Abstract
An operation method of an image display device used by users according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of: receiving user data of a user and user data of at least one user group; collecting viewing history information of the user and viewing history information of the at least one user group; extracting a plurality of user viewing patterns using the user data and the viewing history information; and providing a referral program corresponding to a user viewing pattern of a highest priority on a basis of priorities of the extracted user viewing patterns, wherein the user group includes at least two users among the plurality of users.
Claims14
An operation method of an image display device used by a plurality of users, the operation method comprising:
- receiving, via a camera or a user interface, user data of a user and user data of at least one user group;
- collecting, by a controller, viewing history information for the user and viewing history information for the at least one user group;
- extracting, by the controller, a plurality of user viewing patterns by using the user data and the user viewing history information;
- providing, by the controller, a referral program corresponding to a user viewing pattern of a highest priority on a basis of priorities of the plurality of extracted user viewing patterns;
- displaying, via a display, a first referral program corresponding to a first user viewing pattern, when the user viewing pattern of the highest priority corresponds to the first user viewing pattern extracted by using user data of a first user group and viewing history information on the first user group;
- recognizing, by the controller, a user;
- and
- as a recognition result, when at least one user among users comprised in the first user group is not recognized, separately providing, by the controller, the first referral program to the user who is not recognized,
- wherein the separately providing the first referral program comprises storing the first referral program in a storage inside the image display device or an external server, or transmitting information on the first referral program or first referral program data to a pre-registered terminal of the user who is not recognized.
An image display device used by a plurality of users, the image display device comprising:
- a camera capturing a user image;
- a user interface;
- and
- a controller configured to receive user data of a user and user data of at least one user group from the camera and the user interface, collect viewing history information for the user and viewing history information for the at least one user group, extract a plurality of user viewing patterns by using the user data and the user viewing history information, and provide a referral program corresponding to a user viewing pattern of a highest priority among the plurality of user viewing patterns,
- wherein the user interface is configured to receive a user ID, a user age, a user gender, and information on another terminal possessed by the user,
- wherein the controller is further configured to:
- display a first referral program corresponding to a first user viewing pattern, when the user viewing pattern of the highest priority corresponds to the first user viewing pattern extracted by using user data of a first user group and viewing history information on the first user group,
- recognize a user, and
- as a recognition result, when at least one user among users comprised in the first user group is not recognized, separately provide the first referral program to the user who is not recognized, and
- wherein the controller is further configured to separately provide the first referral program by storing the first referral program in a storage inside the image display device or an external server, or transmitting information on the first referral program or first referral program data to a pre-registered terminal of the user who is not recognized.
An image display device used by a plurality of users, the image display device comprising:
- a camera capturing a user image;
- a user interface;
- and
- a controller configured to receive user data of a user and user data of at least one user group from the camera and the user interface, collect viewing history information for the user and viewing history information for the at least one user group, extract a plurality of user viewing patterns by using the user data and the user viewing history information, and provide a referral program corresponding to a user viewing pattern of a highest priority among the plurality of user viewing patterns,
- wherein the controller is further configured to:
- display a first referral program corresponding to a first user viewing pattern, when the user viewing pattern of the highest priority corresponds to the first user viewing pattern extracted by using user data of a first user group and viewing history information on the first user group,
- recognize a user, and
- as a recognition result, separately provide referral programs corresponding to user viewing patterns remaining by excluding the user viewing pattern of the highest priority from among the plurality of user viewing patterns.
