Publication number: 20250126541Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for providing distributed content to a mobile device (e.g., in a mobile vehicle) through multiple content access points along a particular route are presented. In some embodiments, a computing device may receive a selection of media content and a selection of a particular route from a plurality of routes to enable navigation of a mobile vehicle from a start point to an end point calculated based on at least a number of content access points along each route. A computing device may divide the media content into a plurality of segments and send each segment to a respective planned content access point of a plurality of planned content access points along the particular route. In some embodiments, a mobile computing device within a mobile vehicle may receive a segment from each planned content access point to enable continuous uninterrupted playback of the media content.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2024Publication date: April 17, 2025Inventors: David O'Hare, Kenneth Grantham, Irma Torero, Robert John, Lisa Wright, Jeffrey Stoller, Michael Toole, Kristine Beach, Brent Vannier, Terry Mahnke, Sandra Driscoll

Publication number: 20230394511Abstract: An integrated system and method for the determination of consumer insights through social media content and analyzing the market trends. The present integrated system is differentiating from conventional platforms in determining consumer insights by combining three different data results derived from three modules: data listening module to predict consumer sentiment towards a brand or company; a survey module allows customization of survey while targeting a group of participants by defining a set of target demographic attributes; and content creation module allowing content creation by the participants which can be text or media content from a target group of participants and also allows monopolization of such media content.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2022Publication date: December 7, 2023Inventors: Kemdi EBI, Ikezi KAMANU, Joshua TABANSI, Robert JOHN
