    • 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.
    • 本发明提供一种系统和方法,其将一组静止/运动媒体(即,一系列相关或不相关的静止帧,呈现为图像的网页或视频剪辑)或其他多媒体转换为适合的视频流 用于通过诸如电视,有线电视,计算机显示器,无线显示设备等的显示介质的传送。例如,可以实时地呈现和显示视频数据流,或者通过机顶盒存储和显示视频数据流。 由于这些媒体被转换为编码视频流(例如,MPEG-2,MPEG-4等),用户可以在显示屏上观看它们,而不需要通过服务提供商连接到因特网。 例如,用户可以通过简单的电话接口来请求和与期望的媒体交互。 此外,可以在该系统的顶部开发几种基于无线和有线的服务。 在一个可能的实施例中,用于生成编码视频序列的系统可以包括接收多媒体输入并提取图像数据并从图像数据导出虚拟相机脚本和编码提示的输入单元,产生视频的视频序列生成器 基于提取的图像数据和导出的虚拟相机脚本和编码提示的序列,以及使用编码提示对所生成的视频序列进行编码并将编码的视频序列输出到输出装置的视频编码器。 该系统还可以向订户提供定制的视频序列生成服务。

    • 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. The caller can modify the audio-visual information during the call. Accordingly, the current invention ties together the telephone, cable, and IP networks in a manner that does not require large investments from cable or telephone service providers. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, a called party, such as a representative at a customer service center or an interactive voice response unit, can associate audio-visual information with the call such that the calling party can see the data on the appropriate television channel. In another embodiment, the telephone keypad can be used to move forwards and backwards through a series of audio-visual screens. In another embodiment, the cable subscriber can preset the television to a particular URL which can be viewed, but not navigated, without the telephone call.
    • 公开了一种新颖的机制,通过该机制,发送者可以将诸如视听信号的信息引导到特定接收者的诸如有线电视机的视听显示设备,从而在发送者和接收者之间共享信息。 在本发明的一个实施例中,呼叫方发起电话呼叫,并将该电话呼叫与存在于呼叫者的个人计算机或因特网服务器上的视听信息相关联。 被叫方应答呼叫,并且可以将相关的有线电视调谐到适当的频道以便观看视听信息。 呼叫者可以在通话期间修改视听信息。 因此,本发明将电话,电缆和IP网络以不需要有线或电话服务提供商的大量投资的方式联系在一起。 在本发明的替代实施例中,被叫方(例如客户服务中心的代表或交互式语音响应单元)可以将视听信息与呼叫相关联,使得主叫方可以在适当的电视机上看到数据 渠道。 在另一个实施例中,电话键盘可用于通过一系列视听屏幕向前和向后移动。 在另一个实施例中,电缆用户可以将电视机预设为特定URL,无需电话呼叫即可查看但不进行导航。

    • A message sender status monitor is used to determine the communication status of the sender of an electronic message. In the case of email, upon the recipient opening an email, a query is launched to a “status registry” to determine if the sender of the email is currently logged in to the communication network, or if the sender is currently on the telephone, or currently using a cell phone, etc. This status information is then used by the recipient of the email to determine the communication medium used to send a reply to the email sender. For example, if the status information indicates that the message sender is currently logged in to the data network, the recipient can respond using “instant messaging” (considered, therefore, to be a more efficient type of response that merely responding with an email message).
    • 消息发送者状态监视器用于确定电子消息的发送者的通信状态。 在电子邮件的情况下,在收件人打开电子邮件时,将向“状态注册表”发送查询以确定电子邮件的发件人当前是否登录到通信网络,或者如果发件人当前在电话上, 或当前正在使用手机等。该状态信息然后由电子邮件的接收方使用以确定用于向电子邮件发送者发送回复的通信介质。 例如,如果状态信息指示消息发送者当前登录到数据网络,则接收方可以使用“即时消息”进行响应(因此,认为是仅仅响应于电子邮件消息的更有效的响应类型 )。
