Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems, methods, and machine-readable media for concurrent communication. One method includes displaying an interactive application on a first device of a user during a break in an entertainment segment displayed on a second device, sending a request for interaction from the user through the interactive application, pausing the interactive application when the break in the entertainment segment is over, and notifying the user when an additional break begins so the user can commence interacting with the interactive application.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- detecting a first product is being displayed by a first device associated with a user during a break in an entertainment segment;
- determining the user previously purchased a second product related to the first product;
- and
- in response to determining the user previously purchased the second product, sending, to an interactive application executing on a second device associated with the user,
- a comparison of a first set of features of the first product to a second set of features of the second product;
- and
- a recommendation for the user to add one or more features to the second product based on the comparison of the first set of features of the first product to the second set of features of the second product.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- one or more memories storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform a process comprising:
- detecting a first product is being displayed by a first device associated with a user during a break in an entertainment segment;
- determining the user previously purchased a second product related to the first product;
- and
- in response to determining the user previously purchased the second product, sending, to an interactive application executing on a second device associated with the user,
- a comparison of a first set of features of the first product to a second set of features of the second product;
- and
- a recommendation for the user to add one or more features to the second product based on the comparison of the first set of features of the first product to the second set of features of the second product.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:
- detecting a first product is being displayed by a first device associated with a user during a break in an entertainment segment;
- determining the user previously purchased a second product related to the first product;
- and
- in response to determining the user previously purchased the second product, sending, to an interactive application executing on a second device associated with the user,
- a comparison of a first set of features of the first product to a second set of features of the second product;
- and
- a recommendation for the user to add one or more features to the second product based on the comparison of the first set of features of the first product to the second set of features of the second product.
