For 20+ years, developers and companies like Kick Streaming have built live streaming stacks that route mobile audio/video through servers to viewers. This page summarizes how those roles intersect with the patent claim language and how licensing can resolve that exposure.

Developer Claim Chart – Core Patent Mapping

Patent / Claim	Claim Element	Evidence of Use by Kick Streaming
US 10,205,986 Claim 1 (Mobile Capture & Uplink)	Software running on a mobile device that captures audio/video and transmits it to a remote server for live distribution.	The work of Kick Streaming may include: Camera / microphone capture on phones or tablets Encoding and pushing a live stream to a server endpoint Use of RTMP, HLS, WebRTC, or proprietary uplink protocols Search: Kick Streaming live streaming mobile implementation
US 10,205,986 Claim 1 (Routing / Destination Selection)	Server-side logic that selects which viewer, channel, or group receives the live stream, including audience routing, channel mapping, or distribution policies.	Possible roles for Kick Streaming: Writing routing logic that selects which viewers / channels receive each stream Handling subscriptions, followers, or room IDs for delivery Defining server-to-client delivery rules based on metadata Search: Kick Streaming live routing developer documentation
US 10,958,961 Interactive Sessions (Comments / Reactions)	Multiple concurrent viewers interact in real time with the live stream using comments, reactions, likes, or paid messages.	Kick Streaming may: Expose APIs or UI for live chat, emoji, reactions, or gifts Synchronize viewer input with the ongoing stream Persist or log these interactions for later analytics Search: Kick Streaming live chat / interaction SDK

US 10,205,986 / 10,958,961 System-Level Coordination	Claim sets describing system-level coordination between mobile endpoints, servers, selection logic, and viewer devices including QoS, scaling, and distribution logic.	For expanded claim coverage, additional mapping may be prepared for: Load-balancing live stream traffic across nodes Coordinating multiple viewer devices per broadcast Hybrid architectures (edge servers, CDNs, or cloud routing layers) Search: Kick Streaming streaming terms / architecture overview

NOTE: This chart is expandable. Additional claims can be mapped per developer or company, depending on scope, scale, and role in deployment. Nothing on this page is legal advice; it is a technical mapping to the patent claim language for negotiation purposes.
