  • Patent number: 11437072
    Abstract: A layered-keyframe-based, presentation recording service provides for presentation recording sessions, the recording of presentations, and the creation of presentation videos. A user records with the user's device the document pages and page annotations, as well audio and video streams, that are presented using the device during the course of a presentation recording session. The pages, annotations and video streams are efficiently and separately recorded as keyframes. These keyframes are used as document, annotation and video layers to create layered keyframes. A presentation video is created from the layered keyframes and the recorded audio stream. Users can then playback presentation videos at a time, place and manner that is available to, accessible by and/or convenient to them.

  • Publication number: 20200143461
    Abstract: An application service that provides for custom, transaction-based interactions between users of an application and transactional systems external to that application and for creating a record of those interactions. Users participate in online transactions by responding to requests from external systems in real-time and from within the application. Singular, customized user interfaces, such as icons, are generated in real time for the particular transactional system's requests and the corresponding user's responses during the performance of a transaction. Records of the transactional requests and user responses are created so that transactions may be audited.

  • Publication number: 20190236547
    Abstract: Technology is disclosed for an online collaboration service that provides for online collaboration sessions, and the recording and playback of those online sessions (the “technology”). The technology enables two or more users to communicate in real-time by sharing streaming data, such as audio or video streams. The technology enables those users to take collaborative actions, such as posting messages, sharing files, sharing screens, annotating virtual whiteboards and allowing remote control of their devices. Metadata associated with users' collaborative actions are shown during the session in an activity timeline. The technology enables users to record and playback online collaboration sessions and their associated timelines. During playback, users are provided with navigation capabilities for both the streaming data and its associated activity timeline, individually and in conjunction.

  • Patent number: 9992241
    Abstract: Technology is disclosed for a unified communications service (UCS) that converts an audio call to an online collaboration session where users collaborate using one or more collaboration services while continuing to converse on the audio call without interruption (the “technology”). The technology enables two or more users, who are engaged in a voice conversation, to start a collaboration service. Collaboration service includes such services as, e.g., file sharing, screen sharing, video conferencing, and whiteboarding. These collaboration services are started without disconnecting the ongoing audio call, and/or leaving any user interface used for that call.

  • Patent number: 9703792
    Abstract: Technology is disclosed for organizing, managing and sharing data files as pages of an online binder (“the technology”). In various embodiments, the technology stores multiple data files received in multiple formats from multiple sources as pages of the online binder. The pages of the online binder are of a common format. The common format allows the pages, that is, the data files corresponding to the pages, to be accessed using a variety of devices regardless of a platform of the devices. The online binder is platform agnostic. The technology provides tools to create notes for the pages of the online binder. The notes can include text annotations, drawings, or audio visual annotations, including a recording of the user actions as presented on the device of the user. The technology provides a collaboration service for sharing the online binder with multiple users asynchronously or in real-time.

  • Patent number: 7814150
    Abstract: In accordance with one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a method for initiating an online meeting over a data network between a host party with a first computer and an attendee party with a second computer. Consider that a phone connection already exists over a telephone network between a first phone of the host party and a second phone of the attendee party. A start meeting message is sent over the data network to a data center. A meeting identification is subsequently received from the data center. The meeting identification is stored in a first device that is coupled to both the first phone and the first computer, and the meeting identification is transmitted from the first device over the telephone network to a second device, where the second device is coupled to both the second phone and the second computer.
