International Classification:
G06F 15/16, G09G 5/00
US Classification:
709218000, 715864000
Abstract:
A wireless data processing module for use with a portable audio or video player. The module connects to the expansion port connector on an existing player which provides an interface port for exchanging data and control signals between the auxiliary module and the player. The module includes a radio receiver for receiving data signals from a wireless data transmission network that are temporarily stored in a cache memory. A controller responsive to operating commands accepted from a user interoperates with the player to selectively play program content that is persistently stored by the player and to render selected data signals in the cache memory in an audible or visual form perceptible to said user, thereby supplementing the content available to the user with recently produced content provided via the wireless network.

Assignee:

International Classification:
H04N 5/91
US Classification:
386280
Abstract:
A system and method of adding hyperlinked information to a television broadcast in which an interactive content icon is used. The broadcast material is analyzed and one or more regions within a frame are identified. Additional information can be associated with a region, and can be transmitted in encoded form, using timing information to identify the frame with which the information is associated. The system comprising a video source and an encoder that produces a transport stream in communication with the video source, an annotation source, a data packet stream generator that produces encoded annotation data packets in communication with the annotation source and the encoder, and a multiplexer system in communication with the encoder and the data packet stream generator. The encoder provides timestamp information to the data packet stream generator and the data packet stream generator synchronizes annotation data from the annotation source with a video signal from the video source in response to the timestamp information. The multiplexer generates a digital broadcast signal that includes an augmented transport stream from the transport stream and the encoded data packets. A receiver displays the annotation information associated with the video signal in response to a viewer request on a frame by frame basis. A viewer can respond interactively to the material, including performing commercial transactions, by using a backchannel that is provided for interactive communication. The interactive content icon can be used to inform a viewer of the presence of hyperlinked information, for teaching the viewer how to use the system, and for informing the viewer about the hyperlinked information.

International Classification:
G09G005/00, G06F015/16
US Classification:
345/864000, 709/217000
Abstract:
In a system and method for the display, or presentation, of electronic information in an ambient, or pre-attentive, form, a centralized server converts textual or quantitative data into a form suitable for remotely located non-textual ambient displays, or objects. The conversion, or translation, of the information occurs in response to a set of rules which may be fixed at the server, or otherwise modifiable by a user of the display, for example via Web-based interface, or at the display itself. The translated data, referred to herein as “ambient data” is in compressed, encoded form, so as to optimize the efficiency of its periodic transmission of such data to multiple remotely located recipient displays. In one example, the display comprises an analog-type gauge having a hand that varies in angular or linear offset, or multiple hands that independently vary in angular or linear offset, in response to the received ambient data. In another example, the transmission of data from the information server to the ambient displays occurs via a one-way or two-way wireless network.

Abstract:
A reflective LCD, electronic ink or electrophoretic display panel presents a five day weather forecast representative of weather forecast data transmitted to the display location via a commercial paging service from a remote server. The server obtains forecast data from a commercial weather service, reformats selected data into compressed encoded data for efficient transmission in data packets simulcast to remote display devices via the paging network.

International Classification:
A45B 25/00
US Classification:
135016000
Abstract:
A weather forecasting umbrella includes a display device in the umbrella's handle that provides a visual indication of the day's weather, such as the probability of precipitation. The display device may take the form of one or more lamps that emit a color, or flash at a varying rate, to indicate forecast weather conditions. The weather forecast that is displayed is preferably obtained using a wireless receiver built into the umbrella that receives data via a wireless paging or cell broadcast network. A display screen may be used to display forecasted information in more detail, including the likelihood of precipitation and/or the forecast high and low temperature for the day.
