Publication number: 20230223048Abstract: A video is generated from an audio file by transcribing the audio file into texts and breaking the audio file into one or more segments or shots used as scenes. A media piece is then matched to each shot; the media pieces are properly contextualized based on the text or attributes of the audio associated with the shot, the overall script or theme, an intended audience, or other factors. The resulting video is then created by stitching the media pieces together.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2023Publication date: July 13, 2023Inventors: Jeremy Toeman, John Thomas White, Scott Hilton Havird, Alex Gurzhi, Niranjan Salimath

Patent number: 9183313Abstract: A system for providing position-related information to a mobile user includes a mobile unit and a central site server. The mobile unit includes circuitry for determining present position information from position signals which may emanate from, for example, GPS satellites. The mobile unit further includes circuitry for establishing a wireless bidirectional communications link with the central site server via a terrestrial network, which may be accessed via a cellular telephone network. The central site server includes circuitry for receiving the present position information from the mobile unit. A table stored at the central site server includes different response information in correspondence with possible positions of the mobile unit. The response information may further be in correspondence with user preferences.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2011Date of Patent: November 10, 2015Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Michael L. Giniger, Warren Scott Hilton

Patent number: 8870123Abstract: A dual purpose deployment line for a parachute system is disclosed. The system includes a main line and a plurality of cascading release loops disposed proximate a first end of the main line. The plurality of cascading release loops are configured to be releasably secured to an aircraft anchor ring. The deployment line includes a release pin secured to a first end of the release line, where the release pin is in communication with the plurality of cascading release loops and adapted to pull free and release the cascading release loops from the anchor ring when a parachute is deployed. An optional locking pin is adapted to selectively secure the plurality of cascading release loops in place when desired to retain the deployment line to the anchor ring when the parachute is deployed and the release pin is pulled free.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2013Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: Aerial Delivery Solutions, LLCInventors: Frank Deazley, Scott Hilton

Patent number: 8526971Abstract: A system for providing position-related information to a mobile user includes a central site server and mobile unit that has circuitry for allowing a user selection and for receiving position signals that may emanate from, for example, GPS satellites. The mobile unit further includes circuitry for establishing a wireless bidirectional communications link with the central site server via a terrestrial network such as a cellular telephone network, and sending position information and selection signals to the central site server. The central site server includes circuitry for receiving the present position information and selection signals selected by the user. Responsive thereto, the central site server retrieves corresponding response information, which is sent to the mobile unit via the bidirectional communications link. In one embodiment, communications between the mobile unit and the central site server are encrypted.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2007Date of Patent: September 3, 2013Assignee: SnapTrack, Inc.Inventors: Michael L. Giniger, Warren Scott Hilton

Publication number: 20120305713Abstract: A method of controlling a ram air parachute using a variable trim platform is disclosed. In a particular embodiment, the method includes securing a front trim control line between a front portion of the variable trim platform and a guidance control unit and securing a rear trim control line between a rear portion of the variable trim platform and the guidance control unit. The method also includes securing ram air parachute suspension lines between the variable trim platform and the parachute and securing guidance unit risers between the variable trim platform and the guidance unit. An attachment point of the guidance unit risers to the variable trim platform is separate from an attachment point of the suspension lines to the platform to create a pivot point for the variable trim platform to rotate about.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2012Publication date: December 6, 2012Applicant: Aerial Delivery Solutions, LLCInventors: Frank Deazley, Scott Hilton

Patent number: 8123171Abstract: A load assisted release system for releasably connecting cargo to a primary delivery vehicle, including a releasable connector and a bridle. The bridle includes a bridle attachment point, a slack loop, a first stage release link connecting a slack loop upper end to a slack loop lower end, and a responsive point in the bridle responsive to a releasing of the first stage release link to cause the releasable connector to release the bridle from the primary delivery vehicle once the first stage release link is released and the responsive point has moved away from the slack loop upper end the second predetermined distance. The releasable connector is configured to connect the bridle to the primary delivery vehicle, and a release force required to move the responsive point in the bridle the second predetermined distance is generated by the cargo as it moves away from the primary delivery vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2009Date of Patent: February 28, 2012Assignee: S.E., Inc.Inventors: Charles O. McHugh, Scott Hilton, Frank Deazley
