Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer program products provide personalized feedback in a cloud-based environment. A client device routes image data to a server for analysis. The server analyzes the image data to recognize people of interest. Because the server performs image recognition, the client device is relieved of these intensive operations.

Claims

1. A method, comprising:

sending, by a device, image data to a server for an analysis;

receiving, by the device, a position determined in response to the analysis, the position associated with a face recognized within the image data;

receiving, by the device, an alignment command associated with the position determined in response to the analysis; and

aligning, by the device, an audio output in response to the alignment command;

wherein the audio output is aimed to the position associated with the face recognized within the image data.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising determining an identification associated with the face recognized within the image data.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising determining a language preference associated with the face recognized within the image data.

4. The method of claim 1, further comprising determining an audio track associated with the face recognized within the image data.

5. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving an audio track associated with the face recognized within the image data.

6. The method of claim 1, further comprising determining a name associated with the face recognized within the image data.

7. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving an instruction for the aligning of the audio output to the position associated with the face recognized within the image data.

8. A system, comprising:

a hardware processor; and

a memory device, the memory device storing instructions, the instructions when executed causing the hardware processor to perform operations, the operations comprising;

sending image data to a server for an analysis;

receiving a position determined in response to the analysis, the position associated with a face recognized within the image data;

receiving an alignment command associated with the position determined in response to the analysis; and

aligning an audio output in response to the alignment command;

wherein the audio output is aimed to the position associated with the face recognized within the image data.

9. The system of claim 8, wherein the operations further comprise determining an identification associated with the face recognized within the image data.

10. The system of claim 8, wherein the operations further comprise determining a language preference associated with the face recognized within the image data.

11. The system of claim 8, wherein the operations further comprise determining an audio track associated with the face recognized within the image data.

12. The system of claim 8, wherein the operations further comprise receiving an audio track associated with the face recognized within the image data.

13. The system of claim 8, wherein the operations further comprise determining a name associated with the face recognized within the image data.

14. The system of claim 8, wherein the operations further comprise receiving an instruction for the aligning of the audio output to the position associated with the face recognized within the image data.

15. A memory device storing instructions that when executed cause a hardware processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:

sending image data to a web-based server for an analysis;

receiving a position determined in response to the analysis, the position associated with a face recognized within the image data;

receiving an alignment command associated with the position determined in response to the analysis; and

aligning an audio output in response to the alignment command;

wherein the audio output is aimed to the position associated with the face recognized within the image data.

16. The memory device of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise determining an identification associated with the face recognized within the image data.

17. The memory device of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise determining a language preference associated with the face recognized within the image data.

18. The memory device of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise determining an audio track associated with the face recognized within the image data.

19. The memory device of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise receiving an audio track associated with the face recognized within the image data.

20. The memory device of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise receiving an instruction to align the audio output to the position associated with the face recognized within the image data.
