Abstract:
1. Location or directional orientation-based electronic method for configuring a wireless or mobile cellular or gaming appliance for non-linear media production comprising step: configuring a wireless or mobile cellular or gaming appliance automatically via a controller to enable electronic pre-production of location or directional orientation-based media or gaming content according to a script, storyboard or template, wherein the location or directional orientation-based media or gaming content is provided by a sensor comprising a single-chip accelerometer or acceleration detector, and the controller accesses the sensor to enable at least one meta data-structure to tag such location or directional orientation-based media or gaming content for synchronizing post-production non-linearly according to the script, storyboard or template; said script, storyboard or template comprising a plurality of branching points of multiple media streams for enabling non-linear reconstruction of an event covered by a distributed group of network-extensible reconfigurable media appliances that dynamically join or leave said group to provide one or more of such media streams, whereby each appliance in said group is synchronized to cover the same event but provide a different media presentation of such same event according to said script, storyboard or template; wherein the sensor is provided on-appliance for one or more appliance in said group, such that the controller determines real-time location or directional orientation for each such appliance separately having on-appliance sensor, such that the controller enables the non-linear reconstruction of the event covered by the distributed group of network-extensible media appliances by accessing such one or more appliances in said group having on-appliance sensor to tag location or directional orientation-based content associated or synchronizable with each such one or more appliances in said group having on-appliance sensor; wherein the on-appliance sensor further comprises a micro-GPS transponder that enables the controller to determine real-time location or directional orientation for each such appliance separately having on-appliance sensor, such that the controller accesses each such transponder sensor to enable said at least one meta data-structure to tag such location or directional-based media or gaming content according to such micro-GPS transponder in each such appliance, whereby the non-linear reconstruction of the covered event is determined by the controller using the micro-GPS transponder-generated real-time location or directional orientation to enable said at least one meta-data structure for tagging said location or directional-based media or gaming content.
