Abstract:
1. A method for detecting users within a detectable range of a media device, the method comprising: defining a first detection region associated with a first user, wherein the first detection region is within a first detectable range, and wherein the first detection region is smaller than the first detectable range, and wherein the first detection region is associated with the media device and the first detectable range is associated with the same media device, and wherein the first detection region is a predetermined detection region; storing parameters of the first detection region; determining whether the first user is within the first detectable range and the first detection region; activating the media device upon determining that the first user is within the first detection region; applying first settings that are associated with the first user on the media device when the first user is within the first detection region; transmitting a first media content based on the first settings; and stopping the application of the first settings on the media device when the first user is outside of the first detection region and within the first detectable range.
