Publication number: 20240075397Abstract: An interactive toy system includes a barrel forming an internal space capable of holding a figurine, and a bottle forming an enclosure to house the barrel. An inter-wall space is formed between the barrel and the bottle for holding a liquid. The wall of the bottle and the wall of the barrel are configured to have opaque portions. The opaque portions of the barrel wall and the bottle wall are initially oriented to block the user's view inside the barrel. When ingredients are added to the inter-wall space with water, a liquid of opaque color is created. Then the barrel is rotated and an ingredient or material (e.g., liquid, powder, etc.) is mixed with the liquid to clarify the liquid revealing the figurine inside the internal space. The ingredient or material can further create a fizz in the inter-wall space.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Hannan Yacob Tankel, Nazanin Keyvanloo, Ross Monks, James Austin-Smith

Publication number: 20240058713Abstract: An interactive toy system is shown and described. The toy system includes a double walled flask adapted to be connected to a base forming an internal space capable of holding an object or a figurine. When an empty space between the double walls is filled with an opaque fluid, it gives the player the impression that the whole flask is filled with such fluid. The toy system includes a smoke generating system, light emitting LEDs and a speaker. During the controlled play process, ingredients are added to an isolated fluid chamber on top of the flask. The operation and the special effects from the smoke, the sound, the light, and the phenomenon in the fluid chamber gives the impression that the creature is being created inside the opaque flask. When the process is concluded and the fluid in the flask is drained, the figurine inside the flask is revealed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Alex Martin, James Austin-Smith, Brandon Cole Sopinsky, Miguel Rusch, Heng Shen Yeap

Patent number: 11650726Abstract: Systems and methods for manipulating a graphical user interface (GUI) are described. The GUI is configured to show, to a user, a transition from displaying an inline card to displaying a corresponding snackbar. The system uses an overlay to seamlessly show the transition without requiring significant edits to most portions of the GUI. In various implementations, a system displays an inline card in a base layer of a GUI and receives an input associated with the inline card. In response to receiving the input, the system generates a transitional object in an overlay of the GUI (with the overlay displayed over the base layer), generates a snackbar in the base layer, adjusts the transitional object in the overlay from covering the inline card to covering where the snackbar is generated, and removes the transitional object from the GUI.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2022Date of Patent: May 16, 2023Assignee: Intuit Inc.Inventor: Samuel Austin Smith
