摘要:
The invention relates to an interaction system and method for automatically generating a soundscape and lighting, which are adapted to an action of a viewer of displayed items, in order to attract the attention of the viewer to one or more of the displayed items, such as products presented in a shop or displayed in a shopping window. A basic idea of this invention is refining interactivity by triggering the generation of a lighting and soundscape upon detection of a certain viewer or user action and to adapt the generated lighting and soundscape to the viewer or user action. The invention provides in an embodiment an interaction system (10) comprising—at least one detector (12) being adapted to detect an action of at least one viewer (14) showing interest in displayed items (16) and—a controller (18) being adapted to control a light (20) and sound (22) system in response to information received from the at least one detector such that a soundscape and lighting adapted to the detected action is generated.

The present invention relates to light-based communication, and more particularly it relates to methods for configuration of at least one remote light-sensing device, to a central light-emitting unit and to a light-sensing device. According to the invention, spatial configuration of remote light-sensing devices (e.g. peripherals such as loudspeakers or light devices), will be achieved by transmission of embedded identifiers or configuration information in light emitted in a plurality of directions from a central light-emitting unit. With a different identifier or different configuration information for each direction of transmission, the directions can be distinguished from each other. The invention enables a user to place remote light-sensing devices in a desired spatial position and the central light-emitting unit will be able to determine location and spatial function, i.e. for example whether the peripheral is an audio device and/or a lighting device. As a result, the peripherals will be correctly configured without any user interaction required.

The electronic device of the invention comprises electronic circuitry which is operative to perform the method of the invention. The software of the invention enables a programmable device to perform the method of the invention.
摘要:
A method and system for transferring information from a base system (110) to a mobile system (120) based on a history of usage of information at the base system (110). Recently used files at the base system (110) are transferred to the mobile system (120), without express user interaction. Select files or directories may be marked as 'never download', but absent this designation, any file on the base system (110) is a potential candidate for downloading to a mobile system (120). Rules are established to prioritize (220) download candidates, as well as to determine how much (240) of the candidate information to download. In a preferred embodiment, the downloading occurs on a continuing basis (315-335), so that an explicit download command need not be executed. This downloading is configured to occur in a non-interfering manner with explicit download systems and methods (340-360). Security schemes may also be included to avoid security breaches associated with an automated download.

A device (100) for multimedia communication is equipped with control means (110). In response to a single activation (130) of the control means (110), the device (100) takes a sample (133) of some multimedia content (136), adds the sample (133) to a message (134) being processed (122) and optionally dispatches (135) the message (134) with the attached sample (133) to a recipient. This makes it easier for a receiver of the dispatched message (135) to identify and authenticate the author of the message (134). It is also easier, when processing the message (134), to express the mood of the author of the message (134) and to convey the current situation and surroundings of the author. When the dispatched message (135) contains a command for controlling a communication session, the fresh sample (133) can be reproduced at the recipient, elucidating the command. Examples include a hello or farewell greeting from the sender of the message (135). The dispatched message (135) may contain an invitation to a communication session, preventing the hassle of obtaining, storing and maintaining samples locally, for example, for caller identification and making it easier for the recipient to decide upon participation in the session.

A client system (200, 220) receives a content item. The user can mark the received content item as being of interest. In response to said marking, tracking means (204, 224) automatically provide identifying data for the marked content item to a remote server system (250). The server receives a portion of the content item from a client system (200, 220), processes the received portion to obtain an identifier for the content item, obtains further information on the content item using the identifier, and transmits the further information back to the client system (200, 220). The tracking means (204, 224) subsequently receive further information on the content item from the remote server system (250). An identifier for the content item can be used in an e-commerce system (160), for example by putting it on a shopping list (161) or to obtain a list of related items.
