International Classification:

H04N 5/445
H04N 7/18

Abstract:

One or more devices, systems, and/or methods for presenting real-time videos of views that are obstructed are provided. For example, a first video may be received from a first camera. The first video comprises a real-time representation of a view opposing a first side of an obstruction. The first video is processed using a set of video parameters to generate a second video. The second video is transmitted to a display device. The second video is displayed on a display area positioned on a second side of the obstruction. A third video, comprising a real-time representation of the display area, is received. The set of video parameters are modified to generate a modified set of video parameters, based upon a comparison of the third video with the first video. The first video is processed using the modified set of parameters to generate an updated instance of the second video.

International Classification:

G06F 3/0484
G06F 17/30
G06F 3/0482

Abstract:

One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for transmitting response content items to devices are presented. For example, a graphical user interface may be controlled to display an interface. The targeting interface may comprise a selectable input. The selectable input may correspond to a content item. A request for a targeted response to the content item may be received via the interface. The request may comprise a response content item and a selection of the selectable input. A plurality of assignments of the content item to a plurality of users may be determined. The response content item may be transmitted to a plurality of devices. Each device of the plurality of devices may be associated with a user of the plurality of users.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/02
B60Q 9/00
G06Q 40/08

Abstract:

One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for executing feedback actions based upon vehicle practices are provided. For example, sensor data is collected from sensors configured to collect sensor data associated with vehicles. The sensor data is synthesized to attribute sensor data to vehicle motion of the vehicle in relation to other objects. The vehicle motion is synthesized to determine driving actions of the vehicle, such as switching lanes, making a left hand turn, running a red light, etc. Vehicle practices of the vehicle are defined based upon the driving actions, such as a vehicle practice of a driver running red lights. A feedback action is executed to either reward the vehicle practices or incentivize a change in the vehicle practices.

International Classification:

H04L 29/08

Abstract:

One or more methods and/or techniques for media queuing are provided herein. A user, of a client device, may search for a media item (e.g., a movie, video, and/or TV show). The media item may be provided by one or more content providers (e.g., businesses that provide media items in one or more formats, such as for rental, purchase, download, pickup, etc.). Responsive to the media item being of interest to the user, one or more media queuing options may be presented to the user. The media queuing options may correspond to one or more formats and/or one or more content providers (e.g., rental from a first content provider; purchase from a second content provider; etc). Responsive to the user invoking a media queuing option, the media item may be queued for consumption by the user.
