CPC Class H04N

System, method and apparatuses directed to a paradigm of manuscript generation and manipulation combined with contemporaneous or simultaneous visualization of the text or other media being entered by the creator with emotion and mood of the characters being conveyed graphically through rendering. Through real time calculations, respective characters are graphically depicted speaking and interacting physically with other characters, pursuant to directive found in a manuscript text.

The disclosed subject matter provides a system, computer readable storage medium, and a method providing an audio and textual transcript of a communication. A conferencing services may receive audio or audio visual signals from a plurality of different devices that receive voice communications from participants in a communication, such as a chat or teleconference. The audio signals representing voice (speech) communications input into respective different devices by the participants. A translation services server may receive over a separate communication channel the audio signals for translation into a second language. As managed by the translation services server, the audio signals may be converted into textual data. The textual data may be translated into text of different languages based the language preferences of the end user devices in the teleconference. The translated text may be further translated into audio signals.

A method and device for calibrating a power model for a multi-state device. The device includes a processor and a computer readable medium containing instructions to instruct the processor to perform the method. The method includes receiving a device state log comprising a time-based representation of multi-state device states for a first period of time and a power trace comprising a time-based representation of power consumed by the multi-state device for the first period of time; eroding the device state log to reduce potential noise present at state transitions within the device state log, thereby producing an eroded device state log; determining energy consumption for each state transition in the eroded power state log; creating an updated power model for the multi-state device based upon the eroded power state log; and storing the updated power model in a non-transitory computer readable medium operably connected to the multi-state device.

A media server is disclosed, and comprises one or more non-transitory computer-readable memory devices upon which at least one set of instructions are stored, one or more processors, a request module, an authentication module, a filtering module, a publishing module, and a commercialization module. The request module is electronically coupled with the one or more non-transitory computer-readable memory devices for requesting data associated with media content from one or more remote electronic devices electronically coupled with the media server.

A driver monitoring apparatus includes: a driver monitoring camera configured to obtain an image of a user while adjusting an irradiation range of irradiated light; and a driver state sensor configured to request the driver monitoring camera to adjust the irradiation range depending on an operation mode. The driver monitoring apparatus is capable of improving reliability in monitoring a driver state by controlling an irradiation range and intensity of lighting depending on an operation mode and an external environment at the time of monitoring the driver state to irradiate light to only a region of interest.
