LATENCY MEASUREMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240214283 titled 'LATENCY MEASUREMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD

Simplified Explanation

A client latency module triggers events in response to input events, which are then queued to be sent to a content provider system. The module identifies trigger event responses from a stream received from the content provider system, allowing for the measurement of stream latency using a single timer.

  • The client latency module generates trigger events in response to input events.
  • Trigger events are queued for transmission to a content provider system.
  • Trigger event responses are identified from the stream received from the content provider system.
  • Stream latency is determined by comparing trigger event times with trigger event response times.
  • A single timer is used to measure the latency of the streaming solution.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various streaming services, online gaming platforms, video conferencing systems, and real-time communication applications.

Problems Solved

This technology addresses the need for accurately measuring latency in streaming solutions to ensure optimal performance and user experience.

Benefits

The use of a single timer for measuring stream latency simplifies the process and improves the efficiency of latency measurement in streaming solutions.

Commercial Applications

  • Streaming services
  • Online gaming platforms
  • Video conferencing systems
  • Real-time communication applications

Questions about the Technology

How does the client latency module improve the efficiency of measuring stream latency?

The client latency module streamlines the process by using a single timer to measure latency, simplifying the measurement process and improving accuracy.

What are the potential applications of this technology beyond streaming services?

This technology can also be utilized in online gaming platforms, video conferencing systems, and real-time communication applications to enhance user experience and performance.


Original Abstract Submitted

a client latency module generates a trigger event in response to an input event. the trigger event is inserted into an event queue to be sent to a content provider system. a stream including a plurality of images, audio data, or both, is received from the content provider system. a trigger event response generated in response to the trigger event is identified from the stream. a stream latency is determined by comparing a time corresponding to the trigger event with a time corresponding to the trigger event response. as a result, a single timer is used to measure latency of a streaming solution.
