Gopher
Protocol’s (OTCQB: $GOPH) PUZPIX Social Media Game Converting YouTube Video's
into Puzzles
San
Diego, California, October 20, 2016 (Investorideas.com Newswire) – Gopher
Protocol Inc. (OTCQB:GOPH) (“Gopher” and the
"Company”), a development-stage Company which specializes in the
development of real-time, heuristic-based mobile technologies, and its
partners, Guardian Patch LLC (“Guardian”) and Alpha EDA, LLC (“Alpha” and
together with Guardian, the "Partners"), which previously announced the launch of their PUZPIX website, http://www.puzpix.com/, today announced the updated
release of PUZPIX Version 2.7, which support GPS and video puzzles and now also
allows users to post links to YouTube videos which are then automatically
converted by PUZPIX into puzzles. Upon
assembling a YouTube video puzzle, the user can then watch the YouTube video in
its entirety. PUZPIX can be downloaded
on both the Apple store and on Google Play under the name "PUZPIX".
PUZPIX
is a social media game based on GOPHERINSIGHT™ technology licensed by the
Company. The game uses a computerized framework to create a puzzle from images
that users upload onto the system’s server. The user creates an account and has
the option to store images in the designated "Friends" area and/or in
the designated "All" (public) area.
Only approved friends will be granted access to the images in the
"Friends" area and all players have access to
the "All" area. Upon a user’s
request, the system turns an image into a puzzle of at least nine pieces,
though more challenging puzzles can be made once the user achieves a higher
level of skill. Upon the Company and its Partners launching their GopherInsight™
integrated circuit technology, of which there is no guarantee, the Company also
hopes to develop a version III of PUZPIX to include domestic / international exchanges
of puzzle pieces that could be shared worldwide.
In addition to allowing
its users to upload short videos to share with their PUZPIX
"Friends", which appear as thumbprint puzzles of the videos, the new
and advanced Version 2.7 also allows its users to post links to YouTube videos,
which also appear as thumbprint puzzles of the videos. Once a personal video puzzle or a YouTube
video puzzle has been assembled, the user can then watch the video in its
entirety, immediately after which the video automatically disappears and cannot
be saved. The feature which allows users
to upload videos from their libraries can only be utilized between PUZPIX
"Friends", while posting links to YouTube videos can be shared
between "All" users. The
Company and its Partners are examining the possibility of launching a
crowdfunding campaign for the PUZPIX app.
“This newest add-on
version of PUZPIX
which allows users to post YouTube Videos makes the game's video sharing
function easier to use by providing its users with the ability to simply post
links to videos as opposed to requiring users to upload videos. We are not aware of another gaming platform
which offers videos as puzzles that automatically vanish after assembled.”, said Dr. Rittman, the
Company's CTO. “Being a social media
game, but still a derivative of the Company's GOPHERINSIGHT™ database technology,
PUZPIX represents for us a lab prototype examining system
that will manage databases of all types including media, textual, graphical and
secured communication information. This
new app also offers additional features such as users' ability to send private
images / video, friend and un-friend other users and post "online"
status. It is our hope that the game's
algorithm will continue to evolve to offer new methods of entertainment and
communication and we believe that the software demonstrates the potential a of
our GopherInsight microchip technology should we continue to develop it
further. ”, Continued DR. Rittman.
The
Company has filed pending patent application for PUZPIX in connection with the
Company's development of a system, method and software application for mobile database management and sharing over a private,
secured network. The pending patent application contemplates that a system will
manage databases of all types including media, textual, graphical and secured
communication information. The system will work with a proprietary integrated
circuit (IC) within mobile devices. Working together with the IC and the mobile
software application, it is the intent that the system will share all mobile
database types with all other, same mobile ICs that are installed on other
mobile devices, worldwide, via its own private, secured, encrypted protocol.
