| 20110190035 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ENHANCING USER INTERFACE INTERACTIONS ON A MOBILE DEVICE - The technology provides methods and devices for enhancing user interface interactions on mobile devices. The technology includes accessing a plurality of data sets, each data set of the plurality of data sets having corresponding data items and selecting at least one data item characteristic for the corresponding data items. Metric information is calculated from the selected data item characteristics, the calculated metric information is aggregated for the corresponding data items and a value is assigned to each corresponding data item based on the aggregated metric information. A feature of at least one corresponding data item is modified based on the assigned value and a combined visualization of the modified data items accessed from the plurality of data sets is generated to display the modified data items. The combined visualization includes a data cloud of the data items accessed from the plurality of data sets. Font size and font colors are assigned to the data items based on a value assigned to the data items. | 08-04-2011 |
| 20110264783 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RECEIVING DATA FROM A PLURALITY OF FEED SOURCES - The present specification relates generally to computing devices and more particular relates to a method and apparatus for receiving data from a plurality of feed sources at a plurality of servers via a mobile device comprising a processor interconnected with a display. In one aspect, the mobile device is configured to start a feed service; register feed adapters with the feed service; receive content data via the feed adapters; and generate a list view of the content data on a display of the mobile device. | 10-27-2011 |

| 20100045869 | Entertainment Device, System, and Method - An entertainment device for combining virtual images with real images captured by a video camera so as to generate augmented reality images. The device comprises receiving means operable to receive a sequence of video images from the video camera via a communications link. The device further comprises detecting means operable to detect an augmented reality marker within the received video images, and processing means operable to generate a virtual image plane in dependence upon the detection of the augmented reality marker by the detecting means. The virtual image plane is arranged to be substantially coplanar with a real surface upon which the augmented reality marker is placed so that virtual images may be generated with respect to the real surface. The processing means is operable to generate the virtual image plane within the captured video images such that the virtual image plane is defined with respect to the detected augmented reality marker, and the virtual image plane has an area which is greater than an area which corresponds to the augmented reality marker. | 02-25-2010 |
| 20100048290 | IMAGE COMBINING METHOD, SYSTEM AND APPARATUS - A method of rewarding an end-user of a product. The method comprises supplying, in association with the product, an augmented reality marker for use with an augmented reality application. The augmented reality marker is provided as a free promotional supplement to the product. | 02-25-2010 |
| 20110237331 | ENTERTAINMENT DEVICE AND METHOD OF INTERACTION - A method of interaction for an augmented reality environment comprises the steps of capturing an image of a drawn picture comprising one or more drawn shapes, identifying the or each respective drawn shape as corresponding to a component of an archetypal model and generating a three dimensional virtual model representing the archetypal model using generation rules associated with the archetypal model, wherein components of the three dimensional virtual model generated from components of the archetypal model corresponding to the or each respective drawn shape have the appearance of the or each respective drawn shape. | 09-29-2011 |
