Patent number: 10038939Abstract: A system and method for enabling a user to interact with a social networking structure for an internet website on a video device connected to a network enabled host device is provided. The present disclosure provides for accessing an internet site in response to a user input, the user input initiated while outputting a program to a display, retrieving content from the internet site based on at least one characteristic associated with the program, and outputting the retrieved content in an overlay or user interface on the display simultaneous with the program. The user interface provides the ability to access multiple profiles for determining whose content or message to display, and also includes a rotating carousel message display system, with a current message surrounded above and below by a previous message and a next message in the display queue in a different size or font.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2014Date of Patent: July 31, 2018Assignee: THOMSON LICENSINGInventors: Evan Michael Foote, Martin Vincent Davey

Patent number: 9088766Abstract: The marking of a video stream to impart a unique identifier commences by first identifying portions within the video stream readily susceptible to change in a visually imperceptible manner. Thereafter, a combination of visually imperceptible changes is applied to the identified portions at random intervals for randomly varying intervals to mark the video stream. Each change in the stream correlates a particular bit sequence so that a combination of different changes yields a string of bit sequences that can particularly identify the stream.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2011Date of Patent: July 21, 2015Inventor: Evan Michael Foote

Patent number: 9075983Abstract: A more secure CAPTCHA makes use of a distorted alphanumeric character string or strings that include one or more glyphs, pictures or symbols foreign to a target audience. Adding at least one of a glyph, picture or symbol makes recognition of the distorted string trivial since humans who would know which of the character set to expect, but a very difficult decision for a computer already struggling to decide where a character begins and ends, let alone identifying the character as being valid.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2011Date of Patent: July 7, 2015Assignee: Thomson LicensingInventor: Evan Michael Foote

Publication number: 20140337883Abstract: A method and apparatus for exchanging media content consumption characteristics in a network is described. The method includes receiving input data, the input data indicating that a first user in a user group has changed a content consumption characteristic, determining if the first user's changed content consumption characteristic is based a content consumption characteristic of a second user in the user group, and generating a message, the message including information indicating that the first user's changed content consumption characteristic is based on the content consumption characteristic of the second user in the user group. The apparatus includes a transceiver circuit that is coupled to the network and a controller circuit that receives input data from the first user, further determines if the first user's change is based on input data received through the transceiver circuit from the second user, and further generates the message that is provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2011Publication date: November 13, 2014Applicant: Thomson LicensingInventor: Evan Michael Foote

Patent number: 8789099Abstract: An electronic program guide includes a plurality of elements arrayed in a grid of rows and columns, with the rows corresponding to program sources and the columns corresponding to time intervals. Each element corresponds to a program played out from a particular program source during a corresponding time interval. The background of each element changes, such as by way of a color gradient or changing shape, to indicate one of a program beginning or ending. In this way, a viewer can ascertain the length of the program even if the element gets clipped upon updating the electronic program guide.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2011Date of Patent: July 22, 2014Assignee: Thomson LicensingInventor: Evan Michael Foote
