  • Patent number: 12069116
    Abstract: A method of providing a user interface for a live virtual fan experience on a client device of a user is disclosed. Based on a receiving of a notification from a live event broadcasting platform, a live video feed of the user is communicated to the live event broadcasting platform. Based on a receiving of a notification from the live event broadcasting platform that the live video feed of the user has been selected for integration into a broadcasting of the live event, a notification is caused to be presented in real time in the user interface. Based on a notification from the live event broadcasting platform that the live video feed of the user has been integrated into the broadcasting of the live event, the user interface is caused to be updated in real time to reflect the integrating of the live video feed.

  • Patent number: 11494993
    Abstract: System integrating content in real-time into dynamic 3D scene includes external server including CMS, a device including content integrating engine to process in real-time 3D scenes, and display device to display combined 3D scene output. CMS searches for social media posts on social media servers. Social media posts includes message and URL to media content. Content integrating engine includes content retriever, content queue, 3D scene component processors to process each 3D scene's visual components, scene manager and combiner. Content retriever establishes direct connection to external server, and retrieves URLs from server storage and stores URLs in content queue. Scene manager, at time of low intensity during 3D scene, signals to content retriever to retrieve media content corresponding to URLs in content queue, one scene component processor to process display setting change, or another scene component processor to process media content. Combiner to generate combined 3D scene output.

  • Patent number: 7885833
    Abstract: An interactive system and a method for diagnosing, evaluating and treating the condition of Temporomandibular Disorder, where through a series of steps, consultations, procedures and protocols associated with individual appointments, information is gathered and entered into a database by a user through a personal computing device, which is added to or updated as treatment progresses in future appointments. The information gained during the appointments is used to generate printed or electronic reports, letters and insurance claim forms supporting the services rendered, reduce the errors involved in manual insurance claim form coding, supply consistent and proven successful treatment codes to insure payment, and which seek reimbursement from medical insurance coverage by the dentist as opposed to dental insurance coverage in order to maximize the benefits received and allow the patient to avail themselves of the generally higher coverage limits and lower deductibles associated with medical insurance.

  • Patent number: 6099355
    Abstract: A ruggedized PCMCIA card (PC card) connection adapter device includes a rigid housing having a PC card interface assembly and a external component interface assembly. Each interface assembly extends through an associated exterior surface of the housing, and the assemblies are linked to allow transfer of input/output signals therebetween. The PC card interface assembly includes a linking member sized and shaped to fittingly engage the PC card socket of a host computer. A gasket member disposed on the linking member provides a seal between the PC card socket and the linking member when the connection adapter is in place. The connection adapter also includes a locking means by which the device may be selectively secured to a host computer.

  • Patent number: 5206934
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for conferencing among a plurality of computers is described. A local user receives inputs containing user actions and data for interpretation as to what the user action is with respect to the data and produces user action outputs. An interpreter/encoder interprets and encodes the user action outputs into packets of encoded commands and data related thereto. A communications device sends the encoded information to at least one remote user and the local user itself. An interpreter decoder at each computer interprets and decodes the encoded information specifying an operation to be performed on the data. The operation is then executed at the local user and the remote users. The system is operating system independent and multiple documents and applications may be worked on at the same time by different users.
