Abstract: Primary content can be provided to a first device, wherein the primary content can comprise at least a first portion and a second portion. A provider can determine a user parameter related to secondary content, interspersed with the first and second portions of the primary content, and can provide the secondary content to a second device instead of to the first device, based on the user parameter. The provider can provide the second portion of the primary content to the first device immediately following the first portion of the primary content.

Abstract: This application describes methods, systems, and apparatus for allowing a user to easily determine whether the user and/or other user(s) have viewed content. For example, a program guide may display one or more graphics associated with the content (e.g., a movie poster), and in response to determining whether the user has viewed the content, the program guide may include an indication of whether the user has viewed the content. The program guide may include indications associated with multiple users (e.g., different colors, icons, graphics, or text). The program guide may filter the content based on whether the user has viewed the content (e.g., only display content the user has not viewed). A computing device storing the content may manage recording of the content based on whether the user has viewed the content (e.g., delete the recording if the user has viewed the content). A viewing history of the user may be maintained.

The processor configured to calculate at least one of a workload group consisting of: the first processing pipeline workload, the second processing pipeline workload, and combinations thereof; and select the first processing pipeline or the second processing pipeline to execute the first instruction type based upon at least one of the workload group.

Abstract: A cleaning device includes a base member, support member, extension member and a cleaning member. The base member includes a width having a first distal end and a first proximal end. The support member includes a width having a second distal end and a second proximal end. The support member is positioned at an upwardly extending angle with respect to the base member. The extension member extends from the second distal end of the support member. The cleaning member includes an attachment surface and a contact surface. The attachment surface is formed with an inner channel and is operably coupled to the base member proximate one of the first distal end and the first proximal end. The contact surface is adapted to come in contact with a cleaning surface to dislodge and collect debris.

Abstract: The invention introduces the Master Algorithm, an AI network that facilitates seamless collaboration among diverse algorithms. Each algorithm functions as a specialized node in the network, contributing expertise in areas like image generation, speech recognition, and statistical analysis. Users submit inputs or requests to the Master Algorithm, which intelligently assigns them to the appropriate algorithms for processing. After the individual algorithms have completed their tasks, the Master Algorithm combines their outputs to generate a final result, which is then delivered back to the user. The network's structure, communication protocols, and data flow are meticulously designed to optimize performance, scalability, and security. By integrating and harnessing the strengths of various algorithms, the Master Algorithm offers a robust solution for a wide array of applications spanning healthcare, finance, and entertainment.

Abstract: An indicia-reading module is capable of integration into the smallest face of thin-profile smart device. The module employs chip-on-board packaging and a customized sensor enclosure to eliminate the stack-up height found in conventional packaging. The module also employs a customized frame to reduce volume by integrating circuit subassembly circuit boards into a unique architecture and by serving as the lenses for the illuminator and the aimer, thereby eliminating the need for any extra lenses or holders.

Abstract: Systems and methods for compositing real-world video with a virtual object are disclosed. In one embodiment a method is disclosed that includes generating via a processor a virtual representation on a display of a location of interest based in part on unmanned vehicle information collected by an unmanned vehicle, positioning, the via the processor, a virtual object in the virtual representation on the display of the location of interest based on a user input, where the virtual representation of the location of interest includes a rendered view of the virtual object; updating, via the processor, the rendered view of the virtual object on the display as the unmanned vehicle moves between a first aerial position and a second aerial position, where the rendered view of the virtual object changes from a first perspective view corresponding to the first aerial position to a second perspective view corresponding to the second aerial position.

Abstract: A cleaning device includes a base member extending with a first distal end and a first proximal end. The first proximal end is at an angle relative to the first distal end. A support member extends between a second distal end and a second proximal end. At least one support flange couples the base member and the support member. An extension member extends from the second distal end. At least one teeth member comprises a contact surface and an attachment surface. The attachment surface is formed with an inner channel, and the inner channel is coupled with one of the first distal and proximal ends. The contact surface has outer flanges with an outer channel formed therein. The contact surface is adapted to come in contact with a cleaning surface such that the outer flanges penetrate the cleaning surface to dislodge and collect debris.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for displaying content. In an aspect, a plurality of content items can be displayed on one user device according to user preference. An example method can comprise positioning a first set of pixels associated with a user device so that first content displayed via the first set of pixels can be viewable in a first viewing location. A second set of pixels associated with the user device can be positioned so that second content displayed via the second set of pixels can be viewable in a second viewing location. The second content can be different from the first content.

Abstract: Systems and methods for compositing real-world video with a virtual object are disclosed. In one embodiment the system includes a processor; and a computer-readable non-transitory storage medium, the medium encoded with instructions that when executed cause the processor to perform operations including receiving video of a video capture region from a camera coupled to an unmanned vehicle; obtaining a map representation of the video capture region; placing the virtual object into the map representation; rendering the video with the virtual object to generate a rendered video; displaying the rendered video; and based on an elevation of the unmanned vehicle, updating the virtual object to transition between a top view of the virtual object and an elevation view or perspective view of the virtual object.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for monitoring of one or more A/V collection devices within a premises. Based on the monitoring, one or more computing devices may determine whether to route or block a data transmission outside a premises. The data transmission may be routed or blocked based on, for example, one or more of the following: whether a transmission window associated with an A/V collection device is open or closed; whether the data transmission is being sent to an authorized destination device; whether the data transmission is encrypted, and the like.
