Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to an ornamental system, apparatus and method that is dynamically modifiable. Embodiments of the ornament system comprise a processor, at least one ornamental member and a data controller. The processor is a computer or similar device that stores data for transmission. The ornamental member is configured to receive and display data stored in a database. Embodiments of the present invention can be coupled to other ornamental systems across a wide area network, wherein users can share data files for display.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An entertainment controller method, including: configuring a controller with a controller network interface coupled to a network, with a first relative ornament location information of a first ornamental device in a programming interface displayable on a mobile phone, where the first ornamental device has a first processor coupled to a first speaker, a first microphone, and a first network controller; configuring the controller with a second relative ornamental location information of a second ornamental device in the programming interface, where the second ornamental device has a second processor coupled to a second speaker, a second microphone, and a second network controller; identifying content suppliers to the controller in the programming interface; assigning performance characteristics in the interface to the first ornamental device and second ornamental device; and participating in a performance associated in response to the performance characteristics with the first ornamental device and a second ornamental device. 2. The entertainment controller method of claim 1 , including selecting a performance associated with the performance characteristics in response to audio received at the controller network interface from the first microphone. 3. The entertainment controller method of claim 2 , including activating the performance to be streamed to the first ornamental device and the second ornamental device in response to the performance characteristics. 4. The entertainment controller method of claim 1 , including identifying at the controller an identity of a voice received at the controller network interface from the first microphone; and selecting a performance in response to the voice that was identified that contains the identity of the voice. 5. The entertainment controller method of claim 1 , including communicating from the first ornamental device to the second ornamental device, where the first network controller and the second network controller are coupled by a wireless network.
