摘要： A color laser engraving method engraves a document including a surface layer and one or more sub-layers. The sub-layer includes different colors and orientations of ink. A laser provides openings in the surface layer—to expose color ink in the sub-layer—to create color images and/or text. The different orientations of the colored inks include, e.g., circular, linear and overlapped groupings of ink. A sub-layer preferably includes many repeated instances of the grouping. A digital watermark is embedded in a document via transfer of the digital watermark in an embedded image or text, or by pre-embedding the document via altering intensity of colored inks on the original document card stock. A digital watermark can be carried via modulation with a pseudo-random noise sequence.

摘要： A digital watermark (DWM) content identifier is steganographically embedded in content. The DWM content identifier provides a link to a rights registry storing usage rights associated with the content. In some implementations the rights registry provides an association between the DWM content identifier and a digital rights management (DRM) content identifier. The DRM content identifier is used to find associated usage rights. The DWM content identifier can also be used to transfer content from a first DRM system to a second DRM system.

摘要： To stop illegal digital content distribution, IDs will be included in the content. However, current ideas of how to use the IDs are unacceptable. The automatic ID management process and apparatus increases the ease of access to protected content for the consumer, with desired content protection and minimal implementation costs. The process includes tracking the IDs of the previously accessed content of a rendering device, reviewing rules contained within the new content and rendering device, and restricting access if the new content does not meet the rules. For example, devices may be limited to accessing content with N different IDs over a specific time period, where the time period is influenced by the number of times content with a specific ID is accessed. The apparatus includes a logic processor and memory that implements the automatic ID management process.
摘要翻译：要停止非法数字内容发布，ID将被包含在内容中。然而，目前关于如何使用ID的想法是不可接受的。自动ID管理过程和设备增加了对消费者的受保护内容的访问的容易性，具有期望的内容保护和最小的实施成本。该过程包括跟踪先前访问的呈现设备的内容的ID，检查新内容和呈现设备中包含的规则，以及如果新内容不符合规则则限制访问。例如，设备可能被限制为在特定时间段内访问具有N个不同ID的内容，其中时间段受到访问特定ID的内容的次数的影响。该装置包括实现自动ID管理过程的逻辑处理器和存储器。

摘要： Apparatus 20 for inspecting photomasks 26 and the like by comparison of duplicate die patterns, including improved defect detection. Two-dimensional pixel representations of two die patterns are formed, with pixels having values or black or white or shades or grey, depending upon the features of the die patterns. Defects in the die patterns are found by a defect detector circuit 60 at points of non-agreement between the pixel representations. Two window matrices 130 and 134 of adjacent pixels are defined for corresponding areas of the two die patterns. The center matrix of each window matrix is defined as a comparison matrix 132 and 136. An error value is computed for subsets of the window matrix by summing the squares of the differences between each of the pixel values of each subset and the corresponding pixel values of the opposite comparison matrix. If there is no defect and any misalignment between the two representations minimal, at least one error value will be less than a threshold error value. If none of the error values are less than the threshold error value, a defect is assumed. The magnitude of the threshold error value is automatically varied according to the number and type of edges within the window matrices to compensate for edge quantization errors of less than one pixel.
摘要翻译：用于通过比较重复的芯片图案来检查光掩模26等的装置20，包括改进的缺陷检测。形成两个模具图案的二维像素表示，其中像素具有值或黑色或白色或阴影或灰色，这取决于模具图案的特征。缺陷检测器电路60在像素表示之间不一致的点处发现管芯图案中的缺陷。为两个模具图案的相应区域定义了相邻像素的两个窗口矩阵130和134。每个窗口矩阵的中心矩阵被定义为比较矩阵132和136。通过将每个子集的每个像素值之间的差的平方和相应的像素值相加来计算窗口矩阵的子集的误差值相反的比较矩阵。如果没有缺陷，并且两个表示之间的任何错位最小，则至少一个误差值将小于阈值误差值。如果没有错误值小于阈值误差值，则假定有缺陷。阈值误差值的大小根据窗口矩阵内的边缘的数量和类型自动变化，以补偿少于一个像素的边缘量化误差。

摘要： The present invention provides methods to provide or establish links, web addresses or web content with media (e.g., audio, videos or imagery). In one implementation, we provide a method comprising: upon receipt of a content identifier associated with media, initiating a time-limited auction for a right to associated a link or website with the content identifier; receiving additional bids for the right; and at a conclusion of a predetermined time associated with the time-limited auction, awarding the right to associate a link or website with the content identifier. In another implementation we provide a method including awarding a right to provide or host web content; and monitoring provided or hosted web content to ensure that non-advertising content is maintained at or above a predetermined level. In yet another implementation, we provide a method including: receiving a content identifier associated with media; determining whether web content exists that is associated with the content identifier; if the web content exists, providing the web content or a pointer to the web content; and if web content does not exist, allowing a user who provided the content identifier to provide or host web content.
