Encouraging communication among live video viewers through combos
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11882338B2) outlines a system involving computer processors that distribute live video to multiple viewers, allowing viewers to input items during the video stream. The system then determines if these inputs meet specific combo conditions, generating combos and chaining them together within a set period. The distributor receives benefits based on the number of chained combos, with increasing benefits as the chain grows. Additional conditions include relationships between inputted items, limits on repeated inputs, and enhanced benefits based on viewer status.
Furthermore, the system offers a second benefit to the distributor during distribution, with the option to enter a predetermined mode when a threshold number of first benefits is reached. This mode allows for enhanced benefits based on specific criteria, including enabling viewers to input dedicated items. The system also clears existing combos after the chainable period expires. The patent also covers a method executed by computers and a computer-readable medium program that follows similar steps, emphasizing the generation of combos, chaining them, and providing benefits to the distributor based on the number of chained combos.
