Abstract
Avatars, methods, apparatuses, computer program products, devices and systems are described that carry out identifying a member of a population cohort; and inducing at least one behavior in the member of the population cohort based on an association between the population cohort and at least one cohort-linked avatar.
Claims33
A method comprising:
- identifying a member of a population cohort;
- and
- inducing at least one behavior in the member of the population cohort based on an association between the population cohort and at least one cohort-linked avatars,
- where each step is performed using a suitably programmed microprocessor.
1 more element
A system comprising:
- circuitry for identifying a member of a population cohort;
- and
- circuitry for inducing at least one behavior in the member of the population cohort based on an association between the population cohort and at least one cohort-linked avatar.
A computer program product comprising:
- a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium bearing
- (a) one or more instructions for identifying a member of a population cohort;
- and
- (b) one or more instructions for inducing at least one behavior in the member of the population cohort based on an association between the population cohort and at least one cohort-linked avatar.
1 more element
A system comprising:
- a computing device;
- and
- instructions that when executed on the computing device cause the computing device to
- (a) identify a member of a population cohort;
- and
- (b) induce at least one behavior in the member of the population cohort based on an association between the population cohort and at least one cohort-linked avatar.
