Abstract
Embodiments provide methods and devices for providing object information associated with a media program. Embodiments include identifying an object of interest in an image of a frame of the media program; inserting an indicator into the image of the frame to identify the object of interest; generating a video clip associated with the identified object based on a portion of the media program; constructing an information page containing information regarding the object of interest, wherein the information page comprises a window for displaying the video clip; and transmitting the information page, including the video clip, to the user device.
Claims16
A method for providing object information associated with a media program, comprising:
- identifying an object of interest in an image of a frame of the media program, the media program comprising a plurality of scenes;
- inserting an indicator into the image of the frame to identify the object of interest;
- generating a video clip of the media program that is associated with the object of interest, the video clip comprising one or more pieces of the plurality of scenes of the media program;
- constructing an information page containing information regarding the object of interest, wherein the information page comprises a window for displaying the video clip;
- transmitting the media program to a first user device causing the first user device to display the media program on the first user device;
- sending a uniform resource locator (URL) of the information page to a second user device;
- receiving a request for the information page in connection with the first user device displaying the media program;
- and
- transmitting the information page, including the video clip, to the second user device causing the second user device to replay the video clip of the media program on the second user device, wherein the video clip being replayed on the second user device is focusing on one or more scenes of the object of interest in the media program, and the video clip comprises a most current time stamp of the media program displaying on the first user device, and wherein the most current time stamp records a start-time and an end-time of displaying of the object of interest in the media program on the first user device.
A server for providing object information associated with a media program, comprising:
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the memory, wherein the one or more processors execute the instructions to:
- identify an object of interest in an image of a frame of the media program, the media program comprising a plurality of scenes;
- insert an indicator into the image of the frame to identify the object of interest;
- generate a video clip of the media program that is associated with the object of interest based on a portion of the media program, the video clip comprising one or more pieces of the plurality of scenes of the media program;
- construct an information page containing information regarding the object of interest, wherein the information page comprises a window for displaying the video clip;
- transmit the media program to a first user device causing the first user device to display the media program on the first user device;
- send a uniform resource locator (URL) of the information page to a second user device;
- receive a request for the information page in connection with the first user device displaying the media program;
- and
- transmit the information page, including the video clip, to the second user device causing the second user device to replay the video clip of the media program on the second user device, wherein the video clip being replayed on the second user device is focusing on one or more scenes of the object of interest in the media program, and the video clip comprises a most current time stamp of the media program displaying on the first user device, and wherein the most current time stamp records a start-time and an end-time of displaying of the object of interest in the media program on the first user device.
A method for providing object information associated with a media program, comprising:
- obtaining a uniform resource locator (URL) of an information page associated with an object of interest, wherein the object of interest is presented in a frame of the media program and the frame comprises an indicator identifying the object of interest, wherein the media program comprises a plurality of scenes;
- requesting the information page at the URL;
- receiving the information page comprising a window for displaying a video clip of the media program, wherein the video clip comprises one or more pieces of the plurality of scenes of the media program, and wherein the video clip is associated with the object of interest based on a portion of the media program;
- and
- displaying the information page and replaying the video clip of the media program in the window on a mobile device while the media program is being displayed on another device, wherein the video clip being replayed on the mobile device is focusing on one or more scenes of the object of interest in the media program, and the video clip comprises a most current time stamp of the media program displaying on the another device, and wherein the most current time stamp records a start-time and an end-time of displaying of the object of interest in the media program on the another device.
A mobile device for providing object information associated with a media program, comprising:
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor executes the instructions to:
- obtain a uniform resource locator (URL) of an information page associated with an object of interest, wherein the object of interest is presented in a frame of the media program and the frame comprises an indicator identifying the object of interest, wherein the media program comprises a plurality of scenes;
- request the information page at the URL;
- receive the information page comprising a window for displaying a video clip of the media program, wherein the video clip comprises one or more pieces of the plurality of scenes of the media program, and wherein the video clip is associated with the object of interest based on a portion of the media program;
- and
- display the information page and replay the video clip of the media program in the window on the mobile device while the media program is being displayed on another device, wherein the video clip being replayed on the mobile device is focusing on one or more scenes of the object of interest in the media program, and the video clip comprises a most current time stamp of the media program displaying on the another device, and wherein the most current time stamp records a start-time and an end-time of displaying of the object of interest in the media program on the another device.
