Scientific system and method for optimizing television advertising
ActiveUS12506553B2Specific information broadcast systemsBroadcast services for monitoring/identification/recognitionFeedback loopSocial media
A scientific system and methods are disclosed for optimizing television (e.g., “CTV” and “OTT”) advertising and related expenditure to maximize efficiency and return on investment (“ROI’) for advertisers. The scientific system comprises an initial-feedback engine that develops and refines creatives or outcomes by creating and using an artificial intelligence (“AI”) engine that creates an initial feedback loop from social media platforms and subsequently uses an intelligent advertisement-selection engine that takes the highest performing advertising on the social media platforms and directs or imports them for connected television or over-the-top advertising. The system includes a performance engine that optimizes performance of the connected television and over-the-top advertising and then moves the winning combination of a creative or outcome resulting from the application inventory, the audience segment, the part of day, the frequency or the like to linear television purchase actions.

Systems and / or methods for distributing advertisements from a central advertisement network to a peripheral device via a local advertisement server
Certain exemplary embodiments disclosed herein relate to systems and / or methods for distributing advertisements from a central advertisement network to one or more peripheral devices at a location via a local advertisement server. In certain exemplary embodiments, the local advertisement server within a location receives advertisements from the central advertisement network and rebroadcasts them to peripheral devices within that location. Advertising information may be tracked and reported, e.g., for accounting, revenue-sharing, and / or other purposes in certain exemplary embodiments. Thus, in certain exemplary embodiments, the distribution of advertisements is provided to peripherals via a non-web- and non-PC-dependent network. Moreover, in certain exemplary embodiments, reporting and advertising related communications are substantially bi-directional regardless of device type. Certain exemplary embodiments provide revenue sharing among some or all of the central advertising network provider, the proprietors of locations, operators tasked with maintaining the local ad server and / or the peripheral devices, etc.

Cooperation between cloud-based application and media automation system for content delivery
A cloud-based application is implemented on a processing system in communication with a media automation system via a communications network. The cloud-based application includes instructions to obtain user information associated with a user of the cloud-based application, to transmit the user information through the communications network to the media automation system, and to transmit a request for available media items through the communications network to the media automation system, which selects available media items in accordance with the user information. In response to its request for available media items, the cloud-based application receives from the media automation system a message identifying at least one media item to be delivered to the user. The cloud-based application transmits the at least one media item to the user of the cloud-based application via the communications network.

System for data regionalization and retransmission based on broadcast reception conditions and user preferences
ActiveUS12388546B2Lower station broadcast interaction arrangementBroadcast information relayingComputer networkSocial media
A system ensures reception in low reception or no reception areas and adds regionalized experiences in digital broadcasting. The system includes main transmitter stations and many local or regional transceiver stations. Feedback exists between the local and main transmitter stations to fine tune the transmitted signals based on reception quality, location and the like. The addition of localized or regional content is based on parameters such as user preferences and local data. The regionalized content may vary from local news, local advertisements, customized advertisements, advertisement placement based on social media services data, local emergency warnings, and other parameters. The system addresses both reception issues as well as content regionalization blended with original channel information that are of interest to users of a specific region.

Automatically restricting placement of media items within a media schedule
ActiveUS12368522B2Broadcast characteristics identification/recognitionAudio data retrievalComputer networkTelecommunications
A broadcast order placed by a requestor is received at a first processing device configured to implement an automated media scheduling system. The broadcast order includes a request to prohibit placement of at least one media item within a threshold proximity of a restricted media show. In response to receiving the broadcast order, the automated media scheduling system modifies at least one record associated with the requestor to indicate the request. During automated schedule generation, the automated media scheduling system prevents the at least one media item from being scheduled within the threshold proximity of the restricted media show.

Systems and methods for localized adaptive content distribution
A method, a rules engine and a non-transitory computer readable medium to enable switching between multiple broadcasting streams. The method comprises providing, via a communication network, a first live broadcasting stream of a first content stream origination source to a playback device; providing, via the rules engine, over the communication network, a switchover marker, instructing the playback device to switch to the second live broadcasting stream from the first live broadcasting stream; and providing, via the communication network, the second live broadcasting stream of the second content stream origination source to the playback device, wherein the second live broadcasting stream is being provided in response to the switchover marker.
