Abstract

A method and a device for recommending activities to at least one user are described. A detection of at least one first ongoing activity in a first location based on data measured by at least one sensor triggers the sending, to at least one terminal of said at least one user located in a second location, of at least one activity recommendation. The at least one activity recommendation is generated as a function of the at least one first activity, and at least one link between the at least one user and the at least one first activity.

Claims (36)

1 . A method for recommending activities to at least one user, the method comprising:

detecting at least one first ongoing activity in a first location based on data measured by at least one sensor, and

triggered by the detection of said at least one first ongoing activity, sending, to at least one terminal of said at least one user located in a second location, at least one activity recommendation generated as a function of:

said at least one first activity, and

at least one link between said at least one user and said at least one first activity.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said at least one activity recommendation is generated further as a function of a second detected activity being performed by said at least one user.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said at least one link comprises at least one link among:

a fixed link between said at least one user and at least one person associated with said at least one first activity, the fixed link being recorded in a database and being obtained based on an identifier of said at least one user and on an identifier of said at least one person; or

a dynamic link between said at least one user and said at least one first activity, the dynamic link being determined as a function of said at least one user and of said at least one first activity.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising sending, to a terminal of another user, another activity recommendation generated as a function of:

said at least one activity recommendation, and

a link between the other user and said at least one activity recommendation.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said at least one activity recommendation and information representative of said at least one first detected activity are sent to said at least one terminal of said at least one user.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said at least one activity recommendation is generated by a neural network.

7 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising updating parameters of the neural network based on a data indicating whether or not said at least one user has followed or not said at least one activity recommendation.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first location is a meeting room equipped with said at least one sensor.

9 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising obtaining said data measured by said at least one sensor, the obtained data being used to detect said at least one first activity.

10 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to implement the method of claim 1 .

11 . An activity recommendation device comprising a transmitter, the activity recommendation device configured to, upon detection of at least one first ongoing activity in a first location based on data measured by at least one sensor:

send, to at least one terminal of at least one user located in a second location, at least one activity recommendation generated as a function of:

said at least one first activity, and

at least one link between said at least one user and said at least one first activity.

12 . A system comprising:

an activity recommendation device comprising a transmitter, the activity recommendation configured to, upon detection of at least one first ongoing activity in a first location based on data measured by at least one sensor, send, to at least one terminal of at least one user located in a second location, at least one activity recommendation generated as a function of:

said at least one first activity, and

at least one link between said at least one user and said at least one first activity; and

said at least one terminal configured to receive, from the activity recommendation device, said at least one activity recommendation.

13 . The system of claim 12 , further comprising a set of at least one sensor configured to capture measured data and to communicate with said activity recommendation device.

14 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the set of at least one sensor comprises at least one sensor among:

a camera;

a microphone;

a network probe;

a pressure sensor;

a temperature sensor;

a depth sensor; or

a thermal camera.
