Abstract: Devices, computer-readable media, and methods for changing the state of a network-connected device in response to at least one facial gesture of a user are disclosed. For example, a processing system including at least one processor captures images of a face of a user, detects at least one facial gesture of the user from the images, determines an intention to change a state of a network-connected device from the at least one facial gesture, generates a command for the network-connected device in accordance with the intention, and outputs the command to cause the state of the network-connected device to change.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, embodiments of methods, systems, and devices for receiving user information and biometric data from groups of communication devices. Additional embodiments can include correlating and storing the user information and the biometric data in a hierarchical database according to a classification. Further embodiments can include accessing the user information and the biometric data, determining an emotional state of a user in response to processing the user information and biometric data resulting in a determined emotional state, and selecting enhanced audio content and enhanced image content according to the determined emotional state. Also, embodiments can include generating the user experience for a viewer. The user experience includes a portion of the user information, the enhanced audio content, and enhanced image content to attempt provide an emotive response from the viewer similar to the determined emotional state. Other embodiments are disclosed.
