Abstract

Technologies are generally described for providing real-time or recorded content along with customized content augmentation stream to enhance a user's experience of the content. A content provider may receive captured feedback from multiple users and select and aggregate a subset of the received feedback based on preferences and emotional state of a user to be presented with the content. The aggregated feedbacks may be customized for the user and delivered as content augmentation stream along with the content to the user.

Claims (45)

1 - 30 . (canceled)

31 . A system for delivery of augmented content comprising:

a user sub-system comprising:

a presentation module configured to present content and a content augmentation stream through two or more channels;

a feedback capture module configured to capture user feedback to the presented content; and

a content delivery sub-system comprising one or more computing devices in a content delivery network, the content delivery sub-system configured to:

receive the captured user feedback and provide to a content processing sub-system; and

receive the presented content and the content augmentation stream from the content processing sub-system and deliver to the user sub-system, wherein the content processing sub-system configured to:

generate or capture the presented content;

generate the content augmentation stream from a plurality of captured user feedbacks, wherein the content augmentation stream is customized for a particular user by selecting the plurality of captured user feedbacks aligned to the particular; and

provide the presented content and the content augmentation stream to the content delivery sub-system for delivery to the user sub-system.

32 . The system of claim 31 , wherein the two or more channels include one or more of an audio channel, a visual channel, or a haptic channel.

33 . The system of claim 31 , wherein the content processing sub-system is configured to generate the content augmentation stream from the plurality of captured user feedbacks through:

selection of a group of users based on one or more of user profiles, user feedbacks, or user locations;

aggregation of captured user feedback from the selected group of users; and

generation of the content augmentation stream using the aggregated user feedback from the selected group of users.

34 . The system of claim 33 , wherein the content processing sub-system is configured to select the group of users based on an alignment of their user feedbacks with the user feedback of the particular user.

35 . The system of claim 31 , wherein the content processing sub-system is configured to customize the content augmentation stream to enhance an emotional state of the particular user.

36 . The system of claim 31 , wherein the content processing sub-system is configured to customize the content augmentation stream based on a preference of the particular user.

37 . The system of claim 31 , wherein one or both of the feedback capture module or the content processing sub-system are further configured to:

anonymize one or more portions of the captured user feedback to preserve user privacy.

38 . The system of claim 31 , wherein the content processing sub-system is configured to generate or capture the presented content through capture of a live event, retrieval of a pre-recorded event, or creation of the content.

39 . The system of claim 31 , wherein the feedback capture module is configured to capture the user feedback through one or more sensors communicatively coupled to the user sub-system.

40 . The system of claim 39 , wherein the one or more sensors comprise: a microphone, a pressure sensor, a camera, a light sensor, or a body sensor.

41 . The system of claim 31 , wherein the user sub-system comprises one or more of: a display device, a speaker, a lighting source, or a tactile device.

42 . The system of claim 31 , wherein the user sub-system is part of: a wall-mount display device, a desktop computer, a handheld computer, a wearable computer, a vehicle-mount computer, or augmented reality (AR) glasses.

43 . A method to provide a content augmentation stream, the method comprising:

receiving generated or captured content to be presented;

receiving captured user feedback from a plurality of users;

generating a content augmentation stream from the captured user feedback;

customizing the content augmentation stream for a particular user by selecting a plurality of captured user feedbacks aligned to the feedback of the particular user; and

providing the content and the content augmentation stream to be presented to the particular user.

44 . The method of claim 43 , wherein the two or more channels include one or more of an audio channel, a visual channel, or a haptic channel.

45 . The method of claim 43 , wherein generating the content augmentation stream from the captured user feedback comprises:

selecting a group of users based on one or more of user profiles, user feedbacks, or user locations;

aggregating the captured user feedback from the selected group of users; and

generating the content augmentation stream using the aggregated user feedback from the selected group of users.

46 . The method of claim 45 , wherein selecting the group of users comprises selecting the group of users further based on an alignment of their user feedback with a user feedback of the particular user.

47 . The method of claim 43 , further comprising:

customizing the content augmentation stream to enhance an emotional state of the particular user.

48 . The method of claim 43 , further comprising:

customizing the content augmentation stream based on a preference of the particular user.

49 . The method of claim 43 , further comprising:

anonymizing one or more portions of the captured user feedback to preserve user privacy.

50 . The method of claim 43 , wherein receiving the generated or captured content to be presented comprises receiving one or more of a captured live event, a retrieved pre-recorded event, or a created content.
