A system is provided that presents video content on an electronic device such that, when a user swipes to dismiss the video content, non-video summary information or contextual material about the video content is automatically displayed in place of the video content. The non-video summary information is presented on a summary card dragged on-screen responsive to user swipe input. If, for example, the user swipes to dismiss a video advertisement before an informational payload of the video advertisement has been delivered, the informational payload can automatically be displayed in text format on a summary card dragged by the user in replacement of the dismissed video advertisement.

Provided are a generation apparatus and a reproduction apparatus that enable high-speed reproduction of a video to reduce load on a network and a client. In order to solve the above-described problem, a generation apparatus (10) according to one aspect of the present invention includes an information generation unit (111) configured to generate meta-information related to reproduction of a certain partial video in an entire video including partial videos from multiple viewpoints or line-of-sight directions, and a data generation unit (112) configured to generate data indicating a decimation video produced by decimating one or some frames from the certain partial video. A reproduction apparatus (20) according to one aspect of the present invention includes a reproduction processing unit (211) configured to reproduce, with reference to meta-information related to reproduction of a certain partial video in an entire video including partial videos from multiple viewpoints or line-of-sight directions, the certain partial video or a decimation video produced by decimating one or some frames from the certain partial video.

A server (20) stores person information in which a feature of an appearance and a feature of a motion of a person extracted from a video are associated with each other, searches for the person information using input information received from a terminal apparatus (10) as a key, and returns a search result to the terminal apparatus (10). The terminal apparatus (10) acquires and stores a part or a whole of the person information stored in the server (20) from the server (20), performs a search using the input information as a key, and displays the search result on a display as a candidate of information to be input in an input field.

The present invention relates to novel methods, tools and systems that provide an individual with the ability to define a personalized portion and evaluate food in real-world situations to offer guidance to the individual on the amount of the food the individual should eat as part of a controlled and consistent diet based on food volume. In particular, the methods, tools and systems of the present invention define food quanta personalized to the user, and further utilizes augmented reality to overlay a selected food quantum on real-world food in order to guide the user to select a definable food quantum, e.g., to achieve a dietary goal.

A novel system and method to implement a modified Learn-by-Teaching (LdL) method within a video-graphic context. The system and method include a narration step that is structured to cause the student or Group completing a Video Project to simultaneously engage different parts of the brain so as to work in concert to reinforce the proficiency skill being taught. During the narration step, the student must view a silent video while composing a textual script to serve as a voice-over narration. The student must then practice audibly reciting the script. The student is positively challenged during the narration step in two ways: achieve synchronicity with video, and to teaching an inanimate object in the form of an abstract audience of unknown scope. The combination of multi-modal actions and challenges facilitates implementation of a LdL method in a new and powerful way.

Systems and methods can support a data processing apparatus. The data processing apparatus can include a data processor that is associated with a data capturing device on a stationary object and/or a movable object. The data processor can receive data in a data flow from one or more data sources, wherein the data flow is configured based on a time sequence. Then, the data processor can receive a control signal, which is associated with a first timestamp, wherein the first timestamp indicates a first time. Furthermore, the data processor can determine a first data segment by applying the first timestamp on the data flow, wherein the first data segment is associated with a time period in the time sequence that includes the first time.

Provided is a processing apparatus including a processing unit that is connected to a data bus, and performs control involved with an image which is output by each of a plurality of image sensors connected to the data bus, through the data bus.

An exemplary virtual reality system includes a management device, a synchronization device, and a gatekeeper device communicatively coupled to the management device and the synchronization device by way of a network. The gatekeeper device is configured to receive, at a particular time, a frame of a surface data frame sequence that the gatekeeper device is responsible for processing. The gatekeeper device is also configured to transmit, to the synchronization device, the particular time at which the gatekeeper device received the frame, and to receive, from the synchronization device, a timeframe during which the gatekeeper device is to transmit the frame. The gatekeeper device is further configured to transmit, to the management device during the timeframe received from the synchronization device, the frame of the surface data frame sequence. Corresponding systems and methods are also disclosed.

Methods, systems, and techniques for projecting streamed video are provided. An Example Surround Video Projection System (SVPS) provides support for interacting with the displayed virtual reality environment, capturing a video of a user in the VR environment, and displaying the VR environment on deformations. Also, the SVPS may change the displayed VR environment responsive to attributes and/or characteristics of the user. In one example, the SVPS comprises a real time, interactive rendering system, a display system, and one or more display units. The rendering system comprises a high resolution graphics engine capable of generating high resolution video. The projection system comprises video capture cards to capture the generated video stream and forward it to a projection mapping engine. The projection mapping engine consolidates and stitches together the received video stream as appropriate to render the video stream over display units to the target viewing environment such as a dome/sphere.
