  • Patent number: 11475097
    Abstract: A system and method for creating a web page or web site including dynamically-generating content, such as a forum, using a framing layout and a series of modules arrangeable within. An interface allows the selection and placement of modules of various types in a simulation of a web page, and configuration data for each module may be set. A layout, or plurality of possible layouts, defines sections into which the modules may be placed. Pages may be organized in a hierarchy such that features of a template page are applied to any page underneath it in the hierarchy. The interface or other component of the system may further allow for the development of additional modules and layouts to be added to the available selection.

  • Patent number: 11474926
    Abstract: Method, system, and programs for measuring user engagement with content items. In one example, a query is received. A set of content items related to the query is obtained. A presentation of at least one content item of the set of content items is provided on a user interface. A user activity related to the at least one content item is determined. An amount of time between a time at which the presentation of the at least one content item is provided on the user interface and a time at which the user activity occurred is determined.

  • Patent number: 11443390
    Abstract: Various systems and methods are provided for accessing and traversing one or more complex data structures and generating a functional user interface that can enable non-technical users to quickly and dynamically generate detailed reports (including tables, charts, and/or the like) of complex data. The user interfaces are interactive such that a user may make selections, provide inputs, and/or manipulate outputs. In response to various user inputs, the system automatically calculates applicable time intervals, accesses and traverses complex data structures (including, for example, a mathematical graph having nodes and edges), calculates complex data based on the traversals and the calculated time intervals, displays the calculated complex data to the user, and/or enters the calculated complex data into the tables, charts, and/or the like. The user interfaces may be automatically updated based on a context selected by the user.

  • Patent number: 11417093
    Abstract: Techniques are described for capturing an image of a document or other type of physical object, and presenting the image in a user interface (UI) with an overlay that includes context information regarding the document or other physical object in the image. An application running on a portable computing device receives an image of the document that is captured using a camera of the device. The application may perform an initial analysis to identify one or more data elements present in the document, such as certain words, phrases, paragraphs, and so forth. The data elements can be uploaded to a remote service that analyzes the data elements and returns context data which is presented as an overlay to the image of the document. The context data can then be presented in an overlay to the presented image of the physical object.

  • Patent number: 11403352
    Abstract: One or more systems and/or methods for providing related content associated with a multi-touch gesture to a user are provided. A multi-touch gesture (e.g., a pinch-in gesture, a pinch-out gesture, etc.) may be received through a user interface of a client device (e.g., smartphone, tablet, television, virtual wall, etc.) associated with a user. The multi-touch gesture may be evaluated to identify an area of interest of the user interface (e.g., a portion of user interface containing content of interest to the user). The area of interest may be evaluated to identify context (e.g., keywords, phrases, associated content, etc.) associated with the area of interest. A search of content may be performed based upon the context to identify related content (e.g., news articles, wide-area network search results, local device search results, etc.) associated with the context. The related content may be provided to the user through the client device.

  • Patent number: 11397976
    Abstract: Durable memento method that enables the storage of data associated with mementos, which are objects that serve to provide a reminder of a person, place, thing, or an event. Embodiments are configured to store and recall data including but not limited to pictures, movies, sounds, text, or other information such as performance data indirectly associated with a memento such as but not limited to a keepsake, souvenir, gift, gift card, medal or award, tool or any combination thereof. One or more embodiments may include a visual and/or machine-readable and/or human-readable code to associate the data with the memento. The durable data may be stored remote from the memento, which prevents obsolescence by securing data robustly. This enables the data to be accessed years later even if the file formats or display technology for the data has changed by that time and even if the original memento has been lost.

  • Patent number: 11320975
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media that resize a graphical user interface design layout using automatically-generated semantic-aware resize constraints. In particular, systems described herein can analyze the semantics of graphical user interface design elements (e.g., including size, position, type, etc.) and relative positions of the design elements (e.g., hierarchy, offsets, nesting, etc.). The disclosed systems utilizes a heuristics system to the analyzed semantics to generate a set of automatically-defined semantic-aware resize constraints for each graphical user interface design interface. The disclosed systems additionally present a design resize interface that enables designer to manually select constraints to be applied to the design elements. The disclosed systems can toggle between applying manually-selected and automatic semantic-aware resize constraints for the design elements.

  • Patent number: 11308672
    Abstract: A telepresence communication uses information captured by a first capture device about a first user and information captured by a second capture device about a second user to generate a first avatar corresponding to the first user and a second avatar corresponding to the second user. A scene can be rendered locally or by a remote server in which the first avatar and the second avatar are both rendered in a virtual space. The first avatar is rendered to move based on movements made by the first user as captured by the first capture device, and the second avatar is rendered to move based on movements made by the second user as captured by the second capture device. The avatars may be realistic, based on avatar templates, or some combination thereof. The rendered scene may include virtual interactive objects that the avatars can interact with.
