  • Patent number: 10841557
    Abstract: One embodiment provides a method comprising receiving a piece of content and salient moments data for the piece of content. The method further comprises, based on the salient moments data, determining a first path for a viewport for the piece of content. The method further comprises displaying the viewport on a display device. Movement of the viewport is based on the first path during playback of the piece of content. The method further comprises generating an augmentation for a salient moment occurring in the piece of content, and presenting the augmentation in the viewport during a portion of the playback. The augmentation comprises an interactive hint for guiding the viewport to the salient moment.

  • Patent number: 9723149
    Abstract: A method and device for automatic digital customer service agent processing to automatically redirect to a correct channel for assistance. A method includes obtaining communication information based on customer communication iterations. Customer emotion information and customer situation context information is detected based on customer information obtained from one or more devices. Redirection option information is retrieved for a condition corresponding to the customer situation context information from an assistant-redirection knowledge base. The customer situation context information, the communication information, the customer emotion information and the redirection option information are used to determine and to provide a redirection suggestion with a justification, or an answer response.
