receive first image data that is associated with a first environment and second image data that is associated with a second environment, wherein the first environment includes a first media playback device and the second environment includes a second media playback device;

detect, at a given time from the received signal, that a viewer has moved from the first environment to the second environment during playback of a media content item on the first media playback device; and

causing the media content item to be presented on the second media playback device based on the given time in response to detecting that the viewer has moved from the first environment to the second environment during the playback of the media content item on the first media playback device.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the hardware processor is further configured to cause the first media device to power off.

3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the hardware processor is further configured to cause the media content item to no longer be presented by the first media device.

4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the hardware processor is further configured to associate with a first camera device and a second camera device, wherein the first image data is received from the first camera device and the second image data is received from the second camera device.

5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the hardware processor is further configured to:

detect that the viewer has moved from the second environment during playback of the media content item on the second media playback device;

associate a time parameter of the media content item that corresponds to the detection;

detect that the viewer has moved back into the second environment with the second media device; and

in response to the detection, cause the media content item to resume being presented by the second media device based on the associated time parameter.

6. The device of claim 1 , wherein the hardware processor is further configured to:

identify the viewer based on facial characteristics determined from the first image data; and

associate the viewer with an identifier based on the identification.

7. The device of claim 1 , wherein the hardware processor is further configured to:

in response to detecting that the viewer has moved from the first environment to the second environment, identify a plurality of media content items that have been partially viewed by the viewer;

cause an interface that presents selectable indications of the plurality of media content items to be presented on the second media device;

receive a selection of one of the indications of the plurality of media content items; and

cause one of the plurality of media content items that corresponds to the selected indication to be presented by the second media device.

8. A method for transitioning content, the method comprising:

receiving, using a hardware processor, first image data that is associated with a first environment and second image data that is associated with a second environment, wherein the first environment includes a first media playback device and the second environment includes a second media playback device;

detecting, using the hardware processor, at a given time from the received signal, that a viewer has moved from the first environment to the second environment during playback of a media content item on the first media playback device; and

causing, using the hardware processor, the media content item to be presented on the second media playback device based on the given time in response to detecting that the viewer has moved from the first environment to the second environment during the playback of the media content item on the first media playback device.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising causing the first media device to power off.

10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising causing the media content item to no longer be presented by the first media device.

11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising associating with a first camera device and a second camera device, wherein the first image data is received from the first camera device and the second image data is received from the second camera device.

12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

detecting that the viewer has moved from the second environment during playback of the media content item on the second media playback device;

associating a time parameter of the media content item that corresponds to the detection;

detecting that the viewer has moved back into the second environment with the second media device; and

in response to the detection, causing the media content item to resume being presented by the second media device based on the associated time parameter.

13. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

identifying the viewer based on facial characteristics determined from the first image data; and

associating the viewer with an identifier based on the identification.

14. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

in response to detecting that the viewer has moved from the first environment to the second environment, identifying a plurality of media content items that have been partially viewed by the viewer;

causing an interface that presents selectable indications of the plurality of media content items to be presented on the second media device;

receiving a selection of one of the indications of the plurality of media content items; and

causing one of the plurality of media content items that corresponds to the selected indication to be presented by the second media device.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for transitioning content, the method comprising:

receiving first image data that is associated with a first environment and second image data that is associated with a second environment, wherein the first environment includes a first media playback device and the second environment includes a second media playback device;

detecting, at a given time from the received signal, that a viewer has moved from the first environment to the second environment during playback of a media content item on the first media playback device; and

causing the media content item to be presented on the second media playback device based on the given time in response to detecting that the viewer has moved from the first environment to the second environment during the playback of the media content item on the first media playback device.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises causing the first media device to power off.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises causing the media content item to no longer be presented by the first media device.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises associating with a first camera device and a second camera device, wherein the first image data is received from the first camera device and the second image data is received from the second camera device.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises:

detecting that the viewer has moved from the second environment during playback of the media content item on the second media playback device;

associating a time parameter of the media content item that corresponds to the detection;

detecting that the viewer has moved back into the second environment with the second media device; and

in response to the detection, causing the media content item to resume being presented by the second media device based on the associated time parameter.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises:

identifying the viewer based on facial characteristics determined from the first image data; and

associating the viewer with an identifier based on the identification.

21. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises:

in response to detecting that the viewer has moved from the first environment to the second environment, identifying a plurality of media content items that have been partially viewed by the viewer;

causing an interface that presents selectable indications of the plurality of media content items to be presented on the second media device;

receiving a selection of one of the indications of the plurality of media content items; and

causing one of the plurality of media content items that corresponds to the selected indication to be presented by the second media device.
