1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- determining a person to which a selected media program has been presented and passive sensor data has been sensed during the presentation of the selected media program to the person; and
presenting, in a user interface, an animated avatar performing a media reaction corresponding to a reaction for the person during the presentation of the selected media program to the person, the media reaction including a clapping, cheering, laughing, screaming, looking toward, looking away, smiling, departed, crying, or sleeping state, the media reaction determined based on the passive sensor data sensed for the person during the presentation of the selected media program.

Abstract
This document describes techniques and apparatuses enabling a user interface for presenting a media reaction. The techniques receive media reactions of a person to a media program, such as the person laughing at one point of a comedy show, then smiling at another point, and then departing at a third point. The techniques may present these and other media reactions in a user interface through which a user may interact.

11. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
determining a media program that has been presented to a selected person and for which passive sensor data has been sensed during the presentation of the media program to the selected person; and presenting, in a user interface, an animated avatar performing a media reaction representing a reaction for the person, the media reaction including a clapping, cheering, laughing, screaming, looking toward, looking away, smiling, departed, crying, or sleeping state, the media reaction determined based on the passive sensor data sensed during the presentation of the selected media program to the person. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
receiving media reactions for a person, the media reactions determined based on sensor data passively sensed at time periods during which a media program is presented to the person; presenting, in a user interface, a time-based graph, the time-based graph showing the media reactions for the person at the time periods; enabling selection, through the time-based graph of the user interface, to display a portion of the media program associated with one of the media reactions; and responsive to selection of the portion of the media program, causing; the portion of the media program to be presented; and an animated avatar to be presented in conjunction with the portion of the media program, the animated avatar clapping, cheering, laughing, screaming, looking toward, looking away, smiling, departed, crying, or sleeping in correspondence with one of the media reactions for the person. - View Dependent Claims (20)
