Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is a cloud-based image processing web service. This invention discloses techniques for interactively viewing and manipulating elements of a web page or application layout uploaded from a client to a server. The layout's elements, such as graphics and image properties, are extracted, encoded, and used to generate a JSON file that describes the layout along with a sprite sheet of all images. Both the JSON file and the sprite sheet are stored as a rendition of the layout within a cloud environment. A web-based application can retrieve these files, which may be used to create a preview environment. Additional data in the JSON can generate an information panel in the web browser, representing relationships between layers, styles, and other properties of the layout.

Another significant patent involves systems and methods for developing objects and actions in media content. This invention provides an intuitive interactive media content development environment that simplifies the creation of actions. Users can easily specify that a shape will move when the media is run or that a web page will open when a button is clicked within the media. The assignment of an action may involve displayed objects, including trigger objects associated with events that trigger the action and target objects that perform the specified actions. This invention features a visual and intuitive interface that minimizes the experience required of a user, providing a primarily mouse-click driven development environment.
