Abstract: A media system employs techniques to create a framework for evaluating gameplay content in a vector-space. These techniques include monitoring frames for content streams that correspond to gameplay in a game environment, determining feature-values for features associated with the frames, mapping the content streams to position vectors in the vector-space based on the feature-values, and assigning a set of position vectors in the vector-space to an area in the game environment based on a relative proximity of the set of position vectors in the vector-space.

Abstract: A method for dynamically modifying audio playback of a video game is provided. The method includes ascertaining game music data associated with the video game. The game music data may include a plurality of game soundtracks classified according to predetermined criteria. The method may include collecting feedback while the user is playing the video game, the feedback including data associated with the user's performance; an express user action; an evaluation of game results; the user's emotional state; and a user input. The method may continue with determining one or more replacement soundtracks based on criteria associated with the one or more replacement soundtracks. The method may further include dynamically modifying the game music data while the user is playing the video game by replacing at least one of the plurality of game soundtracks with the one or more replacement soundtracks to obtain modified game music data.

Abstract: A hand-gesture tracking engine includes a first artificial intelligence (AI) model component configured and trained to automatically identify a hand-gesture made by a source player within a video game. A hand-gesture intent engine includes a second AI model component configured and trained to automatically determine a message for communication to a target player within the video game as conveyed by the hand-gesture identified by the hand-gesture tracking engine. A hand-gesture translation engine having a third AI model component configured and trained to automatically generate a communication to the target player that conveys the message as determined by the hand-gesture intent engine. The third AI model component is configured and trained to automatically control sending of the communication to the target player.

Abstract: A foot operated controller apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus includes a ball large enough for a human to manipulate with two feet, and a support apparatus configured to support the ball from below, restrict translation of the ball and permit rotation of the ball about its center with respect to at least two axes. One or more position encoders are disposed proximate a surface of the ball. The encoder(s) are configured to determine a rotational displacement of the ball with respect to two or more axes.

Abstract: A microphone can be provided on a charging case for wireless earbuds. This can be used for quality recording and microphone placement, as well as assisting in echo cancellation algorithms by measuring environmental noise. The microphone can be movably mounted to adjust for noise or echo cancelation on another device such as a cell phone.

Abstract: A charging case for wireless earbuds is connected to a computer and wirelessly sends audio from the computer to the earbuds, allowing computer audio to be heard without having to pair the earbuds to the computer through Bluetooth or disturbing preexisting Bluetooth connections. Further, computer audio may be merged with audio from a mobile device, the mix of which may be controlled by a control element on the charging case.
