Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Systems, methods and/or techniques for detection of user-initiated events in relation to a media device are described, for example utilizing a content recognition system. A method may be executed in a media device that is operable to play video content. The method may include receiving user interaction with the media device and the user interaction causes initiation of a feature that affects video content that plays on the media device. The method may include receiving one or more interactive events from a content recognition system in response to the user interaction. The method may comprise executing the one or more interactive events to affect video content that is playing on the media device, and display one or more overlay windows corresponding to the affected video content. One or more video fingerprints that correspond to the affected video content may be communicated to the content recognition system.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method, comprising: in a media device that is operable to play video content, wherein: the media device comprises an automatic content recognition (ACR) module that communicates with an ACR system that is external to the media device, and the ACR system supports different video fingerprint technologies from multiple vendors, wherein: the ACR system assigns same interactive event identifiers to different sets of video and audio fingerprints that are gener…
