Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for facilitating navigation toward a region of interest in an extended scene of video content include determining a timeline including information regarding at least one region of interest in the video content and displaying, in a portion of the video content currently being displayed, a visual indicator indicating a direction in which to move in the video content to cause the display of the at least one region of interest. In one embodiment of the present principles a timeline is attached to the content and carries information evolving over time about the region(s) of interest. A renderer processes the timeline and provides navigation information to a user using available means such as a graphical representation or haptic information, or a combination of several means.

Abstract: An augmented reality (AR) interactive system and method is provided. In one embodiment the systems comprises a user interface configured to receive user input, a processor configured to manage user input data, and a display in processing communication with one another and said user interface via said processor. The processor is operative to perform the following functions: initiate communication with at least one third party computer to start a user session; and display graphical images and textual information in overlying registration using the display so that the images and textual information appear as part of a plurality of computer keys of a computer keyboard, wherein the processor is configured to display computer keys in random order each time the keys are displayed.
