A system, device, method, and computer program product are provided for allowing a user of the device to more easily annotate data files and/or images received by or created by the electronic device or system. For example, according to one embodiment, when a user takes a digital picture using a camera-equipped mobile phone, annotation data may be automatically presented to the user when a preview of the image is first displayed on the electronic display. The annotation data may be presented to the user as a list that semi-transparently overlays the preview of the image. The annotation list and/or the individual annotations that make up the list may be customizable. The annotation choices in the list may correspond to keys on the electronic device. Annotation data may be stored with the image or file as embedded metadata. The selected annotation data may also be used to create file folders in a memory device and/or store the image or file in a particular file folder in the memory device.

A device for rendering to multiple viewpoints of a stereoscopic display is provided. The device includes vertex shaders which receive vertices corresponding to primitives and process viewpoint dependent information. The device also includes a primitive replication unit which replicates primitives according to a number of viewpoints supported by the stereoscopic display. The primitive replication unit adds unique view tags to each of the primitives which identify the viewpoint that the respective primitive is destined for. Each replicated primitive is processed by a rasterizer and converted into pixels. The rasterizer adds a view tag to the rasterized pixels so that the pixels identify a respective primitive and identify a respective pixel buffer that the pixel is destined for. The pixels can then be processed by a pixel processing unit and written to a pixel buffer corresponding to a respective viewpoint. The pixels are subsequently output to the stereoscopic display.

Apparatus, method and a computer program product for providing a unified graphics pipeline for stereoscopic rendering

A transport mechanism for supporting the download of SVG over FLUTE or UDP. A RTP payload format is specified that enables live streaming and the streaming of rich media content. According to the present invention, rich media content is encapsulated in RTP packets based upon the payload format at the sender. With the present invention, an efficient framework is provided for satisfying several use cases or scenarios that involve rich media transmission.

A system, method and computer program product are provided for generating an image, such as a thumbnail, representation of a video sequence, where the video sequences includes a plurality of frames, at least some of which include an image of a scene that may include one or more objects. The method can include identifying a plurality of objects from the video sequence, and selecting at least some of the identified objects. In addition, the method can include extracting the selected objects from the frames of the video sequence including the respective objects, and combining the selected and extracted objects into an image representation of the video sequence.

A system and method for measuring the similarity between SVG documents. The present invention involves reducing the respective documents to their minimal logical representations and then analyzing the representations using tree isomorphism techniques. Applications can then use this comparison data to more efficiently perform actions such as content compression, content streaming and content searching.

System and method for measuring SVG document similarity

A method and apparatus is disclosed for sending structured data from a transmitter () to a receiver () through a network environment (). The method includes partitioning the structured data into at least one scene by inserting scene delimiter statements, where each scene includes at least one object. Within a scene the method includes opening a stream by inserting a first stream delimiter command, and within the stream, using at least one of an object addition, deletion and modification command. The open stream is closed by inserting a second stream delimiter command. The resulting structured data is transmitted through the network environment, such as through an RF link between a wireless system network operator () and a mobile station ().

Method and apparatus for extending structured content to support streaming

Apparatus, and an associated method, for facilitating communication of a vector graphic representation, or other content, pursuant to effectuation of a communication service. The content forms, for instance, an animated graphic, such as that used in a mobile communication application to effectuate an animated multi-media message. The vector graphic is encoded according to codewords that function to compress the data prior to its communication upon a radio link. And, once delivered to a receiving station, a decoder decodes the content into unencoded form. Codebooks are utilized and accessed by an encoder and decoder of a sending/receiving station pair.
