Abstract: A mobile software application implementing “live events,” via which a host of the event may sequentially offer one, two, three, four or more items to a plurality of guests in the event (e.g., via auction, via direct purchase, or via a giveaway). The host's device may obtain and transmit a real-time video stream, which is in turn provided to each guest's device in conjunction with real-time information about the item(s) being offered. Particular techniques further assist the host in sequencing two or more items to be offered in the same live event, thereby avoiding delays and cumbersome user interface interactions that might otherwise be involved in initiating the offering of a next item upon concluding an offering of a previous item.

Abstract: The disclosed playback devices, media playback systems, and/or methods improve upon the media playback experience by selectively reducing audio quality under certain conditions. The reduction of audio quality may be based on one or more aspects of the acoustic environment, such as the number and locations of one or more users, noise levels, playback device locations relative to the acoustic environment, etc. The media playback system may monitor or periodically poll each of one or more playback devices and other devices or sensors in and around an acoustic environment to determine whether there are opportunities to reduce audio quality for one or more playback devices. This reduction in quality allows the media playback system to conserve resources in one or more aspects and, potentially, divert those resources to other aspects for purposes.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method includes in response to an integration tag included in a webpage at a first user interface being executed at a mobile device, receiving a mobile device identifier and a request to retrieve a purchase identifier. The method includes sending a first signal causing a frame to be provided within the webpage at the first user interface. The method includes in response to a first user input, receiving a Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) POST request and determining a uniform resource identifier (URI). The method includes retrieving purchase information and sending a HTTP response message including the URI of the second user interface and the purchase information to deeplink to the second user interface and to cause the second user interface to be rendered at the mobile device with the purchase information pre-populated in an input field of a text message.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a cabin interior, a dashboard located in the cabin interior, and a desk supported on the dashboard and movable between a stowed position on the dashboard and a deployed position extending outward from the dashboard, the desk comprising a plurality of interconnected panels having arms configured to engage a track to bend around at least a portion of the dashboard, and wherein the desk operably moves along the track when moved between the stowed position and the deployed position.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is methods and systems for providing different views to a viewer. One particular embodiment includes a method including providing, to a neural network, a plurality of 2D images of a 3D object. The neural network may include a signed distance function based sinusoidal representation network. The method may further include obtaining a neural model of a shape of the object by obtaining a zero-level set of the signed distance function; and modeling an appearance of the object using a spatially varying emission function. In some embodiments, the neural model may be converted into a triangular mesh representing the object which may be used to render multiple view-dependent images representative of the 3D object.
