Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining when to refresh data used to generate simulated sports events based on user behavior. When a viewer of a sports event is determined to have stopped viewing the sports event on a first device, the user may seek to watch a simulation of the sports event on a second device. The simulation of the sports event on the second device may be based on sports statistics and historical sports statistics. The simulation is updated based on user actions and characteristics of sports statistics updates.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining when to refresh data used to generate a simulated sports event based on the availability of real-time data. A user requests to generate a simulation of a first sports event that is currently in progress. The simulation is generated using current and historical sports statistics and may be updated according to characteristics of updates to sports statistics for the sports event.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for sharing cost of a video subscription of a primary subscriber with a secondary subscriber. These systems and methods provide the secondary subscriber with access to the primary subscriber's video subscription and track a variety of metrics pertaining to access of the video subscription by each subscriber. These systems and methods determine, based on the access metrics, the relative usage of the video subscription by each subscriber and split the total cost of the subscription among them accordingly. This cost sharing subscription model may overcome inefficiencies in cost allocation in current subscription cost models and enable video streaming providers to increase their subscriber satisfaction levels and new subscriber acquisition rates.

Abstract: Game images displayed in an electronic game are analyzed and graphically recognized, a determination is made as to whether graphics recognized by the graphic recognition means are appropriate or inappropriate by checking against an inappropriate expression database where inappropriate expressions are recorded, and access to the game images is controlled in accordance with the determination result.

Abstract: A harness type safety belt absorbs dropping shocks to a user who accidentally falls from an elevated position. If the user fails to apply a rope hook to a life line and falls from the elevated position, an air bag in a mounting body inflates to absorb the dropping shock to reduce the dropping impact applied to the user. If the user falls with the rope hook connected to the life line, the rope suspends the user. The body of the user is supported by a waist belt, shoulder belts and thigh belts. Therefore a tension applied by the rope to the body of the user is dispersed to each of the belts so the body of the user is stably supported.

Abstract: The present invention provides a harness type safety belt capable of absorbing a dropping shock to a user even if the user accidentally falls from an elevated position. According to the present invention, in such a case that a user A fails to apply a hook of a rope to a life line and the user A falls from an elevated position, an air bag 2 provided in a mounting body 1 is inflated. Therefore, the air bag 2 can absorb a dropping shock and the dropping impact applied to the user A can be reduced. In addition, in the case where the user A falls with the hook of the rope being connected to the life line, the user A is suspended by the rope. The body of the user A is supported by not only a waist part belt 1b but also shoulder part belts 1a and thigh part belts 1c. Therefore a tension applied from the rope to the body of the user can be dispersed to each of the belts 1a, 1b and 1c and the body of the user can be stably supported.

Abstract: The present invention provides a shock absorbing aid for a human body ensuring an effective alleviation of a shock to the human body. In the present invention, air bags are inflated upon a detection of separation of a wearer's body from an object of contact, such as when the wearer has fallen from an aerial place, thereby making it possible to absorb a shock to the human body with the aid of the air bags even when the wearer has directly dropped on the ground or the like.
