Abstract: Systems and methods may be used to automatically detect a query in interactive content. A system may implement a method that includes receiving an audible signal. The method may include determining that a portion of the audible signal includes speech. The method may include translating at least the portion of the audible signal. The portion of the audible signal may be translated into a natural language output. The method may include generating an identifier (ID) associated with the speech. The ID maybe generated on a condition that the natural language output includes a trigger. The method may include generating an inaudible signal that includes the ID. The method may include synchronizing the inaudible signal with the audible signal. The method may include transmitting the audible signal a ta first frequency. The method may include transmitting the inaudible signal at a second frequency.

Abstract: A device may include a processor, a receiver, and a transmitter. The receiver may be configured to receive a content signal. The transmitter may be configured to transmit the content signal. The transmitter may be configured to transmit an associated inaudible signal. The content signal, the associated inaudible signal, or both, may be transmitted to one or more electronic devices. Each of the one or more electronic devices may be configured with audio interfaces. The receiver may be configured to receive a respective message from each of the one or more electronic devices. Each respective message may be based on the associated inaudible signal. Each respective message may include a respective electronic device identifier. The transmitter may be configured to transmit one of the respective messages.

Abstract: Systems and methods may be used to detect an inaudible signal associated with a first audible signal of an audio input. The inaudible signal may include a frequency signature. The frequency signature may be associated with an electronic device type. The systems and methods may activate a response monitor. The response monitor may be activated for a predetermined time. The response monitor may be activated responsive to the frequency signature. The systems and methods may determine a content characteristic of the first audible signal based on the inaudible signal. The systems and methods may include generating a message. The message may be based on the content characteristic. The systems and methods may include transmitting the message. The message may be transmitted on a condition that a second audible signal corresponds to the message and is received within the predetermined time.

Abstract: Systems and methods for navigating through activity information using a media guidance application are provided. An Internet appliance is integrated with a plurality of content sources accessible to user equipment. A simultaneous display of a first plurality of media asset listings, corresponding to a first plurality of media assets transmitted by each of the plurality of content sources during a first time interval that includes the present time, and information received from the Internet appliance is generated. In response to a user request to navigate to a second time interval that precedes the present time, a simultaneous display of a second plurality of media asset listings, corresponding to a second plurality of media assets that were transmitted by each of the plurality of content sources during the second time interval, and a timeline that includes indicators representing activity detected by the Internet appliance during the second time interval is generated.

The inaudible signal may be associated with a content identifier of the audible signal. The transmitter may be configured to transmit the audible signal, the inaudible signal, or both, to a first electronic device, a second electronic device, or both. The receiver may be configured to receive a first message that includes a first input and a second message that includes a second input. The processor may be configured to determine whether the first input matches the second input. The transmitter may be further configured to transmit the first message to the first service on a condition that the first input and the second input are determined to match.

Abstract: Systems and methods for tracking the status of an anticipated dynamic event and displaying a corresponding notification icon on a media progress indicator. A media guidance application receives, from an application (e.g., Uber), a notification (e.g., “Driver Found”) during consumption of a media asset (e.g., “Fast and Furious”) and determines that an expected event without a fixed time of occurrence will happen (e.g., arrival of driver at user's location). The media guidance application determines an anticipated time of the expected event and generate a visual icon representing the expected event on the media asset's consumption progress indicator at the anticipated time relative to the consumption (e.g., 56-minute mark of the movie). As updated information (e.g., traffic, driver's route, etc.) is received, the media guidance application recalculates the anticipated time and shift the visual icon based on the new calculation.

Abstract: Systems and methods for interfacing with electronic devices using inaudible frequencies are disclosed. The method includes generating a query for output by a first device and transmitting an inaudible signal having an activation signal to activate a second device and context data for the query. A voice response to the query is captured and an action based on the voice response and the context data is performed. The method may include generating the query based on interactive subject matter.
