20030135581, Jul 17, 2003

Filed:

Feb 12, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/073074

Inventors:

Jeffrey Phelan - Fairfax VA, US
Christopher Rawbone - London, GB

International Classification:

G06F015/16

US Classification:

709/217000, 709/246000

Abstract:

A method is provided for distributing information based on a geographic location determined for the information. The method receives a set of information, and a geographic location profile of a user. The method determines a geographic location based on the set of information. The method appends the geographic location to the set of information. The method then sends, through a network, the set of information to a machine to be used by the user depending on (i) the geographic location appended to the set of information and (ii) the geographic location profile of the user. The set of information includes information on at least one of news, business, entertainment, sports, and people. The geographic location profile of the user includes a geographic location of interest to the user.

International Classification:

H04N 1/40
H04L 9/32
G06F 21/00

US Classification:

358 328, 726 18

Abstract:

A batch of credentials printed on a credential medium having a pattern of lenses (e.g., lenticular or other pattern), as well as a system and method for producing such credentials. A library of encoders is used to encode pixel locations of a plurality of view sets comprising a number of individual image frames. Each view set is associated with a distinct region on a credential having distinct polyoptic properties (e.g., orientation, frequency, shape). Encoded images produced by the library of encoders are combined (e.g., by interlacing or other encoding pattern) into a single print-ready image that is aligned (e.g., registered) with lenses of the distinct polyoptic areas on a medium on which the credential is printed. Encoding may take the form of positioning, sizing, intensifying, coloring, masking, interlacing, interleaving, scrambling, mixing, transformation, alteration, translation of pixels, or a combination thereof.

Assignee:

I6 LLC - Kearneysville WV

International Classification:

G06F 15/00

US Classification:

358 19, 358 115

Abstract:

A batch of individualized credentials, e.g., ID tags, event tickets, etc., taken from a credential medium that includes respective polyoptic regions each carrying an encoded image set associated with respective individualized credentials, as well as a system and a method or producing the same. The production process uses credential data retrieved from a data store to create a plurality of individualized credentials on a single sheet medium. The dynamic production process enables inclusion of variable customer or patronage data, or individual object data (e.g., a serial number or object characteristic) on individual credentials using a template file that identifies a type of data to be retrieved from the data store and/or a specified image generated according to the value, nature, or type of the individualized data. Encoding of images may take the form of positioning, sizing, intensity, color, masking, interlacing, interleaving, scrambling, mixing, transformation, alteration, translation of pixels of images of multiple images.

Assignee:

I6 LLC - Kearneysville WV

International Classification:

G06F 15/00

US Classification:

358 114

Abstract:

A batch of printed credentials each including a polyoptic region including a respective image separately determined during production according to biographic or other information unique to the credential holder, as well as system and a method for producing such credentials. The respective images of the credentials in the batch may convey targeted marketing information. The production process uses credential data retrieved from a data store to print the plurality of customized credentials on a single medium where each credential on the single medium includes an image field based on dynamic data relationships of retrieved credential data.

Appl. No.:

10/072963

Inventors:

Jeffrey Phelan - Fairfax VA, US
Christopher Rawbone - Fairfax VA, US

International Classification:

G06F007/00

US Classification:

707/003000

Abstract:

A method is provided for distributing information based on a geographic location profile of a user. The method receives, through a network, a first set of information. The method assembles a geographic location profile of a user based on the first set of information. The method selects a second set of information based on the geographic location profile of the user. The method then sends, through the network, the second set of information to a machine to be used by the user. The geographic location profile of the user includes a geographic location of interest to the user. The geographic location profile of the user and the second set of information are stored on a machine-readable medium.

Inventors:

Jeffrey Phelan - Fairfax VA, US
Christopher Rawbone - London, GB

International Classification:

G06F007/00

US Classification:

707/003000

Abstract:

A method is provided for consuming information based on a geographic location profile of a user. The method receives a first set of information, based on a geographic location of interest to a user. The method sends, through a network, the first set of information to assemble a geographic location profile of the user. The method receives, through the network, a second set of information, based on the geographic location profile of the user. The method then communicates the second set of information to the user. The geographic location profile of the user is based on the first set of information.
