AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF VIDEO CONTENT IN RESPONSE TO NETWORK INTERRUPTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17933791 titled 'AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF VIDEO CONTENT IN RESPONSE TO NETWORK INTERRUPTION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a device that can predictively generate replacement media data for a media bitstream when it determines that the next set of media data will not be received within a certain period of time.

  • The device includes a memory to store media data and processors to receive a first set of media data, predictively generate replacement media data, and present the media data.
  • The replacement media data is generated using at least a subset of the first set of media data.
  • This technology allows for seamless presentation of media data even when there are delays in receiving the next set of data.

Potential Applications

This technology could be used in streaming services, video conferencing platforms, and online gaming to ensure uninterrupted media playback.

Problems Solved

This technology solves the problem of buffering or interruptions in media playback due to delays in receiving data packets.

Benefits

The main benefit of this technology is a smoother and more seamless media viewing experience for users.

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications include streaming services, video conferencing platforms, and online gaming companies looking to enhance user experience.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be adaptive streaming technologies that adjust video quality based on available bandwidth to prevent buffering.

Unanswered Questions

How does the device determine the subset of media data to use for generating replacement media data?

The abstract does not provide specific details on how the device selects the subset of media data for predictive generation.

What is the impact of predictive generation on data usage and bandwidth consumption?

The abstract does not address how predictive generation of replacement media data may affect data usage or bandwidth consumption.


Original Abstract Submitted

An example device for presenting media data includes a memory configured to store media data; and one or more processors implemented in circuitry and configured to: receive a first set of media data of a media bitstream; in response to determining that a second set of media data of the media bitstream following the first set of media data will not be received within a period of time, predictively generate replacement media data for the second set of media data using at least a subset of the first set of media data; and present the first set of media data and the replacement media data.
