Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed herein for establishing communication with users based on biometric data. For example, in response to determining that a user has a particular biometric state, the media guidance application may present an option to contact another user that is associated with that biometric state.
Claims21
A method for establishing communication with users based on biometric data, the method comprising:
- measuring, using control circuitry, biometric data associated with a first user;
- determining, using the control circuitry, a biometric state of the user based on the biometric data;
- cross-referencing the biometric state of the first user with a database listing a plurality of users associated with different biometric states to identify a second user associated with the first user to establish communication based on the biometric state of the first user;
- and
- generating for display to the first user communication information associated with the second user based on the identification.

A system for establishing communication with users based on biometric data, the system comprising:
- storage circuitry configured to a database listing a plurality of users associated with different biometric states;
- and
- control circuitry configured to:
- measure biometric data associated with a first user;
- determine a biometric state of the user based on the biometric data;
- cross-reference the biometric state of the first user with the database listing a plurality of users associated with different biometric states to identify a second user associated with the first user to establish communication based on the biometric state of the first user;
- and
- generate for display to the first user communication information associated with the second user based on the identification.
