Patent number: 11943116Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed at mapping and controlling network-enabled IoT devices housed in an environment via a graphical user interface (GUI) of an electronic device. The disclosed features include generating a digital map representing the 3D or the 2D position of the IoT devices in the environment. In some embodiments, the digital map can be overlaid on a layout of a physical floorplan of the environment also showing physical objects in the environment. Different IoT devices in the environment can be controlled via a GUI common to the different IoT devices. Additionally, the GUI can be used to select a group of IoT devices and perform group-wise control of the IoT devices in the group.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2020Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: DISH Network L.L.C.Inventor: Jesus Flores Guerra

Patent number: 11935174Abstract: Processes, systems, and devices generate a training set comprising a first presentation having a first visual aid and a first audio description. The first visual aid and the first audio description are based on initial data retrieved from a first data source using a first indexing technique. The machine-learning system is trained using the first presentation and the initial data retrieved from the first data source using the first indexing technique. The machine-learning system generates a second presentation having a second visual aid and a second audio description. The second visual aid and the second audio description are based on refreshed data retrieved from the first data source using the first indexing technique. The machine-learning system presents the second presentation via an avatar in a virtual meeting room. The avatar is generated by the machine-learning system to present the second visual aid and the second audio description.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: DISH Network L.L.C.Inventors: Eric Pleiman, Jesus Flores Guerra

Publication number: 20240056651Abstract: A gateway device is disclosed that includes a user key; a transceiver to communicate data over a network and with a set top box; and a processor configured for: receiving a protected secure key from a content provider; receiving an encrypted control word key from the content provider. The encrypted control word key is encrypted with a secure key and, once the encrypted control word key is decrypted, the decrypted control word key decrypts an encrypted digital content that is sent to a set top box; retrieving the user key from the memory of the gateway device; using the user key to decrypt the protected secure key to obtain a decrypted secure key; using the decrypted secure key to decrypt the encrypted control word key to obtain the decrypted control word key; and transmitting the decrypted control word key to the set top box for decrypting the encrypted digital content.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 9, 2022Publication date: February 15, 2024Applicant: DISH NETWORK, L.L.C.Inventors: James BRUNNER, Ross Alan DRENNAN, Jesus FLORES GUERRA

Patent number: 11877024Abstract: The present technology is generally directed to multi-user screen sharing. In some embodiments, a method for media content screen sharing includes receiving a first media content item selection from a first user and receiving a second media content item selection from a second user. The method can further include generating a multi-content video signal, wherein the multi-content video signal includes the selected first media content item and the selected second media content item. The multi-content video signal can be displayed to both the first user and the second user. The method can include causing a first electronic device of the first user to display a first portion of the multi-content video signal that corresponds to the selected first media content item, and causing a second electronic device of the second user to display a second portion of the multi-content video signal that corresponds to the selected second media content item.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2022Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: DISH Network L.L.C.Inventor: Jesus Flores Guerra

Publication number: 20230386126Abstract: A process for rendering objects includes detecting a first surface of an object oriented in a first position. A first image is captured with a camera and at least partially captures a first marker on the first surface. A prompt requests manipulation of the object into a second position to expose a second surface to the camera in response to detecting a missing image of a marker. A second image of the second surface is captured with the camera and at least partially captures a second marker on the second surface. The object is rendered as a virtual representation in a virtual environment in response to detecting the first marker in the first image and the second marker in the second image. The size of the virtual representation is estimated based on the detected size of at least one of the first marker and the second marker.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 31, 2022Publication date: November 30, 2023Applicant: DISH Network L.L.C.Inventors: Jesus Flores Guerra, Eric Pleiman

Publication number: 20230345090Abstract: A method of generating summary media content includes providing media content by an electronic device and identifying one or more periods of high user engagement with the media content. The one or more periods of high user engagement are identified by obtaining biometric information, via one or more biometric sensors, from a user while the user interacts with the media content. Based on the biometric information, at least one media content portion is isolated from the media content and is used to generate summary media content.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2022Publication date: October 26, 2023Inventor: Jesus Flores Guerra

Publication number: 20230179825Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are described for facilitating a cell phone content watch party. A system includes a server, a host user device and a client user device—both coupled to the server, a content capture device (CCD) coupled to the host user device, and a content provider coupled to the host user device and the client user device. The content provider provides primary content segments. The CCD provides cell phone content which the host user device provides the cell phone content to the server. The server synchronizes a providing of the cell phone content with a presentation of the primary content segments by the client user device such that the presentations of the cell phone content and the primary content segments occur substantially simultaneously on the host user device and the client user device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 7, 2021Publication date: June 8, 2023Applicant: DISH Network L.L.C.Inventors: Ross Alan Drennan, Grant Alexander Drennan, Jesus Flores Guerra

Patent number: 10909175Abstract: Described are systems, methods and computer program products for suggesting television programs to a user by, for example, analyzing closed caption or subtitle content of unwatched or unrecorded video content to determine if the video content is of interest to the user. The user may indicate one or more keywords for use in the analysis and the analysis may scan the text of the closed caption or subtitle content to identify matches to the keywords. Beside user input keywords, the keywords may also be determined through analysis of video content watched or recorded by the user to determine frequently encountered words. These frequently encountered words may automatically be used in matching the text of the closed caption or subtitle content. The users may also or alternatively select particular words of the frequently encountered words to use for matching.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2019Date of Patent: February 2, 2021Assignee: DISH Technologies L.L.C.Inventor: Jesus Flores Guerra
