Abstract

Embodiments of a system and method for emotional tagging are generally described herein. A method may include receiving, at a device, biometric data and a timestamp, analyzing the biometric data to determine an emotional reaction occurred, tagging a portion of content with an emotional content tag based on the emotional reaction, wherein the portion of content was playing during a time corresponding to the timestamp, and sending the portion of content and the emotional content tag to a server. A method may include aggregating content tagged as emotional content, generating an emotional content video segment, and providing the emotional content video segment.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A wearable device comprising:
processing circuitry to:
receive biometric data, including heart rate data, a first timestamp, and a second timestamp;
analyze the biometric data to determine that a first emotional reaction occurred and a second emotional reaction occurred and to determine whether a first set of the heart rate data corresponding to the first emotional reaction matches a positive or a negative emotional profile and whether a second set of the heart rate data corresponding to the second emotional reaction matches a positive or negative emotional profile, wherein the first and second emotional reactions correspond to opposite emotional profiles;
tag a first portion of content with a first emotional content tag based on the first emotional reaction, wherein the first portion of content was playing during a time corresponding to the first timestamp;
tag a second portion of content with a second emotional content tag based on the second emotional reaction, wherein the second portion of content was playing during a time corresponding to the second timestamp; and
send the first portion of content with the first emotional content tag and the second portion of content with the second emotional content tag to a server in a single media file.

2. The wearable device of claim 1 , wherein the first emotional content tag includes a positive emotional content tag when the first set of the heart rate data matches the positive profile and includes a negative emotional content tag when the first set of the heart rate data matches the negative profile.

3. The wearable device of claim 1 , wherein to tag the first portion of content the processing circuitry is to add a tag to an HTML5 media file.

4. The wearable device of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is to create the first portion of content from a content file, the first portion of content created based on the first timestamp and a detected scene beginning.

5. The wearable device of claim 1 , wherein the first emotional content tag is further based on predefined demographics of a user of the device.

6. The wearable device of claim 1 , further comprising a sensor to measure the biometric data.

7. The wearable device of claim 6 , wherein the biometric data includes facial expression data.

8. The wearable device of claim 6 , wherein the biometric data includes blood pressure data.

9. The wearable device of claim 8 , wherein to analyze the biometric data the blood pressure data is analyzed to further distinguish an emotional response type.

10. The wearable device of claim 6 , wherein the biometric data includes skin conductance data.

11. The wearable device of claim 10 , wherein to analyze the biometric data the skin conductance data is analyzed to further distinguish an emotional response type.

12. A method comprising:
receiving, at a device, biometric data, including heart rate data, a first timestamp, and a second timestamp;
analyzing the biometric data to determine that a first emotional reaction occurred and a second emotional reaction occurred and to determine whether a first set of the heart rate data corresponding to the first emotional reaction matches a positive or a negative emotional profile and whether a second set of the heart rate data corresponding to the second emotional reaction matches a positive or negative emotional profile, wherein the first and second emotional reactions correspond to opposite emotional profiles;
tagging a first portion of content with a first emotional content tag based on the first emotional reaction, wherein the first portion of content was playing during a time corresponding to the first timestamp;
tagging a second portion of content with a second emotional content tag based on the second emotional reaction, wherein the second portion of content was playing during a time corresponding to the second timestamp; and
sending the first portion of content with the first emotional content tag and the second portion of content with the second emotional content tag to a server in a single media file.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the device is a wearable device.

14. The method of claim 12 , wherein the first emotional content tag includes a positive emotional content tag when the first set of heart rate data matches the positive profile and includes a negative emotional content tag when the first set of heart rate data matches the negative profile.

15. The method of claim 12 , wherein tagging the first portion of content includes adding a tag to an HTML5 media file.

16. The method of claim 12 , further comprising creating the first portion of content from a content file, the first portion of content created based on the first timestamp and a detected scene beginning.

17. The method of claim 12 , wherein the first emotional content tag is further based on predefined demographics of a user of the device.

18. The method of claim 12 , wherein the biometric data includes blood pressure data.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein analyzing the biometric data includes analyzing the blood pressure data to further distinguish an emotional response type.

20. At least one non-transitory machine-readable medium including instructions for operation of a computing system, which when executed by a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
receiving, at a device, biometric data, including heart rate data, a first timestamp, and a second timestamp;
analyzing the biometric data to determine that a first emotional reaction occurred and a second emotional reaction occurred and to determine whether a first set of the heart rate data corresponding to the first emotional reaction matches a positive or a negative emotional profile and whether a second set of the heart rate data corresponding to the second emotional reaction matches a positive or negative emotional profile, wherein the first and second emotional reactions correspond to opposite emotional profiles;
tagging a first portion of content with a first emotional content tag based on the first emotional reaction, wherein the first portion of content was playing during a time corresponding to the first timestamp;
tagging a second portion of content with a second emotional content tag based on the second emotional reaction, wherein the second portion of content was playing during a time corresponding to the second timestamp; and
sending the first portion of content with the first emotional content tag and the second portion of content with the second emotional content tag to a server in a single media file.

21. The at least one machine-readable medium of claim 20 , wherein the device is a wearable device.

22. The at least one machine-readable medium of claim 20 , wherein the first emotional content tag includes a positive emotional content tag when the first set of heart rate data matches the positive profile and includes a negative emotional content tag when the first set of heart rate data matches the negative profile.

23. The at least one machine-readable medium of claim 20 , wherein tagging the first portion of content includes adding a tag to an HTML5 media file.

24. The at least one machine-readable medium of claim 20 , wherein the biometric data includes blood pressure data.

25. The at least one machine-readable medium of claim 24 , wherein analyzing the biometric data includes analyzing the blood pressure data to further distinguish an
