Abstract

A unified experiential multimedia inducement and entertainment system, computer program and method for providing broadcasts of multimedia content from a plurality of providers to one or more users. The system, computer program and method provide for experience-based entertainment and inducement to individual users over one or more diverse communications medium, inducing the users to visit, frequent, or stay longer at a provider'"'"'s physical or virtual location.

Claims

1. A system for a priori providing a user profile of a partaker user to a provider where the partaker user is scheduled to visit a location of the provider, the system comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a multimedia content from the provider;

a determiner configured to determine a chit set corresponding to the multimedia content or the provider;

an aggregator configured to combine the multimedia content and the chit set to generate a streaming content;

a user communicator configured to send the streaming content to the partaker user, the user communicator being further configured to receive a chit selection from the partaker user;

a profiler configured to determine a chit on a basis of the chit selection and a user profile associated with the partaker user; and

a provider communicator configured to send a visit schedule message to the provider.

2. The system according to claim 1, further comprising:

a group assembler configured to receive user data from at least one user responding to a user solicitation event and generate a user group, including the user data; and

a selector configured to select the partaker user from the user group on a basis of the user profile.

3. The system according to claim 1, wherein

the multimedia content comprises at least one of a video content, an audio content, a text content and a control content and

the aggregator is further configured to link the chit set to a portion of the video content, the link being selectable by the user while sensing the streaming content to generate the chit selection.

4. The system according to claim 3, wherein the multimedia content further comprises a chit event and the chit event comprises a live broadcast from the location of the provider.

5. The system according to claim 1, wherein the provider communicator is further configured to send the visit schedule message to another provider, the another provider being located en route from a location of the partaker user to the location of the provider.

6. The system according to claim 1, further comprising a mobile transducer system, the mobile transducer system comprising:

an image pickup device configured to capture an image of an object;

a transducer configured to sense an ambient signal;

a display configured to display a message;

an input-output interface configured to receive data from the user; and

a driver configured to move the mobile transducer system on the basis of a control signal,

wherein the control signal is received from one of a manual control input or a robot control input.

7. The system according to claim 1, wherein the visit schedule message comprises at least one of:

a title of a live broadcast event;

a date and time of the chit event;

a name of the partaker user;

a location of the partaker user;

a route to be traveled by the partaker user;

a telephone number of the partaker user;

the chit selection of the partaker user;

or

the user profile of the partaker user.

8. The system according to claim 1, wherein the multimedia content is generated by a mobile transducer system, the mobile transducer system comprising:

a transducer configured to capture an image or a sound generated proximate to the partaker user; and

an input configured to receive data.

9. The system according to claim 1, wherein the user communicator is further configured to send a chit event schedule to the partaker user.

10. A method for a priori providing a user profile of a partaker user to a provider where the partaker user is scheduled to visit a location of the provider, the method comprising:

receiving a multimedia content from the provider;

determining a chit set corresponding to the multimedia content or the provider;

combining the multimedia content and the chit set to generate a streaming content;

sending the streaming content to the partaker user;

receiving a chit selection from the partaker user;

determining a chit on a basis of the chit selection and a user profile associated with the partaker user; and

sending a visit schedule message to the provider.

11. The method according to claim 10, further comprising:

receiving user data from at least one user responding to a user solicitation event to generate a user group, including the user data; and

selecting the partaker user from the user group on a basis of the user profile.

12. The method according to claim 10, wherein the multimedia content comprises at least one of a video content, an audio content, a text content and a control content.

13. The method according to claim 12, wherein the combining comprises linking the chit set to a portion of the video content, the linking being selectable by the user while sensing the streaming content to generate the chit selection.

14. The method according to claim 12, wherein the multimedia content further comprises a chit event and the chit event comprises a live broadcast from the location of the provider.

15. The method according to claim 10, further comprising:

receiving a request from the provider for delivery of a mobile transducer system;

determining a condition for use of the mobile transducer system by the provider; and

delivering the mobile transducer system to the provider.

16. The method according to claim 10, further comprising:

sending the visit schedule message to another provider, said another provider being located en route from a location of the partaker user to the location of the provider; and

sending a chit event schedule to the partaker user.

17. The method according to claim 10, wherein the visit schedule message comprises at least one of:

a title of a live broadcast event;

a date and time of the chit event;

a name of the partaker user;

a location of the partaker user;

a route to be traveled by the partaker user;

a telephone number of the partaker user;

the chit selection of the partaker user;

or

the user profile of the partaker user; and

wherein the multimedia content is generated by a mobile transducer system, the mobile transducer system comprising;

a transducer configured to capture an image or a sound generated proximate to the partaker user; and

an input configured to receive data.

18. A computer readable medium including a program that when executed, causes a computer to a priori provide a user profile of a partaker user to a provider where the partaker user is scheduled to visit a location of the provider, the computer readable medium comprising:

a receiver code section configured to cause, when executed, receiving a multimedia content from the provider;

a determiner code section configured to cause, when executed, determining a chit set corresponding to the multimedia content or the provider;

an aggregator code section configured to cause, when executed, combining the multimedia content and the chit set to generate a streaming content;

a user communicator code section configured to cause, when executed, sending the streaming content to the partaker user, the communication being further configured to receive a chit selection from the partaker user;

a profiler code section configured to cause, when executed, determining a chit on a basis of the chit selection and a user profile associated with the partaker user; and

a provider communicator code section configured to cause, when executed, sending a visit schedule message to the provider.

19. The computer readable medium according to claim 18, further comprising:

a group assembler code section configured to cause, when executed, receiving user data from at least one user responding to a user solicitation event and generate a user group, including the user data; and

a selector code section configured to cause, when executed, selecting the partaker user from the user group on a basis of the user profile.

20. The computer readable medium according to claim 18, further comprising:

a request receiving code section configured to cause, when executed, receiving a request from the provider for delivery of a mobile transducer system;

a condition determining code section configured to cause, when executed, determining a condition for use of the mobile transducer system by the provider; and

a delivering code section configured to cause, when executed, delivering the mobile transducer system to the provider.
