Application: Outputting emotes based on audience member expressions in large-scale electronic presentation (Patent ID: US20240195645A1)
The abstract describes a presentation service that creates an audience interface for electronic presentations, mimicking in-person presentations with features like a central presenter and audience seat locations. Audience members can select emotes to express their opinions on the content, enabling chats, private rooms, and other virtual functions. The claims detail a method, system, and computer-readable storage medium for detecting emotes from audience devices, determining the amount of each emote type, and generating haptic feedback for the presenter based on the emote threshold exceeded, with different haptic feedback corresponding to different emote types like thumbs up, thumbs down, or applause.
The method involves detecting and responding to emotes from audience devices during electronic presentations, with haptic feedback generated for the presenter based on the type and amount of emotes received. The system includes memory with encoded instructions and processors to perform operations related to emote detection and haptic feedback generation, while the computer-readable storage medium contains instructions for executing the emote detection and haptic feedback generation process. Overall, the patent focuses on enhancing virtual presentations by incorporating audience feedback through emotes and providing corresponding haptic feedback to the presenter for a more interactive experience.
