Method and apparatus for providing personalized content

摘要

A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, receiving reaction information from one or more sensors located at a second location that is representative of a reaction by a second user at the second location to the presentation of the personalized content, analyzing the reaction information to determine a response based at least in part on trait information associated with different first users, selecting a second portion of the recorded segments based on a comparison of the determined response with a context identified for each of received recorded segments, and adjusting personalized content to include the selected second portion of the recorded segments. Other embodiments are disclosed.

主权项

1. An apparatus, comprising:
a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising: generating a personalized media channel, wherein access to the personalized media channel is granted to a first equipment of a first premises, second equipment of a second premises and third equipment of a third premises; obtaining a subject matter from the third equipment; presenting, over a network, the subject matter to the first equipment and to the second equipment, wherein the presented subject matter further comprises presenting a menu of topics for selection of the subject matter of the personalized media channel based on determined subject matter from past communication sessions with a third user of the third equipment; receiving, over the network, a plurality of first recorded segments captured by a first video camera at the first premises, the plurality of first recorded segments comprising video and audio content of a first user based on the selected subject matter; receiving, over the network, a plurality of second recorded segments captured by a second video camera at the second premises, the plurality of second recorded segments comprising video and audio content of a second user based on the selected subject matter; generating personalized content, wherein the personalized content comprises a first portion comprising one first recorded segment of the plurality of first recorded segments and a second portion comprising one second recorded segment of the plurality of second recorded segments, wherein the first portion and the second portion are selected according to the subject matter, and wherein the personalized content simulating the first and second users being together at a single location by manipulating recorded images of the first and second users to be combined for the simulating of the single location; providing the personalized content via the personalized media channel to a set top box at the third premises of the third user for presentation; receiving reaction information from the set top box that is representative of a reaction by the third user to the presentation of the personalized content, the reaction information being captured by an image sensor and an audio sensor coupled with the set top box for capturing video and audio content of the third user; accessing first trait information associated with the first user and second trait information associated with the third user; analyzing the reaction information to determine a response, wherein the response is determined based in part on the first and second trait information; selecting one other first or second recorded segment from the plurality of first and second recorded segments based on a comparison of the response with the subject matter for each of the plurality of first and second recorded segments; adjusting the personalized content to generate adjusted personalized content that includes the one other first or second recorded segment; and determining an accuracy of the one other first recorded segment or second recorded segment with respect to the response, wherein the determining the accuracy comprises determining another subject matter relevant to the third user and determining if the adjusted personalized content matches the other subject matter based on the reaction.
