Abstract
An electronic device including a display device configured to render first content. The electronic device is communicably coupled to the display device and controls one or more imaging devices to receive one or more images from the one or more imaging devices. The electronic device further determines a first position of one or more living objects within a pre-defined region from the display device, based on the received one or more images and the rendered first content. The electronic device further controls an orientation of the display device towards the determined first position of the one or more living objects.
Claims20
An electronic device, comprising:
- a display device configured to render first content;
- and
- a processor communicably coupled to the display device, wherein the processor is configured to:
- control one or more imaging devices to receive one or more images from the one or more imaging devices;
- select, based on metadata of the rendered first content, one or more living objects from a plurality of living objects present within a pre-defined region from the display device,
- wherein the one or more living objects are selected from the one or more images received from the one or more imaging devices;
- retrieve profile information associated with the one or more living objects;
- compare the retrieved profile information of the one or more living objects with the metadata of the rendered first content;
- determine a first position of the selected one or more living objects within the pre-defined region based on
- the received one or more images, and
- the comparison between the retrieved profile information of the one or more living objects and the metadata of the rendered first content;
- and
- control an orientation of the display device towards the determined first position of the one or more living objects.
A method, comprising:
- in an electronic device:
- controlling a display device to render first content;
- controlling one or more imaging devices for receiving one or more images from the one or more imaging devices;
- selecting, based on metadata of the rendered first content, one or more living objects from a plurality of living objects present within a pre-defined region from the display device, wherein the one or more living objects are selected from the one or more images received from the one or more imaging devices;
- retrieving profile information associated with the one or more living objects;
- comparing the retrieved profile information of the one or more living objects with the metadata of the rendered first content;
- determining a first position of the selected one or more living objects within the pre-defined region based on
- the received one or more images, and
- the comparison of the retrieved profile information of the one or more living objects with the metadata of the rendered first content;
- and
- controlling an orientation of the display device towards the determined first position of the one or more living objects.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon, computer-executable instructions that when executed by an electronic device, causes the electronic device to execute operations, the operations comprising:
- controlling a display device to render first content;
- controlling one or more imaging devices for receiving one or more images from the one or more imaging devices;
- selecting, based on metadata of the rendered first content, one or more living objects from a plurality of living objects present within a pre-defined region from the display device, wherein the one or more living objects are selected from the one or more images received from the one or more imaging devices;
- retrieving profile information associated with the one or more living objects;
- comparing the retrieved profile information of the one or more living objects with the metadata of the rendered first content;
- determining a first position of the selected one or more living objects within the pre-defined region based on
- the received one or more images, and
- the comparison of the retrieved profile information of the one or more living objects with the metadata of the rendered first content;
- and
- controlling an orientation of the display device towards the determined first position of the one or more living objects.
