  • Patent number: 8285819
    Abstract: A subscription-based system provides transcribed audio information to one or more mobile devices. Some techniques feature a system for providing subscription services for currently-generated (e.g., not stored) information (e.g., caption information, transcribed audio) for one or more mobile devices for a live/current audio event. There can be a communication network for communicating to the one or more mobile devices, a transcriber configured for transcribing the event to generate information (e.g., caption information, transcribed audio). Caption data includes transcribed data and control code data. The system includes a subscription gateway configured for live/current transfer of the transcribed data to the one or more mobile devices. The subscription gateway is configured to provide access for the transcribed data to the one or more mobile devices.

  • Patent number: 8014765
    Abstract: A system for providing caption information for one or more mobile devices includes a communication network, and one or more mobile devices connected to the communication network. The one or more mobile devices can include a cellular device, a personal digital assistant, or a wireless device. The system includes a captioning device to present caption data on a display, and a transcription device to transcribe data. The transcription device provides near real time delivery of the data transcription. The system uses the communication network to send text from the caption data to at least one of the mobile devices, while the system sends the caption data to one or more captioning devices simultaneously.

  • Patent number: 7421477
    Abstract: A subscription-based system for providing caption information for one or more mobile devices includes a communication network. Some techniques employed feature a system for providing subscription services for near-real time caption information for one or more mobile devices. The system includes a communication network for communicating to the one or more mobile devices, a transcriber connected with the communication network and configured for transcribing an event to generate caption data. The caption data includes transcribed data and control code data. The system includes a subscription gateway configured for near real time transfer of the transcribed data over the communication network to the one or more mobile devices. The subscription gateway is configured to provide access for the transcribed data to the one or more mobile devices.
