Patent number: 10715947Abstract: Systems and methods described herein may be used to provide users personalized point-of-interest (PoI) information. A context server may cause information, describing PoIs in a particular geographic area, to be sent to a device (e.g., a component of a vehicle, a user device, etc.) communicating with a wireless telecommunication network. The device may individually determine which PoIs to display to the user based on factors such as a current location of the device, an operating status or condition of a vehicle associated with the device, and historical behavior information. The PoIs sent to the vehicles may include a personalized PoI that may be displayed to drivers in a highlighted manner. Additionally, the device may collect driving behavior information relative to the PoIs and/or the personalized PoI and provide the driving behavior information to the context server as feedback.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2019Date of Patent: July 14, 2020Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Lisewski, Arvind K. Basra, Glenna S. Colaprete

Patent number: 10372511Abstract: An approach for implementing a live application control platform for providing live application control triggers via a multicast/broadcast transmission session. The approach includes receiving an input for specifying an application event trigger. The approach also includes delivering the application event trigger over a multicast data channel, wherein the application event trigger is received by a device within a coverage area of the multicast data channel to trigger an event to be performed by one or more applications of the device.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2014Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventor: Arvind K.

Patent number: 10306423Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may periodically check for multicast updates from a wireless telecommunications network based on a particular interval (e.g., a “content check interval”). For example, when the UE is powered on, the UE may periodically check for multicast updates based on a default content check interval. The UE may monitor internal and/or external conditions, such as a status of an external device (e.g., a vehicle, an electronic billboard, etc.), a power source of the UE (e.g., an electrical outlet, a battery, etc.), a mode of operation of the UE (e.g., a sleep mode, an active mode, etc.), and an activity level of the UE (e.g., an level of processor activity, an amount of memory being used, etc.). The UE may determine a new content check interval based on the monitored conditions, and the UE may check for multicast updates based on the new content check interval.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2016Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Kevin Lisewski, Arvind K.

Patent number: 9990028Abstract: A rendering platform for providing live augmented reality content to a user device is disclosed. The rendering platform receives augmented reality content associated with an event via a multicast data channel. A coverage area of the multicast data channel covers a portion of a venue associated with the event. The rendering platform receives a request to present an augmented reality display of the event at the user device within the coverage area. Further, the augmented reality content in the augmented reality display is presented based on the request.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2014Date of Patent: June 5, 2018Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventor: Arvind K Basra

Patent number: 9936241Abstract: An approach for implementing a content provisioning platform for accurate provisioning of one or more dynamic multicast data channels (e.g., eMBMS) for initiating multicast transmission of contents. The approach includes analyzing content usage data to determine content consumption trend data associated with a topic in a service area. The approach also includes selecting a content package based on the topic, the content consumption trend data, or a combination thereof. Additionally, the approach includes provisioning a dynamic multicast data channel for initiating a multicast transmission of the content package to a plurality of devices in the service area.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2014Date of Patent: April 3, 2018Assignee: Cellco PartnershipInventor: Arvind K.

Patent number: 9326296Abstract: An approach for scheduling and delivery of contents from one or more sources to one or more service areas according to one or more QoS parameters. The approach includes receiving a request to schedule a content package for delivery to a service area over a multicast data channel, wherein the multicast data channel is associated with a default scheme for scheduling the delivery. The approach also includes identifying a prioritization parameter associated with the content package, a provider of the content package, or a combination thereof. Additionally, the approach includes determining whether to initiate an override of the default scheme for the delivery of the content package based on the prioritization parameter. Further, the approach includes scheduling the content package based on the override, the default scheme, or a combination thereof.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2014Date of Patent: April 26, 2016Assignee: Cellco PartnershipInventor: Arvind K.

Publication number: 20120072944Abstract: An approach is provided for presenting content seamlessly. Content is presented by one of a plurality of set-top boxes to a display for viewing by a user, wherein the plurality of set-top boxes are situated within a plurality of regions of a premise. The one set-top box is situated within one of the regions. The presentation of the content is paused in response to detection of movement of the user to another region of the premise. An inactive state is entered by the set-top box upon determining that another one of the set-top boxes is resuming the presentation of the content, wherein the other one of the set-top box corresponds to the other region.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2010Publication date: March 22, 2012Applicants: VERIZON NEW JERSEY, VERIZON PATENT AND LICENSING INC.Inventors: Michelle Felt, Arvind K.
