Systems and methods for representing and diagnosing interaction sequences in accordance embodiments of the invention are disclosed. In one embodiment of the invention, a group interaction diagnosis and recommendation server system includes a processor and a memory configured to store a set of reference interaction data, where the reference interaction data includes a set of reference interaction sequences, wherein a group interaction diagnosis application configures the processor to obtain a set of group interaction data, generate an interaction model based on the group interaction data and an interaction dynamics language, determine at least one interaction sequence within the set of group interaction data based on the generated interaction model, identify at least one matching interaction sequence within the determined at least one interaction sequence, and recommend at least one improved interaction sequence based on the identified at least one matching interaction sequence and the set of reference interaction data.

Television systems are disclosed that incorporate separate A/V processing systems and television displays. The television displays can receive video driving signals wirelessly from the A/V processing system that can be used to directly drive the display driver of the television display. By separating the electronics used to receive various input sources of audio and video (A/V) content from the television display, the television display can be designed to consume less power, can be manufactured to be significantly lighter and can be installed with fewer cables. Indeed, cables can be eliminated entirely, where the A/V processing system communicates wirelessly with the television display and the television display obtains power wirelessly from a wireless power supply.

For a number of users is a system provided to create, edit, replay and view documents of free hand drawn sketches. The system captures the creation process together with verbal and/or visual information provided by each user and automatically correlates them for a later synchronized replay. The system provides a number of tools and features, mainly to: combine the sketching activity with existing images, to selectively retrieve media information correlated to individual sketch entities and to quasi simultaneously collaborate at a common document. The system architecture can by adjusted to various parameters in the communication infrastructure. The system may be implemented in any software program, a web based service, a web browser, an operating system for computers and/or communication devices.

System and method for indexing, accessing and retrieving audio/video with concurrent sketch activity

Language oriented information is communicated to and from a user by the use of a computer with a dynamic graphics display, having a pointing device for visually indicating a position through a cursor on the display. Various embodiments of the method include calling an icon to attention when the cursor is positioned on the icon, auto projecting an icon when it is activated, changing the icon image to denote its terminal node status, varying the play back speed of the audio/visual aspect of an icon, moving among different layers of a hierarchical database, and text searching and matching with icons.

Method of communication using sized icons, text, and audio

The design process recorder of the invention includes a data collector for inputting a query; a data storage and management unit for storing a design record including a plurality of nodes and a plurality of arcs, one of the plurality of nodes corresponding to design information; and a story teller for tracing back and forth the nodes and the arcs from a node indicated by the query, and for presenting design information related to a traced node as a story-board.
