A system configured to be coupled with a participant of an activity. The system comprises: a participant activity monitoring unit configured for monitoring a performance of the activity by the participant; an activity information module configured for storing performance information corresponding to the activity; and a participant performance correlator configured for delivering comparative performance data based on the monitored performance of the activity by the participant and the stored performance information.

The present invention is directed to novel tools and systems that provide a method of selectively marketing to consumers, and which also address the expansion of the consumer base. In particular, the present invention provides methods of selective marketing to a consumer base by a provider using novel aggregated celebratory dates, as well as the tools and systems related thereto.

Disclosed are systems and methods that leverage machine learning techniques to provide information about items that are on display during a live event. A 3D volumetric capture system is used to construct a 3D representation of the event in real time. For example, depth and color data from multiple perspectives may be used to construct a 3D mesh of colored polygons that represent the scene. Users may view the live event with a 3D enabled virtual reality or augmented reality headset. Background subtraction may be used to isolate items of interest. In some configurations a machine learning model may process the 3D mesh to generate a textual description of items in the scene. The textual description may then be used to search for more information about a particular item. Additionally, or alternatively, the machine learning model may directly predict one or more items in the scene.

A computer-vision system or engine that (a) generates from a pixel stream a digital representation of a person and (b) determines attributes or characteristics of the person from that digital representation and (c) based on those attributes or characteristics, outputs data to a cloud-based analytics system that enables that analytics system to identify and also to authenticate the person. The attributes or characteristics of the person include their pose, and the system or engine analyses that pose to extract a facial image from a video stream that is the best facial image for use by the cloud-based analytics system to identify and authenticate the person. The computer-vision system or engine outputs the facial image to the cloud-based analytics system, but does not output the full-frame real-time video to the cloud-based analytics system.

A system and method are provided for local network public notification negotiation. A local network includes a plurality of neighborhood media nodes and each neighborhood media node is configured to project a plurality of n media message per a first time period to a general public. The media messages can be public service announcements, such as traffic or weather conditions, or public library hours to name a few examples. An interface associated with the neighborhood media nodes accepts local network program choices including neighborhood media node selections cross-referenced to media message selections. A local arbitrator arranges media messages for each node, resolves local network program choice conflicts, and supplies a local network selection decision to the neighborhood media nodes. The neighborhood media nodes project media messages in response to the local network selection decision. The media nodes can also be enabled to project messages from intra-neighborhood and remote sources.

The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods of providing content. A server can generate a request for a push content item for an account identifier linked with a computing device. The server can establish a push auction for the account identifier with multiple candidate push content items. The server can determine an auction score for each candidate push content item and select a push content item therefrom based on the auction score. The server can determine a parameter for the account identifier and control delivery of the selected push content item based on a delivery control policy. The server can compare a value of the parameter with a threshold value to authorize the push content item. The server can provide the selected and authorized push content item for presentation in a push content slot via the computing device linked to the account identifier.

Disclosed are a brand marketing system and method for naturally expressing a corporate brand logo in a video displaying a moving object. At least one first user terminal configured to generate and transmit video data obtained by capturing a moving object, and a video provision device configured to insert a predetermined corporate brand logo into a set logo display portion in the video data according to text data corresponding to an advertiser requirement are included.

A mobile device system comprises a database module, a location module (e.g., a pre-filter module), a learning module, a filter module, and a notification module. The database module is coupled with a network, including a mobile phone network. The location module is configured to dynamically update a current location of the mobile device in the mobile phone network. The learning module is configured to determine one or more certain content types associated with content configured to be displayed on the mobile device. The filter module is configured to dynamically filter the content configured to be displayed based on a plurality of categories. The notification module is coupled with the mobile phone network and configured to dynamically display updated content on the mobile device, wherein the updated content comprises the dynamically filtered content.
