Video display monitoring methods and systems
Methods and apparatus are provided for monitoring video content provided to a vehicle. In one embodiment a method includes: receiving video content at the vehicle; monitoring the video content based on guidelines data stored in a datastore; and selectively modifying the video content based on the monitoring.
1. A method of monitoring video content provided to a vehicle, comprising:
receiving the video content at the vehicle;
monitoring, by a processor of the vehicle, the video content in real-time based on guidelines data stored in a datastore of the vehicle, the guidelines data indicating rules and data values established by a government entity in which the video content must comply in order to be displayed in the vehicle; and
selectively modifying, by a processor of the vehicle, display characteristics of the video content in real-time based on the monitoring, wherein the selectively modifying comprises blocking selected data of a frame of the video content from being displayed by at least one of freezing and defining a constant value for the selected data of the frame of the video content.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selectively modifying the video content comprises modifying the video content such that all of the video content is blocked from being displayed when all of the video content violates the guidelines data.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selectively modifying the video content comprises modifying the video content such that a portion of the video content is blocked from being displayed when the portion of the video content violates the guidelines data.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selectively modifying comprises modifying the video content such that the video content is blocked from being displayed.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the selectively modifying comprises modifying the video content to display all one color.
6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the selectively modifying comprises modifying the video content to display a pattern.
7. The method of claim 4 , wherein the selectively modifying comprises modifying the video content to display a selected frame of video content.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the guidelines data is pre-stored based on a vehicle data.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the guidelines data is pre-stored based on video data.
10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying the modified video content on a display device of the vehicle.
11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the receiving the video content is from a foreign device of the vehicle.
12. The method of claim 1 , further comprising generating monitoring results based on the monitoring.
13. A system for monitoring video content provided to a vehicle, comprising:
a first module that receives the video content at the vehicle;
a second module that, by a processor, monitors the video content in real-time based on guidelines data stored in a datastore of the vehicle, the guidelines data indicates rules and data values established by a government entity in which the video content must comply in order to be displayed in the vehicle; and
a third module that, by a processor, selectively modifies display characteristics of the video content in real-time based on the monitoring wherein the selectively modifying comprises blocking selected data of a frame of the video content from being displayed by at least one of freezing and defining a constant value for the selected data of the frame of the video content.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the third module selectively modifies the video content such that all of the video content is blocked from being displayed when all of the video content violates the guidelines data.
15. The system of claim 13 , wherein the third module selectively modifies the video content such that the portion of the video content is blocked from being displayed when a portion of the video content violates the guidelines data.
16. The system of claim 13 , wherein the third module selectively modifies the video content such that the video content is blocked from being displayed.
17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the third module selectively modifies the video content to display all one color.
18. The system of claim 16 , wherein the third module selectively modifies the video content to display a pattern.
19. The system of claim 16 , wherein the third module selectively modifies the video content to display a selected frame of video content.
20. The system of claim 13 , wherein the guidelines data is pre-stored based on at least one of vehicle data and video data.
21. The system of claim 13 , further comprising a fourth module that displays the modified video content on a display device of the vehicle.
22. The system of claim 13 , further comprising a fifth module that generates monitoring results based on the monitoring.
