| 20120117592 | System And Method For Dynamically Transmitting Network Alert System (NAS) Information From Television Network To Stations Using Information Embedded In An HDTV Signal - A system for dynamically transmitting network alert system (NAS) information from a television network to an affiliate station using information embedded in an HDTV signal includes a program data server configured to provide network alert system (NAS) data, a network video programming source configured to provide network video programming, a data inserter configured to insert the NAS data into vertical ancillary (VANC) space of a high definition television (HDTV) signal to develop a combined network video programming and NAS data signal, and a transmission facility configured to transmit the combined network video programming and NAS data signal. | 05-10-2012 |
| 20120008825 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DYNAMICALLY TRACKING AND INDICATING A PATH OF AN OBJECT - A system for dynamically tracking and indicating a path of an object comprises an object position system for generating three-dimensional object position data comprising an object trajectory, a software element for receiving the three-dimensional object position data, the software element also for determining whether the three-dimensional object position data indicates that an object has exceeded a boundary, and a graphics system for displaying the object trajectory. | 01-12-2012 |
| 20110248773 | System And Method For Sensing Human Activity By Monitoring Impedance - A system for sensing human activity by monitoring impedance includes a signal generator for generating an alternating current (AC) signal, the AC signal applied to an object, a reactance altering element coupled to the AC signal, an envelope generator for converting a returned AC signal to a time-varying direct current (DC) signal, and an analog-to-digital converter for determining a defined impedance parameter of the time-varying DC signal, where the defined impedance parameter defines an electromagnetic resonant attribute of the object. | 10-13-2011 |
| 20110243377 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PREDICTING OBJECT LOCATION - A system for predicting object location includes a video capture system for capturing a plurality of video frames, each of the video frames having a first area, an object isolation element for locating an object in each of the plurality of video frames, the object being located at a first actual position in a first video frame and being located at a second actual position in a second video frame, and a trajectory calculation element configured to analyze the first actual position and the second actual position to determine an object trajectory, the object trajectory comprising past trajectory and predicted future trajectory, wherein the predicted future trajectory is used to determine a second area in a subsequent video frame in which to search for the object, wherein the second area is different in size than the first area. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20110243327 | SYSTEM AND METHOD TO PREVENT AUDIO WATERMARK DETECTION - A system to prevent audio watermark detection includes content having a video portion and an audio portion, the audio portion having a watermark, an audio/video separator configured to separate the video portion and the audio portion, and a random number generator configured to generate a random number corresponding to a shifted frequency. The system also includes a frequency shift element configured to apply the shifted frequency to the audio portion to alter a spectrum of the watermark so as to prevent detection of the watermark by a device seeking to recover the watermark. The system also includes an audio resampler configured to resample the audio portion to restore the audio portion to an original length, and an audio/video combiner configured to combine the video portion and the audio portion. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20100139176 | SYSTEM, METHOD, OR APPARATUS RELATING TO A RECONFIGURABLE COMMUNAL SPACE - Embodiments of methods, apparatuses, devices and systems associated with a reconfigurable communal space are disclosed. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20090219381 | SYSTEM AND/OR METHOD FOR PROCESSING THREE DIMENSIONAL IMAGES - The subject matter disclosed herein relates to a method and/or system for projection of images to appear to an observer as one or more three-dimensional images. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20090088255 | PODBLASTING-CONNECTING A USB PORTABLE MEDIA DEVICE TO A CONSOLE - Embodiments of the present invention provide techniques for aiding users of game consoles in creating custom gameplay data for a music video game based on audio data (e.g., songs) stored on a portable media device. Specific embodiments provide a game console application that can receive a song at a game console from a portable media device, and receive user inputs to generate custom gameplay data associated with the song. The gameplay data may then be saved to the portable storage device and later accessed, either at the same or a different game console, to allow a user to play the music video game in accordance with the gameplay data and the audio data. In this manner, users can create and share custom gameplay content for a music video game based on songs stored on their portable media devices. | 04-02-2009 |
