摘要： Embedded Media Markers (EMM) are optical-filter-like overlaid marks that can be printed on a part of a paper document that signify the existence of media associated with that part of the document. Users take a picture of an EMM-signified document patch using a cell phone camera, and the media associated with the EMM-signified document location is retrieved and displayed on the phone. Unlike bar codes, EMMs are nearly transparent and thus do not interfere with the document contents. Retrieval of media associated with an EMM is based on image local features of the captured EMM-signified document patch. A semi-automatically technique places an EMM at a location in a document, in such a way that the EMM encompasses sufficient identification features with minimal disturbance to the original document.

摘要翻译： 嵌入式媒体标记（EMM）是类似光学滤波器的重叠标记，可以打印在纸张文档的一部分上，表示存在与文档的该部分相关联的媒体。 用户使用手机摄像头拍摄EMM指定的文档补丁，并且将与EMM指定的文档位置相关联的媒体检索并显示在手机上。 与条形码不同，EMM几乎是透明的，因此不会干扰文档内容。 与EMM相关联的媒体的检索基于所捕获的EMM指示的文档补丁的图像本地特征。 半自动技术将EMM放置在文档中的位置，使得EMM包含足够的识别特征，同时对原始文档的干扰最小。

摘要： A digital document and authoring tool for generating a digital document comprising a multi-channel interface is provided that achieves improved user interaction. The digital document includes a plurality of content channels providing primary content continuously in a looping manner and at least one supplementary channel on a single page. The supplementary channel is configured to provide supplementary content upon the occurrence of an event during playback of the document. Channel content may include video, text, images, 3D content, web page content, audio and any other suitable content. In addition to media content, a channel may contain interactive regions in the form of hot spots, and interactive mapping regions, and other interactive features. The codument can utilize a stage layout having at least one channel to present media and a collection of properties, the collection of properties forming a program. Using an authoring tool, the media and programs can be imported from search media collection and management tools to the channels. The authoring tool utilizes intuitive interfaces to configure digital documents.

摘要： Method and device to update a data count in a data transfer operation in which a data counter generates an intermediate count value in accordance with a first amount of data to be transferred to a storage media; and an augmenter augments the intermediate count value by a specified count value in accordance with data to be transferred to the storage media in addition to the first amount of data, wherein the updated count value is loaded into the data counter such that the intermediate count value becomes equal to the updated count value during the data transfer operation.

摘要： Techniques are provided for determining relevant information from a document based on document structure. A document is selected and structural elements within the document having a dominance relationship are determined. A first location within the document is selected. The structural element surrounding the first location is determined and the surrounding and non-surrounding structural elements are characterized. Additional documents are associated with the first location in the surrounding structural element based on the surrounding structural element characterization and the non-surrounding structural element characterization. Techniques for dynamically determining annotations for images based on document structure are also provided.

摘要： A media collection and management tool for collecting, managing, and configuring media and media related properties. The tool configures media along with related media properties as a program, wherein a program is a collection of properties. Configurable media may include video, text, images, 3D content, web page content and audio. In addition to media content, a program may be configured to include interactive regions in the form of hot spots, interactive mapping regions, and other interactive features. The media collection and management tool utilizes intuitive interfaces to configure programs. The media and programs can be exported to other media components, such as a digital document authoring tool.
