The Patent and Trademark Office issued a patent for Video Call Center, a live talk TV start-up venture by former cable analyst Tom Wolzien. The technology allows a TV host “to take the reins of a show without the normal control room,” Wolzien said Tuesday in a news release (http://bit.ly/1olyx7I). It handles multiple video callers at the same time, “with many screened and simultaneously ready for the TV host to select to air,” it said.
