Abstract
Methods, computer-readable media and devices for presenting a personalized content to a viewer at a display are disclosed. For example, a method receives location information of a device of an individual, compares the location information to a location of the display and determines that the individual is the viewer when the location information indicates that the device of the individual is proximate to the display. The method then presents the personalized content to the viewer on the display when it is determined that the individual is the viewer.

A method for presenting a personalized content to a viewer at a display, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a processor, location information of a device of an individual, wherein the display is distinct from the device;
- comparing, by the processor, the location information to a location of the display;
- determining, by the processor, that the individual is the viewer when the location information indicates that the device of the individual is proximate to the display, wherein the determining that the individual is the viewer further comprises:
- obtaining biometric information associated with the viewer, wherein the biometric information comprises voice information;
- comparing the biometric information that is obtained to stored biometric information associated with the individual;
- and
- confirming that the individual is the viewer when the biometric information that is obtained matches the stored biometric information associated with the individual;
- and
- presenting, by the processor, the personalized content on the display when the individual is determined to be the viewer.
