20150379879 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ASSESSING READER ACTIVITY - A system and method are provided for assessing user engagement with content viewed on a display of a computing device. The system analyzes user interactions with content, where the user can annotate the content with predetermined sentiments associated with the content being viewed. The annotations are responses, each of which may be associated with a particular type of predefined metadata. The system may then aggregate the annotations for each selection of content and render those annotations on the display within the content. Any user viewing the content can then view the annotations in order to stimulate further interaction with the system, e.g., via additional responses to the annotations. | 12-31-2015 |

20120030713 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY AUTHORING INTERACTIVE TELEVISION CONTENT - A system and method is provided to automatically generate content for ITV products and services by processing primary media sources. In one embodiment of the invention, keywords are automatically extracted from the primary media sources using one or more of a variety of techniques directed to video, audio and/or textual content of the multimodal source. In some embodiments, keywords are then processed according to one or more disclosed algorithms to narrow the quantity of downstream processing that is necessary to associate secondary sources (reference items) with the primary video source. Embodiments of the invention also provide automatic searching methods for the identification of reference items based on the processed keywords in order to maximize the value added by the association of reference items to the video source. | 02-02-2012 |

20100308593 | Method for Generating Rotation using Water Power - A method for generating rotation from the interaction of water with curved surfaces utilises a rotating assembly with a configuration of objects with curved surfaces suspended from radial arms which are connected to a swing bearing. A continuous water supply fed to the curved surfaces of the suspended objects cause a horizontal force to be generated and this force causes the rotating assembly to rotate in a sustainable manner. This method can be used to construct low head hydro electricity generation systems or on a smaller scale water features, with rotational elements, for decorative purposes. | 12-09-2010 |

20130086175 | INLINE MESSAGE COMPOSING WITH VISIBLE LIST VIEW - A compose form for drafting a message is presented inline within a window along with a message list. For example, instead of overlaying the message application's user interface (UI) with a new window for composing a message, the compose form is displayed within a portion of the window reserved for viewing content of messages. While composing the message using the compose form, the rest of the message application's UI remains visible and accessible to the user. For example, the user may navigate to another folder and/or move to another message/conversation by interacting with the tree view/message list view. A draft of the message being composed may be automatically saved when the user navigates away from the compose form (e.g. by selecting another conversation in the list view). | 04-04-2013 |
