  • Publication number: 20250325892
    Abstract: A hockey puck is disclosed including an internal signal transmitter enabling instantaneous identification of its position as it moves around. The puck includes two molded subcomponents, which encapsulate the signal transmitter. The signal transmitter includes driver electronics and a number of signal transmitters which together generate and emit an electromagnetic signal. The electromagnetic signal is emitted by a plurality of diodes mounted in light pipes enclosed within cavities in the subcomponents that extend to outer surfaces of the hockey puck components. The puck includes two subcomponents that are attached via complimentary sets of concentrically arranged wedges.

  • Publication number: 20250232338
    Abstract: A method of multi-platform social media advertising via digital overlays on real-time video feeds. The method includes providing a host platform, providing third-party social media platforms, providing a host streamer profile managed by the host platform, receiving an advertisement selection with the host platform from the host streamer profile, designating a specific advertisement element from advertisement elements based on the advertisement selection, receiving input through a streamer interface of the host streamer profile to select a subordinate platform from the third-party social media platforms, initializing a real-time video feed associated with the host streamer profile on the host platform, simultaneously broadcasting the real-time video feed to each of the subordinate platform, and outputting, by the host platform, the specific advertisement element as an overlay on the real-time video feed on the real-time video feed.

  • Patent number: 12200275
    Abstract: A method of multi-platform social media advertising and revenue sharing via digital overlays on real-time video feeds enables a host streamer profile to select and display one or more advertisement elements on a real-time video feed, which is broadcast on a host social media platform in addition to being broadcast to one or more third-party platforms. The advertisements may be chosen through various means and customized by advertisers according to desired parameters. Each advertisement is associated with a financial compensation amount. After an advertisement or advertisements are displayed on the real-time video feed, the financial compensation amount is distributed among the host streamer profile, the host platform, and each of the at least one social media platform, thus incentivizing each to participate in the social media advertising and revenue sharing system.
