Abstract

Systems and methods are described for a media guidance application (e.g., implemented on a user device) that allows users to select any arbitrary position in a virtual reality environment from where to view the virtual reality content and changes a user’s perspective based on the selected position.

Claims (45)

1 - 51 . (canceled)

52 . A computer-implemented method comprising:

receiving a request from a first user to access a video-based media asset;

providing the video-based media asset to the first user;

receiving a live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset;

receiving a request from a second user to access the video-based media asset; and

generating for simultaneous display to the second user the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset.

53 . The method of claim 52 , further comprising:

receiving a live video feed of a third user reacting to the video-based media asset; and

generating for simultaneous display to the second user, with the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset, the live video feed of the third user reacting to the video-based media asset.

54 . The method of claim 53 , wherein at least one of a user profile of the first user or a user profile of the third user is related to a user profile of the second user.

55 . The method of claim 52 , further comprising:

receiving input to transmit a message from the second user to the first user; and

outputting the message while the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user are being simultaneously generated for display.

56 . The method of claim 52 , wherein generating for simultaneous display to the second user the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset comprises overlaying the live video feed on a portion of the video-based media asset.

57 . The method of claim 52 , wherein the video-based media asset is a video game.

58 . The method of claim 52 , wherein the video-based media asset is a movie, a television show, or a sporting event.

59 . The method of claim 52 , further comprising:

generating for simultaneous display to the second user, with the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset, a title of the video-based media asset.

60 . The method of claim 52 , further comprising:

generating for simultaneous display to the second user, with the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset, a user name of a user profile of the first user.

61 . The method of claim 52 , wherein the video-based media asset is a virtual reality media asset.

62 . A computer-implemented system comprising:

memory;

control circuitry configured to:

receive a request from a first user to access a video-based media asset, wherein a user profile of the first user is stored in the memory;

provide the video-based media asset to the first user;

receive a live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset;

receive a request from a second user to access the video-based media asset; and

generate for simultaneous display to the second user the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset.

63 . The system of claim 62 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

receive a live video feed of a third user reacting to the video-based media asset; and

generate for simultaneous display to the second user, with the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset, the live video feed of the third user reacting to the video-based media asset.

64 . The system of claim 63 , wherein at least one of the user profile of the first user or a user profile of the third user is related to a user profile of the second user.

65 . The system of claim 62 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

receive input to transmit a message from the second user to the first user; and

output the message while the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user are being simultaneously generated for display.

66 . The system of claim 62 , wherein the control circuitry is configured to generate for simultaneous display to the second user the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset by overlaying the live video feed on a portion of the video-based media asset.

67 . The system of claim 62 , wherein the video-based media asset is a video game.

68 . The system of claim 62 , wherein the video-based media asset is a movie, a television show, or a sporting event.

69 . The system of claim 62 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

generate for simultaneous display to the second user, with the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset, a title of the video-based media asset.

70 . The system of claim 62 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

generate for simultaneous display to the second user, with the video-based media asset and the live video feed of the first user reacting to the video-based media asset, a user name of a user profile of the first user.

71 . The system of claim 62 , wherein the video-based media asset is a virtual reality media asset.
