Managing Redistribution Of Digital Media Assets - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240249324 titled 'Managing Redistribution Of Digital Media Assets

The abstract describes a system where a computing device can create a customized digital media asset to replace an original one, while tracking ownership through a distributed ledger.

  • The computing device obtains an original digital media asset and its ownership information from a server.
  • It generates a customized digital media asset to replace the original one.
  • The distributed ledger is modified to reflect the customization and ownership changes.
  • The customized digital media asset is published to the server for distribution.
  • Ownership changes are recorded in the distributed ledger when the asset is transferred to a new owner.

Potential Applications: - Digital media content creation and distribution platforms. - Intellectual property management systems. - Blockchain-based ownership tracking systems.

Problems Solved: - Ensuring authenticity and ownership of digital media assets. - Facilitating customization and distribution of digital content. - Simplifying the process of transferring ownership of digital assets.

Benefits: - Enhanced security and transparency in digital media asset ownership. - Streamlined customization and distribution processes. - Improved tracking and management of intellectual property rights.

Commercial Applications: Title: "Blockchain-Based Digital Media Asset Customization and Ownership Tracking System" This technology can be used in digital media platforms, content creation tools, and intellectual property management services to enhance security, transparency, and efficiency in managing digital assets.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this system ensure the security and authenticity of digital media assets? - The system utilizes a distributed ledger to track ownership and modifications, ensuring transparency and security. 2. What are the potential implications of this technology on the digital media industry? - This technology could revolutionize how digital media assets are created, customized, and distributed, leading to more efficient and secure processes.


Original Abstract Submitted

in some implementations, a computing device may obtain an original digital media asset published to a server device along with a distributed ledger that tracks ownership of the original digital media asset. the computing device may generate a customized digital media asset that replaces the original digital media asset, and modify the distributed ledger to indicate the customization or modification of the original digital media asset and identify the customized digital media asset and the ownership thereof. the computing device may publish the customized digital media asset to a server device for distribution. upon transfer of ownership of the customized digital media asset to a new owner, the distributed ledger may be modified to indicate the new ownership of the customized digital media asset.
