RESOURCE-SAVING SYSTEMS AND METHODS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18413272 titled 'RESOURCE-SAVING SYSTEMS AND METHODS

The patent application describes methods and systems for saving resources when outputting a media asset such as a video by splitting it into two portions of different importance levels.

  • The first portion of the media asset is displayed with a higher quality using a first set of output parameters.
  • The second portion of the media asset, which is of lower importance, is displayed with a lower quality using a second set of output parameters.
  • The second set of output parameters includes lower resolution, bit rate, frame rate, and display size compared to the first set of output parameters.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in video streaming services to optimize resource usage and improve user experience. - It can be applied in video editing software to efficiently handle large media files.

Problems Solved: - Efficient resource management when outputting media assets. - Providing a balance between quality and resource consumption.

Benefits: - Reduced resource usage. - Improved performance and user experience. - Cost-effective solutions for media asset output.

Commercial Applications: - Video streaming platforms. - Video editing software companies. - Media production studios.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology impact the overall user experience of media consumption? 2. What are the potential cost savings for companies implementing this technology?

Frequently Updated Research: - Stay updated on advancements in video compression algorithms and technologies to further enhance resource-saving capabilities.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods and systems for saving resources when outputting a media asset such as a video are provided. The media asset is split into a first portion with a first importance and a second portion with the second importance. The first portion is displayed with a first set of output parameters (e.g., resolution, bit rate, frame rate, display size) and the second portion is displayed with a second set of output parameters that correspond to a lower quality than the first set of output parameters (e.g., a lower resolution, a lower bit rate, a lower frame rate, a lower display size).
