  • Publication number: 20230075861
    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating an interactive rotatable 360-degree presentation of an object are disclosed. The methods and systems obtain data describing the object, where the data includes information about a number of images of the object, as well as additional information about the object. The images are automatically obtained and rearranged into at least one sequence of images substantially evenly distributed around 360 degrees. It is determined whether to add hotspot(s) to image(s), and if hotspot(s) are to be added, the hotspot(s) are automatically added to the image(s). The ordered images of the sequence(s) are then merged into an interactive rotatable 360-degree presentation of the object.

  • Patent number: 11321743
    Abstract: An apparatus is provided for generating rich media ad units. The apparatus may be configured to receive an inventory feed and a feature feed. The inventory feed may include a plurality of product identifiers. The feature feed may include a plurality of features, each of the plurality of features being associated with at least one of the plurality of product identifiers. The apparatus may select, based on consumer metrics, a product identifier from the plurality of product identifiers. The apparatus may generate, based on the consumer metrics, a feature subset including a subset of the plurality of features associated with the product identifier. The apparatus may generate, based on the feature subset, a rich media ad unit. Related methods and apparatuses are also provided.
