    Abstract: A multi-instance, multi-user animation platform includes a plurality of modeled parallel dimensions in a computer memory. Each of the parallel dimensions may be an independent model of a physical, three-dimensional space having corresponding features such that the parallel dimensions are recognizable as counterparts to each other. Avatars are located within corresponding ones of the parallel dimensions so as to prevent over-population of any one of the parallel dimensions by avatars. Avatars are animated within different ones of the parallel dimensions using input from respective users to provide virtual-reality data. A common space is modeled in the computer memory configured in relation to the plurality of parallel instances so that an object located inside the common space is visible from viewpoints located inside each of the plurality of parallel instances. Remote clients may output an animated display of a corresponding one of the parallel dimensions and avatars therein.

    Abstract translation: 多实例多用户动画平台在计算机存储器中包括多个建模的并行维度。 每个平行尺寸可以是具有对应特征的物理三维空间的独立模型,使得平行尺寸可被认为彼此对应。 化身位于相应的平行尺寸中,以防止化身中任何一个平行尺寸的过度聚集。 使用来自相应用户的输入来提供虚拟现实数据,化身在不同平行维度的动画中。 在相对于多个并行实例配置的计算机存储器中建模公共空间,使得位于公共空间内的对象可以从位于多个并行实例中的每个中的视点看见。 远程客户端可以输出其中的对应的一个平行尺寸和化身的动画显示。

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for incentivizing users of one application to try or use another application by, for example, enabling users to transfer virtual objects between applications. These applications may be unrelated. However, the systems disclosed herein are capable of converting the virtual objects that are configured to function with one application so that the virtual objects can be utilized by another application. In some cases, the conversion of the virtual object may be dependent on the market rate for a virtual object and/or the number of users who decide to convert instances of the virtual object. Further, the systems disclosed herein enable users to unlock features of applications based on accomplishments in other applications.

    Abstract translation: 本公开提供了用于激励一个应用的用户通过例如使得用户在应用之间传送虚拟对象来尝试或使用另一应用的系统和方法。 这些应用可能是无关的。 然而,本文公开的系统能够转换配置为与一个应用功能的虚拟对象,使得虚拟对象可以被另一个应用程序利用。 在某些情况下,虚拟对象的转换可能取决于虚拟对象的市场利率和/或决定转换虚拟对象实例的用户数量。 此外,本文公开的系统使得用户能够基于其他应用中的成就来解锁应用的特征。

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing audio advertisements in a computer network enables Web sites to deliver audio advertisements that cannot be bypassed by a visitor. More particularly, an advertising or sponsoring Web site receives a request from at least one user for delivery of a user-selected Web page associated with the Web site. The Web site selects at least one audio advertisement from a plurality of audio advertisements for delivery to the user in conjunction with the user-selected Web page. The Web site then delivers the audio advertisement to the user via the network in a format that precludes the user from controlling the manner of playback of the audio advertisement.

    Abstract: A gaming method operates to provide expert card-counting information to some or all participants, in exchange for a premium. The premium may be a cash payment, a reduction in the prize amount or betting odds, some combinations of the foregoing, or any other useful remuneration. The house retains its edge via the premium. The method may be implemented for play at a physical or virtual card table.

    Abstract: A multi-user animation process receives input from multiple remote clients to manipulate avatars through a modeled 3-D environment. Each user is represented by an avatar. The 3-D environment and avatar position/location data is provided to client workstations, which display a simulated environment visible to all participants. A text or speech-based bulletin board application is coupled to the animation process. The bulletin board application receives text or speech input from the multiple remote users and publishes the input in a public forum. The bulletin board application maintains multiple forums organized by topic. Access or participation to particular forums is coordinated with the animation process, such that each user may be permitted access to a forum only when the user's avatar is located within a designated room or region of the modeled 3-D environment.

    Abstract translation: 多用户动画过程接收来自多个远程客户端的输入,以通过建模的3-D环境操纵化身。 每个用户都用头像表示。 3-D环境和头像位置/位置数据提供给客户端工作站,显示所有参与者可见的模拟环境。 基于文本或基于语音的布告栏应用程序与动画过程相结合。 公告板应用程序从多个远程用户接收文本或语音输入,并在公共论坛中发布输入。 公告板应用程序维护由主题组织的多个论坛。 特定论坛的访问或参与与动画过程相协调,使得每个用户只有当用户的头像位于建模的3D环境的指定房间或区域内时,才允许访问论坛。
