Abstract

A method of guiding perspectives in a multi-perspective content delivery system. The method includes receiving profile data associated with an end-user multi-perspective content consumption device and identifying a preference for content based upon the profile data. Multi-perspective content is transmitted to a device associated with the first profile data, the multi-perspective content representing a first perspective of a plurality of time-coincident VR perspectives. The VR system determines whether the first perspective correlates with the preference for content by at least a predetermined amount. In response to determining that the first perspective does not correlate with the preference for content by at least the predetermined amount, determining a second perspective of the plurality of perspectives that correlates to a greater degree with the preference for content than the first perspective, and transmitting from the end-user device a cue for recommending a change in perspective to the second perspective.

Claims (42)

1. A multi-perspective content delivery system, the multi-perspective content delivery system comprising one or more processors programmed with instructions to cause the one or more processors to perform:

receiving first profile data;

identifying a preference for content based upon the first profile data;

transmitting multi-perspective content to a device associated with the first profile data, the multi-perspective content representing a first perspective of a plurality of time-coincident perspectives;

determining whether the first perspective correlates with the preference for content by at least a predetermined amount; and

in response to determining that the first perspective does not correlate with the preference for content by at least the predetermined amount:

determining a second perspective of the plurality of time-coincident perspectives that correlates to a greater degree with the preference for content than the first perspective; and

transmitting to the device a first cue for recommending a change in perspective to the second perspective.

2. The multi-perspective content delivery system of claim 1 , wherein the preferences for content represent one or more genres of content and wherein determining whether the first perspective correlates with the preference for content by at least a predetermined amount comprises comparing the preferences for one or more genres with one or more genres associated with the first perspective.

3. The multi-perspective content delivery system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more genres comprise at least one of action, violence, romance, comedy, mystery, science fiction, or drama.

4. The multi-perspective content delivery system of claim 1 , wherein the first profile data represents content usage activity of at least one of virtual reality content, streaming content, internet browsing, or social media.

5. The multi-perspective content delivery system of claim 1 , wherein the first cue for recommending a change in perspective comprises at least one of sound, visual, or haptic feedback.

6. The multi-perspective content delivery system of claim 1 , wherein the first cue is transmitted to be integrated within the first perspective.

7. The multi-perspective content delivery system of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of time-coincident perspectives is a center point perspective representing a default perspective.

8. The multi-perspective content delivery system of claim 7 , wherein the one or more processors are further programmed with instructions to cause the one or more processors to perform:

determining that particular content of the center point perspective supersedes the preferences for content; and

transmitting a second cue within the multi-perspective content for recommending a change in perspective to the superseding center point perspective.

9. The multi-perspective content delivery system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further programmed with instructions to cause the one or more processors to cause the device to display the second perspective in response to determining that the first perspective does not correlate with the preference for content by at least the predetermined amount.

10. The multi-perspective content delivery system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further programmed with instructions to cause the one or more processors to, in response to determining that the first perspective does not correlate with the preference for content by at least the predetermined amount:

identify at least one portion of the first perspective that does not correlate with the preference for content; and

at least one of remove, modify, or substitute the at least one portion.

11. A method for guiding perspectives in a multi-perspective content delivery system, the method comprising:

receiving first profile data;

identifying a preference for content based upon the first profile data;

transmitting multi-perspective content to a device associated with the first profile data, the multi-perspective content representing a first perspective of a plurality of time-coincident perspectives;

determining whether the first perspective correlates with the preference for content by at least a predetermined amount; and

in response to determining that the first perspective does not correlate with the preference for content by at least the predetermined amount:

determining a second perspective of the plurality of time-coincident perspectives that correlates to a greater degree with the preference for content than the first perspective; and

transmitting from the device a first cue for recommending a change in perspective to the second perspective.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the preferences for content represent one or more genres of content and wherein determining whether the first perspective correlates with the preference for content by at least a predetermined amount comprises comparing the preferences for one or more genres with one or more genres associated with the first perspective.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the one or more genres comprise at least one of action, violence, romance, comedy, mystery, science fiction, or drama.

14. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first profile data represents content usage activity of at least one of multi-perspective content, streaming content, internet browsing, or social media.

15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first cue for recommending a change in perspective comprises at least one of sound, visual, or haptic feedback.

16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first cue is transmitted to be integrated within the first perspective.

17. The method of claim 11 , wherein at least one of the plurality of time-coincident perspectives is a center point perspective representing a default perspective.

18. The method of claim 17 , further comprising:

determining that particular content of the center point perspective supersedes the preferences for content; and

transmitting a second cue within the multi-perspective content for recommending a change in perspective to the superseding center point perspective.

19. The method of claim 11 , further comprising, in response to determining that the first perspective does not correlate with the preference for content by at least the predetermined amount, causing the device to display the second perspective.

20. The method of claim 11 , further comprising, in response to determining that the first perspective does not correlate with the preference for content by at least the predetermined amount:

identifying at least one portion of the first perspective that does not correlate with the preference for content; and

at least one of removing, modifying, or substituting the at least one portion.
