A technique for real-time trailer utilization measurement includes a three-dimensional depth monitor operable to monitor loading of a trailer and a processor operable to determine trailer utilization in real-time during loading of the trailer using image information from the monitor. A graphical user interface can receive utilization information from the processor and display a visual representation of real-time loading of the trailer. Utilization is a ratio of cumulative package volume to currently loaded volume of the trailer, wherein the cumulative package volume is determined from dimensional scans of packages to be loaded in the trailer and the currently loaded volume is determined by the monitor.

A method and apparatus for creating video clips is provided herein. A method includes displaying, by a client device, one or more video streams, displaying, by the client device, a plurality of soft buttons, each of the plurality of soft buttons associated with a different length of time, receiving, by the client device, a selection of a soft button from the plurality of soft buttons, and displaying, by the client device, a presentation area including one or more segments of the one or more video streams, the one or more segments of the length of time associated with the selected soft button and captured from the one or more video streams, wherein the presentation area has an x-axis representing time. The method further includes receiving, by the client device, selection information indicating for each of the one or more segments a starting point and an ending point selected by a user from the presentation area, and displaying, by the client device, an indication of the creation of a video clip from the one or more segments based on the selection information.

Method and apparatus for creating short video clips of important events

A method and apparatus for creating video clips is provided herein. During operation, a processing device will receive multiple video feeds from multiple video sources. In order to reduce the difficulty in producing multiple clips from the multiple video sources, thumbnails of the captured content is displayed and one-click selection of start and stop points of each clip is allowed. An operator can then pick an annotation (metadata) from events in the game or enter a new one and apply it to any or all of the video clips. Suggested content is then displayed based on the metadata of this annotation and can be bundled with the video clips by choosing from the list of related content. All of this content is then bundled together in the database.

A method and apparatus for intention based communications in a mobile communication device is disclosed. The method may include receiving an input from a user of the mobile communication device, converting speech portions in the user's input into linguistic representations, generating a phoneme lattice based on the linguistic representations, scoring stored intention n-grams against the generated phoneme lattice, scoring intentions from the intention n grams, determining the highest scoring intention, determining whether the highest scoring intention is above a predetermined threshold, wherein if the highest scoring intention is above the predetermined threshold, executing the determined intention.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for selecting interaction policies. Values may be provided for a group of parameters for user models. Interaction policies within a specific tolerance of an optimal interaction policy for the user models may be learned. Up to a predetermined number of the learned interaction policies, within a specific tolerance of an optimal policy for the user models, may be selected for a wireless communication device. The wireless communication device, including the selected interaction policies, may determine whether any of a group of parameters, representing a user preference or contextual information with respect to use of the wireless communication device, is updated. When any of the group of parameters has been updated, the wireless communication device may select one of the selected interaction policies, such that the selected one of the selected interaction policies may determine a better interaction behavior for the wireless communication device.
