METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRESENTING CONTENT
First Claim
1. A method of providing content to a user, the method including, in a processing system:
- a) using sensor data from multiple sensors associated with the user to determine a trigger event;
b) determining content associated with the trigger event; and
,c) causing the content to be presented to the user.

Abstract
A method and apparatus is disclosed for providing content to a user. The method includes using sensor data from multiple sensors associated with the user to determine a trigger event, determining content associated with the trigger event, and causing the content to be presented to the user. A trigger rule is created which defines the trigger event, representing when content is to be presented. A number of different types of event criteria may be defined, such as position event criteria, movement event criteria, timing or duration criteria, time and/or date criteria, heart rate criteria, or the like, allowing each of the event criteria to be associated with a respective type of sensor. Also disclosed is a method and apparatus for charging for providing content to a user.

24. A method of providing content to a user, the method including, in a computer system:
-
a) receiving, from a processing system, a request for content; and
,b) providing content to the processing system in response to the request to thereby allow the processing system to; i) use sensor data from multiple sensors associated with the user to determine a trigger event; ii) determine content associated with the trigger event; and
,iii) cause the content to be presented to the user.

31. A method of providing content to a user, the method including, in a system:
-
a) causing a trigger rule to be defined representing a trigger event, the trigger rule representing conditions that must be met by data from each of multiple sensors for a trigger event to occur; and
,b) causing an association between content and the trigger rule to be created, such that the content can be presented when a trigger event occurs. - View Dependent Claims (41, 42)
