  • Publication number: 20080010584
    Abstract: A content presentation apparatus comprises a receiver receiving content items, such as individual adverts. A filter processor filters the content items in response to a user profile thereby generating a subset of content items associated with the user. The subset of content items may e.g. be stored in a data storage. The content presentation apparatus furthermore comprises a receiver receiving a presentation content stream. The presentation content stream may e.g. be a television signal received from a conventional television broadcast transmitter. An output processor presents the presentation content stream to the user. A user context processor determines a current user context for the presentation and a selection processor selects at least one content item from the subset of content items in response to the current user context. The output processor then overlays the selected content item(s) on the presentation content stream to generate a user adapted output.

  • Publication number: 20070073694
    Abstract: Access rights to content items, such as personal photos etc, is determined in response to content metadata and requester metadata. A plurality of content items is stored in a content item store. An access right processor determines content metadata for the plurality of content items. When a request for a content item is determined, the access right processor determines requester metadata for the request. The requester metadata comprises data of a characteristic of a requester of the request. The access right processor then determines access rights in response to the content metadata and the requester metadata. If a positive access right is determined, the requested content item may be sent to the requester. The access right may further be determined in response to past usage data or context data for the content items. The invention may allow an improved and automated access right management.
