  • Methods and systems for a reminder servicer using visual recognition
    Patent number: 9183546
    Abstract: A downloadable reminder application uses object recognition technology to recognize one or more objects appearing on a display screen of the mobile computing device and matches them to a set of known target objects. The downloadable reminder application process any associated trigger conditions for the target object. The downloadable reminder application then sets the future reminder for the target object to activate. The downloadable reminder application when it detects that a mobile computing device is satisfying the trigger condition for a target object for which it has set a future reminder on, then the downloadable reminder application in the mobile computing device fires the future reminder that was set for that target object and provides the alert to the user along with any triggerable contributions associated with that target object.

  • Method and system for increasing frame-display rate
    Patent number: 9185339
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an efficient and cost-effective implementation of a method and system for increasing the frame-display rate of a video display device. Video data is often input to a video-display device in a compressed form that includes encoded and compressed motion vectors. The motion vectors provide information about portions of successive video frames which change in relative position. The motion vectors are decompressed and decoded along with the frames. In certain embodiments of the present invention, a first frame and an accompanying motion-vector table are transmitted from a processing component to a timing-controller component of a video-display device, using which the timing-controller component can generate a second frame that is displayed following display of the first frame.
