Controlling Power Levels Of Electronic Devices Through User Interaction
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method for controlling power to a device in a multimedia system comprising:
- receiving data relating to a first user interaction with a device;
determining if the first user interaction corresponds to a user intent to interact with the device;
setting a power level for the device based on the first user interaction;
receiving data relating to a second user interaction with the device;
altering the power level for the device based on the second user interaction, to generate an altered power level for the device; and
activating the device for the user, based on the altered power level.

Abstract
A processor-implemented method, system and computer readable medium for intelligently controlling the power level of an electronic device in a multimedia system based on user intent, is provided. The method includes receiving data relating to a first user interaction with a device in a multimedia system. The method includes determining if the first user interaction corresponds to a user'"'"'s intent to interact with the device. The method then includes setting a power level for the device based on the first user interaction. The method further includes receiving data relating to a second user interaction with the device. The method then includes altering the power level of the device based on the second user interaction to activate the device for the user.

11. A multimedia system, comprising:
-
a capture device, wherein the capture device detects a user'"'"'s presence in a field of view; and a computing environment in communication with the capture device and one or more devices in the multimedia system, wherein the computing environment includes a processing module that includes instructions to; receive data relating to a first user interaction from the capture device; set a power level for the computing environment based on the first user interaction; receive data relating to a second user interaction from the capture device; alter the power level for the computing environment based on the second user interaction, to generate an altered power level for the computing environment; and activate the computing environment for the user, based on the altered power level. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
