| 20110197242 | UNIVERSAL METHODS AND DEVICE FOR HAND-HELD PROMOTIONAL OPPORTUNITIES - A method and system for auxiliary data detection. Data is received on a hand-held device from a display of a signal on a monitor. The signal is visually displayed on the monitor at a frequency. A modulated video signal is received on the hand-held device from a display device. The modulated video signal contains auxiliary data modulated within a video signal in a substantially invisible way. The modulated video signal is demodulated to obtain the auxiliary data. At least one of the data or the auxiliary data is processed to identify a promotional opportunity available through the hand-held device. The user of the hand-held device is notified of availability of the promotional opportunity through the hand-held device. | 08-11-2011 |
| 20100274643 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MODULATING A VIDEO SIGNAL WITH DATA - A system for transmitting auxiliary data within a modulated video signal from a broadcast source to a hand-held device with a slot, the system comprising the broadcast source comprises means for transmitting auxiliary data to the slotted hand-held device via the modulated video signal; an interface device electronically coupled to the hand-held device via the slot and comprises a card microcontroller, a receiver electronically coupled to the card microcontroller for receiving the modulated video signal from the broadcast source, and circuitry electronically coupled to the card microcontroller and the receiver for demodulating the modulated video signal and reproducing the auxiliary data, and transferring the auxiliary data to the hand-held device via an interface protocol, and the hand-held device with the slot comprises a microcontroller for processing the signal auxiliary data received via the interface protocol from the interface device. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20100248687 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ENCODING AND DECODING AUDIO SIGNALS - Methods and systems for encoding and decoding audio signals are described. In one embodiment, a first DTMF tone in an audio signal may be identified and decoded. A second DTMF tone in the audio signal may be identified and decoded at a time delay from the first DTMF tone. A requested action is determined for an electronic figurine associated with the first DTMF tone and the second DTMF tone. The second DTMF tone is different than the first DTMF tone. Additional methods and systems are disclosed. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100141836 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ENHANCED MODULATION OF VIDEO SIGNALS - A method, apparatus and system for signal modulation. A plurality of pixels are selected in a pattern such that a first pixel group of the plurality of pixels is unpaired with a second pixel group of the plurality of pixels throughout the pattern in a portion of a video signal. The intensity of the plurality of the pixels is altered at a constant magnitude in the portion of the video signal pursuant to the pattern in a substantially invisible way. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20100002769 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENCODING AND DECODING INFORMATION IN DIGITAL SIGNAL CONTENT - Systems and methods for embedding and extracting data in a digital signal content are disclosed. In the various embodiments, a system includes a processing unit configured to receive the digital signal content and the data, and an encoder configured to embed the data into the digital signal content. In other of the various embodiments, a system includes a processing unit configured to receive a digital signal content having embedded data, and a decoder configured to extract the data from the digital signal content. | 01-07-2010 |
| 20090141793 | DUAL CHANNEL ENCODING AND DETECTION - Methods and systems for dual channel encoding and detection are described. In one embodiment, Auxiliary data may be encoded in an audio portion of one or more frames of a content signal based on an audio encoding technique. The auxiliary data may be encoded in a video portion of the one or more frames based on a video encoding technique. The encoding of the auxiliary data in the audio portion and the video portion may produce a modulated content signal. The modulated content signal may include one or more dual encoded frames. The dual encoded frames may include the auxiliary data encoded within the audio portion and the video portion of the one or more frames. Additional methods and systems are disclosed. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20090111584 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ENCODED INFORMATION PROCESSING - Methods and system for encoded information processing are described. In one embodiment, an encoded pattern may be optically detected from source media. Gaming data and associated synchronization data may be decoded from the encoded pattern. The gaming data may be synchronized for use during gaming based on the synchronization data. Additional methods and systems are disclosed. | 04-30-2009 |
| 20080305876 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR RESPONSE AUTHORIZATION - A method and system for response authorization. In one embodiment, authorization data and response data may be received over a paging network on a user device. The authorization data may be compared against a device identifier of the user device. A response indicated by the response data may be triggered on the user device based on a comparison of the authorization data to the device identifier. | 12-11-2008 |
