  • Circular visual representation of media content
    Patent number: 10783679
    Abstract: According to one implementation, a system for visualizing media content includes a computing platform including a hardware processor and a system memory, storing a content visualization software code. The hardware processor is configured to execute the content visualization software code to receive a media file, parse the media file to identify a primary content and metadata describing the primary content, and analyze the metadata to determine representative features of the primary content. The hardware processor further executes the content visualization software code to generate a circular visual representation of the primary content based on the metadata and the representative features, the circular visual representation having a non-linear correspondence to at least one of the representative features. The circular visual representation includes a central circle having a central radius, and multiple, at least semicircular segments, each having a respective radius greater than the central radius.
