    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for extended reality environment interaction. An extended reality environment including an object is generated for display, and a table of eyelid motion identifiers and corresponding actions performable on the object in the extended reality environment is stored in memory. An eyelid motion is detected by using a sensor, and the detected eyelid motion is matched to one of the stored eyelid motion identifiers. An updated version of the extended reality environment, based on the action that corresponds to the matched eyelid motion, is generated for display, in response to matching the detected eyelid motion to one of the stored eyelid motion identifiers.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for a computer-based process that determines when a viewer is likely to skip over supplemental content and adjusts supplemental content presentation to compensate. Systems of embodiments of the disclosure may utilize various inputs to determine the likelihood of skipping supplemental content, including cursor position at or near specified icons or other UI elements, as well as user actions such as gaze direction, various motions or actions, controller manipulations, and the like. Once a likelihood of skipping supplemental content is determined, various actions may be taken in response, including without limitation selection of supplemental content that conveys its intended message prior to skipping, supplemental content that can be played at increased speed, and designation of supplemental content slots as skippable or non-skippable.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for recommending and dynamically scheduling content. A time when a request to consume a content item is likely to be received is identified and an identifier of the content item is displayed on a device. Prior to the identified time, an option to consume, at the identified time, the content item is also displayed on the device. In response to the option being selected, the device stops displaying the identifier of the content item until the identified time.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining, based on recommendations provided by users that have consumed a media asset, which consumption options may be configured on a media device such that when configured enhance the user viewing experience for a specific media asset. The method includes accessing comments posted by other users that have consumed the media asset. The comments are analyzed to determine a consumption option recommendation. If the number of comments meet a threshold value, then the system either automatically configures the media device or configures the media device upon user approval with the recommended consumption option. The recommendation to configure a consumption option on the media device is made only if the recommendation is supported by the media device. The system also detects through audio and image analysis which users are consuming the media asset and accordingly configures the consumption options to their preferences.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing a reply to a query related to a media asset. A query may be received from a user while the media asset is being played on a first device, and in response to determining that the query is related to the media asset, a snapshot of the media asset may be captured, where the snapshot comprises a depiction of a first object and a second object, and the snapshot may be generated for display at a second device. In response to determining there is ambiguity whether the query is related to the first or second object, a disambiguating query based on the first and second objects of the snapshot may be generated for simultaneous output with the snapshot. In response to receiving a reply to the disambiguating query, a response to the query may be generated for output based on the reply.

    Abstract: A system or method of prioritizing participants in a virtual meeting via a network by scoring each participant on several criteria and weighting the criteria to determine a readiness score. The system of accesses, for each of a plurality of participants, network data, video data, audio data, processing data, and participation data. The system determines, for each of the plurality of participants, a signal strength score based on the corresponding network data, a background score based on the corresponding video data and audio data, a microphone proximity score based on the corresponding video data, a processing score for each of the plurality of participants based on the corresponding processing data, and an engagement score based on the corresponding video data and participation data. The system calculates the readiness score, for each participant, based at least on the corresponding signal strength score, background score, engagement score, and processing score, ranks the participants, and provides the ranked participants.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for processing audio streams are disclosed herein. An audio stream including speech content is received. The audio stream is compacted to generate a compacted audio stream and the compacted audio stream is transmitted to an automatic speech recognition (ASR) service for transcription of the speech content to text content. In response to transmitting the compacted audio stream for transcription, text content, a transcription of the audio stream, is received from the ASR service.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described to identify jump points indicative of potential time points from which to resume consumption of the media asset in response to receiving a request to skip a portion of a media asset being consumed. The jump points include a first jump point identified based on a content viewing profile and a second jump point identified based on a scene information associated with the media asset. A preview image is displayed at each of the identified jump points. Systems and methods are also described to pause the skipping operation at the identified jump points and provide a preview at the respective jump points. Systems and method are further described to identify jump points based on analysis of the portion of the media asset being skipped.
