Abstract: A method for managing multimedia services includes transmitting a first request by a first device to a communication network for reserving a sub-channel of a communication channel for a multimedia service. The first device transmits the first request when the multimedia service is initiated at a second device. The first device communicates with the first communication network by way of the communication channel. The first device receives data associated with the multimedia service from the second device. The first device receives a first acknowledgement from the first communication network. The first acknowledgement indicates a reservation of the sub-channel for the multimedia service. The first device maps the multimedia service to the sub-channel based on the first acknowledgement. The first device transmits the data over the sub-channel, thereby managing a quality of service for the multimedia service.

Abstract: Systems and method for enhancing user experience by using augmented reality are presented. A system includes an image receiver configured to receive an image of a target object and a marker, and a processor including a marker identifier, a marker adjustment module, a virtual object retriever, and a renderer. The marker identifier is configured to identify a unique marker ID and real-time spatial attributes of the marker. The marker adjustment module is configured to apply a correcting algorithm to real-time spatial attributes of the marker to determine adjusted spatial attributes of the marker. The virtual object retriever is configured to retrieve a virtual object associated with the target object based on the unique marker ID. The renderer is configured to render the virtual object based on the adjusted spatial attributes of the marker. The adjusted spatial attributes compensate for any jitter experienced during rendering of the virtual object.

Abstract: A method for edge caching media content on a first device placed in a vehicle is provided. The first device receives a first request to commute between a plurality of locations from a commuter device of a commuter. In response to the first request, the first device extracts the media content including a first set of media content and a second set of media content from a database server based on a set of rules. The extracted media content is stored in a memory. The first device controls a playback of the media content from one of the stored first set of media content or the stored second set of media content on an output device of a second device in the vehicle. The playback is controlled based on a second request by the commuter in the vehicle.

Abstract: A method and a system for providing in-vehicle services to commuters are provided. A first device transmits online and offline applications to a second device. The online and offline applications are rendered on the second device by way of a first master application installed on the second device. The first device receives one of a first or second request from the second device indicating a selection of an online or offline application, respectively. The first device retrieves one of a first multimedia file from a first memory of the first device in response to the first request or a second multimedia file from a first server in response to the second request. The first device streams one of the first or second multimedia file to the second device.

Abstract: System and method for creating multiple wireless networks are provided. A user device transmits a first device identifier to a server. Based on the first device identifier, the server transmits a first wireless network identifier and a first password to a first communication device that creates a first wireless network, which is accessed by the user device.
