  • Patent number: 11977816
    Abstract: A media marker mechanism may be used to send, to a cloud service, up-to-date context regarding playback of a media content stream on a user device. The cloud service may insert a media content item into a media content stream and/or combine media content items into a media content stream. The cloud service may implement the media marker mechanism to tag a content item with metadata that can be read by the user device. The user device can play the streaming media content and, when the tagged content item plays, read the metadata and send it to the cloud service. The cloud service can use the metadata to enrich the media content delivery by, for example, providing a companion image that the user device can display while paying the tagged content item, providing a link to make the companion image clickable, handling requests referring to the media content, etc.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a searchable encrypted data sharing method and system based on blockchain and homomorphic encryption, which protects security of sensitive data on the blockchain and realizes searchable and homomorphic calculation of data ciphertext. According to the present disclosure, a data owner encrypts the generated sensitive data and the keywords extracted according to the data with his own key, and then sends the encrypted transaction information to the cloud server. The cloud server verifies the identity of the data owner. If the verification succeeds, the uploaded ciphertext data is stored on a local server, and a ciphertext index, keyword ciphertext and related evidences of the data storage are uploaded to an alliance chain. The alliance chain node verifies the consistency of the uploaded transaction information, and if the verification succeeds, the transaction information is recorded.

  • Publication number: 20240118423
    Abstract: A projector sequentially generates light pulses to form a sparse grid array. The light pulses reflect off objects in an environment and are reflected towards a sensor array. The sensor array sequentially senses the reflected light pulses across pixels of the sensor array. A depth sensing system calculates depth information of objects in the environment based on the sequential nature of the pulse generation and the pulse sensing. The depth sensing system calculates depth information based on both the positional and temporal information of generated light pulses, and the positional and temporal information of sensed light pulses. The depth sensing system may generate a representation of the environment based on the depth information.
