Publication number: 20240121367Abstract: Systems for displaying images in a cinema setting can include components to reduce screen-door effect. The systems can include an array of light emitting sources or other active sources of light. In one example, the light emitting source emit pixels of light to a projection lens to project an image represented by the projection lens and a baffle and an aperture stop can block part of the light from the sources that exceeds an allowable cone angle of acceptable of the system. In another example, a display includes the array of light emitting sources and additional elements, such as diffuser elements, positioned in front of the array of light emitting sources.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Barry Silverstein, Steen Svendstorp Iversen, Steven Charles Read, Denis Tremblay, Anton Leonard Baljet, Jesse Donald McMullen-Crummey, Andrew F.

Patent number: 10699355Abstract: A system and method for generating an aggregate document comprised of at least one sub-document. The system comprises a document management system on a first computing device connectable over a network with a user computing system on a second computing device remote from the first computing device. The document management system on the first computing device has access over the network to a plurality of databases including an aggregate document database, a license database, and a document repository database. Each of the first computing device and the second computing device have software code operationally installed thereon for effecting instructions for controlling certain aspects of each computing device. The software code on the first computing device is operational at least for controlling hardware components of the first computing device to create a builder subsystem configured to enable a user to generate at least one aggregate document.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2016Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: David Russell Vandervort, Venkatesh Guru Rao, Jesse Silverstein

Patent number: 8856645Abstract: Embodiments described herein include a document generator, which is implemented using a computing system with one or more computing devices, to generate a formatted document associated with a collection of data page units. The document generator or can include a collector, an organization unit, and a formatting unit. The collector facilitates collecting data page units in response to a user selection. The data page units are collected intact and in their original format and are associated with a first ordered sequence. The organization unit facilitates re-sequencing the data page units to associate the data page units with a second ordered sequence. The formatting unit facilitates outputting a formatted document incorporating the collected data page units in the second ordered sequence.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2009Date of Patent: October 7, 2014Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: David Russell Vandervort, Venkatesh Guru Rao, Jesse Silverstein, Michael Collins Allers

Patent number: 8533582Abstract: Embodiments described herein include a trail generator for implementing a content trail associated with selected data pages. The trail generator retrieves references to data pages selected from the Internet from storage and generates a content trail for the data pages selected from the Internet. The content trail is generated using the references by organizing the references into a user-defined, ordered sequence in the content trail and interconnecting the reference using user-assigned relationships to define at least one path in the content trail that is navigable by a viewer.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2009Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Venkatesh Guru Rao, Jesse Silverstein, James Walter Reid, David Russell Vandervort

Publication number: 20130066792Abstract: There is provided a method and system to manage licensing information associated with an aggregate document. In accordance with the method, a selection of an aggregate document that includes at least one associated sub-document is received. Each of the at least one sub-document is associated with at least one copyright flag. A sub-document is selected from the at least one sub-document. A copyright flag is selected from the at least one copyright flag associated with the selected sub-document. It is determined whether the selected copyright flag is resolved. The selected sub-document is exported to an export document capable of being transmitted to a computing system associated with a user if it is determined that the selected copyright flag is resolved.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2011Publication date: March 14, 2013Applicant: XEROX CORPORATIONInventors: David Russell Vandervort, Venkatesh Guru Rao, Jesse Silverstein

Patent number: 8321382Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to validating an aggregate document. An instance signature can be generated for a first instance of a data page retrieved for inclusion in the aggregate document and can be compared to a baseline signature associated with a second instance of the data page. A similarity value can be calculated in response to the comparison. The similarity value indicates a degree of similarity between the first instance and the second instance of the data page. Based on the similarity value it can be determined whether to delete or bypass the data page in the aggregate document.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2010Date of Patent: November 27, 2012Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: David Russell Vandervort, Venkatesh Guru Rao, Jesse Silverstein
