Service Substitution Techniques

View page
US Patent:
20090187938, Jul 23, 2009
Filed:
Jan 18, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/016307
Inventors:
David L. de Heer - Woodside CA, US
Majd Bakar - San Jose CA, US
Francis W. Tsui - Belmont CA, US
Victor S. Lee - Cupertino CA, US
Sivaprasad Lakshmi Radhakrishnan - Sunnyvale CA, US
Assignee:
MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA
International Classification:
H04N 7/10
US Classification:
725 34
Abstract:
Service substitution techniques are described. In an implementation, a substitution table is derived that specifies one or more service substitutions to be performed for content and that specifies particular geographic locations to perform at least one service substitution. One or more communications are formed to be streamed over a packet-switched network to a client that is to perform the at least one service substitution. The one or more communications include the substitution table and the content that corresponds to the at least one service substitution.

Measurement And Reporting Of Set Top Box Inserted Ad Impressions

View page
US Patent:
20100251278, Sep 30, 2010
Filed:
Mar 24, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/409767
Inventors:
Gaurav Agarwal - San Francisco CA, US
David de Heer - Woodside CA, US
Majd Bakar - San Jose CA, US
Francis Tsui - Belmont CA, US
Victor Lee - Cupertino CA, US
Pradip Fatehpuria - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA
International Classification:
H04H 60/33
US Classification:
725 9, 725 32
Abstract:
Methods are disclosed for measuring ad impressions and receiving feedback on local ad assets inserted into a video transport stream at the set top box level. Each set top box stores the number of times an ad asset is inserted into an ad avail, along with a variety of other information relating to the playback of the ad asset. This measurement data is aggregated and sent to the ad decision service. In order to balance bandwidth usage, each set top box may report its measurement data to the ad decision service at a different time interval that is randomly selected. As it is desirable to receive the data in a timely manner, the random intervals may be confined so that all measurement data is reported within a predefined time period, such as for example over a twelve hour period.

US Patent:
20100251289, Sep 30, 2010
Filed:
Mar 24, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/409744
Inventors:
Gaurav Agarwal - San Francisco CA, US
David de Heer - Woodside CA, US
Majd Bakar - San Jose CA, US
Francis Tsui - Belmont CA, US
Victor Lee - Cupertino CA, US
Pradip Fatehpuria - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA
International Classification:
H04N 7/025
US Classification:
725 34
Abstract:
Methods are disclosed for inserting local ad assets into a video transport stream at the set top box level. The media advertising platform of the present system works in conjunction with existing platforms, such as an advertising decision service and a media platform. The present system further includes a client resident on end user set top boxes. In general, the present system operates by pre-caching advertisements to a set top box or boxes within a household or elsewhere. Each set top box is also assigned to particular groups, based on characteristics of the user of that set top box. Group membership information is also sent to the set top box and stored. The present system sends the set top box a decision matrix based on group memberships to allow the set top box to select and insert an ad asset targeted to the specific set top box.

US Patent:
20120159338, Jun 21, 2012
Filed:
Dec 20, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/973692
Inventors:
Peter Mountanos - Redwood City CA, US
Majd Bakar - San Jose CA, US
Francis Tsui - Belmont CA, US
David Sloo - Menlo Park CA, US
Assignee:
MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 3/048
H04N 5/445
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
715738, 725 39
Abstract:
Embodiments are disclosed that relate to navigation in a media consumption environment. One embodiment provides, on a portable networked device, a method comprising receiving media metadata from a server via a network, wherein the media metadata corresponds to media content available for viewing. The method further comprises displaying on a display of the portable networked device a user interface presenting the media metadata, receiving a user input via the user interface selecting a media item, and in response, sending a request for the media item to a media rendering device.

US Patent:
20200252571, Aug 6, 2020
Filed:
Feb 24, 2020
Appl. No.:
16/799036
Inventors:
- Mountain View CA, US
Francis Tsui - Belmont CA, US
John Affaki - San Jose CA, US
Byungchul Kim - Mountain View CA, US
International Classification:
H04N 5/44
H04N 21/858
H04N 21/422
H04N 21/436

H04L 29/06
H04L 29/08
H04N 21/41
H04N 21/81
H04N 21/462
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and media for presenting media content are provided. In some implementations, a system for presenting media content is provided, the system comprising: a hardware processor that is programmed to: establish a connection with a media playback device; respond to a discovery request from a computing device presenting a media content item; establish a persistent communication channel with the computing device over a network in response to a request from the computing device to establish the persistent communication channel; receive identifying information of the media content item being presented by the computing device and identifying information of a source of the media content item being presented by the computing device; request the media content item from the identified source of the media content item as a stream of media content; and cause the media content item to be presented using the media playback device.

Method And Apparatus For Internet Service Availability Notification

US Patent:
20180124740, May 3, 2018
Filed:
Oct 31, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/339707
Inventors:
- Mountain View CA, US
Hassan Sipra - San Jose CA, US
Alan Jones - Sunnyvale CA, US
Francis Tsui - Belmont CA, US
Bok Knun Randolph Chung - Los Altos CA, US
International Classification:
H04W 68/02
H04W 72/04
H04W 24/08
Abstract:
Internet Connectivity Services provided by mobile wireless stations deployed in drones, balloons, airplanes etc. may be intermittent and in some cases event-driven, such as in response to emergency and natural disasters. In such deployments, end users of wireless devices may not know that Internet connectivity has become available. Even when the wireless device, such as a smartphone, is able to autonomously attach to the network when Internet connectivity becomes available, end users may not realize that their devices have re-connected to the network. The proposed systems and methods relate to providing Internet service availability notification to end users. The proposed systems and methods collect data related to Internet service availability notifications for analytics.
