1. A computer-implemented method for interacting with a computing device, the method comprising:
- (a) detecting by an interactive device connected to a computing device at least one of a user'"'"'s presence, an item, and a movement;
(b) upon such detecting, beginning an interactive session with the computing device;
(c) operating the interactive device to exchange a first set of information;
(d) operating the interactive device by exchanging a second set of information in response to detecting the item held in proximity to the interactive device; and
(e) without manual intervention, repeating steps (c) and (d) to use the computing device until the interactive device ceases to detect automatically at least one of the item, movement, and the user'"'"'s presence.

Abstract
The present invention provides at least a method and system for collecting and using data with a computing device for a smart closet. With respect to the present invention, a computing device processes information from the interaction of a user with an interactive device such as a mirror or display. Information is relayed to the user to enable to the user to make informed decisions about the clothing to wear. The user interacts with the computing device using gesture recognition, voice inputs, motion recognition, or touch.

12. A computer-implemented method for using a room, the method comprising:
-
beginning a session with a computing device that is in communication with an interactive device;
populating a data store that is connected to the computing device with user preferences to build an inventory of useable data;
at a time not associated with the population of user preferences, beginning an interactive session with the computing device;
detecting information from the user operating the computing device at the interactive device, the interactive device detecting the information from the user over a communication channel;
storing the detected information in the data store to continue to build the inventory of useable data;
interacting with one or more computer programs operating in the computing device using the useable data to provide at least one of a service and a message to the user; and
displaying to the user at the interactive device at least one of the service and the message in a format pre-defined by the user to use the room. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)

26. A computer-implemented system for interacting with a computing device comprising:
-
at least a computing device operable to execute one or more computer software to receive user configuration preferences and to display a set of content;
a data store in communication with the computing device operable to store information generated from an operation of the computing device, and to build an inventory of accessible data;
an interactive device in communication with the computing device operable in one or more ways to detect at least one of a user'"'"'s presence, an item, and a movement, to exchange one or more sets of information between the user and the computing device, and to output at least the service and the message to the user; and
a plurality of links operable to interconnect the at least computing device, the data store, and the interactive device to facilitate the transfer of data.
