SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATICALLY IDENTIFYING A USER PREFERENCE FOR A PARTICIPANT FROM A COMPETITION EVENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18437902 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATICALLY IDENTIFYING A USER PREFERENCE FOR A PARTICIPANT FROM A COMPETITION EVENT
The patent application describes systems and methods for determining a user's preference for or against a participant in an event based on monitoring their reactions to a related media asset.
- The media guidance application detects changes in the user's biometric and physiological states while a media asset related to the event is being played.
- It identifies events within the sporting event that trigger these changes and determines the user's preference based on their reactions.
- If the user reacts positively towards a score for the first participant in the event, the application determines that the user favors the first participant over the second participant.
Potential Applications: - Personalized content recommendations based on user preferences. - Enhanced user experience in sports broadcasting. - Targeted advertising based on user reactions.
Problems Solved: - Improving user engagement with media content. - Providing tailored recommendations for users. - Enhancing the overall viewing experience.
Benefits: - Increased user satisfaction. - More effective content delivery. - Enhanced user interaction with media assets.
Commercial Applications: Title: Personalized Media Guidance System for Enhanced User Experience This technology can be utilized in streaming services, sports broadcasting platforms, and advertising agencies to provide personalized recommendations and enhance user engagement.
Prior Art: Readers can explore prior art related to biometric monitoring in media consumption, user preference analysis in sports events, and personalized content recommendations.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in biometric monitoring technology, user behavior analysis, and personalized content delivery systems.
Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the media guidance application determine user preferences based on biometric and physiological reactions? 2. What are the potential privacy concerns associated with monitoring user reactions to media content?
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and methods are disclosed herein for determining a preference of a user for or against a participant of an event when a media asset relating to the event is being played based on monitoring user reactions to the event. Specifically, the media guidance application may detect a change of at least one of the biometric state (e.g., pulse rate, blood pressure, etc.) and physiological state (e.g., facial expression, gesture, body movement, etc.) with a user. The media guidance application may determine that an event has occurred within the sporting event that triggered the change. The media guidance application may determine that the user favors the first participant over the second participant, if the user reacts positively towards a score for the first participant in the event.
