Method and apparatus for determining supplementary parameters of electronic content
Systems and methods for determining parameters of devices that may have influenced generated content, and appending values of these parameters to the generated content for the benefit of other users. Devices near the location at which the content was generated may be selected, and parameters of these devices may be retrieved. These device parameters are often relevant to the generated content. Accordingly, the retrieved parameter values may be appended to the generated content for transmission along with the content. In this manner, other users may view both the content and the parameters of nearby devices that may have influenced the setting of the content, assisting users in, for example, recreating the content or its subject matter for themselves.
1. A method comprising:
capturing, by a content generation device, electronic digital content comprising one or more of image, video, or audio signal;
in response to capturing the electronic digital content:
determining one or more electronic devices proximate to the content generation device whose sensor detects one or more parameters comprising a lighting condition or an audio condition affecting the image, video or audio signal; and
storing the electronic digital content with metadata comprising the one or more parameters.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting the electronic digital content and the metadata comprising the one or more parameters of the one or more electronic devices proximate to the content generation device to one or more additional electronic devices.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the transmitting further comprises sharing the electronic digital content and the associated one or more parameters of the one or more electronic devices as a social media post.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more parameters comprise power levels corresponding to one or more illumination sources.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying the one or more electronic devices proximate to the content generation device comprises determining that the one or more electronic devices are a subject of the electronic digital content captured by the content generation device.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining a context of the electronic digital content and selecting the one or more parameters of the one or more electronic devices based, at least in part, on the context.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein determining the context comprises using one or more machine learning models.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more parameters comprise one or more environmental parameters measured by one or more sensors when the electronic digital content was captured.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the electronic digital content and the one or more parameters of the one or more electronic devices in a database.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying the one or more electronic devices proximate to the content generation device comprises determining that the one or more electronic devices share a same network with the content generation device.
11. A system comprising:
a storage device;
control circuitry configured to
capture, by a content generation device, electronic digital content comprising one or more of image, video, or audio signal;
in response to capturing the electronic digital content, determine one or more electronic devices proximate to the content generation device whose sensor detects one or more parameters comprising a lighting condition or an audio condition affecting the image, video or audio signal;
store the electronic digital content with metadata comprising the one or more parameters.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to transmit the electronic digital content and the metadata comprising the one or more parameters of the one or more electronic devices proximate to the content generation device to one or more additional electronic devices.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the transmitting further comprises sharing the electronic digital content and the associated one or more parameters of the one or more electronic devices as a social media post.
14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more parameters comprise power levels corresponding to one or more illumination sources.
15. The system of claim 11 , wherein identifying the one or more electronic devices proximate to the content generation device comprises determining that the one or more electronic devices are a subject of the electronic digital content captured by the content generation device.
16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to determine a context of the electronic digital content and selecting the one or more parameters of the one or more electronic devices based, at least in part, on the context.
17. The system of claim 16 , wherein determining the context comprises using one or more machine learning models.
18. The system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more parameters comprise one or more environmental parameters measured by one or more sensors when the electronic digital content was captured.
19. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to store the electronic digital content and the one or more parameters of the one or more electronic devices in a database.
20. The system of claim 11 , wherein identifying the one or more electronic devices proximate to the content generation device comprises determining that the one or more electronic devices share a same network with the content generation device.
