  • Patent number: 12033669
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to a snap point segmentation that defines the locations of selection snap points for a selection of video segments. Candidate snap points are determined from boundaries of feature ranges of the video indicating when instances of detected features are present in the video. In some embodiments, candidate snap point separations are penalized for being separated by less than a minimum duration corresponding to a minimum pixel separation between consecutive snap points on a video timeline. The snap point segmentation is computed by solving a shortest path problem through a graph that models different snap point locations and separations. When a user clicks or taps on the video timeline and drags, a selection snaps to the snap points defined by the snap point segmentation. In some embodiments, the snap points are displayed during a drag operation and disappear when the drag operation is released.

  • Publication number: 20240168533
    Abstract: Techniques are provided to synchronize a remote power switch at a power receiver end of a power cable with a first power switch operation at a power source end of the cable, without any physical or data communication means for synchronization. This process may involve synchronization of a MOSFET-type switch with voltage pulsing at the power source cable end to a MOSFET-type isolation switch at the power receiver cable end to provide (voltage or load) power during the On-time and safety testing for a shock hazard during the Off-time. This method synchronizes switching pulses by sensing and synchronizing on the cable switching voltage transients from the source side. This method also involves blanking the additional switching voltage transients on the cable generated after the synchronized switching begins to maintain proper synchronization. These techniques may be used for a single-pair pulse power cable or with multi-pair multi-phase pulse power cables.

  • Publication number: 20240162703
    Abstract: Presented herein are techniques for power fault management that operates without power-source-side switching. A power transmitter is configured to provide power to a current loop, and a power receiver is configured to receive the power from the current loop. The power receiver is configured to, on a periodic basis, disconnect from the current loop to stop pulling power from current loop for a period of time to enable a safety check to be performed by the power transmitter. The power transmitter is configured to monitor current on the current loop, determine whether the current level on the current loop passes the safety check within a predetermined time interval since a determination that the current level was not within a safe range, and control connectivity of the power to the current loop based on whether the safety check has or has not passed within the predetermined time interval.

  • Publication number: 20240134597
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for a question search for meaningful questions that appear in a video. In an example embodiment, an audio track from a video is transcribed, and the transcript is parsed to identify sentences that end with a question mark. Depending on the embodiment, one or more types of questions are filtered out, such as short questions less than a designated length or duration, logistical questions, and/or rhetorical questions. As such, in response to a command to perform a question search, the questions are identified, and search result tiles representing video segments of the questions are presented. Selecting (e.g., clicking or tapping on) a search result tile navigates a transcript interface to a corresponding portion of the transcript.

  • Publication number: 20240135973
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for identifying candidate boundaries for video segments, video segment selection using those boundaries, and text-based video editing of video segments selected via transcript interactions. In an example implementation, boundaries of detected sentences and words are extracted from a transcript, the boundaries are retimed into an adjacent speech gap to a location where voice or audio activity is a minimum, and the resulting boundaries are stored as candidate boundaries for video segments. As such, a transcript interface presents the transcript, interprets input selecting transcript text as an instruction to select a video segment with corresponding boundaries selected from the candidate boundaries, and interprets commands that are traditionally thought of as text-based operations (e.g., cut, copy, paste) as an instruction to perform a corresponding video editing operation using the selected video segment.
