Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods for detecting the reactions of primary and secondary viewers of content are described. Reactions of a primary or secondary viewer of content may be detected through use of a sensor and machine learning model. Based on the reaction of the primary or secondary viewer satisfying some criteria, outputting of the content may be modified and/or alternative content may be provided. Furthermore, metadata may be generated based on the detection of adverse reactions to intrusions by a viewer of content that is associated with an indication that the outputted content is associated with certain predefined types.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- outputting, by a computing device, content;
- detecting, during the outputting of the content, based on data received from one or more sensors, a presence of a primary viewer of the content being outputted;
- determining a reaction of the primary viewer to one or more secondary viewers, wherein the secondary viewers were not present during the detecting the presence of the primary viewer;
- determining, during the outputting of the content, using a machine learning model, and based on the reaction of the primary viewer, a reaction of the one or more secondary viewers, different from the primary viewer, to a portion of the content being outputted;
- and
- modifying, based on the determined reaction of the one or more secondary viewers satisfying one or more criteria, the outputting of the content.
A method comprising:
- detecting, during outputting of content to a primary viewer and based on first data received from one or more sensors, a first intrusion into an environment associated with the primary viewer;
- determining, based on second data received from one or more sensors, a reaction of the primary viewer to the first intrusion;
- and
- in response to the first intrusion, based on the reaction of the primary viewer, and based on determining that metadata associated with the content comprises one or more key words associated with one or more predefined types of content, modifying the outputting of the content.
A method comprising:
- determining, during outputting of content, based on data received from one or more sensors, a reaction of a primary viewer that indicates a first presence of one or more secondary viewers of the content;
- and
- in response to the first presence, modifying, based on the determined reaction satisfying one or more criteria, the outputting of the content.
