  • Adaptive digital media content presentation and control platform
    Patent number: 11463768
    Abstract: A system and method for displaying digital media files is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system includes a user interface, a media file decryptor, an ad manager, an intersplicer, and a media player. The user interface receives input from a user indicating the selection of media files to be presented. The media file decryptor receives and decrypts the selected media files. The ad manager receives and manages ad files from an ad file source. The intersplicer combines the media files with the ad files by providing control signals to the media player, causing the media player to present the ad files with the selected media files.

  • Interactive digital media and advertising presentation platform
    Patent number: 10986403
    Abstract: A system and method for displaying digital media files with compulsory advertisement files is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system includes a user interface, a media file decryptor, an ad manager, an intersplicer, and a media player. The user interface receives input from a user indicating the selection of media files to be presented. The media file decryptor receives and decrypts the selected media files. The ad manager receives and manages ad files from an ad file source. The intersplicer combines the media files with the ad files by providing control signals to the media player, causing the media player to present the ad files with the selected media files. Various embodiments of the invention facilitate the wide distribution of media content in a way that allows the free use of media properties, on demand, with direct consumer exchange capabilities, while at the same time enabling compensation to copyright holders.

  • Method of making a cubic boron nitride bipolar transistor
    Patent number: 5227318
    Abstract: A bipolar transistor is formed from epitaxial cubic boron nitride grown on a silicon substrate which is a three to two commensurate layer deposited by pulsed laser evaporation techniques. The thin film, cubic boron nitride bipolar transistor is in epitaxial registry with an underlying single crystal silicon substrate. The bipolar transistor is particularly suitable for high temperature applications.
