Abstract
A computer system for allowing user to communicate with text enhanced with emotional preset having attributes and kinetics including computer readable instructions that, when executed by a processor, perform the steps of: receiving a set of text characters, receiving an emotional preset selection information, creating a unlined animated text message or unlined social message, transmitting the unlined messages to a recipient using CMC or social media to receive the message to convey to the recipient the emotional communications selected by the sender.
Claims20
A computerized system for emotionally augmented computer-mediated communication comprising:
- a communication device having a display, a computer readable medium an and an input assembly;
- a first text area displayed on the display;
- a second text area displayed on the display;
- a set of emotional presets stored in the computer readable medium wherein each emotional preset includes a set of attributes configured to display an emotion corresponding to the preset, wherein the set of attributes include sub-attributes selected from the group consisting of linear scale, vertical scale, horizontal scale, skew, line spacing, character spacing, position, blur, stroke, path shape and any combination thereof;
- a set of messaging computer readable instructions including in the computer readable medium, when executed by a processor, include instructions for receiving an emotional preset selection through the input assembly representing a sender's emotional selection, intercepting a set of message text characters in a lined format representing an outgoing message from a sender's computer device, determining an initial state for the set of message text characters, determining an end state for the set of message text characters according to the emotional selection preset, determining an animation path having a plurality of incremental states between the initial state and the end state, converting the set of message text characters to an unlined animated text message according to the initial state, emotional preset selection, animation path, and end state, displaying the unlined animated text message on the display in the second text area, and transmitting the unlined animated text message to a receiver's computer-mediated communication system;
- and,
- a set of canvas computer readable instructions including in the computer readable medium, when executed by the processor, includes instruction for receiving a set of social text characters in a lined format representing a social media message, determining an initial state for the set of social text characters, determining an end state for the set of social text characters according to the emotional preset selection, determining an animation path having a plurality of incremental states between the initial state and the end state, converting the set of social text characters to an unlined animated social text message according to the initial state, the emotional preset selection, animation path, and end state, displaying the unlined animated social text message on the display, and transmitting the unlined animated social text message to a social media site.
A computerized system for emotionally augmented computer-mediated communication comprising:
- a mobile communications device having a display, computer readable medium, processor, input assembly, transceiver and a sender's computer-mediated communication system;
- a first text area displayed on the display;
- a second text area displayed on the display;
- a set of emotional presets stored in the computer readable medium wherein each emotional preset includes a set of attributes configured to display an emotion corresponding to the preset, wherein the set of attributes include sub-attributes selected from the group consisting of linear scale, vertical scale, horizontal scale, skew, line spacing, character spacing, position, blur, stroke, path shape and any combination thereof;
- a set of messaging computer readable instructions including in the computer readable medium, when executed by the processor, include instructions for receiving an emotional preset selection through the input assembly representing a sender's emotional selection, intercepting a set of message text characters in a lined format representing an outgoing message from the sender's computer-mediated communication system, determining an initial state for the set of message text characters, determining an end state for the set of message text characters according to the emotional selection preset, determining an animation path having a plurality of incremental states between the initial state and the end state, converting the set of message text characters to an unlined animated text message according to the initial state, emotional preset selection, animation path, and end state, displaying the unlined animated text message on the display in the second text area, and transmitting the unlined animated text message to a receiver's computer-mediated communication system.
A computerized system for emotionally augmented computer-mediated communication comprising:
- a mobile communications device having a display, computer readable medium, processor, input assembly, transceiver and a sender's computer-mediated communication system;
- a first text area displayed on the display;
- a second text area displayed on the display;
- a set of emotional presets stored in the computer readable medium wherein each emotional preset includes a set of attributes configured to display an emotion corresponding to the preset, wherein the set of attributes include sub-attributes selected from the group consisting of linear scale, vertical scale, horizontal scale, skew, line spacing, character spacing, position, blur, stroke, path shape and any combination thereof;
- and,
- a set of canvas computer readable instructions including in the computer readable medium, when executed by the processor, includes instruction for receiving a set of social text characters in a lined format representing a social media message, determining an initial state for the set of social text characters, determining an end state for the set of social text characters according to an emotional preset selection, determining an animation path having a plurality of incremental states between the initial state and the end state, converting the set of social text characters to an unlined animated social text message according to the initial state, the emotional preset selection, animation path, and end state, displaying the unlined animated social text message on the display, and transmitting the unlined animated social text message to a social media site.
