  • Publication number: 20240104151
    Abstract: A computing device may be configured to (i) operate as a control device of a media playback system including first and second playback devices, each associated with a respective playback queue, (ii) determine that a first playback queue associated with the first playback device is empty, (iii) based on the determination, determine content recommendations based on context information related to the first playback device, (iv) display indications of the first and second playback devices, where (a) the indication of the second playback device indicates media content identified in a second playback queue associated with the second playback device, and (b) the indication of the first playback device includes a selectable indication for each content recommendation for the first playback queue, (v) receive a selection of a content recommendation, and (vi) based on the received input, populate the first playback queue with media content corresponding to the selected content recommendation.

  • Patent number: 11756518
    Abstract: Vocal audio of a user together with performance synchronized video is captured and coordinated with audiovisual contributions of other users to form composite duet-style or glee club-style or window-paned music video-style audiovisual performances. In some cases, the vocal performances of individual users are captured (together with performance synchronized video) on mobile devices, television-type display and/or set-top box equipment in the context of karaoke-style presentations of lyrics in correspondence with audible renderings of a backing track. Contributions of multiple vocalists are coordinated and mixed in a manner that selects for presentation, at any given time along a given performance timeline, performance synchronized video of one or more of the contributors. Selections are in accord with a visual progression that codes a sequence of visual layouts in correspondence with other coded aspects of a performance score such as pitch tracks, backing audio, lyrics, sections and/or vocal parts.

  • Publication number: 20230091861
    Abstract: A silicone hybrid pressure sensitive adhesive composition that cures to form a silicone hybrid pressure sensitive adhesive contains a polydiorganosiloxane having reactive groups. The reactive groups include a silicon bonded (meth)acryloxyalkyl-functional group in a pendant position and optionally a silicon bonded aliphatically unsaturated hydrocarbon group in a terminal position. The silicone hybrid pressure sensitive adhesive composition can be cured via hydrosilylation reaction on a surface of a substrate to form a protective film. The protective film can be used to protect a passivation layer during a process for fabricating an (opto)electronic device such as a flexible organic light emitting diode display. The protective film can be exposed to radiation to reduce tack and facilitate detaching the protective film from the passivation layer.

  • Patent number: 11549039
    Abstract: A pressure sensitive adhesive composition can cure via hydrosilylation to form a pressure sensitive adhesive. The pressure sensitive adhesive composition may be coated on a substrate and cured to form a protective film. The protective film is useful in flexible OLED device fabrication processes, e.g., for protection of passivation layers.
