  • Publication number: 20230283864
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes techniques for facilitating interaction with content using interactive effects. The techniques comprise receiving a video from a first computing device associated with a first user among a plurality of users. The video is generated using an interactive effect. The interactive effect comprises overlaying at least one component on at least one subset of frames of the video. The interactive effect enables the video to be interacted with other users among the plurality of users. The video is presented on a second computing device associated with a second user among the plurality of users. The video comprises information indicative of instructions on how to interact with the video. Display of an animation associated with the at least one component may be automatically caused on the second computing device in response to receiving an indication of interacting with the video by the second user.

  • Publication number: 20230144336
    Abstract: Examples of charging systems are described which may utilize a network of resonator circuits. Control methods are described which may locate a charging location at which an electronic device is placed proximate the charging system and identify a path of resonator circuits to activate to charge the electronic device. Individual resonator circuits in the path may be activated by selecting a resonant frequency of the resonator circuit such that power may be transferred by the resonator circuit at an operating frequency.

  • Patent number: 11451092
    Abstract: An assembly line includes a conveyor belt and an energy charging system. The energy charging system includes (i) a resonator having a TX resonator disposed along the conveyor belt and a RX resonator mounted on and transported by the conveyor belt, (ii) an impedance matching network in communication with the resonator, (iii) and an energy storage device in communication with at least one of the resonator and the impedance matching network. Vmin is a minimum voltage of the energy storage device, and Vcap is a voltage across the energy storage device measured in real time. Energy is transferred from the TX resonator to the RX resonator when the Vcap is less than Vmin of the energy storage device.
