Patent number: 11615131Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for enabling storytelling on a computing device. A processor: (a) analyzes a first set of media items associated with the user, each media item having associated metadata; (b) identifies one or more related characteristics among the media items in the first set; (c) forms a cluster of media items associated with an event based on the identified one or more related characteristics; (d) repeats steps (a) and (b) for a second set of media items, each media item in the second set having associated metadata and related to a social connection of the user; (e) adds media items in the second set, from a social media site associated with the second set, to the cluster; (f) edits selected media items in the cluster to fit into selected templates; and (g) creates a mixed-media module comprising the templates organized into a desired sequence.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2019Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Doug Imbruce, Gregory Pape, Gustav Johan Rasmus Knutsson

Patent number: 11099714Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to implementations involving creation, viewing, playing sharing and/or utilization of information modules, such as mixed-media modules. A processor communicates a mixed-media module creator interface to a first client device. The mixed-media module creator interface is configured to enable a first user of the first client device to create a mixed-media module, the mixed-media module comprising both an updatable portion and a searchable portion, and communicating a mixed-media module player interface to a second client device, the mixed-media module player interface different than the mixed-media module creator interface and configured to enable a second user using the second client device to play the mixed-media module in a non-linear format.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2013Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: VERIZON MEDIA INC.Inventors: Doug Imbruce, Owen Bossola, Rasmus Knutsson, Hakim El Hattab, Tommy Chheng

Patent number: 10565245Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for enabling storytelling on a computing device. A processor analyzes a set of media items associated with the user, each media item having associated metadata. The processor identifies one or more related characteristics among the media items in the set to form a cluster of media items associated with an event associated with the user. The processor selects, based on analysis of the media items in the cluster, templates from a template database, each template of the plurality of templates configured to represent a moment in the event. The processor edits selected media items in the cluster to fit into the selected templates. The processor scores each selected template based on the metadata associated with the selected media items in the selected template. The processor creates a mixed-media module of predetermined duration comprising the templates organized into a desired sequence.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2013Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Assignee: OATH INC.Inventors: Doug Imbruce, Gregory Pape, Gustav Johan Rasmus Knutsson

Patent number: 10546010Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for enabling storytelling on a computing device. A processor analyzes a set of media items associated with a user, where each media item has associated metadata. The processor identifies, based on analysis of the associated metadata, one or more related characteristics among the media items in the set to form a cluster of media items associated with an event. The processor selects, based on analysis of the media items in the cluster, a plurality of templates from a template database, where each template is configured to represent a moment in the event. The processor edits selected media items in the cluster to fit into the selected templates. The processor creates a mixed-media module including the plurality of templates organized into a desired sequence for the selected templates.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2013Date of Patent: January 28, 2020Assignee: OATH INC.Inventors: Doug Imbruce, Gregory Pape, Gustav Johan Rasmus Knutsson

Patent number: 10417289Abstract: Provided herein are mixed-media modules with functional layers that can be used to provided additional information to targeted audience. Systems and methods are disclosed for performing processing involved with search, such as processing search information to return search results. In one exemplary implementation, there is provided a method for processing information to return search results including mixed-media media presentation(s) selectable by a user. Moreover, such method may involve user interaction to manipulate the presentation, display various media and/or effect other functionality. Further implementations may involve generation of interactive, visually rich mixed-media content of high information density providing improved user experience and/or improved value to various participants.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2013Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: OATH INC.Inventors: Doug Imbruce, Owen Bossola, Rasmus Knutsson, Tommy Chheng, Hakim El Hattab
