Patent number: 12229475Abstract: Systems and methods for a media content system. A media content provider includes storage for storing and serving video content to subscribers. The media content provider records and or otherwise stores video content from around the world. The system includes display devices configured to identify and tailor content to multiple individual users. Each user may have individual settings which provide for a customized viewing environment and experience. The system is configured to identify users of the system in order to tailor the content as appropriate. In addition, identification of users allows for the identification of the subscription content that corresponds to the user. Based upon identification of a user and corresponding subscription, the user's subscription content may be streamed to any location. In this manner, the users subscribed content may follow the user from home to a friend's house, or elsewhere.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2023Date of Patent: February 18, 2025Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Gregory N. Christie, Alessandro Sabatelli, William M. Bachman, Imran Chaudhri, Jeffrey Robbin, Jim Young, Joe Howard, Marcel Van Os, Patrick L. Coffman, Stephen O. Lemay, Jeffrey Ma, Lynne Kress

Patent number: 12225253Abstract: Systems and methods for a media content delivery service. A media content provider includes a data store for storing and serving media content to subscribers. The media content provider continually records and or otherwise stores video and audio content from around the world. Stored content will generally correspond to a large number of other media content providers, such as cable television operators, Internet based media content providers, television networks, and so on. Subscribers to the media provider interact with the media content provider via hardware and/or software mechanisms either provided by the media content provider or conforming to specifications of the media content provider. Based on these subscriber's subscriptions to the other content providers, the subscribers will have viewing, listening, or application execution privileges for content maintained in the data store. Content of a subscriber corresponding to multiple video content providers is maintained and served by a single provider.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2022Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Gregory N. Christie, Alessandro Sabatelli, William M. Bachman, Imran Chaudhri, Jeffrey Robbin, Jim Young, Joe Howard, Marcel Van Os, Patrick L Coffman, Stephen O. Lemay, Jeffrey Ma, Lynne Kress

Patent number: 12216897Abstract: An example method occurring at a device with a touch-sensitive display. The method includes that while displaying a first user interface of a first application on the touch-sensitive display, the device receives a gesture at the touch-sensitive display. The method includes that in response to receiving the gesture on the touch-sensitive display and in accordance with a determination that the gesture is from an edge region of the touch-sensitive display, the device ceases to display the first user interface of the first application and displaying a second user interface of a second application that is different from the first application. The method also includes that in response to receiving the gesture on the touch-sensitive display and in accordance with a determination that the gesture begins at a non-edge region of the touch-sensitive display, the device performs an operation within the first application while continuing to display the first user interface.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2024Date of Patent: February 4, 2025Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Imran Chaudhri, Lawrence Yang, Alessandro Sabatelli, Brian Schmitt

Publication number: 20250021218Abstract: In some embodiments, a device displays functionality information in response to receiving an indication of a first input for which a contact meets functionality display criteria. In some embodiments, a device generates a user interface that includes a navigation bar including images from different positions in a respective content item, and a representation of an adjacent content item. In some embodiments, a device moves a selection-indicator in a user interface by a predefined amount in response to receiving an indication of a first input that meets unitary movement criteria. In some embodiments, a device interprets movement of a contact of an input based at least in part on a grip of a user. In some embodiments, a device displays a plurality of character selection options when a text entry field is not tolerant of character ambiguity and a first input corresponds to a plurality of candidate characters.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2024Publication date: January 16, 2025Inventors: Marcel VAN OS, William M.

Patent number: 12026348Abstract: Generating for display an indicator of hidden objects in response to user input is disclosed. An input for moving a pointer presented in a user interface toward a first virtual boundary is received. The movement of the pointer toward the first virtual boundary is generated for display. An action is triggered in response to receiving input for movement of the pointer across the first virtual boundary after the pointer crosses the first virtual boundary. An object is generated for display in the user interface in response to receiving input for movement of the pointer across a second virtual boundary.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2017Date of Patent: July 2, 2024Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: John Louch, Alessandro Sabatelli

Publication number: 20240177835Abstract: A medical imaging communication system generates an automated report for a medical image corresponding to a patient. The system receives one or more medical images for a patient. The system applies a model to identify an abnormality in the received one or more medical images. The model is configured to determine a likelihood score for the presence of the abnormality in the one or more medical images. If the likelihood score is above a threshold value, the system generates an automated report indicating the type of abnormality identified in the received one or more medical images. The automated report is then provided to a viewing user (e.g., a medical professional viewing the one or more medical images).Type: ApplicationFiled: February 2, 2024Publication date: May 30, 2024Inventors: Kevin Quennesson, Alessandro Sabatelli

Patent number: 11670289Abstract: Systems and processes are disclosed for handling a multi-part voice command for a virtual assistant. Speech input can be received from a user that includes multiple actionable commands within a single utterance. A text string can be generated from the speech input using a speech transcription process. The text string can be parsed into multiple candidate substrings based on domain keywords, imperative verbs, predetermined substring lengths, or the like. For each candidate substring, a probability can be determined indicating whether the candidate substring corresponds to an actionable command. Such probabilities can be determined based on semantic coherence, similarity to user request templates, querying services to determine manageability, or the like. If the probabilities exceed a threshold, the user intent of each substring can be determined, processes associated with the user intents can be executed, and an acknowledgment can be provided to the user.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2020Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Thomas R. Gruber, Harry J. Saddler, Jerome Rene Bellegarda, Bryce H. Nyeggen, Alessandro Sabatelli
