  • Patent number: 11968157
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for providing reduced availability modes in messaging. The program and method provide for maintaining a count of consecutive time periods in which message content has been exchanged between a first user and a second user in a messaging application; receiving, from a device associated with the first user, a request to set an availability mode for the first user to a reduced availability mode with respect to the messaging application; setting, in response to receiving the request, the availability mode for the first user to the reduced availability mode; and refraining from updating the count while the availability mode is set to the reduced availability mode.

  • Patent number: 11765498
    Abstract: A microphone array system or microphone array unit for a conference system is provided that includes a front board, side walls and a plurality of microphone capsules arranged in or on the front board mountable on or in a ceiling of a conference room. The microphone array system or unit is adapted for generating a steerable beam within a maximum detection angle range. The microphone array system or microphone array unit includes a processing unit which is configured to receive the output signals of the microphone capsules and to steer the beam based on the received output signal of the microphone array. The processing unit is configured to control the microphone array to limit the detection angle range to exclude at least one predetermined exclusion sector in which a noise source is located.

  • Publication number: 20230252733
    Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for displaying blockchain data associated with a three-dimensional digital object, a three-dimensional digital object is registered with an application for monitoring blockchain events corresponding to an update event for the three-dimensional digital object. The blockchain events are monitored for an event corresponding to an update event for the three-dimensional digital object. Responsive to detecting the update event, it is determined that the metadata for the three-dimensional digital object comprises stale data. The metadata is updated to replace the stale data with current data. The three-dimensional digital object is displayed within a presentation medium. Responsive to detecting a first interaction with the three-dimensional digital object within the presentation medium, a certificate object is displayed within the presentation medium, the certificate object comprising the current data.
