Abstract: The present System For Highlighting A Dynamic Personalized Object Placed In A Multi-Media Program functions to manage the delivery of Object (product) placements in a Multi-Media Program. The multi-media object highlighting system controls the retrieval of Object data that comprises a product representation and the integration of this Object data into a corresponding selected one of the predetermined Multi-Media Object Locations which are components of the Multi-Media Program. In addition, the multi-media object highlighting system produces a representation of the object that highlights the object in the scenes in which it appears. The highlighting can be any human sensible characteristic, such as, but not limited to: flashing, changes in brightness, movement, change in representation, and the like. The highlighting can also include the use of an anomaly, such as a color representation in a black and white multi-media program or vice versa, or out-of-context object.

Abstract: The present multi-media object management system controls the retrieval of Object Data that comprises an object representation (such as a product) and the integration of this Object Data into a corresponding selected one of the predetermined Multi-Media Object Locations which are components of the Multi-Media Program. This enables advertisers to precisely control product placement on a customized basis thereby to dynamically modify the content of the Multi-Media Program as it is delivered to the individual recipient. There are a number of methods by which the Multi-Media Object Locations can be brokered, with International, National, Regional, Local, and Personal markets being defined, as well as exclusive rights and conditional rights, all available to the purchaser by means of auction, predefined contracts, or other financial arrangements.

Abstract: The multi-media object management system functions to manage the delivery of product placements in a Multi-Media Program. The multi-media object management system controls the creation of predetermined Multi-Media Object Locations and associated Object Management Data which are components of the Multi-Media Program. This enables advertisers to precisely control product placement on a customized basis to thereby dynamically modify the content of the Multi-Media Program on a centralized basis, a regional basis, or as it is delivered to the individual recipient. The multi-media object management system produces object-ready content for distribution on removable media or via a network.

Abstract: The communiqué system for cellular communication networks operates with existing cellular communication networks to provide communiqué communication services to subscribers. The communiqué can be unidirectional (broadcast) or bidirectional (interactive) in nature and the extent of the communiqué can be network-wide broadcast or narrowcast, where one or more cells and/or cell sectors are grouped to cover a predetermined geographic area or demographic population or subscriber interest group to transmit information to subscribers who populate the target audience for the narrowcast transmissions.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing a communique constituting program content concurrently delivered to a plurality of subscribers is described. Subscriber information for each of a plurality of subscribers is stored. The subscribers whose wireless subscriber devices are active in a cell are identified. Data that identifies a plurality of subscribers is automatically generated. One or more cells are selected to provide a communique to subscribers who are members of at least one community of subscribers and who are served by the selected plurality of cells, independent of the presence of subscribers who are authorized to receive said communique and who are served by other cells of the cellular communication network. Data constituting said communique from a selected program source is routed, concurrently, to authorized wireless subscriber devices.

Abstract: The wireless subscriber device that is operable in a communique system for cellular communication networks operates with existing cellular communication networks to provide communique communication services to subscribers. The Communique can be unidirectional (broadcast) or bi-directional (interactive) in nature and the extent of the Communique can be network-wide broadcast or narrowcast, where cells and/or cell sectors are grouped to cover a predetermined geographic area or demographic population or subscriber interest group to transmit information to subscribers who populate the target audience for the narrowcast transmissions.

Abstract: The communiqué system for combined cellular and wireline communication networks operates with existing cellular and wireline communication networks to provide communiqué communication services to subscribers. The Communiqué can be unidirectional (broadcast) or bi-directional (interactive) in nature and the extent of the Communiqué can be network-wide broadcast or narrowcast, where cells and/or cell sectors are grouped to cover a predetermined geographic area or demographic population or subscriber interest group to transmit information to subscribers who populate the target audience for the narrowcast transmissions. The grouping of cells to form the communiqué coverage area for the narrowcast transmissions can be hierarchical in nature and/or be composed of combinations of in-building wireless coverage areas, standard terrestrial cells, non-terrestrial cells, wireline-based cells, orchestrated in a hierarchical manner.

Abstract: The communiqué system for private virtual narrowcasts operates with existing cellular communication networks to provide private virtual narrowcast communication services, that are initiated by a narrowcast host, to subscribers. The Communiqué can be unidirectional (broadcast) or bi-directional (interactive) in nature and the extent of the Communiqué is narrowcast, where cells and/or cell sectors are grouped to cover a predetermined geographic area or demographic population or subscriber interest group to transmit information to a private group of subscribers who populate the target audience for the narrowcast transmissions. The grouping of cells to form the communiqué coverage area for the narrowcast transmissions need not be contiguous and can comprise dynamic combinations of contiguous and non-contiguous cells as well as combinations of in-building wireless coverage areas, standard terrestrial cells, non-terrestrial cells, orchestrated in a hierarchical manner.
