Abstract: In one example, a method performed by a processing system including at least one processor includes establishing a communication group including at least three users of an extended reality environment as members, tracking locations and directional positions of the members of the communication group within the extended reality environment and within physical environments of the members, determining that a second user of the at least three users is an intended recipient of a first utterance made by a first user of the at least three users, and presenting the first utterance to the second user, where a directionality associated with a presentation of the first utterance is based on a location and a directional position of the first user relative to the second user.

Abstract: In one example, a method performed by a processing system including at least one processor includes acquiring a first item of media content from a user, where the first item of media content depicts a subject, acquiring a second item of media content, where the second item of media content depicts the subject, compositing the first item of media content and the second item of media content to create, within a metaverse of immersive content, an item of immersive content that depicts the subject, presenting the item of immersive content on a device operated by the user, and adapting the presenting of the item of immersive content in response to a choice made by the user.

Abstract: A system for embedding users' preferences and behaviors based on interactions with an array of devices.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method that includes determining, by a processing system including a processor, that a viewer is viewing primary content for a first time; capturing, by the processing system, an emotive response of the viewer as the primary content is viewed during the first time; determining that the viewer is viewing the primary content at a subsequent time, wherein the subsequent time is later than the first time; detecting the emotive response of the viewer as the primary content is viewed during the subsequent time; retrieving external media responsive to detecting the emotive response; and displaying the external media. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, obtaining contextual information relating to a user, where the contextual information comprises location data that identifies a location of the user, identifying media content that relates to the contextual information and to profile data associated with the user, deriving, from the media content, personalized media content based on the profile data associated with the user, causing a target device to provide an immersion environment that includes the personalized media content, detecting user interaction data relating to the immersion environment, and performing an action relating to the personalized media content based on the detecting the user interaction data. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, facilitating a collaborative shopping session between first equipment of a first user and second equipment of a second user; obtaining a first shopping preference of the first user; obtaining a first image of first stock currently available for purchase in a first physical store; selecting, based at least in part upon the first shopping preference of the first user, a selected other physical store, the selected other physical store being selected from among at least a second physical store and a third physical store; obtaining a second image of second stock currently available for purchase in the selected other physical store; combining the first image and the second image into a combined image; sending to the first equipment the combined image; and sending to the second equipment the combined image. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system including a processor, facilitate performance of operations, including: receiving measurements indicating a viewpoint and a gaze direction of a user in a room; receiving a plurality of real-time images from the two or more cameras outside of the room; creating a visual presentation comprising two or more of the plurality of real-time images stitched together, wherein the two or more of the plurality of real-time images are used to remove a physical object obstructing a view of one of the two or more cameras; and sending the visual presentation to the display device, wherein the display device presents the visual presentation on the screen. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, scanning, by an augmented reality system, a local environment which includes an object. The scanning includes identifying one or more characteristics of the object such as its size or shape. The subject disclosure may further include providing, to a display device of a local user in the local environment, local image information of the object from a viewing perspective of the local user and providing, to a display device of a remote user in a remote environment, remote image information of the object from a viewing perspective of the remote user.
