DYNAMICALLY GENERATED INTERACTIVE VIDEO CONTENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17736348 titled 'DYNAMICALLY GENERATED INTERACTIVE VIDEO CONTENT
Simplified Explanation
This patent application describes a system for generating interactive content at an edge node of an edge network.
- The system fetches cached altered frames from the edge network to deliver interactive content to users.
- If cached content is not available or different content is intended for delivery, the edge node identifies hotspots within video frames to insert interactive content.
- The edge node selects content based on user insights and preferences, as well as preferred interaction types and placements.
- Video creation services are used to alter the incoming video frames and insert selected content at hotspots.
- The interaction types are applied to present the content to the user.
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems, methods and/or computer program products for dynamically generating interactive content at an edge node of an edge network. For each set of video frames received, altered frames cached by the edge network can be fetched (when available) and reused to deliver interactive content to users. Where cached content is not present or distinctly different content from previously delivered content is intended for delivery to user(s), edge node identifies hotspots within video frames to insert interactive content, defining a timing and location for insertion, selects content consistent with user insights and/or preferences as well as an interaction types and placements known to be preferred by the user requesting the video frames. The edge node uses video creation services to alter the incoming video frames into altered video frames, inserts selected content at corresponding hotspots within the video and applies the interaction types for presenting the content to the user.
