physically present at a second location may be obtained. An image may be generated based on one or more of the representation of the first location, the orientation, and/or other information. The image may depict the representation of the first location within a field of view of the real-world space and one or more virtual objects depicted as being present in the first location within the field of view. The user may interact with virtual object depicted as being present in the first location within the field of view.

Abstract: This disclosure presents systems and methods to simulate user presence in a real-world three-dimensional space.

Abstract: There is provided a system and method for providing context-based limited availability commerce options. There is provided a method comprising receiving a sensor data sample corresponding to a segment for an event, matching the sensor data sample to a media record in a media database, the media record including an identity of the event, generating an advertising campaign of limited availability commerce options using a context including the identity of the event and a location of a device, and presenting the advertising campaign on a display of the device. When the event corresponds to a theatrical movie showing, the segment may correspond to the first few measures of a song for an end credit roll, and the sensor data sample may be recorded from a microphone. The commerce options may be limited based on time, location, demographics, user or group participation, and other criteria.
