    Abstract: An audio playback system receives digitally watermarked audio programming and distributes it to audio speakers in a venue, enabling a variety of location and product dependent services to be delivered to mobile devices in the venue. Mobile devices sense audio from speakers and decode digital identifying information, including characteristics to distinguish audio sources. The mobile device communicates with a networked computer to provide the identifying information, which in turn, triggers an alert for output on the mobile device.

    Abstract: An illustrative implementation of the technology includes three primary components: a desktop application, a mobile phone application, and connections to retailer inventory and pricing APIs (e.g., for Walmart and/or Best Buy). The experience begins with the consumer going to an online retailer's website (e.g., Amazon) to search for a product. The desktop application automatically searches for product matches using the APIs of affiliated retailers. If matches and near-matches of the product are found, the product name, model, price, and local availability at affiliate locations is shown. With a mobile phone camera-scan of the product page, relevant information is transferred to the consumer's phone. From there, the consumer can interact with the options on the mobile phone to be directed to the nearby brick and mortar store of choice carrying that product at the price they want. Along the way, the retailer can present offers and additional product information directly to the consumer. A great variety of other technologies and arrangements are also detailed.

    Abstract translation: 该技术的说明性实现包括三个主要组件:桌面应用程序,移动电话应用程序以及与零售商库存和定价API(例如,用于沃尔玛和/或百思买)的连接。 经验开始于消费者去网络零售商网站(例如亚马逊)搜索产品。 桌面应用程序使用附属零售商的API自动搜索产品匹配。 如果找到产品的匹配和近似匹配,则会显示联属营销地点的产品名称,型号,价格以及本地可用性。 通过产品页面的手机相机扫描,相关信息将传输到消费者的手机。 从那里,消费者可以与移动电话上的选项进行交互,以便以他们想要的价格携带该产品的附近的实体店。 一路上,零售商可以直接向消费​​者提供优惠和额外的产品信息。 还详细介绍了各种其他技术和安排。

    Abstract: Methods and arrangements involving portable devices, such as smartphones and tablet computers, are disclosed. One particular arrangement concerns a software program that is launched following detection of audio content performed by a first musical artist. A phone can be provided with plural such software programs, tailored to respond to different types of detected content. Another aspect of the disclosed technology enables a creator of content to select software with which that creator's content should be rendered—assuring continuity between artistic intention and delivery. A great variety of other features and arrangements are also detailed.

    Abstract: The availability of high quality imagers on smartphones and other portable devices facilitates creation of a large, crowd-sourced, image reference library that depicts skin rashes and other dermatological conditions. Some of the images are uploaded with, or later annotated with, associated diagnoses or other information (e.g., “this rash went away when I stopped drinking milk”). A user uploads a new image of an unknown skin condition to the library. Image analysis techniques are employed to identify salient similarities between features of the uploaded image, and features of images in this reference library. Given the large dataset, statistically relevant correlations emerge that identify to the user certain diagnoses that may be considered, other diagnoses that may likely be ruled-out, and/or anecdotal information about similar skin conditions from other users. A great variety of other features and arrangements are also detailed.

    Abstract translation: 在智能手机和其他便携式设备上提供高质量的成像器有助于创建一个大型,大量来源的图像参考库,描述皮肤疹和其他皮肤病学条件。 一些图像与相关联的诊断或其他信息(例如,“当我停止喝牛奶时这种皮疹消失”)上传或稍后注释。 用户将未知皮肤状况的新图像上传到库。 图像分析技术用于识别上传图像的特征与本参考库中图像的特征之间的突出相似性。 鉴于大数据集,出现统计学上相关的相关性,以向用户识别可被考虑的某些诊断,可能被排除的其他诊断和/或来自其他用户的类似皮肤状况的轶事信息。 还详细介绍了各种各样的其他功能和安排。

    Abstract: The present technology concerns cell phones and similar devices, and their use in conjunction with media content (electronic and physical) and other systems (e.g., televisions, digital video recorders, and electronic program directories). Some aspects of the technology particularly concern “second screen” applications that sense a television program being watched by a user, and present menus of complementary content on the phone touchscreen from which the user can select. This complementary content can include other video content, associated web pages, opportunities to buy merchandise related to the program, etc. This complementary content can be identified by a provider of the television program, or can be identified otherwise (e.g., by crowd-sourcing). In some embodiments, the phone instructs a remote DVR to record content of interest for later viewing. The technology also provides features for making TV watching a social experience—involving remote friends. A great number of other arrangements and details are also disclosed.

    Abstract translation: 本技术涉及蜂窝电话和类似设备,以及它们与媒体内容(电子和物理)和其他系统(例如,电视机,数字录像机和电子节目目录)的结合。 该技术的一些方面特别涉及感测用户正在观看的电视节目的“第二屏幕”应用,并且在用户可以从其选择的电话触摸屏上呈现补充内容的菜单。 该补充内容可以包括其他视频内容,相关联的网页,购买与节目有关的商品的机会等。该补充内容可以由电视节目的提供者识别,或者可以另外标识(例如,通过采购 )。 在一些实施例中,电话指示远程DVR记录感兴趣的内容以供稍后观看。 该技术还提供使电视观看社交体验的功能,涉及远程朋友。 还披露了许多其他的安排和细节。
