US Patent:
6665835, Dec 16, 2003
Filed:
Dec 23, 1997
Appl. No.:
08/996690
Inventors:
Steven Gutfreund - Brighton MA
John R. Nicol - Framingham MA
Kimberly Rush - Winchester MA
Christopher M. Martin - Walpole MA
James Paschetto - Lincoln MA
Assignee:
Verizon Laboratories, Inc. - Waltham MA
International Classification:
G06F 1500
US Classification:
7155001, 7155011, 345723
Abstract:
A media journaling method and apparatus provides an ability for capturing an event, such as a seminar style presentation with visual aids, in real-time and coordinating other related events as they occur, and then processing the combination to create a synchronized multimedia record of events. The presentation is captured in real-time, and the audio/video converted to digital format, and using post-processing techniques, within a very short period thereafter, the related presentation material such as slides and user notes are combined and synchronized therewith. The new presentation is then made available on a network such as the Internet through a media journal player. The player is, for example, web browser based and allows the user to view the whole presentation, or allows for seeking to different places in the presentation while maintaining the synchronization. A user is able to add new events that are synchronized to the presentation using a timing event coordinator that tracks relative discrete time changes of the new events.
