  • Integrated intelligent overlay for media content streams
    Patent number: 10880614
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described for generating integrated intelligent content overlays for media content streams. A server computing device receives a video content stream from a video data source. The server extracts a corpus of machine-recognizable text from the video content stream, the corpus of machine-recognizable text corresponding to at least one of audio or closed captioning text associated with the video content stream. The server identifies one or more entity names contained in the corpus of machine-recognizable text. The server determines a set of content keywords associated with each of the identified entity names. The server generates a content overlay for the video content stream comprising one or more layers that include graphical content relating to at least one of the sets of content keywords. The server integrates the content overlay into the video content stream to generate a customized video content stream.
