Abstract
A system and method for automatically recording viewer reactions to viewed video content. The system and method utilize a system that responds to pre-tagged segments of video content. Upon recognition of such a tagged segment, a video camera is activated to capture the viewer response. A composite video of the captured viewer response and the segment of viewed video is then created. The viewer is notified that the composite video has been created. The system and method also provide the viewer with options to share the video via social media.
Claims20
A system for recording reaction to viewed a video, the system comprising:
- at least one display adapted to present a digital video comprising at least one video segment associated with a tag, wherein the tag identifies the video segment as likely to generate a significant viewer reaction and provides information indicative of the duration of the identified video segment;
- at least one camera adapted to record images of at least one individual situated to watch the at least one video monitor;
- a memory adapted to store digital video information;
- and
- at least one processor adapted to:
- detect the tag associated with the at least one video segment as the at least one video segment is being presented upon the at least one video display;
- activate the camera, in response to the detection of the tag, to record video during for the duration of the at least one video segment;
- store the at least one video segment and the video recorded by the camera during the at least one video segment in the memory;
- combine the at least one video segment and the video recorded by the camera during the at least one video segment to create a composite video;
- and
- store the composite video in the memory.
A method for recording reaction to viewed a video in a system comprising:
- at least one display adapted to present a digital video comprising at least one video segment associated with a tag, wherein the tag identifies the video segment as likely to generate a significant viewer reaction and provides information indicative of the duration of the identified video segment;
- at least one camera adapted to record images of at least one individual situated to watch the at least one video monitor;
- a memory adapted to store digital video information;
- and
- at least one processor adapted:
- The method comprising the steps of:
- detecting the tag associated with the at least one video segment as the at least one video segment is being presented upon the at least one video display;
- activating the camera, in response to the detection of the tag, to record video during for the duration of the at least one video segment;
- storing the at least one video segment and the video recorded by the camera during the at least one video segment in the memory;
- combining the at least one video segment and the video recorded by the camera during the at least one video segment to create a composite video;
- and
- storing the composite video in the memory.
