System reactions to the detection of embedded watermarks in a digital host content
InactiveUS20060239503A1Increase payload capacityIncreased payload capacityUser identity/authority verificationSpeech analysisSystem requirementsSystem recovery
Methods for adapting the operation of a system in response to the detection of embedded watermarks from a digital host content are provided. A digital host content is received and examined for the presence of watermarks. In response to the detection of embedded watermarks and in accordance with the value, type, density or spacing of the detected watermarks, one or more system reactions may take place. These reactions include conditionally allowing the system to resume its normal operation, prohibiting the system from resuming its normal operation, degrading the quality of the digital host content or changing the security status of the digital host content. In response to the extraction of weak watermarks that do not meet the desired system requirements, the extraction operation may be modified or extended to enable the detection of strong watermarks.

An interactive play device, method and apparatus, is disclosed which includes means to generate a plurality of interactions, entry control means, means to store responses to interactions and control means to select the next interaction based on memorized responses. One object of this invention is to provide a new class of interactive play devices which is founded on personalizing a play device so that its current functionality is based on past interactions with a player rather than providing an identical operation or a randomly activated function each time the device is turned "on." The invention also provides a plurality of toy devices which operate in a plurality of states that mimic human behavior. A preferred embodiment discloses an interactive doll device which generates interactions that require responses from the player. The responses are memorized by the doll device and are used to select the next interaction. An alternate embodiment discloses an interactive toy car device which uses the same concept of memorizing responses to interactions to generate the next interaction. Both the doll and car play devices are controlled by a generic flow diagram disclosed in the specification.

A relaying method performed by a half duplex relay for a telecommunications system. The method includes a reception stage of receiving codewords transmitted by a source, the successive codewords corresponding to B blocks, the first of which can be decoded independently of the other blocks. This stage includes a decoding step of estimating a message from each source based on received codewords, the message being associated with the codewords transmitted by the source. The relay performs an error detection and decision-taking step on messages that are decoded without error. The relay encodes a signal and forwards it to the destination, wherein the signal is representative of only those messages that are decoded without error, such that the relay passes from non-selective reception to selective reception after receiving B1 blocks and switches from the reception stage to the encoding and forwarding stage under control of the error detection and decision stage.

The invention provides an amplifier for providing adaptive operation of an auditory prosthesis. The amplifier receives an input signal and produces an output signal, and comprises a gain control. Estimates of the current noise floor value of the input signal are obtained, and in response to a change in the current estimated noise floor value, the gain control alters the amount of gain applied to the input signal. Further, in response to the change in the current estimated noise floor value, the gain control alters a gain compression ratio of the amplifier across the dynamic range of the amplifier. The present invention allows for adaptive operation of the amplifier responsive to varying noise floor levels, while maintaining desired gain characteristics of the amplifier across a range of input signal levels.
