Systems and methods for performing an action in response to a change in status of an input device
Systems and methods are provided for performing an action in response to a change in status of an input device. A media item is generated for output at a computing device, and a change in status of an input device associated with the computing device is identified. An indication of the change in status of the input device is received, and, in response to receiving the indication, an action is performed based on the media item.
1. A method comprising:
generating, at a computing device, a media item for output;
providing for display, at a display device associated with the computing device, the media item;
identifying a threshold, wherein the threshold is based on a status of an input device over a period of time, and the input device is associated with the computing device;
identifying, based at least in part on information received from a sensor associated with the input device, a change in status of the input device that is greater than the threshold;
receiving an indication of the change in status of the input device; and
performing, in response to receiving the indication, an action based on the media item.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the media item is a video game and wherein performing the action further comprises pausing the video game and generating an advertisement for output.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein generating an advertisement for output further comprises altering an element of the video game based on the advertisement.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the media item is a video game;
the change in status of the input device is a first change in status; and
performing the action further comprises:
identifying a second change in status of the input device; and
generating a content item for output based on the video game gameplay between the first change in status and the second change in status.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the media item is a video game;
the change in status of the input device is a first change in status; and
performing the action further comprises:
identifying a second change in status of the input device; and
changing a status of a character of the video game between the first change in status and the second change in status.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sensor is one of an inertial measurement unit (IMU), an IR sensor, a laser sensor, or a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) sensor, and wherein identifying a change in status of the input device further comprises identifying a movement of the input device.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sensor is one of an inertial measurement unit (IMU), an IR sensor, a laser sensor, or a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) sensor, and wherein identifying a change in status of the input device further comprises identifying an absence of movement of the input device over a threshold period of time.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein performing the action further comprises:
generating a summary of a plurality of advertisements; and
generating the summary of the plurality of advertisements for output.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein performing the action further comprises:
identifying that an advertisement is being generated for output; and
generating a user interface element for output, the user interface element configured to enable input on the advertisement to be received.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
a user profile is associated with the computing device; and
performing the action further comprises generating an advertisement for output based on the user profile.
11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising identifying, based on the change in status, a time period for performing the action.
12. A system comprising:
a communication port;
a memory storing instructions; and
control circuitry communicably coupled to the memory and the communication port and configured to execute instructions to:
generate, at a computing device, a media item for output;
cause display, at a display device associated with the computing device, the media item′
identify a threshold, wherein the threshold is based on a status of an input device over a period of time, and the input device is associated with the computing device;
identify, based at least in part on information received from a sensor associated with the input device, a change in status of the input device that is greater than the threshold;
receive an indication of the change in status of the input device; and
perform, in response to receiving the indication, an action based on the media item.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the media item is a video game and wherein the control circuitry configured to perform the action is further configured to pause the video game and generate an advertisement for output.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the control circuitry configured to generate an advertisement for output is further configured to alter an element of the video game based on the advertisement.
15. The system of claim 12 , wherein:
the media item is a video game;
the change in status of the input device is a first change in status; and
the control circuitry configured to perform the action is further configured to:
identify a second change in status of the input device; and
generate a content item for output based on the video game gameplay between the first change in status and the second change in status.
16. The system of claim 12 , wherein:
the media item is a video game;
the change in status of the input device is a first change in status; and
the control circuitry configured to perform the action further is further configured to:
identify a second change in status of the input device; and
change a status of a character of the video game between the first change in status and the second change in status.
17. The system of claim 12 , wherein the sensor is one of an inertial measurement unit (IMU), an IR sensor, a laser sensor, or a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) sensor, and wherein the control circuitry configured to identify a change in status of the input device is further configured to identify a movement of the input device.
18. The system of claim 12 , wherein the sensor is one of an inertial measurement unit (IMU), an IR sensor, a laser sensor, or a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) sensor, and wherein the control circuitry configured to identify a change in status of the input device is further configured to identify an absence of movement of the input device over a threshold period of time.
19. The system of claim 12 , wherein the control circuitry configured to perform the action is further configured to:
generate a summary of a plurality of advertisements; and
generate the summary of the plurality of advertisements for output.
20. The system of claim 12 , wherein the control circuitry configured to perform the action is further configured to:
