This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18464013 titled 'GALLERY OF MESSAGES FROM INDIVIDUALS WITH A SHARED INTEREST

Simplified Explanation

Abstract: A machine with a processor and memory is described. The memory stores instructions for the processor to receive a message and a message parameter that indicates a characteristic of the message, which can be a photograph or a video. The machine determines if the message parameter corresponds to a selected gallery, which is a sequence of photographs or videos. If it does, the message is posted to the selected gallery in response to this determination. The selected gallery is provided upon request.

Explanation:

  • A machine is described with a processor and memory.
  • The memory stores instructions for the processor to perform certain tasks.
  • The machine can receive a message and a message parameter.
  • The message parameter indicates a characteristic of the message, which can be a photograph or a video.
  • The machine determines if the message parameter corresponds to a selected gallery.
  • The selected gallery is a sequence of photographs or videos.
  • If the message parameter matches the selected gallery, the message is posted to that gallery.
  • The selected gallery is provided when requested.

Potential Applications:

  • Social media platforms could use this technology to automatically categorize and post user-submitted photographs or videos to relevant galleries.
  • Online photo or video sharing platforms could benefit from automatically organizing and posting content to specific galleries based on user preferences or characteristics.
  • E-commerce websites could use this technology to categorize and display product images or videos in specific galleries based on customer preferences or product characteristics.

Problems Solved:

  • Manual categorization and posting of photographs or videos to specific galleries can be time-consuming and prone to errors.
  • Users often struggle to find relevant content in large collections of photographs or videos.
  • Organizing and managing large amounts of user-generated content can be challenging for online platforms.

Benefits:

  • Automation of categorization and posting saves time and reduces the risk of human error.
  • Users can easily find and access relevant content in specific galleries.
  • Online platforms can efficiently manage and organize large amounts of user-generated content.
