Adaptive Rendered Environments Using User Context

View page
US Patent:
20170080331, Mar 23, 2017
Filed:
Dec 2, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/368513
Inventors:
- Burbank CA, US
Steven Makofsky - Sammamish WA, US
International Classification:
A63F 13/216
A63F 13/42
A63F 13/65
A63F 13/213
Abstract:
There is provided a system and method for adaptive rendered environments using user context. The method comprises determining user context data corresponding to a user of a virtual environment, altering a feature of the virtual environment using the user context data to obtain an altered feature, and rendering the altered feature of the virtual environment for display. The feature may include a non-player character in the virtual environment, such as eyesight focus of the non-player character or a physical action of the non-player character. The user context data may correspond to real world position data of a user and may be determined using a camera, for example through image recognition, or using a user device. Additionally, the virtual environment may include a cinematic, interactive game, or user generated content.

US Patent:
20150293594, Oct 15, 2015
Filed:
Apr 10, 2014
Appl. No.:
14/250289
Inventors:
- Burbank CA, US
Steven Makofsky - Sammamish WA, US
Assignee:
Disney Enterprises, Inc. - Burbank CA
International Classification:
G06F 3/01
G06F 3/041
Abstract:
There are provided systems and methods for real-time age profiling. One system includes at least one sensor, a memory storing an algorithm, and a processor configured to execute the algorithm to receive data corresponding to a user interaction with the at least one sensor and calculate an age of a user using the data corresponding to the user interaction. The data corresponding to the user interaction may include pressure data from a pressure sensor, orientation data from an orientation sensor, motion data from a motion sensor, or interaction data from an interaction sensor.

US Patent:
20150294514, Oct 15, 2015
Filed:
Apr 15, 2014
Appl. No.:
14/253778
Inventors:
- Burbank CA, US
Nitzan Katz - Los Altos CA, US
Steven Makofsky - Sammamish WA, US
Assignee:
Disney Enterprises, Inc. - Burbank CA
International Classification:
G07C 9/00
Abstract:
There is provided systems and methods of identification and automation of devices using a beacon. A system includes a beacon, an automation device, and a server. The beacon is configured to transmit a signal to the automation device in response to entering a defined geographic zone. The automation device is configured to receive the signal from the beacon, transmit, in response to receiving the signal, the signal to the server, receive an identification of a person possessing the beacon from the server, and activate an automation feature, wherein the automation feature uses the identification of the person possessing the beacon. An automation feature may include, but is not limited to, a video camera, a display device, or a stereo.

Aggregation Of User Activity Data Into A User Activity Stream

View page
US Patent:
20140207962, Jul 24, 2014
Filed:
Jan 21, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/746245
Inventors:
- Burbank CA, US
Steven Makofsky - Sammamish WA, US
Assignee:
Disney Enterprises, Inc. - Burbank CA
International Classification:
H04L 29/06
US Classification:
709231
Abstract:
There is provided a system and method for aggregation of user activity data into a user activity stream. The method comprises receiving virtual activity data from a device, receiving real activity data from at least one sensor of the device, aggregating the virtual activity data and the real activity data in the user activity stream, and storing the user activity stream for analysis of user trends. The user trends may be used to customize a digital item, such as a virtual environment, an interactive game, or a social media profile. Additionally, the user trends may be used to deliver personalized content to a user, such as advertisements, user activity options, or interactive digital content. The user activity stream may also be connected to at least one other user profile and may be published for viewing.
