Abstract
A personal electronic device (PED) is provided with a system for playing, mixing, and delivering media and activity based messages to a user based upon the activity of the user. In some embodiments, the user can define user preferences, which determine when and how and when the media is mixed and activity based messages are mixed and output. In some embodiments, the message selection is based upon monitored and detected activity, the location, or speed of the user. In some embodiments, the message selection is based upon a detection of a local environmental event.
Claims30
A method in a personal electronic device (PED), comprising:
- enabling a user to input a user preference associated with an activity;
- playing media from the PED;
- monitoring, using at least one sensor in the PED, user activity associated with the user;
- and
- in response to the user activity, mixing the media playing from the PED based on the user preference.
A method in a personal electronic device (PED), comprising:
- enabling a user to perform a first function, comprising:
- receiving a user preference associated with an activity;
- and
- monitoring, using at least one sensor in the PED, user activity associated with the user with reference to the user preference;
- and
- enabling the user to perform a second function, comprising:
- playing media from the PED;
- and
- mixing the media playing from the PED based on the user activity.
A non-transitory computing readable medium storing instructions thereon that, when executed by a processing system, directs the processing system to perform a method in a personal electronic device (PED), the method comprising:
- receiving a user preference associated with an activity;
- monitoring, using at least one sensor in the PED, activity associated with the PED with reference to the user preference;
- and
- in response to the activity, mixing media playing from the PED to output an activity based suggestive (ABS) message.
