20090031431 | DYNAMIC MEDIA ZONES SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Systems and methods are described for applying digital rights management techniques to manage zones in electronic content. In one embodiment, zones are defined in a piece of electronic content, and a license is associated with the electronic content that indicates how the zones are to be accessed or otherwise used. A digital rights management engine governs access to or other use of the zoned content in accordance with the license. | 01-29-2009 |
20090037732 | TETHERED DEVICE SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Systems and methods are described for applying digital rights management techniques to tethered devices. In one embodiment, a host device is operable to translate a relatively sophisticated license into a simpler format for use on a relatively low-capability device. In another embodiment, a method of using extended SCSI commands to communicate over a USB connection is provided. | 02-05-2009 |
20110314271 | Secure Processing Systems and Methods - This disclosure relates to systems and methods for enabling the use of secret digital or electronic information without exposing the sensitive information to unsecured applications. In certain embodiments, the methods may include invoking, by a client application executing in an open processing domain, a secure abstraction layer configured to interface with secret data protected by a secure processing domain. Secure operations may be securely performed on the secret data by the secure abstraction layer in the secure processing domain based on an invocation from a client application running in the open processing domain. | 12-22-2011 |
20130216071 | AUDIO REPRODUCTION SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Systems and method are disclosed for facilitating efficient calibration of filters for correcting room and/or speaker-based distortion and/or binaural imbalances in audio reproduction, and/or for producing three-dimensional sound in stereo system environments. According to some embodiments, using a portable device such as a smartphone or tablet, a user can calibrate speakers by initiating playback of a test signal, detecting playback of the test signal with the portable device's microphone, and repeating this process for a number of speakers and/or device positions (e.g., next to each of the user's ears). A comparison can be made between the test signal and the detected signal, and this can be used to more precisely calibrate rendering of future signals by the speakers. | 08-22-2013 |
20150067335 | TETHERED DEVICE SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Systems and methods are described for applying digital rights management techniques to tethered devices. In one embodiment, a host device is operable to translate a relatively sophisticated license into a simpler format for use on a relatively low-capability device. In another embodiment, a method of using extended SCSI commands to communicate over a USB connection is provided. | 03-05-2015 |

20140129599 | PERSONALIZED DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS - This disclosure relates to systems and methods for managing data associated with a user using a personalized cloud storage platform operating as a centralized repository for user data generated from a variety of sources and/or user devices. By centralizing the storage and/or management of personal data that would conventionally be confined between multiple information silos, embodiments of the systems and methods disclosed herein may improve the ability of a user to control their personal data, facilitate utilization of their personal data in a variety of ways not offered by services associated with the silos, and/or allow a user to centrally manage their personal data. Further embodiments disclosed herein allow a user to define one or more policies or other rules associated with personal data stored in their personal cloud. | 05-08-2014 |
20140372763 | DYNAMIC MEDIA ZONES SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Systems and methods are described for applying digital rights management techniques to manage zones in electronic content. In one embodiment, zones are defined in a piece of electronic content, and a license is associated with the electronic content that indicates how the zones are to be accessed or otherwise used. A digital rights management engine governs access to or other use of the zoned content in accordance with the license. | 12-18-2014 |
20150067882 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ENCODING AND PROTECTING DATA USING DIGITAL SIGNATURE AND WATERMARKING TECHNIQUES - Systems and methods are provided for determining a presence of a watermark in electronic data. In certain embodiments, a plurality of keys is generated, and a plurality of payloads are retrieved from electronic data using the keys. A statistical indicia of randomness is generated based on the payloads, and the presence of a watermark is determined when the indicia is below a threshold. | 03-05-2015 |
