  • Patent number: 10809879
    Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying a simplified version of a modification of a media content item on a mobile device are provided. The mobile device can receive, via a user interface presented on the mobile device, a request for a desired modification of an original media content item. The mobile device can perform a simplified version of the desired modification of the original media content item. The mobile device can present a preview of the modified media content item in the user interface. The mobile device can transmit, to another computing device, the original media content item with the request for the desired modification.

  • Publication number: 20190354960
    Abstract: A membership management system automatically manages user account memberships for a user. Based on information that the user provides to the membership management system, for example, the membership management system determines a user identifier for the user, such as a telephone number. The membership management system then communicates the user identifier to a merchant, which identifies membership account information for the user from the user identifier. For example, the membership management system employs the user's telephone number to identify an account of the user such as loyalty account. The merchant then provides the user's membership information to the membership management system, which then associates the user's membership information with a record for the user. By repeating this process, for example, the membership management system can—on behalf of the user—automatically associate multiple user membership accounts with a user record, such as a digital wallet of the user.

  • Patent number: 10008242
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods to synchronize recordings between content recording devices. A method may include establishing a synchronized recording relationship with a second content recording device. The method may further include capturing a first recording and periodically inserting a first set of markers in the first recording at a first set of points of time. A second recording may be captured by the second content recording device and a second set of markers are inserted in the second recording at a second set of points of time. The first recording and the second recording may be temporally aligned based on a first marker of the first set of markers and a second marker of the second set of markers. The first marker and the second marker have a matching type and corresponding to a common point in time in the first recording and the second recording.

  • Patent number: 9407824
    Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating content capturing on a mobile device are provided. The current position of a mobile device is identified during a content capturing preparation stage. The current position of the mobile device can correspond to a first position or a second position. The first position is a preferred position for capturing content as compared to the second position. When the current position of the mobile device corresponds to the second position, a prompt can be provided on the mobile device to instruct a user of the mobile device to move the mobile device to the first position.

  • Publication number: 20150254448
    Abstract: Described herein are techniques related to verifying human use of electronic systems. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope and meaning of the claims. A user-interaction module obtains a user's request to access and/or utilize an electronic system. A plain-text call generator in conjunction with a randomizer generates a random plain-text call. A modifier rule generator in conjunction with the randomizer generates a modifier rule. The user-interaction module transmits the random plain-text call and the random modifier rule to the user and obtains a response from the user. A comparison module compares the response by the user with an expected response and informs a verification module of the result. The verification module indicates a denial of access if the obtained response and expected response differ, and grants access if the obtained response and expected response match.

  • Publication number: 20150169144
    Abstract: A method for presenting survey questions and response options to survey respondents includes determining response option locations on the GUI for display of two or more graphical objects, each graphical object including at least a selectable response option for the closed-ended question, where the two or more graphical objects are centered along more than one vertical axis or horizontal axis. The method includes identifying two or more graphical objects each including at least a selectable response option to the closed-ended question. The method also includes retrieving the two or more identified graphical objects, and randomly populating the response option locations with the retrieved two or more graphical objects.

  • Patent number: 9030293
    Abstract: Methods and devices for presenting a secure passcode system to a user are disclosed. The methods and devices may include a security prompt displayed to a user, wherein the prompt comprises a sequence of passcode elements. The passcode elements may comprise both response-eligible and response-ineligible passcode elements. The security prompt may receive an input from a user and determine whether the response is correct. A correct response may include each of the response-eligible passcode elements and none of the response-ineligible passcode elements. If a correct response is received, the security prompt may permit further access to a function.
