| 20100218099 | Systems and Methods for Audience-Enabled Access to Presentation Content - A system and method for accessing content provided by a presenter during a presentation is described. The system and method includes a presentation module used by a presenter to display presentation materials to audience members during a presentation. Also included is a selection module that allows a display of a representation of the presentation materials that have been displayed. When activated, the selection module enables an audience member to select for redisplay by the presentation module a particular one of the presentation materials. | 08-26-2010 |
| 20110154174 | EMBEDDED MEDIA MARKERS AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING AND USING THEM - Embedded Media Markers (EMM) are optical-filter-like overlaid marks that can be printed on a part of a paper document that signify the existence of media associated with that part of the document. Users take a picture of an EMM-signified document patch using a cell phone camera, and the media associated with the EMM-signified document location is retrieved and displayed on the phone. Unlike bar codes, EMMs are nearly transparent and thus do not interfere with the document contents. Retrieval of media associated with an EMM is based on image local features of the captured EMM-signified document patch. A semi-automatically technique places an EMM at a location in a document, in such a way that the EMM encompasses sufficient identification features with minimal disturbance to the original document. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110173260 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING A PRESENCE STATE OF A PERSON - A system and method for determining a presence state of a person. A plurality of data feeds is received. A subset of the plurality of data feeds that includes data regarding presence states of a first person is identified. The subset of the plurality of data feeds are analyzed to determine a plurality of presence states of the first person, wherein a respective presence state of the first person is determined from a respective data feed in the subset of the plurality of data feeds. One or more presence states of the plurality of presence states are reported to subscribers via the network. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20120037695 | EMBEDDED MEDIA BARCODE LINKS AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING AND USING THEM - Embedded Media Barcode Links (EMBL), are optimally blended iconic barcode marks printed on paper documents that signify the existence of media associated with that part of the document. EMBLs are used for media retrieval with a camera phone. Users take a picture of an EMBL-signified document patch using a cell phone, and the media associated with the EMBL-signified document location is displayed on the phone. Unlike traditional bar code which requires an exclusive space, EMBLs are optimally blended with contents and thus have less interference with the original document layout and can be moved closer to a media associated location. Unlike Embedded Media Makers (EMM) which requires underlying document features for the marker identification, EMBL has no requirement to underlying features. Moreover, EMBL can take the advantage of users' knowledge to traditional barcode. Retrieval of media associated with an EMBL is based on the barcode identification of the captured EMBL. | 02-16-2012 |

| 20080263592 | SYSTEM FOR VIDEO CONTROL BY DIRECT MANIPULATION OF OBJECT TRAILS - One embodiment is a method for an interaction technique allowing users to control nonlinear video playback by directly manipulating objects seen in the video playback, comprising the steps of: tracking a moving object on a camera; recording a video; creating an object trail for the moving object which corresponds to the recorded video; allowing the user to select a point in the object trail; and displaying a frame in the recorded video that corresponds with the selected point in the object trail. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20110307800 | Methodology for Creating an Easy-To-Use Conference Room System Controller - In embodiments, a user interface provides for manipulating one or more physical devices for use in a conference room setting. The user interface includes a touch screen for presenting a variety of options to a user. The touch screen includes controllers, such as buttons, to enable the user to select any one of the options. Each of the controllers has goals-oriented information, enabling the user to select a goal, while insulating the user from the underlying complex processes required to carry out the goal through the selection of one of the controllers. | 12-15-2011 |

| 20100090572 | Product delivery bin for a vending machine - A system and method for providing an improved product delivery bin for a vending machine is disclosed. A vending machine cabinet is provided with a door assembly that is capable of being placed in a closed position with respect to the vending machine cabinet. The product delivery bin of the vending machine comprises a door panel of the door assembly and a cabinet bin panel of the vending machine cabinet. The product delivery bin is formed when the door assembly is in a closed position with respect to the vending machine cabinet. The product delivery bin is accessible through a bin access door in the door assembly. | 04-15-2010 |

| 20120106976 | NETWORK INTERFACE DEVICE SYNCHRONIZATION - Techniques are disclosed that relate to synchronizing a clock on a network interface device with a clock on an optical line terminal (OLT). In one example, the technique to synchronizing the clocks may include monitoring one or more instances when the network interface device transmits information to the OLT and determining when a frame should be received by the network interface device based on the monitored one or more instances when the network interface device transmits information the OLT. | 05-03-2012 |

| 20100141565 | CONTROL HEAD WITH ELECTROLUMINESCENT PANEL IN LAND MOBILE RADIO - An exemplary land mobile radio control head and method are provided. In one embodiment, the control head has the capability to utilize halo light of the control head to implement a multi-function indicator that communicates a state of the land mobile radio. In another embodiment, the control head has the capability to provide buffer images constructed from data received from the land mobile radio into a video stream for rendering on an electroluminescent display. In another embodiment, the control head provides the capability for a user to modify a configuration stored on the land mobile radio that defines one of several display modes to be utilized in generating data for use in forming images to be rendered on an electroluminescent display. | 06-10-2010 |
