Techniques for personalizing the playback of a media title based on user interactions with an internet of things device

One or more non-transitory computer readable media including instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to playback a media title by performing the steps of:

• determining a first movement of an internet of things (“IoT”) device, while a client device plays back a first chunk of the media title;
• determining, from a plurality of target states, a first target state that is associated with the first movement;
• determining, based on the first target state, a second chunk of the media title that should be a next chunk of the media title streamed to the client device for playback;
• in response to determining that the second chunk should be the next chunk of the media title to be streamed to the client device for playback, causing the second chunk of the media title to be streamed to the client device;
• and
• iteratively streaming selected chunks of the media title to the client device based on movements of the IoT device at a playback rate that is determined based on a network connection with the client device.

A system comprising:

• one or more memories storing instructions;
• and
• one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories that, when executing the instructions, perform the steps of:
• determining a first movement of an internet of things (“IoT”) device, while a client device plays back a first chunk of a media title;
• determining, from a plurality of target states, a first target state that is associated with the first movement;
• determining, based on the first target state, a second chunk of the media title that should be a next chunk of the media title streamed to the client device for playback;
• in response to determining that the second chunk should be the next chunk of the media title to be streamed to the client device for playback, causing the second chunk of the media title to be streamed to the client device;
• and
• iteratively streaming selected chunks of the media title to the client device based on movements of the IoT device at a playback rate that is determined based on a network connection with the client device.
