  • Publication number: 20240078226
    Abstract: A computer-readable storage medium may include executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, may be configured to establish a connection to a node of a distributed ledger network that maintains a distributed ledger. The processor may obtain a first dataset from a first user, perform pre-processing on the first dataset to obtain a first data asset based on the first dataset, and store the first data asset. The processor may calculate a first value for the first data asset and generate a first data proposition based on the first data asset. The processor may obtain acceptance data from a second user, which may include data indicating acceptance by the second user of the first data proposition. The processor may transmit a first distributed ledger record to the node of the distributed ledger network.

  • Patent number: 10279249
    Abstract: On a play field 20 set in real space, a target region 102 having the play field 20 as a bottom surface and having a predetermined height h is set virtually. A target region image that expresses a distance of the target region 102 from an imaging surface as a pixel value on an image plane is generated, and compared with a depth image corresponding to an actual captured image 100; thus, only images of blocks 3c and 3b inside the target region 102 are extracted as detection and tracking targets.

  • Patent number: 9737808
    Abstract: There is provided an information processing apparatus including an attribute management unit configured to manage a variable attribute value associated with each one or more characters existing in a real space, a detection unit configured to detect an interaction event between a first character and a real object by using an image captured by a camera that captures the real space, and a setting unit configured to set a rule for changing the attribute value of the first character depending on the interaction event. In a case where the detection unit has detected the interaction event, the attribute management unit changes the attribute value of the first character in accordance with the rule set by the setting unit.
