Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of operation of a content delivery system includes: detecting a person's presence for identifying a portable device; determining an audience type based on the person's presence for determining a content type presentable on a public device; and distributing a display content based on the audience type for displaying on the portable device, the public device, or a combination thereof.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of operation of a content delivery system comprising: detecting a person's presence with a capturing device for identifying a portable device; determining an audience type with a control unit according to the person's presence detected within a detection zone categorized under a privacy setting for identifying whether the person's presence represents a registered user or an unregistered user for determining a content type presentable on a public device; generating a display content with subcontents including a private content and a public content; distributing the display content based on the audience type and a time threshold for confirming the person's presence suitable for partitioning the subcontents from the display content to store the private content on the portable device and to send the public content on the public device; distributing the subcontents including the private content to the public device based on the audience type detected within the detection zone permitted under the privacy setting for displaying on the public device; displaying the subcontents including the private content to the public device when the audience type detected within the detection zone is the registered user; and restricting displaying the subcontents including the private content to the public device when the audience type detected within the detection zone is the unregistered user. 2. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein distributing the display content includes distributing the public content based on the audience type for displaying on the public device. 3. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein distributing the display content includes distributing the private content based on the audience type for displaying on the portable device. 4. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising displaying the public content, the private content, or a combination thereof for displaying on the portable device different from the display content displayed on the public device. 5. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising generating a privacy setting for differentiating the display content displayed on the portable device from the display content displayed on the public device. 6. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein distributing the display content includes distributing the display content based on the audience type, the time threshold, and the content type for confirming the person's presence suitable for partitioning the subcontents from the display content to store the private content on the portable device and to send the public content on the public device. 7. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein distributing the display content includes distributing the display content based on a plurality of the audience type for displaying the display content different for each of a plurality of the portable device. 8. The method as claimed in claim 6 further comprising generating a privacy setting for grouping a plurality of the audience type permitted for displaying the display content. 9. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein distributing the display content includes generating a notification based on the audience type for displaying the notification on the portable device, the public device, or a combination thereof. 10. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein: detecting the person's presence includes detecting the person's presence within a detection zone; and distributing the display content includes distributing the display content based on the person's presence for displaying the display content different from the person's presence outside of the detection zone. 11. A content delivery system comprising: a control unit configured to: detect a person's presence with a capturing device for identifying a portable device, determine an audience type according to the person's presence detected within a detection zone categorized under a privacy setting for identifying whether the person's presence represents a registered user or an unregistered user for determining a content type presentable on a public device, generating a display content with subcontents including a private content and a public content, and a communication interface, coupled to the control unit, configured to distribute the display content based on the audience type and a time threshold for confirming the person's presence suitable for partitioning the subcontents from the display content to store the private content on the portable device and to send the public content on the public device and to distribute the subcontents including the private content to the public device based on the audience type detected within the detection zone permitted under the privacy setting for displaying on the public device; wherein the subcontents including the private content are displayed to the public device when the audience type detected within the detection zone is the registered user; wherein the subcontents including the private content are restricted from displaying to the public device when the audience type detected within the detection zone is the unregistered user. 12. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to distribute the public content based on the audience type for displaying on the public device. 13. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to distribute the private content based on the audience type for displaying on the portable device. 14. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to display the public content, the private content, or a combination thereof for displaying the display content on the portable device different from the content displayed on the public device. 15. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to generate a privacy setting for differentiating the display content displayed on the portable device from the display content displayed on the public device. 16. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to distribute the display content based on the audience type and the content type for displaying on the portable device, the public device, or a combination thereof. 17. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to distribute the display content based on a plurality of the audience type for displaying the display content different for each of a plurality of the portable device. 18. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to generate a privacy setting for grouping a plurality of the audience type permitted for displaying the display content. 19. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to generate a notification based on the audience type for displaying the notification on the portable device, the public device, or a combination thereof. 20. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to: detect the person's presence within a detection zone; and distribute the display content based on the person's presence for displaying the display content different from the person's presence outside of the detection zone.
