  • Publication number: 20240161176
    Abstract: Disclosed techniques enable cluster-based dynamic content with multi-dimensional vectors for video content analysis. User-specific data vectors on a plurality of users are accessed, which include shopping history and video consumption behavior. A plurality of clusters, based on the user-specific data vectors, is developed. A user, from the plurality of users, is associated with one or more clusters from the plurality of clusters. The user is identified as viewing media content. A container unit is inserted into the media content that is being viewed and is populated with at least one short-form video from a library of short-form videos. The populating is based on the identifying. An ecommerce purchase of a product for sale to the user is enabled. The product for sale is relevant to the one or more clusters and the at least one short-form video. The ecommerce purchase is accomplished within a short-form video window.

  • Publication number: 20240119486
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for dynamic population of contextually relevant videos in an ecommerce environment. A library of short-form videos is accessed from a server, and one or more short-form videos within the library is associated with a product for sale. In cases where a user searches for a product for sale on a website, a short-form video request is received. One or more short-form videos are selected from the library based on the product associations. In some instances, the video selection is optimized based on metadata, a bid from an advertiser, or machine learning. A container unit is inserted into the website and is dynamically populated with the short-form videos. A microsite is generated, enabling an ecommerce purchase. The microsite can use a product card or display a virtual purchase cart while the video plays.

  • Patent number: 11944970
    Abstract: A microfluidic detection unit comprises at least one fluid injection section, a fluid storage section and a detection section. Each fluid injection section defines a fluid outlet; the fluid storage section is in gas communication with the atmosphere and defines a fluid inlet; the detection section defines a first end in communication with the fluid outlet and a second end in communication with the fluid inlet. A height difference is defined between the fluid outlet and the fluid inlet along the direction of gravity. When a first fluid is injected from the at least one fluid injection section, the first fluid is driven by gravity to pass through the detection section and accumulate to form a droplet at the fluid inlet, such that a state of fluid pressure equilibrium of the first fluid is established.

  • Publication number: 20240073674
    Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for establishing data communication at a network device. The method includes identifying a cellular network by the network device. After that, the network device sends a request to an MSA for an embedded subscriber identification module (eSIM) profile of the cellular network. The MSA may or may not have an eSIM profile of the cellular network available. When an eSIM profile of the cellular network is available, the network device receives the eSIM profile information from the MSA. The network device then sends a request for data communication access to the cellular network using the eSIM profile information to obtain data communication access through the cellular network. The network device may comprise at least one universal integrated circuit card (UICC) and/or embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC).

  • Publication number: 20240048818
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for automated video processing. Short-form videos are analyzed and video segments are created from the short-form videos. A related short-form video can be used to create a new video segment, promoting a short-form video. The new video segment is populated on the website by a floating video player or banner ad providing a link to the related short-form video. Video segments can promote and/or demonstrate a product and/or service. The video segments show and describe various aspects of a product. The video segments are disseminated to one or more websites. The video segments can be shown as video thumbnails, banner advertisements, or rich media advertisements. The video segments can be disseminated based on context, and different segments can be provided to different websites. The different video segments can be disseminated based on demographic information, geographic region, and/or other criteria.

  • Patent number: 11880423
    Abstract: Techniques for video manipulation based on machine learned video curating are disclosed. Web page content is loaded, where the content includes a frame for short-form videos. The content of the web page is analyzed for textual information. A short-form video server is accessed. Short-form videos are selected from the short-form video server, where the selecting includes automatically curating the short-form videos. Adaptive learning is used for the selecting, based on a user's web page behavior. The adaptive learning includes collecting the user's web page behavior before the selecting. Automatic curating includes selecting, by a neural network, a subset of short-form videos appropriate for the web page. The web page frame is populated with the short-form videos obtained from the video server. Representations of the short-form videos are displayed within the frame on the web page. The short-form videos are auto played within the frame.

  • Patent number: 11659219
    Abstract: Disclosed techniques include video performance rendering modification based on device rotation metric. A media stream is received from a server. The media stream is targeted for display on a handheld media stream playback device. An orientation of the handheld device is determined during playback of the media stream on the handheld device. A change in the orientation of the handheld device is detected. The change occurs during playback of the media stream. Based on the detecting the change of orientation, a rotation angle of the handheld device is calculated. Based on the rotation angle, the playback speed of the media stream on the handheld device is changed. The changing the playback speed changes direction of playback rendering based on the rotation angle of the handheld device. The changing direction provides forward playback by rotating the handheld device in a clockwise direction from an initial orientation.
