1. A method for tracking user, comprising:
- providing multiple frames from a source to an electronic device;
capturing one of the multiple frames viewed on a display device connected to the electronic device automatically based on an event;
matching a pattern of the captured frame with a frame template by searching a plurality of frame templates;
using the matched frame template to extract information from the captured frame; and
storing the extracted information for tracking user behavior.

13. A system for tracking user behavior, comprising:
-
a display device that receives multiple image frames from a source; and an electronic device coupled to the display device, the electronic device comprising a frame recognition module that automatically captures one of the multiple frames based on an event, matches a pattern of the captured frame with a frame template by searching a plurality of frame templates stored in a first memory, uses the matched frame template to extract information from the captured frame, and stores the extracted information in a second memory for tracking user behavior. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
