Patent number: 8074254Abstract: A data transmission device transmits a data broadcast using a narrow unused broadcasting band in a digital broadcast, and to record the data broadcast, which has been received, on a receiving side so that the receiving side can play back the data broadcast after a data stream is totally recorded. The transmission device generates a first data stream, which is recorded on a recording medium on a receiving side, and a second data stream including audio and video data, which is transmitted as a broadcasting program. The transmission device multiplexes the first and the second data streams and then transmits the multiplexed data stream. The transmission of the multiplexed data stream is controlled so that a transmission rate for the multiplexed data stream does not exceed the maximum transmission rate, and so that a transmission rate for the first data stream becomes lower than that for the second data stream.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2005Date of Patent: December 6, 2011Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Ryuichiro Hisamatsu, Takamichi Mitsuhashi, Tadashi Saito, Katsutoshi Sakao, Yasuhisa Nakajima, Hiroshige Okamoto

Patent number: 7802281Abstract: The invention makes it possible to draw lots for a present in real time in association with a broadcast program. A broadcasting station broadcasts information relating to lot for a present that is associated with a broadcast program by superimposing it on a video signal in vertical blanking intervals. The lot information is decoded by a decoder and viewed by a viewer on a TV receiver. When the viewer commands the decoder to enter the lot for the present, the decoder accesses a present call center and an automatic lots-drawing system draws lots. A drawing result is transmitted to the broadcasting station and announced during the broadcast of the program. A sponsor sends the present product to winner viewers based on winner data.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2000Date of Patent: September 21, 2010Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Nobutaka Tani, Masahiro Tada, Hirotaka Sugiyama, Tadashi Saito
