An example telepresence terminal includes a lenticular display, an image sensor, an infrared emitter, and an infrared depth sensor. The terminal may determine image data using visible light emitted by the infrared emitter and captured by the image sensor and determine depth data using infrared light captured by the infrared depth sensor. The terminal may also communicate the depth data and the image data to a remote telepresence terminal and receive remote image data and remote depth data. The terminal may also generate a first display image using the lenticular display based on the remote image data that is viewable from a first viewing location and generate a second display image using the lenticular display based on the remote image data and the remote depth data that is viewable from a second viewing location.

The system and method include a clone server that receives high definition video streams from cameras. The clone server clones the high definition video streams to a clone of a clone server. The clone of a clone server generates low definition video streams from the high definition videos streams. The clone of a clone server streams the high definition video streams and the low definition video streams in parallel to a user computing device. The user computing device displays the received low definition video streams. A user selects one or more of the low definition video streams, and the user computing device displays a high definition video stream corresponding to the user selection.

The system and method includes a clone of a clone server that receives cloned copies of high definition video streams. The clone of a clone server generates low definition video streams from the high definition videos streams. The clone of a clone server streams parallel video streams to user computing devices that include both high definition video streams and low definition video streams. The clone of a clone server generates the low definition video streams from the high definition video streams and synchronizes the parallel video streams that are sent to the user computer device. The user computing device displays the received low definition video streams and a user selects one or more of the low definition video streams to be displayed in high definition on the user computer device.

The present invention provides systems and methods for providing television schedule and/or listing information to a viewer, and for allowing the viewer to link, search, select and interact with information in a remote database, e.g., a database on the internet. The television schedule and/or listing information can be displayed on a variety of viewer interfaces, such as televisions screens, computer monitors, PCTV screens and the like. The television schedule and/or listing information may be stored on the viewer's computer, television, PCTV, or a remote server (e.g., a website), or the television schedule and/or listing information may be downloaded from a remote database to the viewer's computer, television or PCTV.

A display system includes a display apparatus, a first terminal apparatus which transmits first image data, and a second terminal apparatus which transmits second image data. The display apparatus includes a communication unit that receives the first image data and the second image data, a display unit that displays a first image which is based on the first image data, and a second image which is based on the second image data, and a display control unit that changes at least one of an area for displaying the first image and an area for displaying the second image. The first terminal apparatus transmits the first image data to the display apparatus with a data amount that is determined according to the changed area for displaying the first image.

An image output apparatus is disclosed that is capable of switching between a normal status and a low power status in which consumption power is lower than that in the normal status. The image output apparatus includes an interface for acquiring an image signal; a signal detector configured to detect a signal at the interface; and a switching controller configured to switch a status from the low power status to the normal status based on a detection result of the signal in the low power status.

Disclosed are a display apparatus, and a method and an apparatus for setting up and controlling the display apparatus. The display apparatus includes a communicator configured to receive setting profile data of the display apparatus from an external device, and a controller configured to parse the received setting profile data and perform setting of the display apparatus based on the parsed setting profile data.

A content access device and system may allow portable remote devices to be paired with a variety of different devices, allowing remote control through a network connection. Content access devices may expose application program interfaces, allowing incoming network traffic to control operation of the device much in the same way that a local infrared remote would. Routing content commands through an external application server may also yield other benefits, such as allowing more customized selection of information and advertising content to users based on their viewing history.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to perform media device asset qualification are disclosed. An example apparatus includes at least one memory, and at least one processor to execute instructions to at least identify a first set of candidate media device assets for disqualification, the candidate media device assets including A) a signature and B) a media identifier that identifies media, generate a hash table using a second set of the candidate media device assets, determine one or more counts of matches between C) a first signature and a first media identifier of a first candidate media device asset of the second set and D) respective signatures and media identifiers of multiple ones of the second set using the hash table, the multiple ones of the second set not including the first candidate media device asset, and load the first signature into a reference database as a reference signature.

This invention relates generally to computer systems, and more specifically, to a premise monitoring system. In one embodiment, the invention includes operations of receiving one or more signals containing a device identifier and a device condition from one or more remote alarm monitoring systems; retrieving enhanced information based on the device identifier and/or the device condition; determining one or more communication methods and/or communication destinations based on the device identifier and/or the device condition; and dispatching the enhanced information to the one or more communication destinations using the one or more communication methods.
