203 results about "Content creator" patented technology

A content creator is someone who is responsible for the contribution of information to any media and most especially to digital media. They usually target a specific end-user/audience in specific contexts.

Smartphone-Based Methods and Systems

Arrangements involving portable devices (e.g., smartphones and tablet computers) are disclosed. One arrangement enables a content creator to select software with which that creator's content should be rendered—assuring continuity between artistic intention and delivery. Another utilizes a device camera to identify nearby subjects, and take actions based thereon. Others rely on near field chip (RFID) identification of objects, or on identification of audio streams (e.g., music, voice). Some technologies concern improvements to the user interfaces associated with such devices. Others involve use of these devices in connection with shopping, text entry, sign language interpretation, and vision-based discovery. Still other improvements are architectural in nature, e.g., relating to evidence-based state machines, and blackboard systems. Yet other technologies concern use of linked data in portable devices—some of which exploit GPU capabilities. Still other technologies concern computational photography. A great variety of other features and arrangements are also detailed.

Methods and apparatus for broadcasting interactive advertising using remote advertising templates

Described are methods and apparatus for enhancing a television advertisement simultaneously displayed on a number of remote receivers. In one embodiment, one or more advertisement templates are stored in memory on each of the remote receivers. The templates include formatting information and data fields into which can be inserted predefined types of information. For example, a selected template may be adapted to receive and display an advertiser's name, product, and a hyperlink to the advertiser's web site. A content creator, (e.g., a program producer, broadcaster, affiliate, cable company or satellite provider), embeds an advertisement summary in a data service channel of a broadcast signal. The advertisement summary includes a resource identifier unique to a selected one of the advertisement templates. Upon receiving an advertisement summary directed to a resident advertisement template, the receiver combines custom advertisement information provided in the advertisement summary with formatting information provided in the advertisement template. The receiver employs the combined information to create and display a custom advertisement, which may include hyperlinks to additional produce or service information.

Systems and Methods for Implementing Blockchain-Based Content Engagement Platforms Utilizing Media Wallets

Systems and methods are described for implementing blockchain-based content engagement platforms. In several embodiments, the content engagement platform includes a registry service which enables verified content creators to mint Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). In many embodiments, media wallet applications enable users to securely store NFTs and / or other tokens on their devices. In a number of embodiments, the media wallet applications collect data concerning media consumed by users and aggregate the media consumption data in a permissioned analytics blockchain. The manner in which the media consumption data is stored can enable users to control permission to access their personal data. In one embodiment, a media wallet is provided that can securely store NFTs, display a user interface through which user instructions concerning data access permissions are received, and cause media consumption data to be written to at least one immutable ledger in conjunction with a set of data access permissions.

Techniques for remotely delivering shaped display presentations such as advertisements to computing platforms over information communications networks

A high impact desktop or palmtop product placement or “shaper” display presentation technique overcomes disadvantages of previous ad display techniques while providing high consumer interest and increased flexibility for content creators. An advertisement is run in front of or behind a web browser view so it appears with the user's desktop as background, and in a non-rectangular shape that looks nothing like a traditional pop-up or pop-under ad. A “shaper” ad can, for example, have any desired shape such as for example an exact replica of a product being advertised e.g., a cell phone, a Sports Utility Vehicle climbing a mountain, a plasma television set, etc.

Systems and methods for preventing unauthorized use of digital content

InactiveUS7237123B2Reduce eliminate broadly disseminated effectivenessNontrivial taskRandom number generatorsUser identity/authority verificationDigital contentProtection mechanism
Theft, distribution, and piracy of digital content (software, video, audio, e-books, any content of any kind that is digitally stored and distributed) is generally accomplished by copying it, if possible, or, if it is protected from being copied in any fashion, such piracy is based upon a number of reverse engineering techniques. Aside from the straightforward copying of unprotected content, all of these other methods require first an understanding of the protective mechanism(s) guarding the content, and finally an unauthorized modification of that protection in order to disable or subvert it. Methods that prevent a skilled individual from using reverse engineering tools and techniques to attain that level of understanding and / or prevent anyone from performing such modifications can offer significant advantages to content creators who wish to protect their products.

Method and system for matching appropriate content with users by matching content tags and profiles

A method and system is provided for classifying and labeling information content (e.g., websites, databases, or the like) and also for profiling a user (e.g., interests or responsibilities) for accessing the information content, both using a coordinated labeling technique so that content from multiple sources may be searched, identified and / or presented to the user according to the user's profile. This technique provides an ongoing update of information content and sources while at the same time filtering out unnecessary information that is irrelevant to the user's profile, resulting in more focused availability of information to the user. The user profile is matched with content of interest (as tagged by content creators reflective of categories that is also employed by a user profile) and matching content information may automatically be updated and made available to a user, in conformity with the user's profile. Content providers may now jointly use a common labeling scheme to improve the experience of their users and to provide content providers a technique to associate users with common facets of classification.

Content Management System for Resume and Portfolio Data for Producing Multiple Interactive Websites

The Invention is a rich internet application that enables a User (content creator) to store and manage career Content (text, images, audio / video, and other media) in a database or file system over the internet in a way that the Content can be selected, retrieved, edited, and reused to create multiple, custom, and interactive resumes and websites from the Content. The invention captures and stores data at an Element level (i.e. a single resume bullet rather than an entire resume or a larger block of text) which enables versioning, selection, comparison, and maintenance of the Elements and enables Associations (stored relationships, links) between Elements (e.g. between a keyword and a resume bullet, or between a resume bullet and a Storyboard multimedia object). The method of storing, managing, and associating Elements facilitates the creation of multiple custom resumes and websites and yields interactive and concurrent views of the User's Content.

A centralized content management system is provided. The system may balance interests among content creators, content owners, advertisers, consumers, and / or others in a content transaction chain. Media, advertising, or other types of content may have a content licensing platform embedded therein. The platform may enable a centralized clearinghouse to automatically monitor consumption of various types of content. Accordingly, the clearinghouse may use the monitored information to pay owners of consumed media content, invoice sponsors of consumed advertising content, build consumer profiles, or other things. Furthermore, content asset transaction value may be maximized throughout the chain, as content creators may establish prices for their content, advertisers may compete for ad-insertion, and consumers may establish a desired price for content using a variable pricing scheme.
