Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for selecting supplemental content for a viewer based on bid responses received from supplemental-content sources for a supplemental-content bid request provided in parallel. A supplemental-content request is received from a content receiver for a viewer. The supplemental-content request is modified based on viewer-specific data that is obtained for the viewer. A supplemental-content bid request is generated based on the modified supplemental-content request and provided to a plurality of supplemental-content sources. Bid responses are received from one or more of the plurality of supplemental-content sources. One or more bids from the bid responses for the supplemental-content request are selected based on obtained supplemental-content statistics. Supplemental content associated with the one or more selected bids is provide to the content receiver to fulfill the supplemental-content request.

Abstract: The disclosed system receives a first request from a first user device to record, using a first camera, a first image of an object in a surrounding environment. The first request includes an indication to zoom the first camera, wherein zooming the camera enlarges an appearance of the object in the image. The system sends a second request to a second user device to record a second image of the object. The second user device is closer to the object than the first user device. A first orientation of the first user device and a second orientation of the second user device satisfies a first criterion. The system causes the second user device to record the second image of the object using the second camera, receives the second image from the second user device, and provides the second image to a display of the first user device.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for intelligent ad-based routing. In example aspects, a destination input, desired time for arrival, and user profile data is received in a ride-sharing application. The input data is classified by applying one or more machine-learning models to the data. Based on the classified data results, candidate physical advertisement locations may be selected along a certain route. Different types of routes may be selected that range from the shortest possible route (i.e., a direct route) to a major detour (i.e., the most cost-effective route). A major detour takes the user on a route that exposes the user to as many advertisements as possible while still arriving at the final destination before the desired time of arrival. In exchange for a longer route and more exposure to physical advertisements, the cost of the ride may be offset. While the user is in proximity to the physical advertisement along the route, businesses associated with the physical advertisement locations may transmit real-time advertisements/messages to the user to be displayed on a user device, a vehicular device, and/or a combination of the two. During the ride, the real-time business information may be received that may alter the route to maximize the effectiveness of real-time advertisement delivery.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media for containerizing and adapting content items for delivery in a packet stream from a content provider system via one or more networks to an endpoint media device are disclosed. A content composite may be created for delivery in a packet stream from a content provider system to an endpoint media device. A containerization object may be configured with a container flag that indicates a content item and containerization specifications to facilitate performance of operations by the endpoint media device with respect to the content item. The content composite may be transmitted in accordance with composite transmission specifications. The endpoint media device may perform the operations facilitated by the containerization object of the content composite.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for detecting and remediating roadway hazards. In example aspects, a machine learning model is trained on a dataset related to roadway items. Input data may then be collected by a data collection engine and provided to a pattern recognizer. The pattern recognizer may extract roadway features (physical and non-physical) and recognized patterns from the input data and provide the extracted features to a trained machine learning model. The trained machine learning model may compare the extracted features to the model, and a risk value may be generated. The risk value may be compared to a risk value threshold. If the risk value is equal to or exceeds the risk threshold, then the input data may be classified as a roadway hazard. Remedial action may subsequently be triggered, e.g., notifying other vehicles on the roadway, notifying other devices of drivers on the roadway, and/or notifying interested third parties (e.g., government agencies and/or private entities responsible for maintaining a roadway), to decrease the frequency of vehicles colliding with roadway hazards and to increase the efficiency of remediating the identified roadway hazards.

Abstract: Various arrangements of location-based in-vehicle restaurant menu systems are presented. In some embodiments, a location sensor that determines a global location of a vehicle is present. An in-vehicle display incorporated as part of the vehicle may be present. A location of the vehicle may be determined to correspond to a location-specific menu based on data received from the location sensor. A location-specific menu may be retrieved for the available restaurant location in response to determining the location of the vehicle. The location-specific menu may be output for presentation to the in-vehicle display, allowing a user to decide on his order before approaching an intercom system.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to methods and systems for remote access hardware testing. A user can remotely control probes connected to an oscilloscope to collect signal measurements of test points on a circuit board. The user can control the probe point position on the circuit board using an application on a device to enter the test point locations. In some implementations, a user controls the probe machine using remote controls and a camera video feed to identify the test points on the circuit board and capture measurements. The hardware testing system can automate the measurement process with a script or by using machine learning to identify test points via a camera, controlling the probe machine, and capturing measurements of the test point.

Abstract: A system includes an integrator node (IN), external to a building. A gateway, within the building, is coupled to the integrator node by a first link. A gateway outdoor unit access point (GOUAP) is coupled to the IN by a second link. The GOUAP is coupled to a user device by a third link. The gateway is coupled to a Cloud. The GOUAP provides access to the Cloud, by the user device, when the user device is outside the building. The first link and/or the second link utilizes MOCA. The third link utilizes Wi-Fi. An Internal Network Extender (INE) is coupled to the gateway by a fifth link and located within the building. While the user device is external to the building, the user device utilizes the third link, the second link, and the first link to communicatively couple with the gateway.

Abstract: Various arrangements for facilitating smart television content receivers in a local network are provided. In an example, a secondary television receiver creates voice data based on a spoken voice command by a user and transmits the voice data to a primary television receiver. In response, the primary television receiver transmits data based on the voice data to a voice processing server via the Internet and receives a command from the voice processing server generated based on the voice data.

Abstract: According to principles of the disclosure, audio/video programs are dynamically and concurrently displayed to a user in a first window and a second window (“picture-in-picture display”) based on the user's identified demographic characteristics. At least one of the audio/video programs is previously transmitted and saved to a memory of a set-top box and is loaded for display on demand. By storing a plurality of content with relevance to the user locally, the system may rapidly respond to breaks in an audio/video program the user is watching by initiating picture-in-picture display. The audio/video programs displayed in the first window and second window may be advertisements or any other audio/video program suitable for display.
