  • Publication number: 20240385941
    Abstract: A feedback mechanism that reports software issues between users of software applications and the developers of the software applications. The feedback mechanism generates feedback logs that capture moments of user frustration at the moment a user encounters issues with using a particular software application executing on a client device. The feedback mechanism is triggered to generate a feedback log by the user via a predetermined set of user inputs. Once generated, the feedback log captures an associated importance level, a user description, and/or context information (such as application and command activity information) for the particular software application and one or more other software applications that interacted with the particular software application executing on the client device. The feedback log can also capture multimedia content such as audio, images, and videos. The feedback log is then transmitted to a server of a developer of the particular software application.

  • Patent number: 12113873
    Abstract: A command map GUI that illustrates command usage patterns of one or more entities. A server receives and stores command usage data from a plurality of users/clients, each user/client executing a software application having a set of commands. A current user/client displays, via a GUI, graphical representations of the command usage data received from the server. The server receives new command usage data from a user/client included in the one or more entities. In response, the server automatically updates command usage data for the one or more entities, pushes the updated command usage data to the current user/client, and causes the GUI to display graphical representations of the updated command usage data. Thus, the command usage data of the one or more entities is automatically updated and displayed in the GUI in real-time or near real-time as new commands are continually invoked by users in the one or more entities.

  • Patent number: 12073494
    Abstract: A command map GUI that illustrates command usage patterns of a first entity and/or a comparison between the first entity and a second entity. A server receives and stores command usage data from a plurality of clients, each client executing a software application that enables a set of commands. A client displays the GUI based on command usage data received from the server. The GUI displays a circle chart comprising a plurality of segments representing various command categories, each segment including a wedge that represents the amount of usage of the corresponding command category. The GUI also displays a plurality of data points, each data point representing a command, wherein the distance from the center of the circle chart represents the amount of usage of the corresponding command. The GUI may display a certification and/or an unused command recommended for a user based on command usage patterns of the user.

  • Publication number: 20210163165
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for storing perishable items under reduced pressure conditions. Total atmospheric pressure within a vacuum chamber containing a perishable item is reduced below a total pressure limit. Oxygen partial pressure and total pressure within the vacuum chamber are monitored. When oxygen partial pressure falls below a lower oxygen partial pressure limit, an oxygen-containing gas is admitted to raise oxygen partial pressure above the lower oxygen partial pressure limit. When the total atmospheric pressure reaches or exceeds the total pressure limit, total pressure is once again reduced. The vacuum container or chamber comprises a section of cylindrical pipe open at both ends, a first end cap and a second end cap, and formed of a plastic material. Notwithstanding that the pipe and end caps are formed of plastic, they are formed with a structure capable of withstanding pressure created by a high vacuum in the vacuum container.

  • Patent number: 10891428
    Abstract: Embodiments presented herein include a method for altering a first annotation associated with a media file. This method may generally include the technique for receiving the media file wherein the media file contains the first annotation which is associated with a first playback speed of the media file. A second playback speed is received for the media file. A second annotation is generated based on the second playback speed of the media file based on the first annotation associated with the first playback speed of the media file. The second annotation is associated with the second playback speed of the media file and, at the second playback speed, the media file concurrently plays the second annotation.
