Abstract: A metadata editor processes the metadata track of a multimedia composition to synchronize the metadata track with a video track and identify any errors in the metadata track internally or relative to the video track. The metadata editor effectively divides the metadata track into segments, displays breaks on the video and metadata tracks to show the metadata segments relative to the video track, characterizes each segment as being either erroneous (e.g., warranting attention by the user) or consistent (e.g., not warranting attention by the user), and highlights erroneous metadata segments, e.g., by displaying erroneous metadata segments using a different color, pattern, or other visual indicator than consistent metadata segments. The metadata editor provides various mechanisms to allow the user to manipulate the metadata track in order to correct erroneous metadata segments.

Abstract: An emotion function chain may be generated from an email thread and displayed to a user in one or more windows on a computer display of a computer system. An email content analyzer may extract emotion indicators from the body of an email within the email thread. Using the emotion indicators, an attitude factor for an email may be determined. The attitude factors determined from each email within the email thread may be pictorially depicted in the emotion function chain. In response to a user interaction with a pictorial depiction of an attitude factor within the emotion function chain, a second window may generated to display the body of the email used to calculate the attitude factor interacted with.

Abstract: An athletic parameter measurement device worn by an athlete during an athletic activity session includes a housing which attaches to the athlete, a display, a processor associated with the display, and an athletic parameter measurement sensor. During the athletic activity, the device detects, using the sensor, a vertical jump height of the athlete, and displays, during the performance of the athletic activity session, a representation of the vertical jump height on the display.

Abstract: A component for controlling playback of digital media objects using a single control input receives, from a server, a plurality of feature vectors, each feature vector representing one of a plurality of media objects, and receives one or more skip requests from the single control input. In response to a first skip request, the component selects a feature vector from among the plurality of feature vectors and instructs a media object playback device to playback a media object represented by the selected feature vector. In response to a second or successive skip request, the component selects another feature vector from among the plurality of feature vectors that is a distance away from the previously selected feature vector and instructs the media object playback device to playback another media object represented by the selected other feature vector.

Abstract: A method for producing an overall image of surroundings of a vehicle using images that are each actively recorded by one of a plurality of cameras mounted on the vehicle. The method includes determining a position of each predefined image section that occurs in an image of the plurality of images that at least partly forms an image of a vehicle body and/or of a vehicle wheel, using an image mask associated with the respective image to mask a portion of each of the plurality of images, in which a predefined image section occurs; determining each image mask on the basis of the position determined for each predefined image section located in the associated image in such a way that it masks each predefined image section that occurs in the associated image, and producing the overall image by assembling the plurality of images.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for transmitting images captured by first and second image sensors are disclosed. In some embodiments, each image sensor generates a plurality of pixel values each represented by a plurality of data bits having a pixel bit length. In some embodiments, a method involves combining pixel values generated by each of the first and second image sensors into a single image data stream, transforming the single image data stream into a plurality of data words having a word bit length, and encoding the data by selection of one of a plurality of symbols having an encoded bit length that is at least one bit longer than the word bit length to reduce a running disparity. The method also involves serializing the symbols to generate and transmit a DC balanced serial bitstream.

Abstract: Video from multiple locations in a venue, in which multiple individuals are engaged in activities, such as athletic performances or non-sporting activities, is stored and edited, using sensor data from participants and tag data from spectators, to create individualized video programs of athletic performances of individuals. Each camera provides a video feed that is continuously stored. Each video feed is stored in a sequence of data files in computer storage, which data files are created in regular time intervals. Each file is accessible using an identifier of the camera and a time interval. Similarly, data from sensors and tagging devices are continuously received and stored in a database. The database stores, for each sensor, an identifier of each individual detected in the proximity of the sensor and the time at which the individual was detected. Each sensor is associated with one or more cameras. Tag data is similarly stored from tagging devices manipulated by spectators.
