Abstract:
A network device receives, from a first video camera system, position information for a first video camera at a first site and sends, to a second video camera system, position instructions for a second video camera at a second site. The position instructions are configured to locate the second video camera within the second site to correspond to a relative position of the first camera in the first site. The network device receives, from the first video camera system, a first video feed including images of the first site and receives, from the second video camera system, a second video feed including images of a subject of the second site. The network device combines the first video feed and the second video feed to generate a synchronized combined video feed that overlays the images of the subject of the second video feed in images of the first site.
Abstract:
A method, apparatus, and user interface for providing a network based surround-light environment to dynamically drive lighting scenes are described. Location information of one or more illuminating elements relative to a display for presenting media information is determined. Lighting characteristic information for the one or more illuminating elements is determined. And a lighting profile for illuminating the one or more illuminating elements based on the location information and lighting characteristic information is determined.
Abstract:
Exemplary methods and systems for verifying human interaction with a computer interface are described herein. An exemplary method includes a human-interaction verification system detecting a request by an access device to access network-based content, providing, for display by the access device, a visually dynamic representation of one or more security images associated with a passcode in response to the access request, receiving, by way of the access device, challenge-response input associated with the visually dynamic representation of the one or more security images, and performing an access operation based at least in part on a comparison of the challenge-response input to the passcode.

Abstract:
An exemplary method includes a media content recovery system 1) detecting that a DVR device is tuned to a first channel used by a media content provider to distribute a first media content program, 2) dynamically storing, in response to the detecting, first program data representative of the first media content program in a local buffer residing on the DVR device and in a recovery buffer as the first media content program is distributed by the media content provider, and 3) directing the DVR device to use the first program data stored in the local buffer to present the first media content program by way of a display while the DVR device is tuned to the first channel. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
