Patent number: 9589454Abstract: An approach for broadcasting an alarm to a plurality of devices associated with an alarm group. The alarm is associated with a plurality of devices in an alarm group. The approach includes receiving a request. The request designates a plurality of devices as the alarm group. The approach includes determining an implementation of the alarm for the alarm group based on the request. The approach also includes broadcasting the alarm to the plurality of devices in the alarm group based on the implementation.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 2014Date of Patent: March 7, 2017Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Aravind Vaidhyanathan, Venkatesan M.

Patent number: 9445148Abstract: Techniques described herein may use a computing device, such as a smartphone or tablet computer, that is attached to a local area network, as a storage device or supplemental storage device for a set-top box (STB) that is also attached to the local area network. In one implementation, the STB may stream, to the computing device, video content corresponding to a television program that is being viewed by a user of the STB. In response to a command such as a rewind or unpause operation, the STB may request the video content from the computing device; receiving the requested video content from the computing device; and satisfying the unpause or rewind operation, based on the received video content.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2014Date of Patent: September 13, 2016Assignee: VERIZON PATENT AND LICENSING INC.Inventors: Aravind Vaidhyanathan, Vijayan Radhakrishnan, Sivasubramanian Parthasarathy, Venkatesan Sriraman, Deepak Natarajan, Kavitha PanneerSelvam, JanardhanReddy Tripuram

Patent number: 9369756Abstract: A device receives a request for a digital video recorder (DVR) to record digital contents. The device identifies the digital contents using metadata included in the request, such as a channel and a time associated with the digital contents, to access additional metadata from an electronic program guide (EPG), such as an identifier. The device uses the additional metadata from the EPG to determine whether the digital contents are available via video on demand (VOD). For example, the device may compare the identifier and/or other metadata for the digital contents to metadata associated with VOD content, such as a VOD catalog. The device may selectively prevent the DVR from recording the digital contents if the digital contents are available via VOD.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2014Date of Patent: June 14, 2016Assignee: VERIZON PATENT AND LICENSING INC.Inventors: Deepak Natarajan, Aravind Vaidhyanathan, Vijayan Radhakrishnan, JanardhanReddy Tripuram, Venkatesan M.

Publication number: 20160088359Abstract: A set-top box (STB) causes a display device to present a notification during a time period. The notification identifies digital contents, such as television show, available for access via the STB. If no response to notification is received during the time period or the display device or STB is inactive, a notification message is sent to an associated user device. The notification message may be generated based on metadata extracted from electronic programming guide (EPG) data, and the notification message may include an indication that the digital contents are available for access via the STB. The notification message may also identify an available action related to the digital contents. For example, the action may relate to recording the digital contents or requesting another notification or notification message related to another broadcast of the digital contents. Response data requesting execution of the action may be received from the user device.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2014Publication date: March 24, 2016Inventors: Aravind Vaidhyanathan, Vijayan Radhakrishnan, JanardhanReddy Tripuram, Venkatesan M.

Publication number: 20160026736Abstract: An approach for implementing an asset exchange platform for identifying assets associated with a user and providing recommendations to exchange the assets. The approach includes identifying one or more digital assets associated with a user. The approach also includes processing metadata associated with the one or more digital assets using an exchange rule to determine one or more other digital assets, a parameter for initiating an exchange of the one or more digital assets for the one or more other digital assets, or a combination thereof. Further, the approach includes presenting the one or more other digital assets, the parameter, or a combination thereof to the user as an exchange recommendation.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 23, 2014Publication date: January 28, 2016Inventors: Deepak NATARAJAN, JanardhanReddy TRIPURAM, Aravind VAIDHYANATHAN, Vijayan RADHAKRISHNAN, Venkatesan M.
