Abstract:
The invention relates to a window blind (10) with at least one lamella (25) and at least one lighting element (20), wherein the lamella (25) comprises an illuminating body (30), the lighting element (20) injects an artificial light (21) into the illuminating body (30), the illuminating body (30) comprises a light guiding material, configured to transport the artificial light (21), the illuminating body (30) comprises a light extraction means (40), configured to receive and to deflect the artificial light (21) out of the illuminating body (30). The invention discloses, that the light extraction means (40) is embedded within the illuminating body (30), and the light extraction means (40) is controllable, in order to vary the degree of deflection of the artificial light (21).
Abstract:
The invention relates to an illumination device (10) for illuminating a surface, with a lighting element (20) and an illuminating body (30), wherein the lighting element (20) emits an artificial light (21,21'), a housing element (40) comprises the lighting element (20) and supports the illuminating body (30), the illuminating body (30) comprises a transparent light conductive material and is generally overlying the surface, being illuminated. The invention discloses, that the illuminating body (30) comprises a light extraction layer (50), configured to receive and to deflect the artificial light (21,21') from the lighting element (20) onto the surface.
Abstract:
A method of obtaining data associated with a content item, comprising the steps of obtaining (32) an identifier for the content item, performing (33) a database lookup to obtain the data using the identifier and submitting (37) the content item to an output (210) for processing by a human (200) if the database lookup fails to obtain the data, characterized by a step (35) of automatically classifying the content item into one of a number of classes, and by performing at least one of the other steps conditionally based upon the classification of the content item. In an embodiment the content item is submitted to the output only if (36) the database lookup fails to obtain the data and the content item was classified into one of a number of predetermined classes. Also a server (300) and a computer program product arranged to carry out the method.

Abstract:
A method and a system (10) which is capable of being implemented as a children's' toy. The system (10) is operable to interface an add-on device (20a) or a story to an interactive environment hosted by the system (10). The system (10) includes a response engine (30) which is operable to receive notification (225) from add-on devices introduced to the system (10). The response engine is operable to generate challenges (235) to the add-on devices (20a) wherein the challenges include watermarks embedded therein. The response engine (30) is operable to receive corresponding responses sent from the add-on devices (20a) in response to the challenges (235). Moreover, the response engine (30) is further operable to analyze the corresponding responses to determine whether or not the add-on devices (20a) are able to extract the watermarks correctly from the challenges (235) in generating the corresponding responses. The system (10) is thereby selectively capable of accepting the new devices (20a) to the system (10), thereby preventing counterfeit or copy products being used with the system (10).
