Abstract: An in-content challenge platform generates dynamic content for interactive media applications, for example, online games. The system presents dynamic content in connection with interactive media applications. The in-content challenge platform receives in-content challenge criteria based on actions performed by users in interactive media applications. The in-content challenge platform receives event data indicating actions performed by the user within the online game and identifies an in-content challenge associated with the action. And determines whether any in-content challenge is met by the user based on the actions. If the user meets an in-content challenge, the platform dynamically generates content for sending to the user. The system uses artificial intelligence techniques including symbolic artificial intelligence, unsupervised machine learning techniques, and supervised machine learning techniques for generating dynamic content.

Abstract: An in-content challenge platform and method for generating single user challenges within multiplayer games (and other media) is disclosed. The in-content challenge platform provides various in-content challenges and prize promotions to users for completing specific win conditions within an instance content (e.g., a video game, a fitness application, a streaming video service, etc.). In some embodiments, the platform can be integrated directly into the game itself. In other embodiments, the platform is seen as an overlay to the game. In still other embodiments, the user can interact with the platform through a separate piece of software that is reached via a client device independent of the content or a third-party system providing the content itself.

Abstract: A resilient clip can be used for covers for equipment. The resilient clip has a portion that can be inserted into a channel on the equipment, a portion that can be attached to a cover, and a portion that can be used to remove the clip from the channel.

Abstract: Various methods, systems, and devices for treating tissue ablation are disclosed. Some embodiments disclosed herein pertain to methods of treating tumors, systems used for irradiating tissue and tumors with electromagnetic radiation, components and devices of that system, and kits for providing systems used for irradiating tissue and tumors with electromagnetic radiation. In some embodiments, the system provides sub-ablative infrared radiation that is absorbed by nanoparticles. In some embodiments, the nanoparticles absorb the radiation converting it into heat energy. In some embodiments, though the infrared radiation itself may be sub-ablative, the heat energy generated by the nanoparticles is sufficient to cause thermal coagulation, hyperthermia, and/or tissue ablation.

Abstract: An in-content challenge platform generates dynamic content for interactive media applications, for example, online games. The system presents dynamic content in connection with interactive media applications. The system uses artificial intelligence techniques including symbolic artificial intelligence, unsupervised machine learning techniques, and supervised machine learning techniques for generating dynamic content. The system stores symbolic expressions representing constraints and content items and use an inference engine to determine whether content items satisfy constraints. The in-content challenge platform receives in-content challenge criteria based on actions performed by users in interactive media applications. The in-content challenge platform receives event data indicating actions performed by the user within the online game and identifies an in-content challenge associated with the action. And determines whether any in-content challenge is met by the user based on the actions.

Abstract: A frame for a top of a boat that can be moved between a deployed position and a collapsed position with the aid of an articulated top assist mechanism such that the manual effort required to move the top between the collapsed position and deployed position is minimized or eliminated. The articulated top assist mechanism has a torque hub attached to a frame element of the top and a spring that applies torque to the hub by a strap attached to the hub and the spring.

Abstract: A resilient clip can be used for covers for equipment. The resilient clip has a portion that can be inserted into a channel on the equipment, a portion that can be attached to a cover, and a portion that can be used to remove the clip from the channel.

Abstract: A cover for a vehicle, such as a boat, including a ratchet and straps. The straps are connected to a plate for evenly distributing the load placed on the straps when the straps are tightened by the ratchet. The straps, when tightened, provide form to the cover such that water will run off the cover.
