20120061918 | PATTERN BUILDING GAME ASSEMBLY WITH LAUNCHING APPARATUS AND METHODS - A game apparatus and a method using trays as the game board with vertical support columns, two sets of playing pieces and two launching devices. The one or more vertical support columns attach to the one or more trays to support the trays horizontally above a support surface. On the surface of each of the trays is a matrix and each element of the matrix has a recessed compartment orthogonal to the surface of the tray. Each recessed compartment is sized to hold a multiplicity of both types of playing pieces in a stacked manner. The launching devices are used to launch the playing pieces from the launching devices into the recessed compartments on the trays. Games are played with two or more players and the object of the game is for one player to be the first to build a predetermined pattern with the playing pieces in the recessed compartments by launching the playing pieces into the recessed compartments. The recessed compartments may also be created so that the order and the number of the playing pieces in each recessed compartment are observable for additional variety in game play. | 03-15-2012 |

20110096076 | APPLICATION PROGRAM INTERFACE FOR ANIMATION - Many computer applications incorporate and support animation. Application performance may be enhanced by delegating animation management to an application program interface (animation API) for animation. Accordingly, an animation API for managing animation is disclosed herein. The animation API may be configured to sequentially interpolate values of animation variables defining animation movement of animation objects. The animation API may interpolate the values of the animation variables using animation transitions within animation storyboards. The animation API may be configured to determine durations of animation transitions based upon animation characteristics parameters (e.g., starting position, desiring ending position, starting velocity of an animation variable). Durations and start times of animation transitions may be determined based upon key frames. The animation API may be configured to resolve scheduling conflicts among one or more animation transitions. Also, the animation API may be configured to facilitate smooth animation while switching between animation transitions for an animation variable. | 04-28-2011 |
20110099537 | EVENT HANDLING FOR UNMANAGED CODE - Many computer applications involve event driven programming. Unfortunately, it may be burdensome on application developers to develop event handlers in unmanaged code for all relevant events within their computer application. For example, when using COM objects in connection with event handling, the burden of lifetime management may be placed on the application developer. Accordingly, one or more systems and/or techniques for event handling in unmanaged code are disclosed herein. A delegate comprising a first interface and a second interface is provided. The delegate may receive event data from a software platform connected to the first interface and may notify a function of a process connected to the second interface. The delegate self destructs when both the computing platform and the process have released their connections to the respective interfaces, thus mitigating manual coding of lifetime management functionality within the process. | 04-28-2011 |
