The modern world is developing rapidly, and many unusual inventions appear every day. Let's talk about three interesting patents from Snap, Uber, and Boeing, which have not yet been implemented, but have great potential.
Personalized videos
Snap, the owner of Snapchat, wants to create videos featuring avatars of the user and their friends. In its patent, the company notes that such content could be released weekly, monthly, or daily.
As shown in the image on the left, users are presented with a TV program. They can choose something from it to watch or to add their avatar.
Why is this necessary? First, the feature will help attract more users. The ability to create personalized content sounds incredibly tempting. Imagine a video in which one of your friends falls hopelessly in love with your girlfriend - this will definitely be discussed for a long time in your company.
Secondly, it opens up opportunities for collaborations with egypt number data brands. For example, with the support of Marvel, episodes with alternative Avengers played by users and their friends could appear.
Snap has great potential in this area: the company understands the interests of users well. And they, in turn, are already forming their digital versions with Bitmoji (an application in which you can create an avatar and use it on various social networks). With the new feature, Snap may even bypass Instagram.
Transportation services on request
Uber builds its own fleets of taxis, electric scooters, ferries, helicopters, and other vehicles. According to this patent, the company plans to combine these options to create customized options that will help a user get to their destination.
Let’s say a person is taking a train and the station they arrive at is 30 minutes away from their home. In this case, Uber will offer several options depending on the user’s preferences (cost, speed, mode of transport). For example, getting to a common place on an electric scooter where they can transfer to a carpool. And for those who don’t have much time, it may be better to just order an Uber taxi to their destination.
Thanks to artificial intelligence and the ability to receive real-time feedback, Uber's transportation infrastructure will likely be able to compete even with state-owned ones.
