Abstract
A program is presented to a user including a stream of content including a first auditory content and a first visual content related to the workout. A context state of the user participating in the workout is determined based on information from a sensor. A responsive content is selectively added based on the context state of the user to the stream of content in a manner that avoids conflict with the stream of content.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a media controller configured to present a program to a user including a stream of audiovisual content related to a workout that the user is participating in;
- and
- one or more processors configured to:
- determine a context state of the user participating in the workout based on information from a sensor, wherein the context state comprises at least one of the following:
- a user name, a user status, a user responsive mood, a repetitive encouragement time;
- a current movement, a future movement, and a number of repetitions left;
- and
- based on the determined context state of the user, dynamically edit the stream of audiovisual content in part by presenting seamless media via an adjustment to video, including determining a responsive content with which to edit the stream of audiovisual content and a manner in which the stream of audiovisual content is edited with the responsive content,
- wherein determining the responsive content comprises:
- matching the context state of the user with a plurality of candidate content to curate a plurality of surviving content;
- weighting the plurality of surviving content at least in part based on comparison of a surviving content tag against the context state of the user;
- selecting a most weighted surviving content as the responsive content;
- and
- updating the responsive content metadata.
