<p>A targeted communication capability is provided herein. The targeted communication capability enables targeted delivery of various types of information in various content distribution environments. The information may include content (e.g., text, audio, image, video, multimedia, and the like), recommendations for content and activities, advertisements, and the like. The content distribution environments may include radio systems, the Internet, video-based systems, and the like. The targeted communication capability may include a hybrid radio capability, in which a hybrid radio supports a broadcast audio channel that is used to receive broadcast audio content from broadcast audio content sources and a targeted communication channel configured to enable interaction between the hybrid radio and one or more network devices (e.g., enabling feedback to be provided from the hybrid radio to the network devices and/or enabling information (in addition to the broadcast audio content received via the broadcast audio channel) to be provided to the hybrid radio). The targeted communication capability may support various other types of targeted communication capabilities (e.g., a context-based radio capability, a real-time traffic condition alerting capability, an Internet-based radio capability, a video-based targeted communication capability, and the like, as well as various combinations thereof).</p> |
