TELEVISION (TV) PLATFORM LINKED WITH NON FUNGIBLE TOKEN (NFT) MARKET, AND CONTROL METHOD FOR SAME TV PLATFORM

Smart overview of the Invention

The TV platform integrates with a Non-Fungible Token (NFT) market, allowing users to purchase digital products related to broadcast content. It includes an output unit for display and sound, a communication unit for connecting to NFT and broadcasting servers, a scene analysis unit for detecting features in broadcast scenes, and a control unit for managing data and user interactions. The system matches detected features with digital product information to facilitate seamless NFT purchases directly from the TV.

Technical Field

This technology enhances TV platforms by linking them with NFT markets, transforming TVs into multimedia devices capable of purchasing digital artwork. As TV functionalities expand beyond traditional broadcasting, this invention leverages advancements in communication technology to remove regional content limitations and cater to global consumer demand for digital products associated with popular broadcast content.

Background Art

Traditional TVs are evolving into comprehensive audio-visual platforms with capabilities such as internet access and multimedia playback. These developments have spurred research into using TV platforms for purchasing digital products related to broadcast content. The invention addresses the need for an integrated approach that allows users to easily find and buy NFTs linked to the content they watch.

Solution

The platform comprises several components: a display and sound output unit, a communication unit for server connections, a scene analysis unit for detecting scene features, and a control unit for database management and user interaction. It receives digital product data from NFT servers, creates databases, and displays graphic objects indicating available digital products. Users can select these objects to access NFT purchase pages directly from their TV.

Implementation Details

• The control unit activates an NFT market application in the background, receiving product data to create databases.
• It updates databases based on version information and selects relevant databases according to broadcast content characteristics.
• Feature points detected from scenes include characters, objects, or geographical features.
• The system displays NFT drop objects as graphic indicators on the screen, allowing user interaction via external input devices like motion sensors or preset keys.
• The control unit facilitates NFT purchases by directing users to web pages containing ownership information and pricing details.
