Abstract: Two or more digital images are combined. Three digital images are taken, Image blocks (Bi(x,y)) of a first image are matched to image blocks (B2(x,y)) of a second image, and for matching blocks a block difference (MAD12) is determined. If this block difference is below a threshold, the relevant image block of the first image is assigned to be an image block (Bg(x,y)) of the composite image. The remaining image blocks of the first image are matched to image blocks (B3 (x,y)) of the third image, and a further block difference (MAD13) is determined. If said further block difference is below a threshold, the relevant image block of the second image is assigned to be an image block of the composite image, otherwise the relevant image block of the first image is assigned to be an image block of the composite image.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are that restrict access to digital content to an authorized user on one or more systems using biometric watermarks. The disclosed biometric watermarking techniques allow an authorized user to be uniquely identified. Access to digital content is restricted to digital content in accordance with the present invention by embedding a biometric watermark, such as a biometric image, in the content. Thereafter, a user can only access the content if a biometric sample of the user matches the embedded biometric watermark. In one variation, the user can only access the content if the biometric sample is a live biometric sample. The embedded biometric watermark optionally includes information describing a system employed by the user to obtain the content. The user can optionally be permitted to access the content, without a biometric evaluation, if the content is on a system that has been previously authorized for the user using a biometric evaluation.

Abstract: A method of suggesting accompaniment tracks for synchronised rendering with a content data item includes obtaining data descriptive of the content data item. A database query based at least partly on the data descriptive of the content data item to identify auxiliary content items to a user is resolved. The database (14;28) includes records, each configured to associate descriptive data with an auxiliary content data item for forming an accompaniment track. Data representative of a selection of an auxiliary content data item is received in association with the query, and a database record for the selected auxiliary content data item is caused to be amended to reflect the selection in association with at least part of the descriptive data included in the query.
