CONTENT BANK FOR OBJECTS
First Claim
1. In a content bank system comprising at least one digital identity instance representative of at least one object, a method for manipulating object-related information regarding an object of the at least one object, the method comprising:
- determining, via a services registry associated with a digital identity instance corresponding to the object, whether a service associated with the object-related information exist;
when the service associated with the object-related information exists, accessing the object-related information via the service;
modifying the object-related information to provide modified object-related information; and
sending the modified object-related information to the service such that the modified object-related information is subsequently available via the content bank system.

Abstract
A content bank for objects hosts all information regarding an object and serves as a proxy for that object. The content bank comprises at least one instance of a digital identity corresponding the object. Object identity modules or services are available through the digital identity instance. Via the content bank system, the digital identity instance receives object-related information from a source and targeted to a specific service. Conversely, the digital identity instance also serves to determine when object-related information should be provided to a third party by a given service, or when object-related information needs to be manipulated by one or more services. A multi-mode interface is available for third parties to communicate with the digital identity instance. In this manner, third parties are not only able to access data regarding an object, but are actually able to communicate with an object via the digital identity instance.

4. A content bank system comprising at least one digital identity instance representative of at least one object device, the system comprising:
-
at least one processor; and memory, coupled to the at least one processor, comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to; determine, via a services registry associated with a digital identity instance corresponding to an object, whether a service associated with object-related information exist; access the object-related information via the service when the service associated with the object-related information exists; modify the object-related information to provide modified object-related information; and send the modified object-related information to the service such that the modified object-related information is subsequently available via the content bank system. - View Dependent Claims (5)
