GN Store Nord has 1 granted patent in 1 category: Platforms (1). The patent covers technology for capturing gameplay moments through a rolling buffer system that continuously stores recent gameplay footage in temporary fast storage.
When a predefined action occurs, the buffered window transfers to permanent storage, preserving noteworthy moments without requiring continuous recording of entire gaming sessions. This Platforms technology enables selective capture of gameplay highlights based on triggered events.
The Platforms patent addresses the challenge of capturing meaningful gameplay moments without the overhead of recording entire sessions. A rolling buffer continuously holds recent gameplay in fast storage, essentially maintaining a sliding window of the most recent activity. When a specific action is detected, such as an achievement or significant in-game event, that buffered window transfers to permanent storage. This two-tier approach preserves the seconds or minutes leading up to important moments, something players cannot manually capture in real time, while avoiding the storage burden of always-on recording.
