Abstract:
1. Network extensible reconfigurable media processing of A/V data streams according to non-linear branching points comprising steps: pre-producing a plurality of A/V data streams from a plurality of network extensible reconfigurable media appliances according to a plurality of non-linear branching points; and sensing or producing the pre-produced data streams, such that one or more of the network extensible reconfigurable media appliances senses or produces the pre-produced data stream according to the one or more non-linear branching points; wherein said network extensible reconfigurable media appliances comprise a group of at least one mobile, wireless or cellular device comprising a GPS transponder or module and a video or image sensor, such that each such device GPS transponder or module and video or image sensor senses or produces in real-time location-based or tagged video-stream as part of a distributed peer-to-peer network of such video-stream sensing or producing mobile, wireless or cellular devices configured extensibly for joining or leaving dynamically such group, thereby effectively enabling seamless real-time integration or synchronization of such sensed or produced location-based or tagged video-streams from different mobile, wireless or cellular devices configured extensibly in the group according to the one or more non-linear branching points; wherein the mobile, wireless or cellular devices are synchronized to collaborate effectively each as different but related rendering peers in the group collectively reconstructing a media project extensibly within a mobile extensible reconfigurable effects studio, whereby each such device in such studio is delegated a different but related data structure that renders via one or more multi-path video interface associated with each such device separately sensing and rendering such media project, each such data structure thereby being different but related to each such device separately according to one or more theater automation cue synchronized per video scene and time stamp, such that each such mobile, wireless or cellular device renders video for the same media project differently according delegated different but related data structures that each renders collaboratively different but related video scenes and synchronization time stamps for the reconstructed media project.
