An electronic device including a display device configured to render first content. The electronic device is communicably coupled to the display device and controls one or more imaging devices to receive one or more images from the one or more imaging devices. The electronic device further determines a first position of one or more living objects within a pre-defined region from the display device, based on the received one or more images and the rendered first content. The electronic device further controls an orientation of the display device towards the determined first position of the one or more living objects.

A device, method and system for changing content of live broadcast media is provided. The device associated with a given location, and analyzes live broadcast media to determine presence of one or more of a person of interest (POI) and an event of interest (EOI), the live broadcast media being provided at one or more display screens at the given location, the live broadcast media originating external to the given location. The device analyzes one or more images captured by one or more cameras located at the given location to determine whether one or more of the POI and the EOI meets a condition for causing harm to one or more persons indicated in the one or more images. The device, responsive to the POI or the EOI meeting the condition, changes content of the live broadcast media.

Disclosed is systems and methods for controlling a video display of a computing device during malfunction. The systems and methods can include receiving a first video stream and determining that the first video stream includes an error message for display on the video display. Once an error message is detected, a second video stream can be transmitted to the video display. The second video stream can include an alternate message for display on the video display.

A display system includes: a plurality of secondary display units that respectively display a plurality of videos; a primary display unit that displays at least one of the plurality of videos; a detection unit that detects a number of viewers of each of the plurality of secondary display units; and a control unit that causes the primary display unit to display a same video as the video being displayed by the secondary display unit having a highest number of viewers among the plurality of secondary display units, based on the numbers of viewers detected by the detection unit.

An apparatus, system, and methods for displaying information and advertisements in public or private venues including a body portion adapted to a seat structure or other seat supported apparatus, either as a base unit or a retrofit apparatus, wherein the seat structure or seating apparatus may provide the structure and housing for electronics necessary to power and control an electronic display that may be disposed on an adjustable modular bracket system that may be attached to a seat, a seat back, a cupholder, a cupholder attachment apparatus, a portable or mobile device attachment apparatus, which may be accessible, visible, and/or useable by a patron at a public venue.

A system and method for remunerating a display of a cognate substitute image sequence is disclosed. Images sequences in received video content are examined for sequences that are cognate to known image sequences. When detected, such sequences are replaced with cognate substitute image sequences to create a modified video image stream that is displayed on a display screen. A reasonable remuneration for displaying the cognate substitute image is automatically calculated. This monetary charge reflects the nature of the image sequence, the time it was displayed for, the time at which was displayed and the number of electronic devices within viewing range of the display at the time of display. This remuneration is accumulated, and equivalent digital assets automatically transferred between client and provider accounts at an appropriate time.

A method for displaying media content on devices respectively linked to media players from a group of media players. The method includes the acts of: transmitting to the media players configuration data including data; transmitting data corresponding to the media content to at least one of the media players; transmitting to the media players data corresponding to a multicast address and to an entry port; selecting by the server a master media player among the at least one media player which received the data corresponding to the media content; sending by the master media player a multicast media stream using the multicast address and the entry port, the multicast media stream being obtained by the master media player from the data corresponding to the media content.

A system includes a primary playback system and a secondary playback system. The primary playback system plays back selected content. The secondary playback system plays back supplemental media associated with the content played back on the primary playback system. A media playback function (such as associated with the secondary playback system) monitors playback of the content on the primary playback system. For example, a first processing thread of the media playback function initially synchronizes playback of supplemental media on the secondary playback system with respect to playback of the content on the primary playback system. Based on further monitoring of playing back the content on the secondary playback system, a second processing thread of the media playback function verifies synchronization (and, when needed, initiates re-synchronization) of playback of the supplemental media on the secondary playback system with respect to playback of the content on the primary playback system.

Systems and methods relate to display of insights, including a method including: causing a user display to display a graphical user interface (GUI) that enables a user to select a time range and a single digital display as a locale; and causing, based on the user selecting the time range and the single digital display as the locale, the user display to display, on the GUI, a list of a plurality of media content that have been displayed on the single digital display, each of the plurality of media content being ordered according to analysis insight for the single digital display selected and the time range selected. The analysis insight may include at least impression counts that are counts of views by people of the plurality of media content on one or more digital displays associated with the locale.

The present invention relates to a method and a system for transmitting alternative image content of a physical display to different viewers, comprising: generating at least two different sets of image data, each set of image data comprising a sequence of individual images; displaying the images of said at least two sets of image data in a time-sliced multiplexed manner at a high display frame rate (HDFR) on said physical display; generating at least two video streams of a scene which includes said physical display, wherein at least one video stream consisting of video frames captured synchronously with the displaying of images of one of said at least two sets of image data is generated at a slow motion frame rate (SMFR) which is an integer multiple of a standard broadcasting frame rate (SBFR); and transmitting said video streams to a sub-set of said viewers at said standard broadcasting frame rate (SBFR).
