Abstract:

Techniques are described herein for providing a real-world reward based on performance of action(s) indicated by virtual card(s) in an online card game. For instance, online offer(s) may be provided to player(s) of the online card game. Each online offer offers a real-world reward to designated player(s) in return for the designated player(s) providing a set of virtual cards that is specified by the offer. Once a designated player performs action(s) that are associated with a virtual card, the virtual card is provided to the designated player. When the designated player obtains all of the virtual cards in the set that is specified by the offer, the designated player may provide the set of virtual cards in acceptance of the online offer. Upon receipt of the set of virtual cards from the designated player, the real-world reward is provided to the designated player.

Abstract:

Map interactivity for a visually-impaired user is provided. A map is displayed on a display module of a device and a grid is overlaid onto the displayed map using a rendering module. Each cell of the grill corresponds to a location on the map. Further, a user selection is received using the input module concerning a cell of the grid from the displayed map. Information associated with a selected cell is retrieved using the location module within the device and a speech segment relating to the information is output using an output module.

Abstract:

Systems and methods for providing user control of alternate routes are provided. In example embodiments, a networked system identifies a current location of a vehicle of a driver and a destination of the driver. The networked system accesses driving preferences of the driver, whereby the driving preferences including preferences derived from past selection of routes by the driver. The networked system then determines, a plurality of routes from the current location of the vehicle to the destination based on the driving preferences. The plurality of routes is then displayed on a user interface of a device of the driver.

International Classification:

G01C 21/34

Abstract:

Systems and methods for providing user control of alternate routes are provided. In example embodiments, a networked system receives a ride request from a user that indicates a drop-off location. The networked system identifies a current location of a user (e.g., a rider) and determines a plurality of routes from the current location of the user to a drop-off location. The plurality of routes is displayed on a user interface of a device of the user. In response, a selection of a route from the plurality of routes is received by the networked system. The networked system then causes presentation of a driving route corresponding to the selected route on a device of a driver and the device of the user.

G06Q 50/30

Abstract:

A transportation management system matches drivers with riders. After a rider has been picked up by a driver, a navigation route from the rider's pickup location to the driver's next stop is displayed to the driver on a mobile computing device. Prior to picking up the rider, only an initial portion of the navigation route is displayed to the driver. The amount of the initial portion displayed to the driver is dynamically determined according to its navigational complexity.

Abstract:

Techniques for enabling members that have interacted physically to interact thereafter via an online social networking service are described. According to various embodiments, it is determined that a first member and a second member of an online social networking service physically interacted at an interaction location at an interaction time, and a specific time interval commencing at the interaction time is calculated. Thereafter, an ephemeral prompt is displayed to the first member, during the specific time interval, indicating that the first member physically interacted with the second member, and inviting the first member to message the second member via the online social networking service. The ephemeral prompt is prevented from being displayed subsequent to expiration of the specific time interval.

Abstract:

A system may include a processor and a network interface. The processor may be configured to set a meeting room status of a meeting room over a selected time period to unavailable based on a meeting organizer specifying the time period and an attendee of a meeting, obtain a location status of the attendee during the selected time period, and change the meeting room status to reserved but not occupied based on the location status of the attendee being not in proximity of the meeting room. The network interface may be configured to transmit the meeting room status to a user device.
