1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving a first signal from a first camera that is associated with a first area;
identifying a face of a viewer within the first area based on the first signal;
retrieving a user identifier associated with the face of the viewer;
selecting a program from a plurality of programs based on the user identifier;
displaying the program on a first device in the first area;
detecting that the viewer is no longer interacting with the first device based on the received first signal;
associating a time parameter of the program that corresponds to the detection with the user identifier;
receiving a second signal from a second camera that is associated with a second area;
determining that the face of the viewer that has been identified within the second area based on the received second signal corresponds to the user identifier; and
displaying, based on the determination, the program on a second device in the second area according to the associated time parameter of the program.

11. A system for selecting a program for playback based on facial recognition of a viewer comprising:
-
a first camera associated with a first area; a second camera associated with a second area; and a processing circuit configured to; receive a first signal from the first camera; identify a face of a viewer within the first area based on the first signal; retrieve a user identifier associated with the face of the viewer; select a program from a plurality of programs based on the user identifier; display the program on a first device in the first area; detect that the viewer is no longer interacting with the first device based on the first signal; associate a time parameter of the program that corresponds to the detection with the user identifier; receive a second signal from the second camera; determine that the face of the viewer that has been identified within the second area based on the received second signal corresponds to the user identifier; and display, based on the determination, the program on a second device in the second area according to the stored time parameter of the program. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
