Abstract

A system and a method for generating an emotional profile of the user and deriving inference from the analytics of generated emotional profile is provided. The method involves sharing media content or online event in a connected environment; capturing user'"'"'s reaction to the said content or event; generating an emotional profile of the user to rate the media content or event; and sharing the emotional profile within the connected environment.

Claims

1. A system for generating a user'"'"'s profile in an interactive environment comprising:

a networked client device with a detector having at least one sensor to capture the user'"'"'s input;

a processor to process the input to generate the user'"'"'s profile;

a repository to store the user'"'"'s profile; and

a server configured with a plurality of the client devices to communicate the user'"'"'s profile for, or in reaction to, online content and events in a predefined user'"'"'s network;

and updating the user'"'"'s profile.

2. The system of claim 1 wherein the client device includes a mobile phone, a Smartphone, a laptop, a camera with WiFi connectivity, a desktop, a tablet computer, or a sensory device with connectivity.

3. The system of claim 1 wherein the detector comprises a single module or plurality of modules which capture the input data from the individual;

process the input data for feature extraction; and

conduct a decision phase.

4. The system of claims 1 wherein the detector captures the user'"'"'s input in form of auditory, visual, text, location based, sensory, haptic, tactile or other stimulus based signals that designate the emotions, behavior, response or reaction of the user.

5. The system of claim 1 wherein the user'"'"'s profile is an instantaneous profile or a time averaged profile.

6. The system of claim 1 wherein the generated profile is stored at a repository and is communicated to a plurality of client devices in the network through an API.

7. The system of claim 1 wherein the server continuously tracks the user'"'"'s reaction or response over a period of time and updates the user'"'"'s profile.

8. The system of claim 1, wherein the user'"'"'s profile is shared in the network based on the predefined set of rules.

9. A method for generating a user'"'"'s profile in an interactive network environment comprising the step of:

capturing input from the user with a client device;

processing the inputs to generate a profile of the user;

storing the profile in a central repository; and

communicating the profile in the networked environment for, or in reaction to, online content and events in a predefined user'"'"'s network.

10. The method of claim 9, wherein the interactive network environment comprises of a plurality of client devices configured with a server in the network through the Internet Local Area Network, or computer network.

11. The method of claim 9, wherein the client device includes a mobile phone, a smartphone, a laptop, a camera with WiFi connectivity, a desktop, a tablet computer, or a sensory device with connectivity.

12. The method of claims 9, wherein the user'"'"'s inputs are in form of auditory, visual, text, location based, sensory, haptic, tactile or other stimulus based signals that designate the emotions, behavior, response or reaction of the user.

13. The method of claim 9 wherein the user'"'"'s profile is an instantaneous profile or a time averaged profile.

14. The method of claim 9, wherein the profile version stored in the central repository is customizable for communication to client devices in the network through an API in a format capable of running in different applications.

15. The method of claim 9 wherein the profile is communicated in the user'"'"'s predefined network for interaction with the online events and content.

16. The method of claim 9 wherein changes in the user'"'"'s inputs over a time period are used to update the user'"'"'s instantaneous and time averaged profile.

17. A method for communicating user'"'"'s profile in an interactive network of a plurality of client device configured with a cloud service comprising of steps:

distributing online content, online interactions and events in a networked environment;

capturing reactions of the user to the content and events using at least one sensor by a client device;

generating a profile of the user;

storing the profile in a network repository; and

communicating the profile showing response of the user to the online content and events, within the user'"'"'s network.

18. The method of claim 17 wherein the client device includes a mobile phone, a Smartphone, a laptop, a camera with WiFi connectivity, a desktop, a tablet computer, or a sensory device with connectivity.

19. The method of claim 17 wherein the content includes multimedia, a web page, content on the internet, a web-interaction including a video conference, a group conference or a text document.

20. The method of claim 17 wherein the user'"'"'s reaction to the content is captured in form of auditory, visual, text, location based, sensory, haptic, tactile or other stimulus based signals that designates the emotions, behavior, response or reaction of the user.

21. The method of claim 17 wherein the profile is an instantaneous profile or a time averaged profile.

22. The method of claim 17 wherein the user'"'"'s profile is stored in different versions or formats at the central repository and is customizable for communication to the client device in the network.

23. The method of claim 17 wherein the profile is communicated through an API in a format capable of running in different applications.

24. The method of claim 17 wherein the profile is communicated fully or partly in the networked environment based on the predefined rules set by the user to selected users in the user'"'"'s network.
