Audible
Magic Corporation, the leader in automated content recognition (ACR
solutions and services, today announced that the U.S. Patent Office has
granted it three new patents for its innovative work in automated
content recognition (ACR technology, a key enabler in the fast emerging
Smart (or «connected» TV and Social TV marketplaces worldwide. The
patents, which bring Audible Magic’s total to 18
U.S. and European patent awards, demonstrate the company’s
consistent, ongoing commitment to provide unique new capabilities to

their solutions.

Each of the newly awarded patents tackles a different facet of current
ACR challenges. The first, U.S.
Patent #8,006,314, is a system that identifies an unknown piece of digital
content by analyzing its metrics and then matching these with known
content for identification. The second, U.S.
Patent #8,082,150, is a system that receives audio data from
an unknown work and checks it against known audio data to see if there
is a match. And the third, U.S.

reference database, allowing for a more efficient identification process
on systems with limited compute resources.

Together with the company’s previously awarded patents and growing
portfolio of ACR solutions and services, these three new innovations
have helped strengthen Audible Magic’s competitive position as it
pursues Smart TV, Social TV, Interactive Advertising and other
opportunities. In recent months, for example, the company has announced
numerous technology partnerships with other companies focused on these
markets.

smart phones must have some form of ACR technology embedded in it to
provide the highly interactive, highly engaging experience today’s
consumers crave,» said Jay Friedman, VP of Marketing for Audible Magic.
