Patent number: 11606574Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for coding video data in which frames from a video source are partitioned into a plurality of tiles of common size, and the tiles are coded as a virtual video sequence according to motion-compensated prediction, each tile treated as having respective temporal location of the virtual video sequence. The coding scheme permits relative allocation of coding resources to tiles that are likely to have greater significance in a video coding session, which may lead to certain tiles that have low complexity or low motion content to be skipped during coding of the tiles for select source frames. Moreover, coding of the tiles may be ordered to achieve low coding latencies during a coding session.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2020Date of Patent: March 14, 2023Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Dazhong Zhang, Peikang Song, Beibei Wang, Giribalan Gopalan, Albert E. Keinath, Christopher M. Garrido, David R. Conrad, Hsi-Jung Wu, Ming Jin, Hang Yuan, Xiaohua Yang, Xiaosong Zhou, Vikrant Kasarabada, Davide Concion, Eric L. Chien, Bess C.

Patent number: 10887400Abstract: A client device may be used to initiate or answer calls using a host device connected to a network. For example, when a phone operating as a host device receives an incoming call from a network, the phone may communicate the presence of the incoming call to one or more client devices such as laptop, desktop, tablet, or wearable devices that are associated with the host device. When an answer call selection is made at a client, a call answered communication may be sent from the client device to the host device. The host device may then communicate with the network to connect the call to the host, and when the call is connected, the host may hand-off the call to the client that sent the call answered communication.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2017Date of Patent: January 5, 2021Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Keith W. Rauenbuehler, Jason Adam Bernardo, Nicholas M. Fraioli, Gurtej Singh Chandok, Christopher M. Garrido, Thomas Jansen

Patent number: 10880379Abstract: Methods and apparatus to manage communication sessions to handover between a direct connection at a secondary wireless device and a relayed connection to the secondary wireless device via a primary wireless device. A connection manager of a secondary wireless device can trigger transfer of a communication session based on measurements of performance metrics for the communication session. Upon detection of performance degradation in a local connection or a backhaul connection or both, the connection manager of the secondary wireless device can determine proximity of and/or capabilities for connections of the primary wireless device and instigate transfer of the communication session between different connection types, such as between a direct connection and a relayed connection. The transfer of the communication session can occur without user intervention or in response to input from the user without interrupting or reestablishing the communication session.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2018Date of Patent: December 29, 2020Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Luciano M. Verger, Ajoy K. Singh, Christopher M. Garrido, Najeeb M. Abdulrahiman, Ming Jin, Anil G. Naik, Deepak Chitlur Lakshman, Srinivasan Vasudevan, David L. Biderman, Gurtej Singh Chandok, Patrick Miauton, Eric A. Allamanche
