Abstract

A device, system, and method generates a post benchmark. The method performed at a comparison server includes receiving data of a past post, the past post having been used for a media content, the past post having known results of reaching an audience. The method includes determining at least one first characteristic of the past post based on at least one entity involved in the past post and the media content. The method includes determining a first similarity index of the at least one first characteristic to at least one second characteristic of a post benchmark, the post benchmark having aggregated results associated therewith. The method includes when the similarity index is above a first threshold, incorporating the past post with the post benchmark, the known results being aggregated with the aggregated results.

Abstract

Described herein are apparatuses, systems and methods for generating an interactive three-dimensional ("3D") environment using virtual depth. A method comprises receiving a pre- rendered media file comprising a plurality of frames, receiving depth data related to the media file, wherein the depth data corresponds to each of the plurality of frames, creating an invisible three-dimensional ("3D") framework of a first frame of the media file based on the corresponding depth data, and rendering a new first frame in real time to include the pre- rendered first frame, one or more virtual visible 3D objects and the invisible 3D framework.

Abstract

A system for generating an interactive 3D environment comprises a processing apparatus receiving a plurality of first frames. The processing apparatus is configured to create, based on depth data related to the first frames, an invisible three-dimensional ("3D") framework for each of the first frames based on the corresponding depth data. The processing apparatus is also configured to generate a plurality of second frames by inserting a virtual 3D object into the invisible 3D framework so that the virtual visible 3D object interacts with invisible objects defined by the invisible 3D framework. Each of the second frames includes a corresponding one of the first frames and the virtual visible 3D object interacts with the invisible objects defined by the invisible 3D framework. A display displays the second frames.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Described herein are systems and methods for inserting breakpoints and reference links into a multimedia file. A method may comprise receiving breakpoint information from a content provider, wherein the breakpoint information is specific to a first digital media file of a plurality of digital media files, inserting a plurality of breakpoints into the first digital media file based on the breakpoint information, wherein the plurality of breakpoints designate at least one clip within the first digital media file, receiving a user share request from a user device to share the at least one clip within the first digital media file, and providing the user device with a sharable reference link to the at least one clip.
