Application: Systems and methods for controlling content streams (Patent ID: US20230403419A1)
The patent filed by Sony Group Corp. describes a method for sending and outputting a content stream from a sender to a user electronic device. The method involves obtaining an input content stream with multiple tracks, determining attributes of the content stream, retrieving a framework defining the arrangement of tracks, preparing the output content stream based on the framework, and sending it to the user device via a wireless channel. The framework can include video, audio, and data tracks, with attributes like stream type, content genre, and number of tracks influencing the output. Additionally, the method allows for adjusting the content stream based on user device properties, such as bandwidth and processing power, and monitoring and updating the framework based on viewer engagement information.
Furthermore, the patent details a method for outputting the content stream on a user device, involving receiving the stream, applying a user framework defining settings or instructions to update the stream, and displaying the updated content. The user framework can specify the tracks to be output, maximum video feeds, spatial locations, and visual and audio parameters. The method also includes monitoring wireless communication quality and adjusting the user framework accordingly, allowing for modifications in composition, track number, resolution, and compression based on network conditions. Additionally, the patent covers a method for updating the framework based on viewer engagement information, including identifying tracks being output, user changes to the framework, and visual or audio adjustments made by users, with the possibility of detecting technical issues and providing notifications based on aggregated viewer data.
