摘要： Methods, systems, and computer programs for delivering supplemental content within streamed media are provided. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a request at a client for a media segment, which includes a plurality of video frames. Further, a stream of the media segment to the client from a media server is obtained and supplemental content (SC) is accessed from storage in the client or from an SC server. The access of the SC from the SC server can be performed before receiving the request, or while obtaining the stream, or after the stream has been obtained. Further, the method includes combining the media segment with the SC at the client, which inserts the SC to add or augment video frames from the media segment. The combination is then displayed to the user.

摘要： A geocast alerting system employs wireless geocast transmissions to deliver customized alerting messages to particular geographic areas. Geocast alerting regions and sub-regions can be defined within the system. Upon notice of the occurrence of an emergent situation, one or more geographic areas that may potentially be affected by the emergent situation are determined. The potentially effected geographic regions are compared with geocast alerting regions and sub-regions corresponding to particular geographic areas. Target alerting regions that should receive alerting messages are identified based on the comparison. The content of alerting messages can be tailored for each target alerting region. The content of alerting messages can contain distinct portions of content, each portion tailored based upon one or more conditions related to communications devices within the target alerting region.

摘要： Real-time participation within a media presentation is disclosed. A participant overlay may be generated by preprocessing a media presentation to extract a time-variant metadata stream associated with one or more interactive regions depicted in the media presentation. The participant overlay includes simulated physics, which may include boundaries of the interactive regions defined in accordance with content in said media presentation. A participant's interaction with said media presentation through the interactive regions may be captured and combined with the media presentation for display on a display. The interaction may comprise a user action upon one or more elements in the media presentation, a user action expressed in the media presentation through an avatar, or a user action in said media presentation in connection with a game element.

摘要： An integrated digital play system made according to the present invention provides a multi media, digitally integrated play environment that incorporates mobile device content and web based content which interacts with physically installed tags. The system includes means for identifying a fixed physical structure within a first play system; means for detecting a physical movement of a user relative to the fixed physical structure; a first computer means for combining the physical structure identification data and the user physical movement data to generate one or more motion points; and a second computer means for providing a virtual embodiment of the one or more motion points within a second play system. Because the first and second play systems are different play systems, the second play system does not require certain corresponding user motions in the first play system in order to perform in or progress through the second play system.

摘要： Systems and methods for extracting an image of a physical object constructed of for example bricks are presented. The method and system may detect boundaries and edges of a background using an edge detection operator, perform a perspective transformation calculation to compute a corrected virtual grid that is substantially aligned with the physical object's image, locate a color calibration palette in the digital image and extract color value information for pixels of the color calibration palette, and discern bricks as part of the physical object's image, the discernment being based in part on a determination of the brick's color compared to the color palette and the background color, the discerned bricks forming the extracted image. A computer readable medium may include instructions causing a system to extract an image of a physical object constructed of bricks according to the method.

摘要： An image taken by a real camera is repeatedly obtained, and position and orientation information determined in accordance with a position and an orientation of a real camera in a real space is repeatedly calculated. A virtual object or a letter to be additionally displayed on the taken image is set as an additional display object, and based on a result of recognition of a sound inputted into a sound input device, at least one selected from the group consisting of a display position, an orientation, and a display form of the additional display object is set. A combined image repeatedly generated by superimposing on the taken image the set additional display object with reference to a position in the taken image in accordance with the position and orientation information is displayed on a display device.

摘要： Techniques described herein use signal analysis to detect and analyze repetitive user motion that is captured in a 3D image. The repetitive motion could be the user exercising. One embodiment includes analyzing image data that tracks a user performing a repetitive motion to determine data points for a parameter that is associated with the repetitive motion. The different data points are for different points in time. A parameter signal of the parameter versus time that tracks the repetitive motion is formed. The parameter signal is divided into brackets that delineate one repetition of the repetitive motion from other repetitions of the repetitive motion. A repetition in the parameter signal is analyzed using a signal processing technique. Curve fitting and/or autocorrelation may be used to analyze the repetition.
