Abstract: Method for transferring an entitlement from a first party to a second party in a communication network. The second party which is preferably a mobile communication connects to a mobile communication network and to a peer-to-peer network. The second party selects, over the peer-to-peer network, entitlement offered by the first party to purchase or to use a product or a service. The second party effects the entitlement, using the mobile communication terminal, to purchase or to use the product or the service.

Abstract: A system for remotely navigating a local-user manually operating a mobile device associated with an imaging device such as a camera, the system performing: communicating in real-time, from an imaging device associated with the first user, to a remote station, imaging data acquired by the imaging device, analyzing the imaging data, in the remote station, to provide actual direction of motion of the first user, acquiring, by the remote station, an indication of a required direction of motion of the first user, communicating the indication of a required direction of motion to a mobile device associated with the first user, and providing, by the mobile device to the first user, at least one humanly sensible cue, where the cue indicates a difference between the actual direction of motion of the first user and the indication of a required direction of motion.

Abstract: A system for remotely orienting a manually operated imaging device such as a camera performing steps such as capturing at least one image by an imaging device operated by a first user, communicating the image to a viewing station operated by a second user, receiving from the second user an indication of at least one point of interest associated with the image, communicating the point of interest to a computing device associated with the imaging device, converting the point of interest into a measure of required orientation of the imaging device, measuring current imaging device orientation to form current orientation, computing difference between the current orientation and the required orientation, converting the difference into a user-perceptive cue, providing the cue to the first user, repeating such steps until the difference reduces below a predefined threshold, and triggering image capture by the imaging device.

Abstract: A computerized system for facilitating eye-free use, e.g. by the blind, of an electronic device, the system comprising an interface layer including a hierarchy of operating modes presenting a portion of a hierarchy of possible choices, each portion comprising possible users' choices within the hierarchy; and an OS for accepting, via a touch screen, selected options generated by the user responsive to the sequence of possible choices respectively, and for activating electronic device functionalities accordingly. The hierarchy of possible choices includes sequences of n possible choices presented within sequences of n operating modes having n predetermined archetypical formats each having at least one fixed characteristic. The interface layer includes an orientation signal generator for generating orientation signals, sensible by the user and uniquely associated with the archetypical formats.

Abstract: A system for creating a panorama image in real time across a bandwidth-limited network by communicating low-resolution images and selected high-resolution image portions, and registering (stitching) the low-resolution images based on shared objects in the high-resolution image portions.

Abstract: A method and a system for identifying a network entity within a first communication network, using an entity identification data of the network entity in a second communication network. More particularly but not exclusively, identifying a network entity within a peer-to-peer communication network, using an entity identification data of the network entity in an underlying conventional communication network.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a computer program for remotely controlling image resolution of communicated imaging data executing actions such as: converting a high-resolution image to low-resolution and communicating the low-resolution image to a remote display device, displaying the low-resolution image on a display of the remote display device in real-time, receiving a user selection at the remote display device of a portion of the low-resolution image where the selected image portion is associated with a portion identifier, communicating the portion identifier to the device acquiring the image data in real-time, and communicating a high-resolution image associated with the selected image portion from the image-acquiring device to the remote display device, where the high-resolution image is a close-up (zoom-in) view of the low-resolution image including the selected image portion.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a computer program defining a plurality of ambient conditions, associating a set of measurable ambient values for each of the ambient conditions, providing rules for computing a user attention requirement value based on the measurable ambient values, measuring one or more of the ambient conditions, and computing user attention requirement including the measured ambient values, using the rules.

Abstract: A method, a device, and/or a computer program for adapting user interface of a mobile application to the available attention of the driver, including receiving an assessment of user attention available to operate a device and/or a software program, assessing user attention required to operate the device and/or the software program, and adapting the user-interface of the device and/or the software program according to the assessment of user available attention.

Abstract: A method for an application program executed by a network terminal device to select a preferred wireless communication technology from at least two different communication technologies provided concurrently by the same network operator, according to at least one communication parameter differentiating between the two communication technologies.

Abstract: Method for transferring an entitlement from a first party to a second party in a communication network. The second party which is preferably a mobile communication connects to a mobile communication network and to a peer-to-peer network. The second party selects, over the peer-to-peer network, entitlement offered by the first party to purchase or to use a product or a service. The second party effects the entitlement, using the mobile communication terminal, to purchase or to use the product or the service.

Abstract: A service includes registering a plurality of peer devices at a registration server and registering a peer server at the registration server. A first peer device of the plurality of peer devices communicates with a second peer device of the plurality of peer devices via the peer server. The peer server performs peer operations in a peer-to-peer network on behalf of the first peer device, and the peer server identifies itself to other devices as the first peer device.

Abstract: A system and a method enabling a mobile user-terminal to participate as a peer in a peer-to-peer network, the system including a mobile user-terminal and a network device, the network device including a peer-communication module operative to communicate as a peer in a peer-to-peer network, a terminal-communication module operative to communicate with a user-terminal device, and a proxy module operative to perform peer operations in the peer-to-peer network on behalf of the user-terminal device.
