  • Patent number: 9323767
    Abstract: Systems and methods that allow for an intelligence platform for distributed processing of big data sets including both structured and unstructured data types across two or more intelligent data operation engine servers. The intelligent data operation engine servers can form a conceptual understanding of content in each electronic file and then cooperates with a distributed index handler to index the conceptual understanding of the electronic file. A query pipeline and the distributed index handler in the intelligence platform cooperate with the two or more intelligent data operation engine servers to improve scalability and performance on the big data sets containing both structured and un-structured electronic files represented in the common index.

  • Patent number: 9292877
    Abstract: Methods for automatically recommending hash tags for use with comments generated by the comment authors comprise analyzing existing comments to determine reach and influence of authors of the existing comment, and hash tags and keywords that are included in the existing comments. The methods further comprise using the comment and linked content of links included in the existing comment to determine concept information associated with the existing comments, where the concept information is determined using a server computing system configured with an Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL) application, and where the concept information, the reach and influence information, the keywords and the hash tags are stored in a hash tag database.

  • Publication number: 20160027221
    Abstract: According to an example, a computer may receive characteristics information of an object in a video stream captured by a first computing device, generate a signature based on the characteristics information, identify an augmented reality information associated with the signature, transmit the augmented reality information to the first computing device, receive, from a second computing device, a set of characteristics information of the object in an image captured by the second computing device, determine that the set of characteristics information from the second computing device has a second signature that matches the signature generated based on the characteristics information received form the first computing device, and transmit the identified augmented reality information to the second computing device.

  • Publication number: 20160028842
    Abstract: A downloadable reminder application uses object recognition technology to recognize one or more objects appearing on a display screen of the mobile computing device and matches them to a set of known target objects. The downloadable reminder application process any associated trigger conditions for the target object. The downloadable reminder application then sets the future reminder for the target object to activate. The downloadable reminder application when it detects that a mobile computing device is satisfying the trigger condition for a target object for which it has set a future reminder on, then the downloadable reminder application in the mobile computing device fires the future reminder that was set for that target object and provides the alert to the user along with any triggerable contributions associated with that target object.

  • Publication number: 20160004928
    Abstract: At least a computer-implemented method and an apparatus for processing an image are described. In examples, numeric values for at least one property of the image are determined. These values are then converted into at least one corresponding text character, said conversion being independent of any text content within the image. This enables a text representation of the image to be generated that contains said plurality of text characters. This text representation may be used to index and search for the image.

  • Patent number: 9066200
    Abstract: The systems and methods allow users of mobile computing devices to generate augmented reality scenarios. Augmented reality content is paired with a real world trigger item to generate the augmented reality scenario. The augmented reality content is overlaid onto frames on a video when a trigger item is detected. Each mobile computing device may have an augmented reality application resident on the mobile computing device to allow a user to generate the augmented reality scenarios.

  • Patent number: 9064326
    Abstract: An augmented reality application is coded to operate on a mobile computing device. A routine allocates a portion of a memory in the mobile computing to be a local cache for the downloadable application to store augmented reality content and information and characteristics concerning a plurality of real world trigger items. A space utilization algorithm and a content selection algorithm are incorporated into the augmented reality application. The amount and ways the real world trigger items and augmented reality content are stored is balanced against an amount of memory space set or allowed for a size of the local cache on that particular mobile computing device.

  • Publication number: 20140225924
    Abstract: The systems and methods may allow mobile computing devices to identify real world trigger items and to cause augmented reality scenarios associated with a real world trigger item to be presented on a display of the mobile computing device. A lookup scheme may identify indexed feature points of known candidate trigger items stored in a database. A number of evaluations occur between the indexed feature points to the feature points found in the real world trigger item. A determination that the feature points of a candidate trigger item matches the feature points of the real world trigger item is made when a confidence threshold is met or exceeded based on at least the look up scheme, weighted factor evaluation, variable threshold evaluation and potentially a geometric consistency evaluation to declare a positive match.
