Patent number: 9047593Abstract: The claimed subject matter relates to various architectures that can, inter alia, facilitate creation of a synch file as well as facilitate interpretation of the synch file. Both creation and interpretation can be accomplished in conjunction with an original media asset. The synch file can include transformation commands that can operate on a presentation of the asset rather than upon the asset itself. Accordingly, what is actually perceived by a content consumer during a presentation of the asset need not be exactly what the asset creator fixed in a tangible medium. Rather, the content consumer can observe a derivative media presentation based upon interpretation of the synch file.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2012Date of Patent: June 2, 2015Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: David Sebastien Alles, James E. Allard, Nicholas Robert Baker, Adam Tipton Berns, Steven Drucker, James C. Finger, Todd Eric Holmdahl, David Hendler Sloo, Curtis G. Wong, Dawson Yee

Patent number: 8027518Abstract: The claimed subject matter relates to an architecture that can obtain biometric data from a user as the user interacts with a device. Based upon the obtained biometric data, the architecture can determine an identity of the user and automatically apply settings associated with that particular user to the device. The settings can relate to a physical configuration of the device (or aspects, features, and/or peripherals of the device), as well as to a data set employed by the device (or components of the device). As such, a user of the device can benefit from enhanced efficiency, utility, and/or convenience.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2007Date of Patent: September 27, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Nicholas R.

Publication number: 20090163272Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that facilitate a connected gaming experience for multiple players utilizing multiple disparate devices. A game service affords playing a game over a communication framework which can include wired and wireless local area and wide area networks, as well as access to a global positioning system. The game service allows users to play a game in multiple devices, seamlessly switching devices at desired times and locations. In addition, the game service affords community-driven development of a game, as well as customization, through the communication framework. The latter also facilitates exchange of various contents among players, and between a player and the game service: (a) news, (b) advertising, (c) alerts, and (d) participant's real-world positioning information. Real-world embedding into a game is facilitated by the game service in combination with global tracking information received through the communication framework.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2007Publication date: June 25, 2009Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: Nicholas Robert Baker, Dawson Yee, James E.

Publication number: 20090150939Abstract: The claimed subject matter relates to an architecture that can facilitate a more robust experience in connection with content consumption. The architecture can span several mediums by way of distinct content channels in order to deliver contextual content and/or media in which a significant event has occurred. Contextual content or other media can be provided simultaneously with the active media, can be synchronized with the active media, and/or can be output to a single or multiple media devices. In addition, media can be appropriated paused while other media is provided and media segments can be recorded for imminent display, such as media segments that include significant events.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2007Publication date: June 11, 2009Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: Steven Drucker, James E.

Publication number: 20090132326Abstract: The claimed subject matter relates to an architecture that can utilize special metadata to facilitate an improved advertising model in connection with media content delivery. The architecture can monitor a media player device and can launch a metadata interface on the media player device upon detection that a pause feature has been activated. Accordingly, while the media player device is paused (and therefore not presenting the media in a normal fashion), a user can interact with the metadata interface. The metadata interface can provide, e.g., advertisements or additional information related to elements or objects that exist in the media. In addition, the metadata interface can launch suitable applications in accordance with the special metadata. Additionally, the architecture can embed metadata in the media, which can be done in accordance with an advertiser bidding model.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2007Publication date: May 21, 2009Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: James M. Alkove, James E. Allard, David Sebastien Alles, Adam Tipton Berns, Steven Drucker, Julio Estrada, Todd Eric Holmdahl, Oliver R. Roup, David Hendler Sloo, Curtis G. Wong, Dawson Yee
