Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a controller to cause a people meter to emit a prompt for input of audience identification information at a first time and determine a first audience count based on the input, an audio detector to determine a second audience count based on signatures generated from audio data captured in the media environment, and a comparator to cause the people meter to not emit the prompt for at least a first time period after the first time when the first audience count is equal to the second audience count.

An electronic device, computer program product, and method enable selection and presentation of media content associated with a person identified in a monitored space. The electronic device includes a device interface that is communicatively coupled to a media output device that presents media content in the monitored area. A controller of the electronic device is communicatively coupled to sensor(s) and the media output device. The controller presents a default selection of media content on the media output device. The controller monitors the sensor(s) to detect a presence of a person within or approaching the monitored area. The controller identifies the person. The controller selects, from among a plurality of available media content, media content that is associated with the identified person. The controller presents the selected media content on the media output device.

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.

This disclosure can provide a display device and a display method. The display device includes at least one camera configured to capture an environmental scenario image; a display configured to display a user interface; a controller in communicated with the display, configured to receive a command, input by a user, for obtaining a content recommendation resource associated with content currently displayed in the user interface; determine whether an application corresponding to the content currently displayed in the user interface is an application invoking the at least one camera, and if yes, display a first user interface, where the first user interface displays a first image captured by the at least one camera.

A system includes one or more sensors to detect one or more properties for a current user wearing a head-mountable display (HMD), control circuitry to select a user profile from a plurality of stored user profiles in dependence upon one or more of the detected properties, where each stored user profile is associated with a respective user and includes data indicative of one or more reference properties for the respective user, where the selected user profile includes data indicative of at least one reference property that is substantially the same as at least one of the one or more of the detected properties, and processing circuitry to generate at least one of audio and video content for output by the HMD in dependence upon the selected user profile and in response to the selection of the user profile.

At least a main area and a candidate area are provided on a display screen of a display device, and a display control unit that causes content displayed in the candidate area when reproduction of content displayed in the main area ends to be displayed in the main area, and a detection unit that detects a person from a captured image of at least a place where the display screen is visually recognizable are included, wherein the display control unit changes the content displayed in the candidate area depending on the person during reproduction of the content displayed in the main area.

Systems and methods are described herein for a media guidance application to determine that a user has switched away from a source transmitting a media asset with which the user was engaged and detect, while the user is switched away from the source, that secondary content transmitted by the source during a break of playback of the media asset relates to the media asset. In response to detecting that the secondary content relates to the media asset, the media guidance application may access a database to determine whether the secondary content specifically corresponds to the media asset, and, in response to determining that the secondary content specifically corresponds to the media asset, the media guidance application may generate for display the secondary content to the user.

Systems and methods are described for power control in a media receiver device having a plurality of electronic components, using a trained model. Input signals are received from at least one electronic component. An alertness state of the device is determined using a machine learning based determiner trained to process the received input signals and predict a subsequent alertness state identifying at least one additional component or device. Power consumption by the identified components and devices is controlled based on the predicted alertness state.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to identify user presence to a meter. An example apparatus includes memory, instructions, and at least one hardware processor to execute the instructions to at least: obtain presence information from a configuration device, the configuration device separate from the apparatus, the presence information indicating that user is present at the apparatus; verify the presence information matches user information, the user information stored in a memory of the apparatus; cause a confirmation prompt to be displayed on the configuration device, the confirmation prompt to indicate the presence information was obtained by the apparatus; and store the presence information in memory.

Provided are a display apparatus and a person recognition and presentation method. The display apparatus includes a display and a controller that is in communication with the display. The controller is configured to: associated information of a display interface of the display and generate a scenario image for recognition in response to a user command; obtain facial feature information for recognition in the scenario image; obtain similar facial feature information when a matching confidence level of pre-stored facial feature information in a database with the facial feature information for recognition does not exceed a preset confidence level; obtain average-person recognition data; generate a sharing control uniquely matching with the facial feature information for recognition; and control the display to present the average-person recognition data and the sharing control on a current display interface.
