  • Publication number: 20220174367
    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing accessibility features for generating annotations for a video content stream include providing an annotation menu with a plurality of annotation options for defining annotations for the video content stream. Each annotation option provides an annotation tool to generate an annotation that corresponds with an accessibility feature defined by the annotation option. Annotation generated using the annotation tool is used to generate an annotation layer for the video content stream. An annotated video content stream is generated by overlaying the annotation layer over the video content stream. The annotated video content stream generated for the selected annotation option is provided for rendering at a client device of a user, in response to receiving a selection of the accessibility feature corresponding to the annotation option from the user. The annotations included in the annotated video content stream augments the content of the video content stream.

  • Publication number: 20170237437
    Abstract: Structure for a level shifter circuit is provided that includes a native transistor. The level shifter circuit includes transistors that are configured as an inverter and the native transistor configured to remain on or in a subthreshold region. The level shifter circuit is configured to receive a first input signal that ranges between ground and a first voltage and output an output signal that ranges from ground to a second voltage greater than the first voltage. The structure reduces an area required by the level shifter circuit and consumes a low amount of standby current.

  • Patent number: 9251223
    Abstract: Many websites publish variants of their web pages based on language and region. However, when a user is directed toward the incorrect web page for the user's language preference, it there is not a simple way for the user to select the appropriate localized or region specific version of the web page. According to an embodiment, a language preference from a user may be received. A first language for a first web page may be identified and the first web page may be received by a computing device of the user. A second language for a second web page may be identified. The second web page may comprise an alternate version of the first web page. The first web page or the second web page may be selected according to the language preference of the user and the selected web page may be presented to the user.

  • Patent number: 9143129
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate generally to detector circuits. Embodiments provide a low-power, accurate reference-free threshold detector. In particular, embodiments reduce leakage current at low input levels and prevent shoot through current for higher than nominal low input levels. Further, embodiments require no bandgap or accurate reference, and as a result eliminate the need for a constantly ON bandgap or accurate reference circuit. As such, embodiments have significantly reduced power consumption compared to conventional circuits. In addition, embodiments detect correctly low and high input levels that are separated narrowly and that may have wide ranges. Embodiments can be extended to any particular design choice of low and high input levels and corresponding output levels.

  • Patent number: 8799307
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for cross-language information retrieval. A source query in a source language is received. The source query is translated into a target query in a target language. One or more target-language resources that satisfy the target query are identified. The identified resources are translated into the source language. Search results corresponding to the translated resources are presented.

  • Patent number: 8683329
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for translation of markup language documents with display replacement. In some implementations, a method includes displaying a markup language document in an original language by rendering an internal representation of the document, sending a data structure containing the texts from the text nodes of the internal representation, as distinct data entities, to a translation service, replacing the texts with translated texts received from the translation service resulting in a translated representation, and displaying a first translation of the document by rendering the translated representation. In some implementations, partial, incremental translation is performed. In some implementations, a method includes receiving a notification that a phrase in a markup language document has been selected, requesting translation of the text of the selected phrase, and then displaying a received translation in a user interface.
