Patent number: 11853650Abstract: In an example, a computing system receives an instruction to initiate audio presentation of electronic communications for a recipient. Responsive to the instruction, the computing system audibly outputs each unreviewed electronic communication in a most-recent conversation thread including a most-recent set of unreviewed, reply-linked electronic communications for the recipient. Each unreviewed electronic communication in the most-recent conversation thread may be audibly output in a chronological-sequential order beginning with an oldest unreviewed electronic communication and continuing to a most-recent unreviewed electronic communication. Responsive to completing audible output of the most-recent unreviewed electronic communication from a conversation thread, the computing device audibly outputs each unreviewed electronic communication in a next-most-recent conversation thread including a next-most-recent set of unreviewed, reply-linked electronic communications for the recipient.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2022Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: August Kathryn Niehaus, Saurabh Choudhury, Eugene Y. Suh, Gunjan Sood

Publication number: 20220328033Abstract: A computing system receives an instruction to initiate audio presentation of electronic communications for a recipient, and outputs an audio presentation responsive to the instruction. The audio presentation includes an initial portion that includes a presentation road map, and a subsequent portion that includes audible output of text content of a plurality of unreviewed electronic communications for the recipient. The presentation road map identifies an estimated duration of time to present the subsequent portion of the audio presentation.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 20, 2022Publication date: October 13, 2022Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: August Kathryn NIEHAUS, Saurabh CHOUDHURY, Eugene Y.

Publication number: 20210056950Abstract: A computing system obtains an electronic communication for a recipient and identifies presence of a predefined feature within the electronic communication. The computing system extracts a data subset from the electronic communication. The data subset is identified by a data extraction template selected for the predefined feature identified within the electronic communication. The computing system derives a narrative based on the data subset using an audio presentation template selected for the predefined feature identified within the electronic communication. The audio presentation template is configured to translate an aspect of the data subset into narrative form. The computing system outputs the narrative in an electronic format for audio presentation via an audio output interface in which the narrative describes the aspect of the data subset extracted from the electronic communication.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2019Publication date: February 25, 2021Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: August Kathryn NIEHAUS, Eugene Y.

Patent number: 10078627Abstract: Collaboration cards are provided to enable people to collaborate and receive instant replies to comments or questions from anywhere in a collaboratively generated document. A collaborator may add somebody's name to a collaboration card and ask that person for information, for example. That person may receive the question/comment via an email, a text message, a posting, or comparable communication methods, and respond back with the requested information through the same communication channel or another communication channel. The replied content may be placed into the collaboration card created in the document, and the original sender may be enabled to accept a change to the document content based on the collaboration card.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2015Date of Patent: September 18, 2018Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Shikha Desai, Gary Caldwell, Rolf Ebeling, Taili Feng, Paul Scudieri, Sung Joon Won, Eugene Y.

Publication number: 20170139890Abstract: Smart cards are used to provide a consolidated summary of tabular data from a collaboration database. Card layouts may be responsive to table schema and present data consistently across different devices and platforms. Cards may have pre-set layouts designed to present content in a user-friendly manner enhancing user experience and enabling interactivity. Card layouts may be determined by a set of pre-defined rules, which may be based on a type of data in a first column of an underlying table and types of data in other columns (such as images, communications, and other forms of rich data).Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2016Publication date: May 18, 2017Applicant: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Krista Bendig, Travis Eby, Caoimhe Grace Dowling, Raul Clouse, Krunal Sheth, Eugene Y.
