  • Patent number: 10335690
    Abstract: In one example, a gaming platform may use a variety of protocols to identify video game events for inclusion in a highlight reel. The gaming platform may store a highlight criterion for a video game to mark a highlight event in the video game. The gaming platform may play a video game session of the video game. The gaming platform may identify a video game event in the video game session that matches the highlight criterion. The gaming platform may trigger an application programming interface to mark the video game event as a highlight event for inclusion in a highlight reel presenting highlight events from the video game session. The gaming platform may present the video game session to a player.

  • Patent number: 9676028
    Abstract: A method of processing a casting is described. The method comprises removing a mold from a cast metal part without cold working surfaces of the cast metal part and thermally treating the cast metal part. The method can further comprise finishing the surfaces of the cast metal part after thermally treating such that any cold working of the surfaces of the cast metal part occurs after thermally treating such that no recast layer is formed in the cast metal part.

  • Patent number: 4797305
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process and apparatus for painting golf holes. The apparatus comprises a substantially planar disk base member having a central opening and an integral skirt to be placed over the hole to prevent the inadvertent application of paint to the grass surrounding the hole. The apparatus further comprises a receptacle attached to the base for receiving and positioning a can of spray paint so that the paint discharge opening lies at a desired position within the confines of the hole. To paint a hole, a can of spray paint is placed in an inverted position, inserted into the receptacle until a push button for initiating a spray of paint is depressed against a stop and rotated one full turn.
