Abstract

The present invention provides systems and methods for dynamic content management, the method including generating content associated with an object, dynamically adjusting the content associated with the object according to a user profile to form a user-defined object-based content package, displaying at least one captured image of the identified object on the device, and uploading the user-defined object-based content package associated with the identified object to the device simultaneously with the displaying step to provide dynamic content to the user on the device.

Claims

1. A system for dynamic content management, the system comprising:

a. a processing element adapted to;

i. generate content associated with an object and to store the content in a database; and

ii. dynamically adjust said content associated with said object according to a user profile to form a user-defined object-based content package;

b. a multimedia communication device associated with said user, said device comprising;

i. an optical element adapted to capture a plurality of images of captured objects;

ii. a processing device adapted to;

a) activate an object recognition algorithm to detect at least one identified object from said plurality of images of captured objects; and

b) upload said user-defined object-based content package associated with said identified object to said device; and

iii. a display adapted to display at least one captured image of said identified object and provide user-defined object-based content simultaneously so as to provide the dynamic content.

2. A system according to claim 1, wherein said device further comprises an audio output element for outputting audio received from said system.

3. A system according to claim 2, wherein said audio output element is adapted to output audio object-associated content simultaneously with said at least one captured object image so as to provide the content.

4. A system according to claim 1, wherein said processing element is further adapted to receive content from other databases, either using the same processor, or from a different processor and then dynamically merge contents into one unit, or flag as being connected to another content without merging.

5. A system according to claim 1, wherein said device further comprises a microphone element adapted to capture a plurality of sounds of captured objects.

6. A system according to claim 1, wherein said system further comprises a title content generator, which is adapted to form at least one title in said system associated with said at least one identified object.

7. A system according to claim 6, wherein said display is adapted to display at least some visual content associated with said title with said captured object image.

8. A system according to claim 1, wherein said system further comprises an external display adapted to display at least some visual content associated with said title with said captured object image.

9. A system according to claim 1, wherein said dynamic content is interactive content.

10. A system according to claim 9, wherein said interactive content comprises a visual menu or marker. A system according to claim 1, wherein said portable communications device further comprises a motion sensor for motion detection.

11. A system according to claim 1, wherein said portable communications device is selected from the group consisting of a cellular phone, a Personal Computer (PC), a mobile phone, a mobile device, a computer, a speaker set, a television and a tablet computer.

12. A system according to claim 1, wherein said optical element is selected from the group consisting a camera, a video camera, a Video stream, a CCD and CMOS image sensor and an image sensor.

13. A system according to claim 1, further comprising title management apparatus configured to filter said object-associated content according to a user profile and to output personalized object-associated content in accordance with said user profile.

14. A system according to claim 1, wherein said captured objects are selected from the group consisting of an object in the vicinity of the device;

an object in a printed article;

an image on a still display of a device;

an object in a video display.

15. A method for dynamic content management, the method comprising:

a. generating content associated with an object;

b. dynamically adjust said content associated with said object according to a user profile to form a user-defined object-based content package;

c. displaying said at least one captured image of said identified object on said device; and

d. uploading said user-defined object-based content package associated with said identified object to said device simultaneously with said displaying step to provide dynamic content to said user on said device.

16. A method according to claim 15, further comprising outputting audio object-associated content simultaneously with said at least one captured object image so as to provide said dynamic content.

17. A method according to claim 15, further comprising forming at least one title associated with said at least one identified object.

18. A method according to claim 17, wherein said displaying step further comprises displaying at least some visual content associated with said title of said captured object image.

19. A method according to claim 15, wherein said at least some visual content is interactive content.

20. A method according to claim 19, wherein said interactive content comprises a visual menu.

21. A method according to claim 17, further comprising filtering said object-associated content package according to a user profile and to output personalized object-associated content in accordance with said user profile.

22. A computer software product, said product configured for providing dynamic content management, the product comprising a computer-readable medium in which program instructions are stored, which instructions, when read by a computer, cause the computer to:

a. generate content associated with an object;

b. dynamically adjust said content associated with said object according to a user profile to form a user-defined object-based content package;

c. display said at least one captured image of said identified object on said device; and

d. upload said user-defined object-based content package associated with said identified object to said device simultaneously with said displaying step to provide dynamic content to said user on said device.

23. A system for dynamic content management, the system comprising:

a. a processing element adapted to;

i. generate content associated with an object and to store the content in a database;

ii. access data from an external database to obtain content associated with said object; and

iii. dynamically adjust said content associated with said object according to a user profile to form a user-defined object-based content package;

b. a multimedia communication device associated with said user, said device comprising;

i. an optical element adapted to capture a plurality of images of captured objects;

ii. a processing device adapted to;

a) activate an object recognition algorithm to detect at least one identified object from said plurality of images of captured objects; and

b) upload said user-defined object-based content package associated with said identified object to said device; and

iii. a display adapted to display at least one captured image of said identified object and provide user-defined object-based content simultaneously so as to provide the dynamic content.

24. A system according to claim 23, wherein said device further comprises an audio output element for outputting audio received from said system.

25. A system according to claim 24, wherein said audio output element is adapted to output audio object-associated content simultaneously with said at least one captured object image so as to provide the content.
