Abstract: A method of forming a diamond coated glass structure includes providing a substrate having a first and a second side, with each side having at least one corner and one edge. A first portion of the first side can be masked and a CVD diamond layer deposited on a second portion of the first side of the substrate. After diamond deposition, ion substitution can be used to chemically modify at least a portion of the substrate. In some embodiments, flatness of substrates can be maintained despite compressive effects due to diamond coatings. In other embodiments, ion substitution into a partially diamond coated glass structure will greatly increase impact resistance at the corners, provide lower impact resistance at the edges, and have lowest impact resistance in a central region of the diamond coated glass structure.

Abstract: A prediction model is generated for a user using data regarding how the user responded to different positionings of items of ancillary content. The prediction model is used to determine respective positionings of a plurality of items of ancillary content. The items of ancillary content are streamed to and displayed by a user device as interstitial content using the determined respective positionings. Frames of an item of primary content may be analyzed to identify appropriate interstitial insertion points and to generate labels. The labels may be utilized by a remote system to select and stream interstitial content for the insertion points. The user's location may be determined and used to determine a maximum amount of ancillary content for a corresponding time period. Different amounts of ancillary content for a given time period may be provided to different users based on a registration state.
