Patent ID: 10958733

Abstract:
The system provides the ability for primary users (e.g., parents, or the like) to assign actions to dependent users (e.g., kids, or the like) through the use of devices located at the location of the dependent users (e.g., home, or the like). The actions may be tasks for the dependent users to complete using devices (e.g., appliances or other devices). Moreover, the primary users can monitor if the dependent users are undertaking the assigned actions using the devices, and in response, may control the use of other devices at the same location (e.g., entertainment devices) until the dependent users undertake the actions (e.g., start, complete, etc. the actions). Assignment of the actions and control of the devices may be made automatically in order to aid in achieving the one or more desired actions. Notification of the actions and/or instructions on how to perform the actions may pushed to the devices.
