First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method for transitioning content, the method comprising:
- receiving a signal that is associated with an area, wherein the area is associated with a first media device;
detecting, at a first time, that a plurality of viewers are within the area based on the received signal and that a media content item is being presented by the first media device, wherein each of the plurality of viewers is associated with an identifier;
associating a time parameter of the media content item with the identifier corresponding to a viewer of the plurality of viewers in response to detecting, at a second time, that the viewer has transitioned away from the media content item being presented by the first media device; and
causing the media content to be presented on the second media device associated with the viewer based on the associated time parameter.

11. A system for transitioning content, the system comprising:
a hardware processor that is configured to; receive a signal that is associated with an area, wherein the area is associated with a first media device; detect, at a first time, that a plurality of viewers are within the area based on the received signal and that a media content item is being presented by the first media device, wherein each of the plurality of viewers is associated with an identifier; associate a time parameter of the media content item with the identifier corresponding to a viewer of the plurality of viewers in response to detecting, at a second time, that the viewer has transitioned away from the media content item being presented by the first media device; and cause the media content to be presented on the second media device associated with the viewer based on the associated time parameter. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
