1. A system comprising:

  • a content platform including,a content engine to broadcast content having a first processor and a first memory;

    a display device to display the content; and

    a transmitter device to transmit a synchronization signal, wherein the synchronization signal includes a transmitter identification and a timing parameter; and

    a user device including a receiver device to receive the synchronization signal, to utilize the transmitter identification to determine the identity of the content platform with respect to one or more other content platforms, and to utilize the timing parameter to synchronize with the content engine such that a synchronization signal from the content platform is received and a synchronization signal from the one or more other content platforms is disregarded to minimize interference due to synchronization information being transmitted from multiple sources.
