Abstract: An audio description system includes a memory and a processor. The memory stores source media comprising frames positioned within the source media according to a time index. The processor is configured to generate, using an image-to-text model, a textual description of each frame; identify intervals within the time index, each interval encompassing one or more positions of one or more frames; identify placement periods within the time index, each placement period being temporally proximal to an interval; generate a summary description based on at least one textual description of at least one frame positioned within a selected interval temporally proximal to a placement period; and associate the summary description with the placement period.

Abstract: An advanced display system controller is described for use in automotive vehicles. The controller has electronic circuitry to allow it to be programmed to display monochrome or color graphics and text on an all-points-addressable display device such as a CRT or an Electro-Luminescent (EL) Flat panel. The display resolution and scan rates may be programmed differently depending on the display type and size. The vehicle operator controls the display system via a reconfigurable switch system (RSS), such as an Infrared Touch Panel or Mylar Touch Switch Matrix mounted over the face of the display. In addition, external discrete switches may also be attached to the controller. The controller includes a master microprocessor and a slave microprocessor with preferred partitioning of functions and communicates with other parts of the vehicle via two serial data communication links, a Random Access bus and a Poll/Response bus.
