20090222511 | DELIVERING COMPOSITE MEDIA TO A CLIENT APPLICATION - An approach is provided for generating composite media and delivering the composite media to a client application. Data is received from one or more external sources, and a portion of the data is selected to be used in the composite media according to the time period of delivery of the client application, user information, or the type of client application requesting the media, if a request has been made. The selected data is integrated into a pre-created template to generate the composite media, such as an advertisement, special offers, or weather and stock information. The composite media may be modified prior to being delivered to the client application. The selection of the pre-created template and the modification of the composite media are made according to requirements of the client application, user information, or the type of client application (e.g., gaming application) requesting the media. | 09-03-2009 |
20100274714 | SHARING OF PRESETS FOR VISUAL EFFECTS OR OTHER COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED EFFECTS - This application describes a system and associated methods for enabling users of video editing, compositing, motion graphics, and other applications to easily store and retrieve presets, have presets modified for compatibility with other applications, share presets with each other, and search for shared presets. The users may utilize different applications that store presets according to different application-specific schemas. The system can automatically translate or conform presets from one application-specific schema to a neutral schema and from the neutral schema to another application-specific schema. This allows a user of one application to share his or her presets with users of different applications. Among other things, this cross-application sharing of presets allows the system implementor to create one user community (e.g., of users of different applications), rather than several individual ones (e.g., an individual user community for each different application). Other features of the system and associated methods are also described. | 10-28-2010 |

20140237365 | NETWORK-BASED RENDERING AND STEERING OF VISUAL EFFECTS - Systems and methods for applying visual effects to video in a client/server or cloud-based system are described. Using a web browser, for example, users can apply and control both simple and sophisticated effects with dynamic real-time previews without downloading client-side software. Rendering and previewing of the effects is done on the server and rendered images can be sent in rapid succession to the client, allowing simple, real-time feedback and control. Other aspects of the technology are also described. | 08-21-2014 |

20100308215 | System and Method for Ion Implantation with Improved Productivity and Uniformity - A method comprising introducing an injected gas (e.g., Argon, Xenon) into a beam line region comprising a magnetic scanner is provided herein. The injected gas improves beam current by enhancing (e.g., increasing, decreasing) charge neutralization of the magnetic ion beam (e.g., the ion beam at regions where the scanning magnetic field is non-zero) thereby reducing the current loss due to the zero field effect (ZFE). By reducing the current loss in regions having a magnetic field, the magnetic beam current is increased (e.g., the beam current is increased in regions where the magnetic field is non-zero) raising the overall beam current in a uniform manner over an entire scan path and thereby reducing the effect of the ZFE. In other words, the ZFE is removed by effectively minimizing it through an increase in the magnetized beam current. | 12-09-2010 |
