Latest Patents

“Method and System for Managing Rights in Digital Information over a Network” describes a system for controlling access to digital content. A user obtains a tangible object containing an access code, which a reader sends to a server. The server authorizes access on the user’s registered devices and can disable access on other devices while the content is in use. When use ends, the device erases the content and notifies the server, allowing access to be re-enabled on other registered devices.

“Statistical Metering and Filtering of Content via Pixel-Based Metadata” concerns identifying and processing visual objects within image frames. Pixel data includes content and metadata fields, with metadata indicating whether a pixel belongs to an object in a particular category. This enables operations to target the pixels forming an individual object separately from other visual elements. The patent also describes corresponding methods and computer program products.
