Patent number: 11979325Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method of dynamically scaling a hub cluster in a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) based on particular traffic statistics, the hub cluster being located in a datacenter of the SD-WAN and allowing branch sites of the SD-WAN to access resource of the datacenter by connecting to the hub cluster. A controller of the SD-WAN receives, from the hub cluster, traffic statistics centrally captured at the hub cluster. The controller then analyzes these statistics to identify traffic load fluctuations, and determines that a number of hubs in the hub cluster should be adjusted based on the identified fluctuations. The controller adjusts the number of hubs in the hub cluster based on the determination.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2022Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: VMware LLCInventors: Gopa Kumar, Navaneeth Krishnan Ramaswamy, Murtaza Zafer

Patent number: 11949891Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing viewers of streamed video content with the option to view alternative video content in which alternative tone maps are applied to respective regions of interest. In some embodiments, the streamed video content is divided into slices, and alternative tone maps are applied to respective regions of interest within the slices. When a server receives a request from a client for alternative tone mappings of different regions, slices with the appropriate mapping may be assembled on demand and delivered to the client in a single video stream. Tone mappings may be used, for example, to highlight particular objects, such as players in a sporting event captured in the streamed video content.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2022Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: InterDigital Madison Patent Holdings, SASInventors: Jeffrey Allen Cooper, Kumar Ramaswamy, Ralph Neff

Patent number: 11765406Abstract: Systems and methods are described for enabling a consumer of streaming video to obtain different views of the video, such as zoomed views of one or more objects of interest. In an exemplary embodiment, a client device receives an original video stream along with data identifying objects of interest and their spatial locations within the original video. In one embodiment, in response to user selection of an object of interest, the client device switches to display of a cropped and scaled version of the original video to present a zoomed video of the object of interest. The zoomed video tracks the selected object even as the position of the selected object changes with respect to the original video. In some embodiments, the object of interest and the appropriate zoom factor are both selected with a single expanding-pinch gesture on a touch screen.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2018Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: InterDigital Madison Patent Holdings, SASInventors: Kumar Ramaswamy, Jeffrey Allen Cooper, John Richardson, Ralph Neff

Patent number: 10956766Abstract: Systems and methods are described for enabling a client device to request video streams with different bit depth remappings for different viewing conditions. In an embodiment, information indicating the availability of additional remapped profiles is sent in a manifest file. Alternative bit-depth remappings may be optimized for different regions of interest in the image or video content, or for different viewing conditions, such as different display technologies and different ambient illumination. Some embodiments based on the DASH protocol perform multiple depth mappings at the encoder and also perform ABR-encoding for distribution. The manifest file contains information indicating additional remapping profiles. The remapping profiles are associated with different transformation functions used to convert from a higher bit-depth to a lower bit-depth.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2017Date of Patent: March 23, 2021Assignee: Vid Scale, Inc.Inventors: Kumar Ramaswamy, Jeffrey Allen Cooper
