  • Publication number: 20230041712
    Abstract: A video conferencing system includes a multi-user interaction slate for the execution of applications having a state that is responsive to inputs from multiple attendees of a video conference. The video conferencing system includes a graphical user interface having video slates provided for video streams and multi-user interaction slates for the execution of code that is responsive to inputs provided at multiple client devices. The video conferencing system can determine a current state of a multi-user interaction slate in response to inputs provided by users of the client devices in association with the multi-user interaction slate. The video conferencing system can provide data for rendering the graphical user interface, including video data associated with the video slates and data indicative of the current state of the multi-user interaction slate.

  • Patent number: 9830388
    Abstract: A modular search object framework provides modular search results including entity and non-entity search results. The framework includes circuitry that outputs an interactive entity section based on an online search. The interactive section includes a plurality of moveable visual objects, such as cards that can be shuffled, flipped, or swiped around.

  • Patent number: 9535945
    Abstract: A modular search object framework provides modular search results including entity search results reflecting the intent of a searcher. Also, an interface (such as a graphical user interface provided by the framework), aids in organizing results (such as links, titles, and description) according to the intent of the user as manifest in the search query and interactions with the interface. Circuitry of the framework also predicts user intent from historical information corresponding to the searcher (or to a group with which the searcher is associated).

  • Publication number: 20150317945
    Abstract: A system stored in a non-transitory medium executable by processor circuitry is provided for generating a tinted glass visual effect. The system includes interface circuitry configured to receive a search query and query processing circuitry configured to identify a content item related to the search query and to retrieve data for the content item. Image editing circuitry is communicatively coupled to the query processing circuitry. The image editing circuitry is configured to identify a display element associated with the content item from the retrieved data, dynamically generate a semi-transparent portion of the display element, and apply the semi-transparent portion of the display element to a background of an interface element. Display logic circuitry is also communicatively coupled to the interface circuitry and is configured to display, in response to the search query, the interface element as a sub-portion of the display element associated with the content item.
