Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, detecting a user operating a cross reality headset, receiving a first location of the cross reality headset, providing image content and audio content to the cross reality headset, and receiving a second location of the cross reality headset. Further embodiments can include determining the cross reality headset is stationary based on the first location and the second location resulting in a determination, and providing instructions to the cross reality headset to adjust positioning the image content on a display of the cross reality headset and to provide the audio content according to the determination resulting in an adjustment of the positioning of the image content. The cross reality headset presents the image content according to the adjustment on the display. The cross reality headset provides the audio content. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method in which a processing system acquires a video image and voice data of a remote viewer of a live event content and generating animation parameters relating to the video image. An avatar of the viewer is constructed based on the animation parameters; the avatar includes an animated version of the video image. The animated version and voice data are encoded to obtain a compressed animation data stream and a compressed audio stream, which are transmitted at a low bit rate to a remote system providing the content. The remote system aggregates compressed animation data streams and compressed audio streams to obtain a virtual audience for the event; the virtual audience includes avatars of the remote viewers and sound produced by the remote viewers. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a device including a processing system including a processor, and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, where the operations include receiving an advertisement identifier; hashing the advertisement identifier, thereby creating a Bluetooth service identifier; transmitting device data including the Bluetooth service identifier in a Bluetooth transmission; and receiving content in a push notification, wherein a system associates the device data with the advertisement identifier to determine whether to create the push notification. Other embodiments are disclosed.
