Patent number: 11908191Abstract: A computing system identifies broadcast video data for a game. The computing system generates tracking data for the game from the broadcast video data using computer vision techniques. The tracking data includes coordinates of players during the game. The computing system generates optical character recognition data for the game from the broadcast video data by applying one or more optical character recognition techniques to each frame of the plurality of frames to extract score and time information from a scoreboard displayed in each frame. The computing system detects a plurality of events that occurred in the game by applying one or more machine learning techniques to the tracking data. The computing system receives play-by-play data for the game. The computing system generates enriched tracking data. The generating includes merging the play-by-play data with one or more of the tracking data, the optical character recognition data, and the plurality of events.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2021Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Stats LLCInventors: Alex Ottenwess, Matthew Scott, Ken Rhodes, Patrick Joseph Lucey

Patent number: 7135851Abstract: A terminal block probe for taking electrical current measurements through an isolating terminal block by a multi-meter includes a tip configured as an isolating terminal block pin corresponding to the isolating terminal block pin of the particular isolating terminal block under test. This allows the probe to be releasably held by the terminal block for hands free testing. The probe tip includes two conductors adapted for contact with the isolating pin terminals of the terminal block. The terminal block probe includes a socket that releasably receives a plug of a multi-meter cable. Internal wiring of the probe extends from the socket and connects with the two conductors of the tip. When the plug of the multi-meter cable is received within the socket, the conductors of the tip are in electrical continuity with the wires of the multi-meter cable and thus the multi-meter.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2006Date of Patent: November 14, 2006Inventors: Eric A. Armstrong, Ken Rhodes

Publication number: 20040258798Abstract: A system and method for making an enhanced cheese product includes a milk processing system for developing cheese curd, and a mixing means which mixes the cheese curd and the enhancing agent. By applying negative pressure to a mixture of cheese curd and enhancing agent, the enhancing agent can be drawn into the cheese curds. The enhancing agent may include whey protein to increase product. Likewise, probotics, fat substitute, enzymes and flavorings may be added to the cheese curds to produce cheese products with reduced spoilage, decreased fat, accelerated ripening or new flavors.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 3, 2004Publication date: December 23, 2004Inventor: Ken Rhodes

Patent number: 5751270Abstract: A method and apparatus for displaying an image in a system having an image generation subsystem and an image display subsystem. The image generation subsystem provides digital data corresponding to the image. The image generation subsystem writes the digital data directly to a memory of the image display subsystem. The image display subsystem displays the digital data.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 1993Date of Patent: May 12, 1998Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Ken Rhodes, Rohan Coelho, Blake Bender, Davis Frank

Patent number: 5652601Abstract: A method and apparatus for displaying an image in a system having an image generation subsystem and an image display subsystem. The image generation subsystem provides digital data corresponding to the image in a first color format. The image generation subsystem then copies the first color format digital data to a memory of the image display subsystem. The image display subsystem converts the digital data from the first color format to a second color format and displays the converted digital data.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 1995Date of Patent: July 29, 1997Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Rohan Coelho, Ken Rhodes

Patent number: 5572232Abstract: A method and apparatus for displaying an image in a system having an image generation subsystem and an image display subsystem. The image generation subsystem provides digital data corresponding to the image and interrogates the image display subsystem to determine image display subsystem capabilities for at least one of (1) color format support, (2) access to an image display subsystem memory, and (3) window management. The image generation subsystem and the image display subsystem then process the digital data in accordance with the results of the interrogation. The image display subsystem then displays the processed digital data.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 1993Date of Patent: November 5, 1996Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Ken Rhodes, Rohan Coelho, Davis Frank, Blake Bender

Patent number: 5552803Abstract: A method and apparatus for displaying an image in a system having an image generation subsystem and an image display subsystem. The image generation subsystem is provided information regarding image display subsystem capabilities (i.e., image color formats and data transfer modes). The image generation subsystem generates for display test images based on permutations of those capabilities and generates image color priority lists based on the display results. The image generation subsystem is then provided digital data and image display parameters corresponding to the image. The image generation subsystem selects an image color format and a data transfer mode for the image based on the priority lists and the image display parameters, and then processes the image for display using the selected image color format and data transfer mode. The image display subsystem then displays the image.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 1993Date of Patent: September 3, 1996Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Ken Rhodes, Rohan Coelho, Wendy Yee
