US Patent:
6788199, Sep 7, 2004
Filed:
Mar 12, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/097544
Inventors:
Timothy L. Crabtree - Yorba Linda CA
Reza P. Rassool - Stevenson Ranch CA
Michael F. Wells - Encinitas CA
Gregory J. DelMain - Maple Grove MN
Peter White - Poway CA
Paul McArthur - Chandler AZ
Assignee:
Eureka Technology Partners, LLC - Yorba Linda CA
International Classification:
G08B 108
US Classification:
34053913, 34053932, 3405681, 3406866, 3405734
Abstract:
A system and method for locating objects such as people, pets, and personal articles is described. A transceiver is attached to the person, animal, or item to be tracked and a handheld locator device is employed to transmit a locator signal containing an address code to the transceiver. Upon receipt of a signal, the transceiver compares the address code contained in the locator signal with an address code stored in the transceiver. If the two codes are same, the transceiver sends a return signal back to the locator device. The locator device uses this return signal to determine the distance and/or direction of the transceiver from the users location. The system allows a user to select from a multiple number of items to locate and allows multiple users to search for different articles within the same general area without interference.

Video Processing Methods For Improving Visual Acuity And/Or Perceived Image Resolution

View page
US Patent:
6920358, Jul 19, 2005
Filed:
May 7, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/851268
Inventors:
Robert J. Greenberg - Los Angeles CA, US
Richard P. Williamson - Sherman Oaks CA, US
Joseph H. Schulman - Santa Clarita CA, US
Reza P. Rassool - Stevenson Ranch CA, US
Lee J. Mandell - West Hills CA, US
Abraham N. Seidman - Beverly Hills CA, US
Assignee:
Second Sight Medical Products, Inc. - Sylmar CA
International Classification:
A61N001/08
US Classification:
607 54
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for improving visual acuity when providing a visual image from a “high” resolution input device to a “low” resolution output device. The described invention is of particular use when the output device is an array of electrodes as part of a retinal prosthesis used to restore vision to a visually-impaired patient. In that various limitations may, within the foreseeable future, limit the density of such an electrode array (and thus the resolution of the output image), the present invention teaches techniques to assign processed pixel subsets of a higher resolution image to a single electrode. By varying the pixel subsets, e. g. , by jittering, and/or altering the processing criteria, the perceived visual acuity may be further improved. Alternatively and additionally, such processing may be further extended to drive neighboring electrodes in combination to thus stimulate virtual electrode sites and thus further enhance visual acuity.

US Patent:
7043473, May 9, 2006
Filed:
Nov 20, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/988824
Inventors:
Reza Rassool - Stevenson Ranch CA, US
William P. Worzel - Milan MI, US
Brian Baker - Bellevue WA, US
Assignee:
Widevine Technologies, Inc. - Seattle WA
International Classification:
G06F 7/00
US Classification:
707 6, 707 10, 7071041, 713179
Abstract:
A method for identifying a media file transmitted over a network includes creating a plurality of known media file identifiers, each for a respective one of a plurality of known media files, using an identifier generating algorithm, storing the known media file identifiers in a database, creating a media file identifier for an unknown media file with the identifier generating algorithm and comparing the media file identifier for the unknown media file with known media file identifiers in order to produce an identification of the unknown media file.

Method And System For End To End Securing Of Content For Video On Demand

US Patent:
7328345, Feb 5, 2008
Filed:
Jan 29, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/354920
Inventors:
Glenn A. Morten - Bellevue WA, US
Reza P. Rassool - Stevenson Ranch CA, US
Tom E. Claeys - Clyde Hill WA, US
Brian Andrew Baker - Mercer Island WA, US
Assignee:
Widevine Technologies, Inc. - Seattle WA
International Classification:
H04L 9/00
H04K 1/00
H94L 9/00
H04N 7/167
US Classification:
713176, 380278, 380201, 705 51, 713179
Abstract:
A system and method for providing end-to-end security of content over a heterogeneous distribution chain is provided. A content owner provides content to an aggregator that receives the content and processes the content. The processing may involve decrypting the content and associating at least one of a unique fingerprint and a watermark to the decrypted content. The unique fingerprint and a watermark to the decrypted content provide identifying characteristics to the content. Additional content-based fingerprints may be used to monitor quality of consumer experience for Video and Audio. The content may be sent in a decrypted state to a client or in an encrypted state. When the content is encrypted the aggregator wraps and encrypts the content with a signature such that an end-to-end flow of the content may be determined. Application Level encryption is used to provide network/distribution medium transparency as well as persistent encryption. When the content is transmitted from a consumer to another consumer the transmitting consumer loses rights to the content.

Securely Relaying Content Using Key Chains

View page
US Patent:
7349886, Mar 25, 2008
Filed:
Mar 23, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/388241
Inventors:
Glenn A. Morten - Bellevue WA, US
Reza P. Rassool - Stevenson Ranch CA, US
Assignee:
Widevine Technologies, Inc. - Seattle WA
International Classification:
G06Q 99/00
US Classification:
705 51, 705 50
Abstract:
A system, apparatus, and method are directed towards generating chains of encrypted decryption keys for content in a highly distributed environment. In one embodiment, the key chain may be provided within an Entitlement Control Message (ECM). An access key that enables decryption of a current link within the chain of decryption keys may be provided to a downstream recipient using an out-of-band mechanism. Alternatively, the access key may be provided through an in-band mechanism, such as through the use of Entitlement Management Message (EMM), or the like. In one embodiment, the access key within the EMM may be further encrypted by another encryption key that may be unique to the downstream recipient.

Transitioning To Secure Ip Communications For Encoding, Encapsulating, And Encrypting Data

US Patent:
7817608, Oct 19, 2010
Filed:
Sep 6, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/470574
Inventors:
Reza P. Rassool - Stevenson Ranch CA, US
Glenn A. Morten - Bellevue WA, US
Brian A. Baker - Mercer Island WA, US
Assignee:
Widevine Technologies, Inc. - Seattle WA
International Classification:
H04Q 7/24
US Classification:
370338, 375240
Abstract:
An apparatus, system, and method is directed to transcoding broadcast content, such as in a DVB, ATSC, and MPEG based network, to secure content suitable for an Internet Protocol (IP) based network. In one embodiment, a single multifunctional convergence appliance is employed to enable such transcoding actions as encryption, encoding, and/or encapsulation. For example, in one embodiment, an MPEG transport stream associated with the broadcast content may be transcoded to an IP-based transport stream. In addition, the transport stream may be decrypted, transrated to another rate, and re-encrypted using a different control word for re-encrypting, but a same service key to encrypt the different control word. The system is also enabled to transcode content formatted for the IP-based network to a content format suitable for the broadcast network.
