10019725 · 2018-07-10 · ·

A wireless device is enabled to provide offers. The wireless device receives card data for a financial account card and stores the card data in a memory associated with the wireless device. Responsive to using the card data in a transaction at a first merchant location, the wireless device receives transaction line-item data from a computing system associated with the first merchant location. The wireless device determines merchant information for a second merchant location and determines an offer associated with the second merchant location based on the line-item data and the merchant information for the second merchant. The wireless device presents the offer when the wireless device is near the second merchant location.

Supplemental analysis module for invitational content

Method and arrangements are provided to generate supplemental analysis modules for items of invitational content, the modules including an event dictionary and event handlers. Such modules are configured to collect event information at an end user device associated with the operation of an item of invitational content, determine whether the event information corresponds to an entry in the event dictionary, and, upon determining that the event information corresponds to an entry, identify an event handler corresponding to the entry and routing the event information to the event handler, where the event handler is configured for generating an event message.

COGNITIVE AND AFFECTIVE HUMAN MACHINE INTERFACE

Cognitive, emotional and/or affective state information may be used for adaptive gaming, advertisement insertion delivery timing, driver or pilot assistance, education, advertisement selection, product and/or content suggestions, and/or video chat applications. A human machine interface (HMI) may be generated. A content placement in the HMI may be managed. Sensor data from one or more sensors may be received. A timing for delivery of content may be determined. The timing for delivery of the content may be determined based on at least one of the determined cognitive state of the user or the determined affective state of the user. The content may be selected for delivery to the user based on at least one of the cognitive state of the user or the affective state of the user. The content may include an advertisement.

CONTEXT BASED AUGMENTED ADVERTISEMENT

10009301 · 2018-06-26 · ·

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs stored on a computer-readable storage medium, for peer-to-peer location-based messaging. In some implementations, a mobile device selectively displays displayable messages associated with beacons corresponding to specific locations that the mobile device visits. The mobile device can extract identifiers from wireless messages from beacons and determine whether to display a message corresponding to a beacon based on filter parameters of a user and data indicating characteristics of a property where a beacon is located. The displayable messages corresponding to beacons can be messages users who associated with the beacons have previously designated for presentation upon detection of the beacons. The mobile device can displays the displayable message for a beacon while the mobile device is a detection range to receive the wireless message from the beacon.

Disclosed is a method of recommending one or more skin care products to a user. The method includes receiving one or more images of the user. Further, the method includes receiving indoor environmental data corresponding to an accommodation associated with the user. Moreover, the method includes identifying the one or more skin care products based on each of the one or more images and the indoor environmental data.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING FOR DISPLAY RECOMMENDATIONS THAT ARE TEMPORALLY RELEVANT TO ACTIVITIES OF A USER AND ARE CONTEXTUALLY RELEVANT TO A PORTION OF A MEDIA ASSET THAT THE USER IS CONSUMING
20180146258 · 2018-05-24 ·

Systems and methods are provided herein for displaying recommendations that are temporally relevant to activities of a user and are contextually relevant to a portion of viewed media. This may be accomplished by a media guidance application identifying activities a user has planned, as well as respective times for which each of the plurality of activities was planned to be performed by the user. The media guidance application may filter the activities by determining which of the first plurality of activities has a corresponding respective time that is within a threshold period of time. The media guidance application may then identify characteristics of each filtered activity and of a media asset that the user is consuming at the present moment, and may compute whether the characteristics match. If the characteristics match, the media guidance application may generate for display a recommendation relating to the respective activity.

A wireless device is enabled to provide offers. The wireless device receives card data for a financial account card and stores the card data in a memory associated with the wireless device. Responsive to using the card data in a transaction at a first merchant location, the wireless device receives transaction line-item data from a computing system associated with the first merchant location. The wireless device determines merchant information for a second merchant location and determines an offer associated with the second merchant location based on the line-item data and the merchant information for the second merchant. The wireless device presents the offer when the wireless device is near the second merchant location.

Content selection based on connection information

Methods, systems, and apparatus include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium for providing content. A method includes: receiving a first request for an advertisement to be presented in a slot on a web resource that is to be displayed by an access device; identifying an advertisement to serve; determining an amount of time required to deliver the advertisement to the access device including determining a connection speed; storing connection information including at least the connection speed; subsequent to the storing, receiving a second request for a second advertisement from the access device; using the stored connection information to determine one or more of an advertisement eligibility, an advertisement type, or an advertisement size, including selecting a second advertisement responsive to the second request that meets at least one of the determined eligibility, size or type; and providing the second advertisement responsive to the second request.

Marketing Campaign Selection Using Local Environmental Sensors

Marketing campaign selection using local environmental sensors is described. In one or more implementations, sensor data is received from an environmental sensor disposed proximal to a physical store describing a physical environment of the store. A marketing campaign is selected and sent for exposure to customers of the store based on the received sensor data.
