Media sequencing method to provide location-relevant entertainment
Systems, methods, and computer-program products are described for determining current location information which includes determining whether an object is moving by comparing the current location information with previous location information. Future location information is calculated and a point of interest is filtered using the future location information. A media asset is then matched to the filtered point of interest and a current score is determined for the matched media asset. Determining a current score includes determining a window in which the matched media asset is geographically relevant to the future location information, and updating the matched media asset score when the future location information changes. An ordered playlist is dynamically generated according to the future location information by repeatedly prioritizing and sequencing matched media assets according to the current score for each matched media asset, and matched media assets are played or displayed in the ordered playlist.
1 . A computer-implemented method, comprising:
determining a route;
predicting a future play window along the determined route, wherein a future play window determines when geo-relevant content is playable;
caching geo-relevant content associated with one or more points within the predicted future play window;

determining a first line between the route and the point, wherein the intersection of the line and the route represents a minimum distance between the route and the point;
determining a second line and a third line between the route and the point, wherein the second line represents the start of a future play window, wherein the third line represents the end of the future play window;
determining whether the point is a qualifying point;
dynamically selecting geo-relevant content associated with the qualifying point;

a processor that executes the instructions, wherein execution of the instructions causes the processor to:
determining a route;
predicting a future play window along the determined route, wherein a future play window determines when geo-relevant content is playable;
caching geo-relevant content associated with one or more points within the predicted future play window;
selecting a point, wherein the point is a qualifying point when the point is within a future play window;
determining a first line between the route and the point, wherein the intersection of the line and the route represents a minimum distance between the route and the point;
determining a second line and a third line between the route and the point, wherein the second line represents the start of a future play window, wherein the third line represents the end of the future play window;
determining whether the point is a qualifying point;
dynamically selecting geo-relevant content associated with the qualifying point;
determining the downloadability of the geo-relevant content, wherein when the geo-relevant content is unavailable, the cached geo-relevant content is selected; and
transmitting the geo-relevant content or the cached geo-relevant content when the point is a qualifying point within the future play window.
10 . The system of claim 9 , wherein distance between a route and a point indicates when geo-relevant content may be played.
11 . The system of claim 9 , wherein qualifying points have greater visibility.
12 . The system of claim 9 , further comprising instructions, wherein execution of the instructions causes the processor to:
transmit a request for current location data, wherein when the request is received at a motion analysis module, the motion analysis module determines the current location data.
13 . The system of claim 9 , wherein when the geo-relevant content is received at a monitor associated with current location data, the geo-relevant content is displayed or played on the monitor.
14 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the geo-relevant content is a visual representation of a dynamic playlist of assets.
15 . The system of claim 9 , wherein a history is generated when the geo-relevant content is displayed or played.
16 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the geo-relevant content is continuously displayed or played.
17 . A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing thereon executable instructions that, as a result of being executed by one or more processors of a computer system, cause the computer system to:
determine a route;
predict a future play window along the determined route, wherein a future play window determines when geo-relevant content is playable;
cache geo-relevant content associated with one or more points within the predicted future play window;
select a point, wherein the point is a qualifying point when the point is within a future play window;
determine a first line between the route and the point, wherein the intersection of the line and the route represents a minimum distance between the route and the point;
determine a second line and a third line between the route and the point, wherein the second line represents the start of a future play window, wherein the third line represents the end of the future play window;
determine whether the point is a qualifying point;
dynamically select geo-relevant content associated with the qualifying point;
determine the downloadability of the geo-relevant content, wherein when the geo-relevant content is unavailable, the cached geo-relevant content is selected; and
transmit the geo-relevant content or the cached geo-relevant content when the point is a qualifying point within the future play window.
18 . The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein distance between a route and a point indicates when geo-relevant content may be played.
