VIDEO SHARING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240251136 titled 'VIDEO SHARING SYSTEM

The patent application describes systems and methods for presenting videos in a playback sequence, where a first client device receives a message containing the identifier of a video from a second client device, allowing the first client device to select and play back the video.

  • The systems and methods enable sharing videos between client devices through a video playback graphical user interface.
  • The first client device can select a video from the message received from the second client device and play it back before continuing with the sequence of videos.
  • This innovation allows for a seamless sharing and playback experience for users interacting with a sequence of videos.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology can be applied to video streaming platforms to enhance the user experience by enabling easy sharing of videos between devices.
  • It can also be used in video conferencing applications to facilitate the sharing of video content during meetings or presentations.

Problems Solved:

  • Simplifies the process of sharing and playing back videos between different client devices.
  • Enhances the user experience by allowing for seamless integration of shared videos into a playback sequence.

Benefits:

  • Improved user engagement and interaction with video content.
  • Streamlined sharing of videos between devices.
  • Enhanced collaboration and communication in video-based applications.

Commercial Applications:

  • "Seamless Video Sharing and Playback Technology for Enhanced User Experience in Video Streaming Platforms"

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this technology improve the user experience in video playback sequences? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology for video streaming platforms?


Original Abstract Submitted

systems and methods are provided for presenting videos in a playback sequence. the systems and methods receive, by a first client device, a message comprising an identifier of a first video from a second client device. the message is generated by the second client device responsive to a request to share the first video from a video playback graphical user interface (gui) that automatically plays back a first plurality of videos in sequence. the systems and methods receive input by the first client device that selects the identifier of the first video. the systems and methods, in response to receiving the input, launch, by the first client device, the video playback gui that automatically plays back a second plurality of videos in sequence and present, by the first client device, the first video corresponding to the identifier before presenting the second plurality of videos in the sequence.
