Publication number: 20220030040Abstract: A media stream is transmitted from a server device to a client device. The client device (10) transmits set-up request messages (43a), discovery messages (44b) and a play command message (45a). The server receives versions of the set-up request messages 43b), the discovery message (44b) and the play message (45b) with matching identifier in the payloads if the messages. The server device (12) receives the discovery messages (44b) on a predetermined port and stores information recording that the discovery messages (44b) have been received, at least when no corresponding set-up request message 43b has been received before. The server device (12) compares the identifiers from the received set up request message (43b) and the discovery message (44b) according to the information recording reception, at least when the discovery message (44b) has been received before the set-up request message (43b).Type: ApplicationFiled: October 1, 2021Publication date: January 27, 2022Applicant: III Holdings 6, LLCInventor: Raoul Mallart

Patent number: 9412377Abstract: A system and method for enhancing visual representation to individuals participating in a conversation is provided. Visual data for a plurality of individuals participating in one or more conversations is analyzed. Possible conversational configurations of the individuals are generated. Each possible conversational configuration includes one or more pair-wise probabilities of at least two of the individuals. A probability weight is assigned to each of the pair-wise probabilities having a likelihood that the individuals of that pair-wise probability are participating in a conversation. A probability of each possible conversational configuration is determined by combining the probability weights for the pair-wise probabilities of that possible conversational configuration. The possible conversational configuration with the highest probability is selected as a most probable configuration.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2013Date of Patent: August 9, 2016Assignee: III HOLDINGS 6, LLCInventors: Paul M. Aoki, Margaret H. Szymanski, James Thornton, Daniel H. Wilson, Allison G. Woodruff

Patent number: RE47889Abstract: Methods and systems of the present embodiment provide segmenting of connected components of markings found in document images. Segmenting includes detecting aligned text. From this detected material an aligned text mask is generated and used in processing of the images. The processing includes breaking connected components in the document images into smaller pieces or fragments by detecting and segregating the connected components and fragments thereof likely to belong to aligned text.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2016Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: III Holdings 6, LLCInventor: Eric Saund

Patent number: RE48202Abstract: The electric device (1, 100) has a body (2, 101) with a resistor (7, 250) comprising a phase change material being changeable between a first phase and a second phase. The resistor (7, 250) has an electric resistance which depends on whether the phase change material is in the first phase or the second phase. The resistor (7, 250) is able to conduct a current for enabling a transition from the first phase to the second phase. The phase change material is a fast growth material which may be a composition of formula Sb1?cMc with c satisfying 0.05?c?0.61, and M being one or more elements selected from the group of Ge, In, Ag, Ga, Te, Zn and Sn, or a composition of formula SbaTebX100?(a+b) with a, b and 100?(a+b) denoting atomic percentages satisfying 1?a/b?8 and 4?100?(a+b)?22, and X being one or more elements selected from Ge, In, Ag, Ga and Zn.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2016Date of Patent: September 8, 2020Assignee: III Holdings 6, LLCInventors: Martijn Henri Richard Lankhorst, Liesbeth Van Pieterson, Robertus Adrianus Maria Wolters, Erwin Rinaldo Meinders
