Abstract: The present invention discloses a new method for analyzing, modifying, and distributing digital images and video in a quick, efficient, practical and/or cost-effective way. The method of processing video can take a different region or object and replace the pixels in the frames of the scenes that comprise the features and characteristics of the identified region or object with a different set of pixels. The replacement or other customizations of the frames and scenes lead to a naturally integrated video or image which is indistinguishable by the human eye or other visual system. In one embodiment, this invention can be used to provide different advertising elements into an image or set of images for different viewers, or to enable a viewer to control elements within a video and add their own preference or other elements.

Abstract: A system and method for object and area detection and replacement in an image includes identifying an object or area in one or more sequential images that form a moving image sequence and replacing some or all of the identified object or areas with another image such that the image looks to be part of the original composition of the original image including lighting, shadows, placement, occlusion, orientation, position, and deformation.

Abstract: A system of delivering a customized video stream including a video image customization module in communication with a database storing video contents including live action video contents and customizable video elements, the video image customization module being configured to generate a customized video content of a first video content incorporating one or more of the customizable video elements associated with a selected customization option and to provide the customized video content as an output; and an e-commerce module configured to receive the selection of the first video content and the selected customization option and to determine a value associated with the customized video content based on the selection of the customization option.

Abstract: A system for batch forming a sheet of spring elements in three dimensions is described. A spring element sheet containing spring elements defined in two dimensions is arranged between two mating die press plates. A force is applied to the mating die press plates to form the two-dimensional spring contact elements into three dimensions. Alternatively, configurable die press plates are used to selectively form a two-dimensional spring element sheet into three-dimensional spring contacts.

Abstract: An elastic contact array circuitized substrate includes a circuitized substrate provided with circuit traces, and an array of three dimensional contact elements joined to the circuitized substrate and electrically coupled to the circuit traces. In one configuration, the array of three dimensional contacts are formed in a spring sheet material having anisotropic grains whose long direction is selected with respect to the longitudinal direction of elastic contact arms, in accordance with desired properties. In another configuration of the invention, the circuit traces are formed integrally within the spring sheet material.

Abstract: An improved damascene metal interconnect for use in a semiconductor integrated circuit. By using highly directional deposition of barrier and/or seed layers the texture of the damascene structure is improved. A first barrier metal layer is deposited in a standard deposition manner, and a second barrier metal is then applied in a highly directional manner. For example, tungsten, titanium and tantalum nitrides can be used as barrier metals. Copper or aluminum based metal is deposited over the second barrier metal, and is then polished by using a chemical mechanical polish. A passivation layer can then be deposited over the interconnect.
