  • Publication number: 20100077004
    Abstract: Systems and methods for disseminating data to users and enabling user customization of the data are disclosed herein. Access to the database is provided to one or more user devices, which are usable to select one or more items of data. Upon receiving a selection of one or more items of data, one or more customized notes can be received from a user device and stored in association with the selected data. Each note can be provided with a designation which selectively controls whether viewing of the note is permitted to all other users, or whether viewing of the note is restricted to the user from which it originated or users within a selected user group. A note screen containing all viewable notes associated with a selected item of data can thereby transmitted to the user device.

  • Patent number: 7561159
    Abstract: A method for controlling an animation timeline comprising the steps of determining the three-dimensional assets of the data in the animation timeline and, if required, converting the data dimensionally, cleaning up the data in the animation timeline, building a mesh for the data in the animation timeline, setting up a scene for the data in the animation timeline, animating the scene for the data for creating animated data, publishing the three-dimensional content of the scenes for the data in the animation timeline, creating an appropriate interface for the data in the animation timeline, synchronizing a soundtrack to the animated data, incorporating additional features to the animated data, and combining the animated data such that the data is mixed, HTML prepared and Java script adapted whereby the method provides a self-contained object.

In another embodiment of the present invention a method of synchronizing and controlling a source animation with a plurality of target animations with all the animations on the same web page is provided. In yet another embodiment of the present invention a method of synchronizing and controlling a source animation in association with a parent web page with a target animation in association with a child web page where the source animation is in operative association with the target animation is provided. The synchronization and coordination of the target animation with the source animation accurately reflects the change or changes in the source animation in the target animation and thereby enhances the proficiency and experience of the user.
