MEDIA STREAMING METHODS, APPARATUS AND SYSTEMS

摘要

Techniques and systems are provided for assisting a user through a guidance mode activity. Such a user may be visually or otherwise impaired, or a user requiring help for other reasons. In some embodiments, a client device, held or worn by the user, may comprise a video capture device and several sensors, and may send video data and sensor data to a server. The server may comprise a processor and artificial intelligence. The server may send the video data and sensor data to an agent device. The agent device may provide content for display on an agent interface. An agent may view the agent interface, and assist the user in real time through audio instructions or other feedback.

主权项

1. A portable electronic apparatus comprising:
a power source; a storage device storing profile data of a user of the apparatus; a video capture device configured to capture video data of an environment in which the apparatus is located; a video coding device configured to receive video data from the video capture device and compress the video data to generate compressed video data; a location sensor configured to obtain location data that indicates a location of the portable electronic apparatus; an input device; wireless communication circuitry; a processor operatively coupled to the power source, the video coding device, the location sensor, the input device and the wireless communication circuitry, the processor configured to:
receive input corresponding to activation of a guidance mode;activate guidance mode and generate and send a guidance request in response to receiving the input; andwhile guidance mode is active, transmit compressed video data and location data using the wireless communication circuitry to a second device, and receive guidance feedback data from the second device; and an output device configured to output information to the user based on the guidance feedback data.
