| 20090152341 | TRADE CARD SERVICES - The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates servicing a portion of a trade card via a web service. A web service can provide a portion of data to enhance a trade card, wherein the portion of data is at least one of a portion of trade card document-specific data, an intelligent gadget, or a feed driven component. A build component can leverage the web service to utilize the portion of data with the trade card. | 06-18-2009 |
| 20090159656 | USER-CREATED TRADE CARDS - The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates identifying relationships between two or more trade cards. A schema component can implement a portion of user-assisted schema to create a trade card that represents a distillation of a document with document-specific data. A relationship component can identify at least one of a hard link or a soft link associated with the trade card in connection with at least one of a network or one or more trade cards, wherein the hard link is a source that derived the trade card and the soft link is directed toward a disparate trade card with a portion of substantially similar document-specific data. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20090172570 | MULTISCALED TRADE CARDS - The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates interacting with a trade card that includes pyramidal volumes of data. A trade card with data can represent a computer displayable multiscale image with at least two substantially parallel planes of view in which a first plane and a second plane are alternatively displayable based upon a level of zoom and which are related by a pyramidal volume, wherein the image includes a pixel at a vertex of the pyramidal volume. An environment can host the trade card to enable access to a portion of the displayable multiscale image. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20090254820 | CLIENT-SIDE COMPOSING/WEIGHTING OF ADS - The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates displaying relevant advertisements to a user. A display engine can browse a portion of image data during a browsing session. An evaluator can identify a context related to two or more concurrent and on-going browsing sessions. An ad selector can locate an ad from a data store based on the identified context and seamlessly incorporate and display the ad into at least one of the browsing sessions. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090274391 | INTERMEDIATE POINT BETWEEN IMAGES TO INSERT/OVERLAY ADS - The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates simulating a portion 2-dimensional (2D) data for implementation within a 3-dimensional (3D) virtual environment. A 3D virtual environment can enable a 3D exploration of a 3D image constructed from a collection of two or more 2D images, the 3D image is constructed by combining the two or more 2D images based upon a respective image perspective. An analyzer can evaluate the collection of two or more 2D images to identify a portion of the 3D image that is unrepresented by the combined two or more 2D images. A synthetic view generator can create a simulated synthetic view for the portion of 3D image that is unrepresented, the simulated synthetic view replicates a 2D image with a respective image perspective for the unrepresented portion of 3D image. | 11-05-2009 |
| 20090279784 | PROCEDURAL AUTHORING - The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates generating a model from a 3-dimensional (3D) object assembled from 2-dimensional (2D) content. A content aggregator can construct a 3D object from a collection of two or more 2D images each depicting a real entity in a physical real world, wherein the 3D object is constructed by combining the two or more 2D images based upon a respective image perspective. A 3D virtual environment can allow exploration of the 3D object. A model component can extrapolate a true 3D geometric model from the 3D object, wherein the true 3D geometric model is generated to include scaling in proportion to a size within the physical real world. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20090289937 | MULTI-SCALE NAVIGATIONAL VISUALTIZATION - The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates providing navigational assistance. An immersive view can include image data that can represent a computer displayable multi-scale image with at least two substantially parallel planes of view in which a first plane and a second plane are alternatively displayable based upon a level of zoom and which are related by a pyramidal volume, wherein the multi-scale image includes a pixel at a vertex of the pyramidal volume. A navigation component can provide navigational assistance via the immersive view based upon navigational input. A display engine can display the immersive view. | 11-26-2009 |
| 20090295791 | THREE-DIMENSIONAL ENVIRONMENT CREATED FROM VIDEO - The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates constructing a three-dimensional (3D) virtual environment from two-dimensional (2D) content. A 3D virtual environment can enable a 3D exploration of a 3D image constructed from a collection of two or more 2D images, the 3D image is constructed by combining the two or more 2D images based upon a respective image perspective. The two or more 2D images can be provided by a video portion. An aggregator can reduce the number of frames in the video portion, construct a 3D image based upon key point features in the reduced number of frames and align the key point features geometrically in three dimensions. | 12-03-2009 |
| 20100042428 | PROCESSING GASOLINE PRICE DATA IN A NETWORKED ENVIRONMENT - Processing gasoline price data in a networked environment. A data source component obtains gasoline purchase transaction data, which includes data indicative of consumer credit purchases of gasoline made by a plurality of consumers. Each of the consumer credit purchases is from an identifiable location. In response to receiving an indication that a gasoline level of a gasoline tank has reached a minimum, a user interface component generates a user request for gasoline price data for a selected geographic region. A processing component processes the gasoline purchase transaction data as a function of the selected geographic region and generates a display including the processed gasoline purchase transaction data for the selected region. The generated display is transmitted to a user computing device. | 02-18-2010 |
