Patent number: 9684432Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for adding and displaying interactive annotations for existing online hosted videos. A graphical annotation interface allows the creation of annotations and association of the annotations with a video. Annotations may be of different types and have different functionality, such as altering the appearance and/or behavior of an existing video, e.g. by supplementing it with text, allowing linking to other videos or web pages, or pausing playback of the video. Authentication of a user desiring to perform annotation of a video may be performed in various manners, such as by checking a uniform resource locator (URL) against an existing list, checking a user identifier against an access list, and the like. As a result of authentication, a user is accorded the appropriate annotation abilities, such as full annotation, no annotation, or annotation restricted to a particular temporal or spatial portion of the video.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2013Date of Patent: June 20, 2017Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Michael Fink, Ryan Junee, Sigalit Bar, Aviad Barzilai, Isaac Elias, Julian Frumar, Herbert Ho, Nir Kerem, Simon Ratner, Jasson Arthur Schrock, Ran Tavory, Virginia Wang, Leora Wiseman, Shanmugavelayutham Muthukrishnan, Mihai Badoiu, Ankur Bhargava, Igor Kofman

Patent number: 9253225Abstract: Community interaction during video viewing is provided. A video hosting website includes videos available for viewing. Users establish lists of friends, who are other users of the video hosting site. When a user logs on, her presence is made known by an interaction engine to her friends that are also logged in to the site. The user's activities are tracked and her friends are notified of those activities. Tracked activities may include viewing a video, rating a video, commenting on a video, uploading a video to the site, and adding a new friend. Friends are notified of these activities in one embodiment through one or more user interface elements. A user can select a user interface element to discover which of her friends are also watching the same video at that time. A user watching a video can summon her online friends to the watch page to watch collaboratively.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 2013Date of Patent: February 2, 2016Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Ryan Junee, Herbert Ho, Yu Pan, Erik Klein, Slave Jovanovski, Julian Frumar, Jasson Arthur Schrock, Richard B.

Patent number: 9066130Abstract: Methods and system for displaying a click-to-buy overlay for an item on a video in a video hosting site. The item is matched to the video according to video metadata and/or rules selected by the video rights holder. If the uploader is not the video rights holder, the video rights holder can choose to monetize the video by selecting Click-to-Buy metadata and/or rules. A viewer of the video can choose between multiple retailers for an item offered in the overlay. The viewer can further navigate between multiple overlays associated with the video while the video is playing.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2013Date of Patent: June 23, 2015Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Florian Buron, Chirayu Krishnappa, BethEllyn McClendon, Jasson Arthur Schrock, Johan Tibell, Thai Tran

Patent number: 8572490Abstract: A system, method and various user interfaces provide an embedded web-based video player for navigating video playlists and playing video content. A website publisher can create and store a video player with customized parameters (e.g., player type, appearance, advertising options, etc.) and can associate the player with a playlist of selected videos. The stored video player is associated with a player ID in a player database and can be embedded in a website using an embed code referencing the player ID. A user interface for the embedded player provides controls for controlling video playback and for controlling the selection of a video from the playlist.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2011Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Gunthar Hartwig, Jasson Arthur Schrock, Nikhil Chandhok, Christian Oestlien, Aaron Kwong Yue Lee

Publication number: 20120320091Abstract: A video server provides video content to a client via a network. At the instruction of the video server, a player at the client contacts an ad server and downloads one or more creatives and a controller file to the client. The controller file indicates how the creative manifests itself in play. The player displays the video content in a display area at the client. The controller file causes the creative to appear as an animated overlay over the video content. User interface elements indicate the point in the video when the creative appears, and allow the user to minimize and replay the creative. The player can also display other creatives, such as a static creative that is associated with the animated creative. A user can select the creative to view additional information about a product advertised by the creative.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2012Publication date: December 20, 2012Applicant: GOOGLE INC.Inventors: Shivakumar Rajaraman, Jasson Arthur Schrock
