A smart mirror can show live or recorded streaming video of an instructor performing a workout in a package that is attractive and unobtrusive enough to hang in a living room. The smart mirror includes a mirror surface with a fully reflecting section and a partially reflecting section. A display behind the partially reflecting section shows the video when the smart mirror is on and is almost invisible when the smart mirror is off. The smart mirror also has a speaker, a microphone, and a camera to enable a user to view the video content and interact with the instructor. The smart mirror may connect to the user's smart phone, a peripheral device (e.g., a Bluetooth speaker) to augment user experience, a biometric sensor to provide biometric data to assess user performance, and/or a network router to connect the smart mirror to a content provider, an instructor, and/or other users.

There is included a method and apparatus comprising computer code configured to cause a processor or processors to perform providing a media presentation description (MPD) event and media segments of video content to be streamed to a client, controlling the client to provide a user interface based on the MPD event and comprising a plurality of selection choices and interactive data for each of the selection choices, and updating MPD data based on at least one selection from the selection choices through the user interface.

The present disclosure relates to an image display apparatus and an operating method thereof. The image display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a display; a network interface unit that performs communication through a network; and a controller, wherein the controller generates data for a screen output through the display, when a preset user input is received while a first content is output through the display, obtains data, which corresponds to data of the screen, that is related to an object included in the screen, from a first server through the network interface unit, determines at least one first object related to a position corresponding to the user input, among object included in the screen, based on the data that is related to the object, and outputs a user interface (UI) for the at least one first object through the display. Various other embodiments are possible.

A method of presenting media content is disclosed. A plurality of assets is received at a mobile device comprising a display and an orientation sensor. The plurality of assets comprises a first video asset associated with a first aspect ratio, and a second video asset associated with a second aspect ratio, different from the first aspect ratio. A desired aspect ratio is determined based on an output of the orientation sensor. In accordance with a determination that the desired aspect ratio is closer to the first aspect ratio than to the second aspect ratio, the first video asset is selected. In accordance with a determination that the desired aspect ratio is closer to the second aspect ratio than to the first aspect ratio, the second video asset is selected. The selected video is presented at the desired aspect ratio via the display.

Devices, computer-readable media, and methods for presenting segments of at least one video program in accordance with a definition document are disclosed. For example, a processor may load a definition document for at least one video program. The definition document may specify segments of the at least one video program for presentation and further specify segment types for the segments. The segment types may identify whether a segment is to include video content, include audio content, or include both video and audio content. The processor may further obtain the at least one video program, present a first segment of the at least one video program in accordance with the definition document, and present a second segment of the plurality of segments of the at least one video program in accordance with the definition document.

An electronic device for providing graphic data based on a voice, and an operation method therefor are provided. The electronic device includes a display, and a processor, and the processor is configured to obtain at least one keyword from a voice signal related to a plurality of images, determine at least one graphic data corresponding to the at least one keyword, select at least one of the plurality of images, based on a point in time at which a voice corresponding to a keyword that corresponds to the determined graphic data is output, and perform control so as to apply the determined graphic data to the at least one selected image.

Techniques for user state for user image in media content are described and are implementable to enable a user state of a user to be determined and to control whether a user image is included in media content based on the user state. Generally, the described implementations enable different user states to be defined and utilized to control inclusion of user images with media content.

Methods, devices, and systems for segmenting and annotating videos for analysis are disclosed. A user identifies specific moments of the video that provide a teachable moment. A pre-context and a post-context portion of the video surrounding the identified moment are used to create a tile video. One or more tile videos are compiled in a user-defined order to generate a weave video with a specific focus or theme. The generated weave video is shared with one or more users and can be annotated to facilitate teaching and/or discussion.

A smart mirror can show live or recorded streaming video of an instructor performing a workout in a package that is attractive and unobtrusive enough to hang in a living room. The smart mirror includes a mirror surface with a fully reflecting section and a partially reflecting section. A display behind the partially reflecting section shows the video when the smart mirror is on and is almost invisible when the smart mirror is off. The smart mirror also has a speaker, a microphone, and a camera to enable a user to view the video content and interact with the instructor. The smart mirror may connect to the user's smart phone, a peripheral device (e.g., a Bluetooth speaker) to augment user experience, a biometric sensor to provide biometric data to assess user performance, and/or a network router to connect the smart mirror to a content provider, an instructor, and/or other users.

A method and a system for receiving a user's selection of a content, retrieving data about the content, tracking content consumption, launching a reactive module based on input from the user, registering a timestamped response of the user, the response comprising a graphic symbol is provided. The method may be further comprise receiving content-retrieving information from a second user, searching contents to identify a candidate for the second user's consumption, receiving a selection of a content from the candidate, tracking a position of the content that is selected and being consumed by the second user, launching the reactive module on a second client device based on input from the second user. The virtual platform provides an electronic venue of dynamic communications for content consumers, where users experience pseudo-realtime interactions by seeing the virtual platform's reconstruction of other users' responses that shows reacting users' emotional status.
