  • Patent number: 12045441
    Abstract: An electronic device, method, and computer program product provide of removing less relevant secondary content (e.g., advertisements, related links, comments, reviews, etc.) prior to generating a static or dynamic screen shot image of the more relevant primary content of an electronic page. A controller of an electronic device executes an application to present, via a display, at least a portion of an electronic page. In response to receiving an input, via at least one input device of the electronic device, to capture a screen shot of the display, the controller identifies primary spatial portion(s) and secondary spatial portion(s) of the electronic page. The controller renders the primary portion(s) of the electronic page into a reduced content electronic page without the secondary spatial portion(s). The controller captures a screen shot image of the reduced content electronic page.

  • Patent number: 11907509
    Abstract: A DiskLink system is provided in the present disclosure. The DiskLink system is established on a cloud-based network, and is formed by cloud-based disks connecting to each other in a way similar to that of a neural network system. The DiskLink system includes information webpages that each display virtual reality scenes. When any movement option of one information webpage is selected, an information webpage program of the information webpage stores a movement record data in a browser. When each of the information webpages is executed, the information webpage program loads the movement record data from the browser and displays a previous webpage option. When the previous webpage option is selected, the browser displays a previous webpage address in the previous webpage option, and the information webpage program uses the movement record data to simulate a user selecting the movement options to change the virtual reality scenes.
