Device configuration with multiple profiles for a single user using remote user biometrics
First Claim
1. A system for configuring electronic devices multiple ways for a single user based on remotely received user biometrics, comprising:
- at least one remote control device, comprising;
at least one sensor that detects at least one biometric; and
at least one electronic device that is configured to receive at least one instruction from the at least one remote control device;
wherein the at least one electronic device receives data associated with the at least one biometric, determines which profile of a user is associated with the data out of a plurality of profiles for the user, and configures the at least one electronic device according to the profile; and
wherein the at least one electronic device;
receives the data associated with the at least one biometric at a first time;
receives information associated with an additional biometric at a second time;
receives the data associated with the at least one biometric at a third time; and
determines suggested content to recommend based on content that was accessed at at least one of the first time or the third time, but not the second time.

Abstract
An electronic device receives data associated with at least one biometric detected by a sensor of a remote control device that is operable to transmit one or more instructions to the electronic device. A profile for a user associated with the data is determined out of a number of profiles for the user based on the data. The electronic device is then be configured in one or more ways according to the determined user profile. A user may have any number of different profiles for the electronic device, each associated with a different biometric or combination of biometrics. In this way, a user may easily access different experiences with the same device that may each be fully personalized in a different way and/or for a particular purpose.
