Patent number: 10545643Abstract: Systems and methods perform comparison of data represented as charts, for example, bar graphs, pie charts, line charts or stacked bar charts. The charts present visual representations mapping source values to target values. A user can select charts associated with a data records for comparison from an index of data records. The user selects a chart and a particular source value from the reference chart. The target values corresponding to the source value from other charts are compared against the target value from the reference chart. An aggregate of the target values associated with the source value from each chart may be presented to the user. The user can also use multi-touch input to select object representing data and drag them to perform actions associated with the objects. The actions performed on the objects depend on the locations of the objects as the user drags them.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2015Date of Patent: January 28, 2020Assignee: SAP SEInventor: Joel Kraut

Patent number: 10073670Abstract: Ambient noise sampled by a mobile device from a local environment is used to automatically trigger actions associated with content currently playing on the mobile device. In some implementations, subtitles or closed captions associated with the currently playing content are automatically invoked and displayed on a user interface based on a level of ambient noise. In some implementations, audio associated with the currently playing content is adjusted or muted. Actions can be automatically triggered based on a comparison of the sampled ambient noise, or an audio fingerprint of the sampled ambient noise, with reference data, such as a reference volume level or a reference audio fingerprint. In some implementations, a reference volume level can be learned on the mobile device based on ambient noise samples.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2015Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventor: Joel Kraut

Publication number: 20160334972Abstract: Many users may share information, such as messages, photos, and/or links to websites or other content, through social networks as social network posts. As provided herein, a commentating user may be provided with the ability to overlay content, such as images, icons, text, links to websites, and/or other content visually and positionally onto a social network post to create an overlaid social network post. The commentating user may resize, reposition, and/or tag the content that is overlaid the social network post. In this way, various users may overlay content onto social network posts for an improved user interface and interaction for social network interfacing.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 13, 2015Publication date: November 17, 2016Inventors: Kevin Cheng, Joel Kraut, Jason LeBrun

Patent number: 9423929Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for effectively displaying database records on a device having a display area that is small compared to the underlying data being represented. A simulated catalogue is displayed with cards associated with database records. Detailed information is presented for a record on a card obscuring information related to other records. A user is allowed to swipe on the catalogue causing simulated movement of the cards thereby displaying information associated with a database record previously obscured. The catalogue is moved with an initial velocity determined by the speed of swiping and decelerated based on a drag factor until it comes to a stop and displays information for the record reached. The ability to determine the final record displayed when the catalogue stops allows pre-fetching of the data associated with the record.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2015Date of Patent: August 23, 2016Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Camilo Mattos, Joel Kraut, Alex C. Schaefer, Santiago Becerra, Patrick Cheng, Jaime Zuluaga

Publication number: 20100309228Abstract: Effective display of data organized along multiple dimensions on a device having a display area that is small compared to the amount of data being shown in the chart is provided. A three-dimensional object that can be rotated along various axes of rotation is displayed in a particular orientation, displaying information related to a data point. Rotation of the object causes the object to be displayed in a different orientation thereby displaying information related to a different data point. The coordinates of the new data point displayed are determined based on the original coordinates and the direction and amount of rotation of the object. In one embodiment, a data arranged along two-dimensions is associated with a cube that can be rotated vertically or horizontally.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 4, 2009Publication date: December 9, 2010Inventors: Camilo Mattos, Joel Kraut, Santiago Becerra, David Becerra, Patrick Cheng, Jaime Zuluaga, Quinton Alsbury
