Patents by Inventor Theodore Alteneder

Theodore Alteneder has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10019345
    Abstract: Particular embodiments provide a test system that allows the testing of different versions. The test system uses a repository of features that are included in the multiple versions of the application. When new features are added to the application, they may be added to the repository. When a test is performed, an application blueprint is used to build an application model using features from the repository. Then, a test case for the version can be run using the application model. By maintaining the repository of features and then dynamically building the application model for the version of the application, the testing of different versions of the application can be performed.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9633570
    Abstract: Systems and methods for teaching in a virtual learning environment. In one example method comprises displaying a problem on a graphical user interface (GUI) of a computing system, receiving a user input of one or more potential solutions to the problem, animating, via the GUI, one or more graphical representations of the one or more potential solutions, receiving a user input selecting a first one of the one or more potential solutions, and displaying, on the GUI, an animation that illustrates a workability or accuracy of the one or more potential solutions.

  • Patent number: 9449415
    Abstract: Method and system for presenting a lesson plan having a plurality of keyframes is provided. The method includes initializing a fixed variable for a first keyframe; detecting an input from a user at an interactive display device; correlating the input with a gesture from a gesture set and one or more of database domains from among a plurality of database domains; displaying an image at the interactive display device when all mutable variables for the first keyframe content are determined based on the input; manipulating the image using a gesture associated with the displayed image and any associated database domains; and transitioning to a next keyframe using animation.
