11601729 · 2023-03-07 ·

A highlight transmission service allows users of communication devices to view highlights of sporting events while the sporting events are occurring without having to watch the sporting events. For example, a computer-implemented method may comprise: determining that a highlight of a sporting event is to be conveyed to a communication device; and transmitting data regarding the highlight of the sporting event to the communication device over a network during the sporting event in order to allow a user of the communication device to view the highlight of the sporting event.

A method for distributing information includes producing a symbol to be overlaid on at least one primary image presented on a first display screen, the symbol encoding a specified digital value in a set of color elements having different, respective colors. A message is received from a client device containing an indication of the specified digital value decoded by the client device upon capturing and analyzing a secondary image of the first display screen. In response to the message, an item of information relating to the primary image is transmitted to the client device, for presentation on a second display screen associated with the client device.

Method for processing television screenshot, smart television, and storage medium

The present invention relates to the technical field of televisions, and provides a method for processing a television screenshot, a smart television, and a storage medium. To meet the demands of a more intuitive user interface and a seamless user interaction function, multiple sets of optional bars are displayed while displaying current playback content on a display screen in response to an input screenshot operation instruction, wherein optional bars are respectively used for displaying a picture thumbnail of a screenshot, recognizing content-related recommended content on the basis of an image of the screenshot, and/or responding to a user control instruction input interface for an operation associated with the screenshot.

Creative intent scalability via physiological monitoring

Creative intent input describing emotion expectations and narrative information relating to media content is received. Expected physiologically observable states relating to the media content are generated based on the creative intent input. An audiovisual content signal with the media content and media metadata comprising the physiologically observable states is provided to a playback apparatus. The audiovisual content signal causes the playback device to use physiological monitoring signals to determine, with respect to a viewer, assessed physiologically observable states relating to the media content and generate, based on the expected physiologically observable states and the assessed physiologically observable states, modified media content to be rendered to the viewer.

Electronic apparatus and control method thereof

An electronic apparatus includes: a display; a communication circuit configured to communicate with an external apparatus; and a processor. The processor is configured to: transmit, to the external apparatus, a request to receive information on a screen which is currently displayed on the external apparatus, receive, from the external apparatus, a response corresponding to the request, based on the response, identify a number of contents displayed in the screen, based on identifying that a plurality of contents is displayed in the screen, display a UI on the display for selecting one among the plurality of contents, in response to a content, among the plurality of contents, being selected by a user input through the UI, transmit a signal indicating the selected content to the external apparatus, and receive, from the external apparatus, data corresponding to the content to display an image on the display.

Cross-device information display method and device, and storage medium

A cross-device information display method and device, and a storage medium are provided. The method includes that a mobile terminal sends, real-time target information of the mobile terminal to a target device to allow the target device to display the target information in response to determining that the target device is a trusted device of the mobile terminal.

Method and apparatus for redirecting portions of content to alternate communication channels

Systems and methods for displaying primary content without any overlaid secondary content, and instead transmitting the secondary content to the viewer as a message through another communication channel. For example, a news banner is removed from display on a viewer's television, and the text of the news banner is encapsulated in a message sent to the viewer's primary social media account. In this manner, the viewer may watch the primary content uninterrupted by the secondary content, and is thus presented with fewer distractions and a potentially more enjoyable viewing experience.

Augmented reality display for content consumption relative to a field of view

Systems and methods are presented herein for generating an augmented reality (“AR”) display with user interface (“UI”) elements that respond to changes in pupil characteristics in response to detecting device streaming content. A media stream playing on a device that is within a threshold distance of the AR device is detected. The source of the media stream is identified. The AR device queries the source of the media stream for a consumption option. An AR overlay is generated and comprises selectable UI elements corresponding to the consumption options. In response to receiving an input at a UI element, the AR overlay is generated based on the consumption option.

PROVIDING A REMOTE KEYBOARD SERVICE

The systems described herein provide a remote keyboard service for a media device on a computing device without having to invoke an application or unlock the computing device. The computing device can receive a message indicating that a text input field on the other device is selected and present a notification to the user prompting the user to invoke the virtual keyboard on the computing device to provide text input to the selected text input field. The computing device can receive user input selecting the notification and present a virtual keyboard for providing text input to the other device. The computing device can receive keyboard input from the user selecting characters and send the characters to the other device. The other device can then user the characters as text input to the selected text input field.
