Appl. No.:

16/206040
Inventors:

John Douglas Steinberg - Millbrae CA, US
Arthur H. Muir - San Mateo CA, US
International Classification:

H04N 21/2668
H04N 21/84
H04N 21/2387
H04N 21/258

H04N 21/81
H04N 21/8352
Abstract:

Systems and methods for representing video and audio media files as workflows are disclosed. In some cases, the systems and methods combine segments of the media files into larger compilations in the workflows, and using the workflows to individually optimize both the viewing experience for and the advertising presented to viewers based upon the circumstances of each viewer and parameters described with the workflow.

Filed:

Dec 6, 2013
Appl. No.:

14/649743
Inventors:

Roger N. HITCHCOCK - San Leadro CA, US
Arthur Hughes MUIR - San Mateo CA, US
Eric A. NIETERS - Mountain View CA, US
Alireza ZARRABI - Sunnyvale CA, US
- Leverkusen, DE
International Classification:

H04R 1/00
H04R 17/00
H04R 31/00
H04R 7/02
Abstract:

An apparatus () is disclosed. The apparatus includes a rigid frame (), an electroactive polymer film () defining an aperture () where the electroactive polymer film has a first and second side. A first electrode is located on the first side of the electroactive polymer film and a second electrode is located on the second side of the electroactive polymer film. The aperture is configured to deform upon the application of an electric voltage potential to the first and second electrodes. A method of making an electroactive device is also disclosed. The method includes positioning an electroactive polymer film within a rigid frame and forming an aperture within the electroactive polymer film.
