Abstract: An update basis for updating digital content in a digital medium environment is described. The digital content is updated by incorporating new digital content components from a service provider system, such as a stock content service, to keep the digital content from seeming stale to client device users. The service provider system controls provision of digital content components according to an update basis described in a component request. In part, component requests ask that the service provider system provide digital content components for incorporation with digital content. Component requests also describe a timing basis with which digital content components are to be provided as updates. By way of example, the timing basis may correspond to a time interval (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly, seasonally, times of day, and so on), receiving user input in relation to the digital content (e.g., a navigation input to a web page), and so forth.

Abstract: Unique users and/or the current user of a non-computer product are identified. Sensor data is collected from sensors on the non-computer product. The sensor data provides data regarding settings and/or usage patterns of the non-computer product. The sensor data is provided to an analytics engine, which analyzes the sensor data using machine-learning techniques to identify unique users of the non-computer product and/or a current user of the non-computer product. Analytics that include at least an indication of the unique users are provided to a product manufacturer and/or other entity (e.g., a retailer).

Abstract: A virtual reality device is configured to generate realistic images, sounds and other sensations that replicate a real or imagined environment for a user. As a first user interacts with the device, first user interaction data representing interactions between the first user and the device during a first user visit are recorded. A first unique visitor fingerprint is generated based on the first user interaction data. As a second user interacts with the device, second user interaction data representing interactions between the second user and the device during a second user visit that is different from the first user visit are recorded. A second unique visitor fingerprint is generated based on the second user interaction data. The first and second unique visitor fingerprints are compared to determine whether the second user is the same as the first user. Based on the determination, one or more functions can be performed.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for generating enhanced user profiles that include “off-line” activities omitted from conventional user profiles. In one embodiment, each of two or more Internet of Things (IoT) products records usage data descriptive of a user's interactions with the IoT product. This usage data is based on values of physical parameters measured by sensors embedded within the IoT products. In recording the usage data, an IoT product may transmit the usage and sensor data to a user profile storage device. In response to receiving the usage and sensor data from the IoT products, the user profile storage device stores the usage and sensor data and associates the usage and sensor data with the user. Additionally, the user profile storage device exposes an interface through which marketing personnel can analyze user profiles made up of the stored usage and sensor data.
