US Classification:

463 42, 463 40, 463 41

Abstract:

The present invention is direct to a Live Network Explorer (LNE) which allows users to graphically navigate through a web of interconnected friends on a gaming console. The LNE provides a real-time graphical representation of friend-of-friend relationships, with the currently-viewed user as a visual node in the screen center. The center node is surrounded by nodes representing that user's friends. Real-time animation is used to represent transitions as the user navigates from person to person. The LNE also represents groups as a visual node in this graphically interconnected web so that the user can travel to a group that a person belongs to, and can see all the people inside the group by connections. The user can navigate to any of these people in the group. The user can click on a person to bring up their digital identity details.

US Classification:

709229, 709223, 463 29

Abstract:

Techniques to enable parental control for a media console are described. One such technique involves enabling user-specific security (or rights) settings. This technique includes first receiving a user identifier from a user interface of a media console. The technique includes next determining a first security profile for the media console based on the user identifier. In this technique, the first security profile defines a supervised operating configuration for the media console that is specific to the user identifier, and which is controlled by an authorized party, such as a parent. Finally, the technique includes enabling use of the first media console subject to the first security profile. In this technique, the first security profile thereby defines parental control choices regarding use of the first media console by the first user, e. g. , a child.

US Classification:

709203

Abstract:

Members of a media community share content where each member of the community is associated with a profile and a portable media device. A portion of the profile is used to create a media card that includes on or more actionable elements that enable the member to interact with the media community. The media card may be embedded in a memory area of the portable media player and accessible by one or more other members of the media community. Utilizing the tag, a member may create and share playlists with other members of the community. Also, a member of the media community can create a friend list comprising of media cards of other members to interact with the other members associated with the media cards.

International Classification:

G16H 20/30

Abstract:

Athletic activity monitoring methods and systems are disclosed. In one embodiment, a sensor module is physically coupled to an object during an athletic activity conducted by a user. An athletic activity monitoring method for use with the sensor module includes detecting movement of the object; determining an initial spatial orientation of the object; and determining a change in the spatial orientation of the object. The method further includes wirelessly transmitting data relating to the change in spatial orientation to a computer, where the computer is remotely located from the user during the athletic activity; wirelessly receiving activity metric data from the remote computer, where the activity metric data is based on the transmitted data relating to the change in spatial orientation; and providing an output to the user that conveys an activity metric.
