US Classification:

715530

Abstract:

A system and method of creating interactive visual content in which base visual content, a selection of a trigger event associated with the base visual content, and intermediate visual content are received as an input. Viewing visual content derived from the base visual content is automatically generated. The viewing visual content can be displayed by a viewing application executing on a computer. A set of regions of the interactive visual content in which swap visual content is to be displayed by the viewing application when the trigger event occurs is automatically generated. For example, regions of the viewing visual content that are to be replace by the swap visual content when the trigger event occurs can be identified. Also, the swap visual content is automatically generated from the intermediate visual content. In addition, instructions operable to cause the computer executing the viewing application to display the swap visual content in the identified regions when the trigger event occurs is automatically generated.

International Classification:

A23P 30/20
A23L 7/143

Abstract:

An extruder has an auger unit having an extruder screw. The extruder also has a food product inlet passageway and a food product die outlet. The food product inlet passageway is configured to receive food product extruded via the extruder screw. The food product die outlet is configured to expel food product from the extruder as an extrudate. The extruder further has at least first and second food passageways that operatively and in parallel connect the inlet passageway to the die outlet. The first and second food product passageways are configured such that food product passing through the first food passageway will travel from the inlet passageway to the die outlet more quickly than food product passing through the second food passageway will travel from the inlet passageway to the die outlet as additional food product is forced into the inlet passageway by the extruder screw.
