摘要： The invention provides a system and method that transforms a set of still/motion media (i.e., a series of related or unrelated still frames, web-pages rendered as images, or video clips) or other multimedia, into a video stream that is suitable for delivery over a display medium, such as TV, cable TV, computer displays, wireless display devices, etc. The video data stream may be presented and displayed in real time or stored and later presented through a set-top box, for example. Because these media are transformed into coded video streams (e.g. MPEG-2, MPEG-4, etc.), a user can watch them on a display screen without the need to connect to the Internet through a service provider. The user may request and interact with the desired media through a simple telephone interface, for example. Moreover, several wireless and cable-based services can be developed on the top of this system. In one possible embodiment, the system for generating a coded video sequence may include an input unit that receives the multimedia input and extracts image data, and derives the virtual camera scripts and coding hints from the image data, a video sequence generator that generates a video sequence based on the extracted image data and the derived virtual camera scripts and coding hints, and a video encoder that encodes the generated video sequence using the coding hints and outputs the coded video sequence to an output device. The system may also provide customized video sequence generation services to subscribers.

摘要： A method of improving the lighting conditions of a real scene or video sequence. Digitally generated light is added to a scene for video conferencing over telecommunication networks. A virtual illumination equation takes into account light attenuation, lambertian and specular reflection. An image of an object is captured, a virtual light source illuminates the object within the image. In addition, the object can be the head of the user. The position of the head of the user is dynamically tracked so that an three-dimensional model is generated which is representative of the head of the user. Synthetic light is applied to a position on the model to form an illuminated model.

摘要： A novel mechanism is disclosed by which a sender can direct information such as an audiovisual signal to a particular recipient's audiovisual display device, such as a cable television set and, thereby, share information between the sender and the recipient. In one embodiment of the invention, a calling party originates a telephone call and associates that telephone call with audio-visual information that exists on the caller's personal computer or on an Internet server. The called party answers the call, and can tune an associated cable television to the appropriate channel in order to view the audio-visual information. In another embodiment, the caller is a hotel guest and the called party is a hotel concierge and vice versa. The concierge provides information to the hotel guest such that the hotel guest can tune in to a channel on their hotel television set and access the information.

摘要： Active intelligent content is aware of its own timeline, lifecycle, capabilities, limitations, and related information. The active intelligent content is aware of its surroundings and can convert automatically into a format or file type more conducive to the device or environment it is stored in. If the active intelligent content does not have the required tools to make such a transformation, it is self-aware enough to seek out the tools and/or information to make that transformation. Such active intelligent content can be used for enhanced file portability, target advertising, personalization of media, and selective encryption, enhancement, and restriction. The content can also be used to collaborate with other content and provide users with enhanced information based on user preferences, ratings, costs, genres, file types, and the like.

摘要： According to MPEG-4's TTS architecture, facial animation can be driven by two streams simultaneously—text and Facial Animation Parameters. A Text-To-Speech converter drives the mouth shapes of the face. An encoder sends Facial Animation Parameters to the face. The text input can include codes, or bookmarks, transmitted to the Text-to-Speech converter, which are placed between and inside words. The bookmarks carry an encoder time stamp. Due to the nature of text-to-speech conversion, the encoder time stamp does not relate to real-world time, and should be interpreted as a counter. The Facial Animation Parameter stream carries the same encoder time stamp found in the bookmark of the text. The system reads the bookmark and provides the encoder time stamp and a real-time time stamp. The facial animation system associates the correct facial animation parameter with the real-time time stamp using the encoder time stamp of the bookmark as a reference.
