Publication number: 20140047465Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying a viewer and determining at least one of a plurality of media to display to the viewer on a display device are disclosed. The system comprises an input device, at least one sensor embedded in the input device, a first processor in electronic communication with the input device, and a second processor in electronic communication with the first processor. Software executing on the first processor obtains behaviometrics measurement data from the input device, determines the identity of the viewer, obtains viewer behavior data for the identified viewer, and exports the identity and viewer behavior data to the second processor. Software executing on the second processor receives the identity and viewer behavior data from the first processor, determines at least one of a plurality of media to display to the viewer, and renders the at least one media on the display device.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2013Publication date: February 13, 2014Applicant: WebTuner, CorporationInventors: Eduard Zaslavsky, Arthur Vaysman

Publication number: 20120311629Abstract: Video advertisement with targeted and/or interactive and/or transaction enabled capabilities systems and methods are disclosed. The invention separates in time the transactional component of the video ad from the product or service message (e.g. commercial). By separating the transaction component of the video ad from the commercial, the viewer's experience as intended by the video ad creator is preserved. Additionally, the user experience is optimized for the transactional component by allowing the transactional component to take up extra real-estate on the video screen, allowing the viewer to focus on the transactional components without interfering with the commercial, and allowing the owner of the transactional component to add additional aspects, for example an audio track or moving elements, to improve the effectiveness of the transactional component.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 6, 2012Publication date: December 6, 2012Applicant: WebTuner, CorporationInventors: Eduard Zaslavsky, Arthur Vaysman
