Course Development Program (US8738556B2)
The present invention is directed to a method of operating a knowledge capture program. The knowledge capture program has the steps of starting the knowledge capture program wherein a user can access content that is either existing content or creating new content. Once the content has been selected then a source subject matter can be selected and displayed, and then captured and incorporated into the content. The source subject matter can be edited and saved into the content. The content can then be retrieved and played in a desired mode of learning.
Systems and methods for calculating vision obstruction for a virtual reality system, augmented reality system or mixed reality system - became Ocular3D Systems LLC (US11373362B2)
Methods and systems and for calculating light projection obstruction in human vision analyses are described. The methods and systems include an integration of formulas, algorithms, databases, and interactive interfaces that capture, document, and deliver the results of human vision studies. The methods and systems calculate the amount of vision obstruction for a particular device by producing a rendered image having pixels and designating the pixels in the rendered image to have various colors. Certain types of colors are designated for representing objects in the rendered image to be visible to the user, and other types of colors are designated to represent objects that are obstructed in the rendered image. The methods and systems may also be integrated into, and displayed within, conventional virtual reality, augmented reality, and/or mixed reality equipment and/or systems.
Calculating light projection obstruction in human vision analysis - became Ocular3D Systems LLC (US10130247B2)
The present invention is the integration of formulas, algorithms, databases, and interactive interfaces. The technology results in a user friendly software application that captures, documents, and delivers the results of human vision studies via a secure web server. The present invention is a method for incorporating commercially available software having an Application Program Interface (API) for calculating the amount of vision obstruction for a particular device by producing a rendered image having pixels and designating the pixels in the rendered image to have various colors. Certain types of colors are designated for representing objects in the rendered image to be visible to the user, and other types of colors are designated to represent objects which are obstructed in the rendered image.
Image compression system (WO2006081314A2)
Video/image analysis and compression systems are described, that can be used in conjunction with image, video, and/or sound files. A master image can be created from a series of images. The difference between the next image and the master image is compared (320 of Figure 4) and is placed in a key frame located within a video file. Areas of the next image that differ from the master image are cropped (324 of Figure 4) and the XY anchor positions of the cropped area in relation to the master image are recorded. These areas are then placed in the next sequential key frame. The master image would underlie the sequential cropped areas. Optionally, transparent alpha channels can be applied to the areas that are different from the master image within the cropped areas. The new image is then stored. This procedure would be repeated until no further images from the image series are present.
Social media campaign system (US20120066082A1)
A social media campaign system is described that can quickly and efficiently develop, manage and/or coordinate several different marketing and/or sales campaigns on numerous social media outlets. The system enables the user to upload (especially on a “bulk” basis), schedule and release “tweets” or other content in a highly quick and efficient manner. The user can create, upload, schedule and broadcast a large number of individual marketing and/or sales campaigns on a large number of different social media outlets or networks that has heretofore been too difficult, laborious and time consuming to accomplish with conventional means.
Interactive training, certification and development system (US20050053905A1)
Training, certification, courseware development systems are described that allow an individual (e.g., a student, trainee or the like) to learn and/or become certified on a topic (e.g., a software application) by using simulation of the actual software application. The systems provide the student or trainee with an interactive experience that enhances the educational experience through a combination of various multimedia technologies.
