METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ADJUSTING USER INPUT INTERACTION TYPES BASED ON THE LEVEL OF ENGAGEMENT OF A USER
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for adjusting user input interaction types based on actively determining an engagement level of a user, the method comprising:
- recognizing a first type of user input interaction associated with a first composite engagement level;
receiving engagement indicia of the user;
quantifying each of the engagement indicium according to respective metrics to determine engagement levels based on each of the engagement indicium;
computing a second composite engagement level for the user based on the engagement levels associated with each of the engagement indicium;
comparing the second composite engagement level to a threshold engagement level; and
in response to determining that the second composite engagement level corresponds to the threshold engagement level, recognizing a second type of user input interaction associated with the second composite engagement level without recognizing the first type of user input interaction.

11. A system for adjusting user input interaction types based on actively determining an engagement level of a user, the system comprising control circuitry that:
-
recognizes a first type of user input interaction associated with a first composite engagement level; receives engagement indicia of the user; quantifies each of the engagement indicium according to respective metrics to determine engagement levels based on each of the engagement indicium; computes a second composite engagement level for the user based on the engagement levels associated with each of the engagement indicium; compares the second composite engagement level to a threshold engagement level; and in response to determining that the second composite engagement level corresponds to the threshold engagement level, recognizes a second type of user input interaction associated with the second composite engagement level without recognizing the first type of user input interaction. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
