  • Publication number: 20240073489
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to propagating multi-dimensional world state data between nodes of a mesh network and from the mesh network to client systems by applying multiple levels of filters. World state data can represent state data for entities within a shared software application environment. Implementations of the mesh network can propagate world state data by applying first level server node filtration for the server nodes of the mesh network and second level client specific filtration for client systems connected to the mesh network. In some implementations, an additional level of filtration and/or aggregation is applied by aggregation nodes of the mesh network that source world state data from the server nodes. In some implementations, the server filters and client specific filters can be defined as dimensions and dimension values, where the filter scopes correspond to topologies of the multi-dimensional world state data.

  • Publication number: 20230360329
    Abstract: In some implementations, the disclosed systems and methods display content from a public network (e.g., the Internet) such as via a web host, content delivery network, etc. In some implementations, the disclosed systems and methods can issue an entitlement as a token, signed with a private key by an issuing authority. In some implementations, the disclosed systems and methods can determine caloric consumption attributable to both upper and lower body movements of the user throughout changes in pose.

  • Publication number: 20190158484
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, from a client system of a first user of an online social network, an indication the first user is accessing a gaming platform; authenticating the first user to access to the gaming platform; receiving, from the gaming platform, a request to access social-networking information associated with the first user; providing, to the gaming platform, access to the social-networking information; receiving, from the gaming platform responsive to a call to a sharing-moments application programming interface (API), gaming-moment information that includes references to one or more in-game actions of the first user in a first game hosted on the gaming platform and metadata associated with each of the one or more in-game actions; and providing, to the client system of the first user, the gaming-moment information within one or more social contexts on the online social network.

  • Patent number: 9548950
    Abstract: Multiple camera angles of an interactive event are simultaneously transmitted as part of a broadcast. The simultaneous distribution of multiple synchronized streams of audio and/or visual information enables switching between cameras to be made by the audience members without interruption of the presentation of the event. In one embodiment, a performance studio might send out multiple synchronized concurrent streams. For example, a performance studio might transmit four distinct camera angles or streams, each at varying quality levels, such as the illustrated high-bandwidth and low-bandwidth encodings. Selection of the stream may also direct interactive feedback portions generated by the selecting audience member towards the selected object/individual. Alternatively, interactive feedback generated by the audience member may be directed globally to the producers of the event and selectively to the performers and other audience members of the event.
