11210856 · 2021-12-28 · ·

A system and method for facilitating tracking of interactions with a plurality of content types within a digital reality. One or more users enter a public digital zone where content from one or more holographic applications is available for interaction through digital reality devices. Interactions include seeing, looking at, clicking on, engaging with, and immersing into the digital content from the one or more holographic applications. Potential outputs of these interactions include transactions, switching to other holographic applications, or completely exiting the holographic application. Each of these interactions is continuously tracked by a telemetry and tracking cloud server communicatively connected to a cloud server and holographic application. Cloud servers of each public digital zone connect to cloud servers of other public digital zones, enabling users to seamlessly access holographic applications located in other public digital zones.

The user wearable devices are configured to allow attendees of events to exchange their information upon a simultaneous input into their respective device. The simultaneous inputs initiate a verification that the two users are registered for and present at the same event before initiating a pairing through single direction short range antennas. The simultaneous inputs can also verify whether the two users are facing one another and an appropriate distance apart to coordinate the simultaneous input.

Systems and methods for automated mass media commerce
11210698 · 2021-12-28 · ·

Systems and methods for implementing point of advertising purchasing include using mass media publications configured for or containing service, product or vendor transmittable signals, such as from radio frequency identification tags. In a preferred arrangement, a consumer perceiving an advertisement of the mass media publication may activate a reader in a portable communications device, such as a smart mobile or cellular phone, to receive information from the radio frequency signal associated with the advertisement to identify a vendor, product or service associated with the radio frequency identification. The smart mobile phone or communications device of the consumer may communicate with a system of a vendor or vendors by way of a commerce data organization system across a network to order a product or product information from a system of the vendor over the network by using the information from the radio frequency identification.

The response includes one or more function calls with parameters including cost information for targeting users having predicted life time values greater than a threshold life time value (LTV) for a type of ad campaign.

Cloud system for controlling outdoor grill with mobile application
11206307 · 2021-12-21 · ·

Embodiments are directed to communicating with and controlling operation of electronically-controlled appliances. In one scenario, a computer system receives a first input from a computing system indicating that an electronically-controlled appliance is permitted to communicate with a cloud computing platform. The computer system generates a notification that is to be sent to a software application, where the software application is configured to control functions of the electronically-controlled appliance. The computer system transmits the generated notification to the software application, where the generated notification indicates that the cloud computing platform is communicably connected to the electronically-controlled appliance. The computer system then receives a second input from the software application indicating that specified functions are to be performed on the electronically-controlled appliance, and transmits instructions to the electronically-controlled appliance to perform the specified functions. These functions are then interpreted and carried out by a hardware controller on the electronically-controlled appliance.
