  • Patent number: 11968244
    Abstract: Techniques for clustering a plurality of virtual space servers based on communication platform data are discussed herein. In some examples, a user may post a message to a virtual space of a communication platform. The communication platform may transmit the message to virtual space servers configured to manage the virtual space within which the message originated. In such examples, the communication platform may identify clusters of virtual space servers and determine within which cluster the corresponding virtual space server is located. Virtual space servers may be clustered based on attribute data associated with communication platform data. In some examples, the communication platform may send the message to the virtual space server which may send the message to subscribing gateway servers. Further, the gateways servers may send the message to the recipient client devices. The recipient client devices may display the message via a user interface of the communication platform.

  • Patent number: 11875027
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention analyze a context in which a user interacts with a computer interface and automatically optimizes the interface for the context. The controller or control mode the user selects for interaction may define the context, in part. Examples of control modes include gesturing, audio control, use of companion devices, and use of dedicated control devices, such as game controllers and remote controls. The different input devices are designed for different tasks. Nevertheless, a user will frequently attempt to perform a task using a control input that is not adapted for the task. Embodiments of the present invention change the characteristics of the user interface to make it easier for the user to complete an intended task using the input device of the user's choice.

  • Patent number: 11862126
    Abstract: An example non-transitory machine-readable storage medium includes instructions to, when executed by the processor, identify an object depicted in a video scene, wherein the video scene is displayed in a graphical user interface (GUI). The example instructions are executable to 1) identify coordinates of the object depicted in the video scene, wherein the coordinates are relative to the GUI and 2) identify coordinates of an inset window which is smaller than the GUI and overlaps the video scene. The example instructions are executable to compare the coordinates of the object with the coordinates of the inset window to determine an overlap of the inset window with the object. Responsive to an identified overlap of the inset window and the object, the instructions are executable to alter a display characteristic of the inset window to avoid the overlap of the inset window with the object.
