20150130799 | ANALYSIS AND MANIPULATION OF IMAGES AND VIDEO FOR GENERATION OF SURROUND VIEWS - Various embodiments of the present invention relate generally to systems and methods for analyzing and manipulating images and video. According to particular embodiments, the spatial relationship between multiple images and video is analyzed together with location information data, for purposes of creating a representation referred to herein as a surround view. In particular embodiments, the surround view reduces redundancy in the image and location data, and presents a user with an interactive and immersive viewing experience. | 05-14-2015 |
20150130800 | SEGMENTATION OF SURROUND VIEW DATA - Various examples of the present disclosure include techniques and mechanisms for generating a surround view. According to various examples, a surround view is constructed from multiple images that are captured from different locations. A computer processor is used to create a three dimensional model that includes the content and context of the surround view. In some examples, the content and context can be segmented such that separate three dimensional models can be provided for each of the content of the surround view and the context of the surround view. | 05-14-2015 |
20150130894 | ANALYSIS AND MANIPULATION OF PANORAMIC SURROUND VIEWS - Various embodiments of the present invention relate generally to systems and methods for analyzing and manipulating images and video. According to particular embodiments, the spatial relationship between multiple images and video is analyzed together with location information data, for purposes of creating a representation referred to herein as a surround view. In particular embodiments, a surround view can be generated by combining a panoramic view of an object with a panoramic view of a distant scene, such that the object panorama is placed in a foreground position relative to the distant scene panorama. Such combined panoramas can enhance the interactive and immersive viewing experience of the surround view. | 05-14-2015 |
20150134651 | MULTI-DIMENSIONAL SURROUND VIEW BASED SEARCH - According to various examples, a surround view can be used as a visual search query for an object to be searched and this surround view can be compared to a database of three dimensional models. A determination can then be made about whether any of the three dimensional models match the visual search query. Based on how closely the three dimensional models match the visual search query, matching objects can be provided in various formats such as ranked lists. | 05-14-2015 |
20150138190 | ANALYSIS AND MANIPULATION OF OBJECTS AND LAYERS IN SURROUND VIEWS - Various embodiments of the present invention relate generally to systems and methods for analyzing and manipulating images and video. According to particular embodiments, the spatial relationship between multiple images and video is analyzed together with location information data, for purposes of creating a representation referred to herein as a surround view for presentation on a device. An object included in the surround view may be manipulated along axes by manipulating the device along corresponding axes. In particular embodiments, a surround view can be separated into layers. Effects can be applied to one or more of these layers to enhance the interactive and immersive viewing experience of the surround view. | 05-21-2015 |

20150046333 | System and Method for Duplicate Detection - A duplicate detection system is provided for analyzing and processing documents received at one or more capture sites. A physical document may be electronically captured at a capture site and subsequently transmitted to a regional or central processing system. The regional or central processing system may receive capture documents from multiple capture sites. The processing system may analyze the captured documents to identify and flag false-positives prior to performing duplicate detection. Duplicate detection may be performed in accordance with predefined rules associated with false-positive flags. Once duplicate detection is complete, suspected duplicates may undergo manual review while non-duplicates are released for posting or dispatching. | 02-12-2015 |

20160057168 | SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR EFFICIENT NETWORK SECURITY ADJUSTMENT - Various of the disclosed embodiments contemplate systems and methods for implementing network security without extensive remodeling of the network infrastructure. Rather than redesign a network topology to accommodate a plurality of firewall devices at the network periphery, various embodiments introduce localized access proxy systems, e.g., into an existing legacy network. Rule sets operating at the local proxies may ensure compliance with various security standards (e.g., PCI-DSS) without requiring an extensive overhaul of the network's connections. | 02-25-2016 |

20130208182 | MEDIA BUILD FOR MULTI-CHANNEL DISTRIBUTION - According to one embodiment, methods and systems are disclosed for converting multi-media content to multiple deliverable formats using a conversion workflow. For example, a single source content file can be captured and a plurality of deliverable content files can be derived from the single source content file. Each of the plurality of deliverable content files can be in a format specific to a different distribution channel. That is, a single source media file can be used to automatically build one or more distribution files for a particular channel or channels. Furthermore, the distribution files can be built including logos, branding, open/close graphics, ratings, promo material, etc. The inclusion of these elements can be based on a common set of business rules defining, for example, what elements should be included in different types of distribution files. | 08-15-2013 |
