System and method for generating dynamic playlists utilising device co-presence proximity

Abstract

The invention provides a system and method for generating dynamic playlists utilising device co-presence proximity comprising the step of identifying of music preferences by analysing the listening history on a device of a user; and recognising what devices are co-present within a set proximity for the purposes of matching such devices.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An apparatus comprising:
 at least one processor;   at least one memory including a computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to identify a user's music preferences by analysing a listening history on a device of a user.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor and the at least one memory are configured to initiate recognition of devices that are co-present within a set proximity for purposes of matching such devices. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor and the at least one memory are further configured to initiate classification of how content across matched devices is to be generated. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein the at least one processor and the at least one memory are further configured to generate a dynamic playlist based on devices being co-present within a set proximity and using a classification system as desired by a user. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the apparatus is adapted to merge media content utilising co-presence proximity between two or more electronic devices and generating a dynamic playlist for the two or more electronic devices. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein a matching process adapts to a best location or communication module for each specific situation. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein a matching process is optimized in order to save battery life of any matched mobile devices. 
     
     
         8 . A method performed by an apparatus having at least one processor, and at least one memory including a computer program code, for generating dynamic playlists utilising device co-presence proximity comprising:
 identifying a user's music preferences by analysing a listening history on a device of a user; and   recognising devices that are co-present within a set proximity for purposes of matching such devices.   
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor and the at least one memory are configured to initiate classification of how content across matched devices is to be generated. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor and the at least one memory are further configured to generate a dynamic playlist based on devices being co-present within a set proximity and using a classification system as desired by a user. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the apparatus is adapted to merge media content utilising co-presence proximity between two or more electronic devices and generating a dynamic playlist for the two or more electronic devices. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein a matching process adapts to a best location or communication module for each specific situation. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein a matching process is optimized in order to save battery life of any matched mobile devices. 
     
     
         14 . A computer readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon to cause an apparatus having at least one processor, and at least one memory, to carry out a method comprising:
 identifying a user's music preferences by analysing a listening history on a device of a user; and   recognising devices that are co-present within a set proximity for purposes of matching such devices.   
     
     
         15 . The computer readable storage medium of  claim 14 , wherein the at least one processor and the at least one memory are configured to initiate classification of how content across matched devices is to be generated. 
     
     
         16 . The computer readable storage medium of  claim 15 , wherein the at least one processor and the at least one memory are further configured to generate a dynamic playlist based on devices being co-present within a set proximity and using a classification system as desired by a user. 
     
     
         17 . The computer readable storage medium of  claim 14 , wherein the apparatus is adapted to merge media content utilising co-presence proximity between two or more electronic devices and generating a dynamic playlist for the two or more electronic devices. 
     
     
         18 . The computer readable storage medium of  claim 14 , wherein a matching process adapts to a best location or communication module for each specific situation. 
     
     
         19 . The computer readable storage medium of  claim 14 , wherein a matching process is optimized in order to save battery life of any matched mobile devices.
