Abstract: A video game system for providing a single game play instance for multiple clients each utilizing a different game platform. The system includes a first game platform executing a virtual reality game on a virtual reality system and a second game platform executing a game having a similar representation of the virtual reality game modified for the second game platform. The first game platform and second game platform communicate with each other to provide a single instance game space for the first game platform and second game platform.

Abstract: Systems and accompanying methods are provided for real-time pixel switching in video. A video having first and second portions is provided and is presented to a user, with the first video portion being initially visible to the user and the second video portion not initially visible to the user. During presentation of the video, a user interaction with the first video portion is received, and a selected region of the second video portion is identified based thereon, where the selected region defines a subset of pixels from the second video portion. The selected region is then overlaid on the first video portion, and playback of the second video portion and the first video portion is synchronized.

Abstract: A disposable toothbrush, comprising a first section (12) having a first proximate end (16) and a first distal end (18), a second section (22) having a second proximate end (28) and a first distal end (25), a plurality of bristles (20) coupled to the first distal end (18), a plug (30) sealingly disposed within the second section (22) and thereby forming a compartment (26) within the second section (22) between the plug (30) and the second proximate end (28), a quantity of powdered dentifrice disposed within the compartment (26) and a sealing means (32) sealingly disposed on the second proximate end (28) in order to seal the compartment (26) wherein the first proximate end (16) has a smaller cross-sectional dimension than the second distal end (25) so that the first section (12) may be placed in frictional, sliding engagement with the second section (22) when the first proximate end (16) is inserted into the second distal end (25).
