  • Publication number: 20190138586
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for intelligently adapting content presented in electronic forms. In some embodiments, a processor provides access to multiple instances of a first version of an electronic form by multiple clients based on determining that insufficient data exists in a data source for a category of information. The first version of the form can include content for soliciting data associated with the category of information. The processor can receive responsive electronic communications in response to providing access to the first version of the form. The processor can provide access to multiple instances of a second version of the electronic form by multiple clients based on determining from the received responses whether sufficient data exists for the category of information. The second version of the electronic form can omit or replace the content for soliciting data associated with the category of information.

  • Publication number: 20190052473
    Abstract: Techniques and systems for synchronized accessibility for client devices in an online conference are described. For example, a conferencing system receives presentation content and audio content as part of the online conference from a client device. The conferencing system generates sign language content by converting audio in the audio content to sign language. The conferencing system then synchronizes display of the sign language content with the presentation content in a user interface based on differences in durations of segments of the audio content from durations of corresponding segments of the sign language content. Then, the conferencing system outputs the sign language content as synchronized with the presentation content, such as to a viewer client device that requested the sign language content, or to storage for later access by viewers that request sign language content.

  • Patent number: 10169374
    Abstract: Techniques to facilitate image searches using context of an image frame in a document are described. In one or more implementations, an image frame included within a document is detected, such as when the frame is inserted or selected. Content in the document in the vicinity of the image frame is analyzed to derive query terms corresponding to the content. Tag elements created for the query terms are exposed to enable selection of individual query terms as search parameters. An image search is conducted using selected query terms and images returned as results of the search are presented a candidates for insertion into the frame. Previews of images as being inserted in the image frame can be exposed show how the document would look with different images placed in the frame. Selection of a particular image from the arrangement causes insertion of the particular image into the image frame.

  • Publication number: 20180285930
    Abstract: In implementations of a service system to determine journeys based on companion relationship, a server computing device maintains event information about events associated with previous visitors within a designated geographic region, and a devices graph that correlates user identities with devices. A journey determination application can receive an indication that a mobile device has entered the designated geographic region, and correlate the mobile device to an identity of a user. A companion device that is associated with the mobile device can be determined based on companionship information identifying the association of the devices, and the companion device correlates to a companion. The journey determination application determines a journey based on a relationship of the companion to the user of the mobile device and based on the events associated with the previous visitors within the designated geographic region, the journey being designed to elicit a location-based visitor response from the user.

  • Patent number: 10062100
    Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein identify visitors who visit a real-world shopping venue as belonging to a group. This involves tracking a physical action of a visitor present at the real-world shopping venue and identifying the visitor based on the tracked physical action and previously collected visitor information associated with the venue. The visitor is determined to be a member of a group based on the previously collected visitor information. Based on determining that the visitor is a member of the group, a notification is sent to another member of the group. The notification identifies that the visitor has placed at least one item in a sharing cart while the visitor is present at the real-world shopping venue.

  • Patent number: 10044973
    Abstract: In one embodiment, at least one of number of times a frame is paused by a plurality of users (users) and attention-activity of the users for the frame is tracked for each frame of an asset (video etc.). An interactive version of at least one frame is pre-generated based on the tracking. The interactive version is stored to enable playing of the interactive version of the at least one frame. In another embodiment, pausing of a currently playing frame (frame) of the asset is determined. A determination to replace the frame is made based on at least one of attention-activity of a user in the frame, and detecting metadata, of the frame, specifying that the frame is to be replaced. An interactive version of the frame is generated, based on at least one of the attention of the user and the metadata, to replace the frame with the interactive version.
