SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS MEDIA SEGMENT IDENTIFICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240259613 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS MEDIA SEGMENT IDENTIFICATION
The invention described in the abstract provides a method to identify unknown media programming using the audio component of the programming. This system extracts audio information from media received by consumer electronic devices and sends it to a remote server for identification against a database of known audio segment information. The system can identify unknown media programming in real-time, allowing for time-sensitive services such as interactive television applications and television advertisement substitution.
- Extracts audio information from media programming
- Sends audio information to a remote server for identification
- Compares audio information against a database of known audio segments
- Identifies unknown media programming in real-time
- Enables time-sensitive services such as interactive television applications and advertisement substitution
Potential applications of this technology include interactive television applications, contextually related information services, television advertisement substitution, and tracking media consumption.
This technology solves the problem of identifying unknown media programming quickly and accurately, allowing for the delivery of time-sensitive services and personalized content.
The benefits of this technology include real-time identification of media programming, enhanced user experience through interactive applications, targeted advertisement delivery, and improved tracking of media consumption.
Commercial Applications: The technology can be used in smart TVs, TV set-top boxes, streaming services, and advertising platforms to enhance user experience, deliver targeted advertisements, and track media consumption effectively.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the system extract and process audio information from media programming? 2. What are the potential privacy implications of tracking media consumption using this technology?
Original Abstract Submitted
this invention provides a means to identify unknown media programming using the audio component of said programming. the invention extracts audio information from the media received by consumer electronic devices such as smart tvs and tv set-top boxes then conveys said information to a remote server means which will in turn identify said audio information of unknown identity by way of testing against a database of known audio segment information. the system identifies unknown media programming in real-time such that time-sensitive services may be offered such as interactive television applications providing contextually related information or television advertisement substitution. other uses include tracking media consumption among many other services.
