Abstract: A camera system and method captures and stitches images to display share-of-shelf information. The camera system superimposes a guide with the first image so that the camera is movable to align the first image with the guide. The system adds an edge demarcation to the captured first image displays the edge demarcation along with a second adjacent image of the shelf, so that the edge demarcation and the guide are usable to align and overlap common portions of the second image with the first modified image. The system captures the second image upon alignment of the second image with the guide and with the edge demarcation of the first modified image, to create a second modified image, the first modified image and the second modified image forming an aggregated image.

Abstract: A method for creating Web pages with a content realization engine embodied in a computer includes the steps of creating and storing primary content that is generally applicable, and inserting shims in the primary content, each shim being a placeholder for secondary content. The method creates and stores secondary content that is applicable to a specific topic. By combining the primary and secondary content, e.g., by replacing the shims with secondary content, a Web site directed to the specific topic is formed.

Abstract: A server for facilitating a vendor showcase system, wherein the server communicates with clients via a distributed computing network, and wherein the server includes a memory storing an instruction set and vendor data related to a plurality of vendors. The server also includes a processor for running the instruction set, the processor being in communication with the memory and the distributed computing network. The processor is operative to (i) sort the vendor data based upon category, (ii) receive criteria related to a request for information, and (iii) provide a display of the vendor data for a pre-selected number of vendors based upon the criteria, wherein the display of the vendor data is presented in a flat manner. The processor may be further operative to compile return on investment statistics based upon user traffic and viewing at the display.
