  • Patent number: 11938406
    Abstract: In various examples, compute resources may be allocated for highlight generation in cloud gaming systems. Systems and methods are disclosed that distribute, between and among various devices, processing including user interface generation and overlay, analysis of game streams for actionable events, generation of highlights, storage of highlights, and sharing of highlights. The distribution of processing or compute resources within the cloud gaming system may be dependent on system information of various devices and/or networks. Recordings, snapshots, and/or other highlights may be generated within the cloud gaming system using the determined distribution of compute resources.

  • Patent number: 11811129
    Abstract: A remotely controllable antenna mount for use with a wireless telecommunication antenna provides both mechanical azimuth and mechanical tilt adjustment using AISG compatible motor control units and AISG control and monitoring systems to remotely adjust the physical orientation of the antenna. The mount control units are serially interconnected with existing AISG antenna control units (ACU's) which adjust internal electronic tilt of the antenna. The present solution provides the ability to both physically aim the antenna to adjust coverage area and also adjust the signal phase to fine tune the quality of the signal.

  • Patent number: 11804651
    Abstract: A remotely controllable antenna mount for use with a wireless telecommunication antenna provides mechanical azimuth and tilt adjustment using AISG compatible motor control units and AISG control and monitoring systems to remotely adjust the physical orientation of the antenna. An AISG compatible mount azimuth control unit drives rotatable movement of the antenna through a range of azimuth angle positions. An AISG compatible mount tilt control unit drives linear movement of an actuator assembly and corresponding pivoting of the antenna through a range of tilt angle positions. Antennas can be remotely controlled relative to each other or in tandem.

  • Publication number: 20230277944
    Abstract: Automated detection of events in content can be performed using regions of information associated with various user interface or display elements. Certain elements can be indicative of a type of event, and regions associated with these elements can be analyzed on a per-frame basis. If one of these primary regions shows a state or transition that is indicative of one of these events, one or more secondary regions can be analyzed as well to attempt to verify whether that event occurred, as well as whether that event qualifies for selection for additional use. Selected events can be used for purposes such as to generate highlight montages, training videos, or user profiles. These events may be positioned at different layers of an event hierarchy, where child regions are only analyzed for frames where a parent region is indicative of a type of event.

  • Publication number: 20230121413
    Abstract: In examples, a device's native input interface (e.g., a soft keyboard) may be invoked using interaction areas associated with image frames from an application, such as a game. An area of an image frame(s) from a streamed game video may be designated (e.g., by the game and/or a game server) as an interaction area. When an input event associated with the interaction area is detected, an instruction may be issued to the client device to invoke a user interface (e.g., a soft keyboard) of the client device and may cause the client device to present a graphical input interface. Inputs made to the presented graphical input interface may be accessed by the game streaming client and provided to the game instance.

  • Publication number: 20230071358
    Abstract: In various examples, natural language processing may be performed on text generated by a game to extract one or more in-game events from the game. The system (e.g., a client device and/or server) may receive the text in the form of one or more strings generated by a game application. The system may then extract one or more in-game events from the text using natural language processing. The game may include the text in a message it sends to the system (e.g., using an Application Programming Interface (API)) and/or in a game log entry or notification. The text may be generated based at least on the game determining one or more conditions are satisfied in the gameplay (e.g., victory, points scored, milestones, eliminations, item acquisition, etc.). The text may be mapped to event templates, which may then be used to extract parameters of events therefrom.

  • Patent number: 10944169
    Abstract: A remotely controllable antenna mount (100) for use with a wireless telecommunication antenna (102) provides mechanical azimuth and tilt adjustment using AISG compatible motor control units (171/192) and AISG control and monitoring systems to remotely adjust the physical orientation of the antenna. The mount control units are serially interconnected with AISG antenna control units (ACUs) (104) which adjust electronic tilt mechanisms within the antenna itself. An AISG compatible mount azimuth control unit (MACU) (171) drives rotatable movement of the antenna through a range of azimuth angle positions. The antenna mount further includes a mechanical downtilt assembly interconnected between the antenna interface and the antenna. An AISG compatible mount tilt control unit (MTCU) (192) drives linear expansion of a scissor assembly (186) and corresponding pivoting of the antenna through a range of tilt angle positions.
