In one aspect, a method includes receiving video content comprising a first data portion comprising parameters that control a visual appearance of frames of video content presented by a content-presentation device. The content-presentation device is communicatively coupled to a light unit that is (i) present in a viewing area of the content-presentation device and (ii) configured to provide ambient light in the viewing area. The method also includes extracting, from the received video content, a second data portion, separate from the first data portion, specifying one or more light control parameters that a controller associated with the light unit is configured to interpret as instructions for controlling the light unit. The method also includes transmitting the extracted second data portion to the controller to facilitate the controller controlling the light unit according to the specified one or more light control parameters.

An artificial intelligence device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may receive voice data corresponding to viewing information and a search command from a display device, convert the received voice data into text data, obtain a first query indicating intention of the converted text data, convert the first query into a second query based on the viewing information, obtain a search result corresponding to the converted second, and transmit the obtained search result to the display device.

An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes a voice receiver, a communication interface, and a processor configured to, based on a user voice being obtained through the voice receiver, identify a mobile apparatus having a user account corresponding to the user voice from among at least one mobile apparatus communicably connected to the electronic apparatus through the communication interface, and transmit a control signal corresponding to the user voice to the identified mobile apparatus through the communication interface.

Systems and methods for a media content system. A media content provider includes storage for storing and serving video content to subscribers. The media content provider records and or otherwise stores video content from around the world. The system includes display devices configured to identify and tailor content to multiple individual users. Each user may have individual settings which provide for a customized viewing environment and experience. The system is configured to identify users of the system in order to tailor the content as appropriate. In addition, identification of users allows for the identification of the subscription content that corresponds to the user. Based upon identification of a user and corresponding subscription, the user's subscription content may be streamed to any location. In this manner, the users subscribed content may follow the user from home to a friend's house, or elsewhere.

A system for providing a customized video producing service using a cloud based voice combination of the present invention comprises a customized video production service providing server including: a user terminal that is input and uploads utterance of a user by voice data, selects any one category among at least one type of category to select content including an image or a video, selects a subtitle or background music, and plays a customized video including the content, the uploaded voice data, and the subtitle or background music; a database unit classifying and storing text, image, video, and background music by the at least one type of category; an upload unit receiving the voice data corresponding to the utterance of the user uploaded from the user terminal; a conversion unit that converts the uploaded voice data into text data using STT (Speech to Text) and stores the converted text data; a provision unit that provides an image or video previously mapped and stored in the selected category to the user terminal when any one category among the at least one type of category is selected from the user terminal; a creation unit that creates the customized video including the content, the uploaded voice, and the subtitles or background music when receiving subtitle data or selection of background music from the user terminal by the user terminal's selection of the subtitle or background music.

Systems and methods for presenting user-selectable options for parental control in response to detecting a triggering action by a user are disclosed. A system generates for output a first content item on a device. The system identifies a first user and a second user in proximity to the device and determines that a first gesture is performed by the first user wherein the first gesture is covering the eyes of the second user. In response to determining that the first gesture is performed, the system presents a selectable option for a user input such as (a) skipping a portion of the first content item; (b) lowering the volume; (c) removing the video of the first content item; or (d) presenting a second content item instead of presenting the first content item. In response to receiving a user input selecting the selectable option, the system performs an action corresponding to the selectable option.

A videophone system includes a processor which selectively sets a television (TV) broadcast program viewing function mode and videophone function mode in response to manual operation of a remote control, a decoder which performs, in the TV program view mode, a TV program-use decode function for decoding a broadcast program signal received from a TV tuner to thereby display it on a display screen while producing audio sounds by loudspeakers and which performs, in the videophone function mode a videophone-use decode function for decoding a videophone signal received from a distant party to thereby display on the screen an image of the distant party using the screen and speakers, and an encoder which performs a videophone-use encode function for encoding a video signal from a camera and a voice signal from a microphone to generate a videophone signal, which is sent to the distant party via a network.

A system and method for facilitating communication between an assisted user (AU) and a hearing user (HU) includes receiving an HU voice signal as the AU and HU participate in a call using AU and HU communication devices, transcribing HU voice signal segments into verbatim caption segments, processing each verbatim caption segment to identify an intended communication (IC) intended by the HU upon uttering an associated one of the HU voice signal segments, for at least a portion of the HU voice signal segments (i) using an associated IC to generate an enhanced caption different than the associated verbatim caption, (ii) for each of a first subset of the HU voice signal segments, presenting the verbatim captions via the AU communication device display for consumption, and (iii) for each of a second subset of the HU voice signal segments, presenting enhanced captions via the AU communication device display for consumption.

A method, set-top box, and non-transitory computer readable medium are disclosed for presentation of audiovisual content with closed captions. The method includes receiving, via an input device interfaced with the electronic device, an instruction requesting a replay of previously viewed video content with closed captioning; sending, to the display device interfaced with the electronic device, one or more thumbnail images of the previously viewed video content to be displayed on the display device; receiving, via the input device interfaced with the electronic device, one of the one or more thumbnail images of the previously viewed video content being selected for replay of the previously viewed video content; and sending, to the display device interfaced with the electronic device, closed captioning with the previously viewed video content starting at a video frame corresponding to the one of the one or more thumbnails of the previously viewed video content selected for replay.

Provided is an information processing device configured to determine whether to perform modification to a detail of part of not-yet-viewed-and-listened-to content for a user, on the basis of a reaction of the user to viewed-and-listened-to content.
