Abstract:

Techniques are described for providing and managing interactive communication sessions between client computing devices, such as via Web browser software executing on the client computing devices to interact with server computer devices providing a shared visual interaction environment for the devices, and with the shared visual interaction environment being dynamically customizable to add and/or remove selected types of functionality that have corresponding visual representations in the shared visual interaction environment. In some situations, the described techniques include providing multiple predefined types of functionality and/or enabling users to add new types of user-defined functionality, using visible layers that each present one or more types of visual information or other visual effects corresponding to at least one of the functionality types. In some situations, the techniques support an augmented reality and/or virtual reality system, and enable control over a variety of types of communication-enabled physical objects (e.g., the Internet of Things).

Abstract:

An integrated parking information system is disclosed. The system includes a collection system and a means for collection of parking data, and an information provision system and a method for the provision of parking information, for instance, enabling a driver to know exactly which city parking rules and fines apply for any given street parking space, as well as other associated information. The system can notify members about available parking spots through a GPS application that is integrated with phones & in dash Navigation Systems. The system can provide alerts to protect members against parking violations.
