20080243851 | Multi-User Conditional Access to a Content Item - This invention relates to a system and method of providing conditional access to a data content item for a number of users, where the data content item is associated with a digital right that provides a user the right to access the data content item a predetermined number of times. The data content item is arranged in a number of subparts and the digital right is arranged in a number of sub-rights ( | 10-02-2008 |

20080263620 | Script Synchronization Using Fingerprints Determined From a Content Stream - A content stream ( | 10-23-2008 |
20080297654 | Script Synchronization By Watermarking - A watermark is embedded into a content stream including at least a clock value that relates to a time of embedding the clock value and an initial clock value representing the start of the content stream. A receiver extracts from the content stream the embedded watermark including the clock value. The receiver retrieves a portion of a script that corresponds to the content and the clock value. The script is utilized to produce one or more sensory effects that are output in an effects signal for an effects controller. The effect signal is produced in synchronization with the rendering of the content stream. In one embodiment, a content identifier may be embedded into the watermark. The receiver extracts from the watermark the content identifier and retrieves a script that corresponds to the content identifier. | 12-04-2008 |

20100049476 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATICALLY VERIFYING THE POSSIBILITY OF RENDERING A LIGHTING ATMOSPHERE FROM AN ABSTRACT DESCRIPTION - The invention relates to automatically verifying the possibility of rendering a lighting atmosphere from an abstract description, for example from a lighting atmosphere specified in XML (Extensible Markup Language) independent of a specific lighting infrastructure and of a room layout. A basic idea of the invention is to translate the possibilities of a lighting infrastructure into so called light element templates. A light element template contains an indication of the possibilities of the lighting infrastructure at a certain semantic location, for example in a shop or a home in which the lighting infrastructure is provided. For every type of light effect of a lighting infrastructure, a different light element template may be created. This allows to automatically verify the possibility of rendering a lighting atmosphere from an abstract description in a lighting infrastructure at an early stage of the lighting atmosphere design process. | 02-25-2010 |
20100090617 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR COMPOSING A LIGHTING ATMOSPHERE FROM AN ABSTRACT DESCRIPTION AND LIGHTING ATMOSPHERE COMPOSITION SYSTEM - The invention relates to composing a lighting atmosphere from an abstract description for example a lighting atmosphere specified in XML, wherein the lighting atmosphere is generated by several lighting devices, by automatically rendering the desired lighting atmosphere from the abstract description. The abstract description describes the type of light with certain lighting parameters desired at certain semantic locations at certain semantic times. This abstract atmosphere description is automatically transferred to a specific instance of a lighting system ( | 04-15-2010 |
