Systems, apparatuses, and methods for managing message content are provided. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by one or more computing devices, a message comprising audio content and visual media content. The method further includes sending, by the one or more computing devices, a first set of data descriptive of the audio content to an audio device. The audio device is configured to communicate the audio content to a user of the audio device. The method includes sending, by the one or more computing devices, a second set of data descriptive of the visual media content to a display device. The display device is configured to display the visual media content for the user. The method further includes providing, by the one or more computing devices, a notification to the user of the audio device to view the visual media content on the display device.

Management system for audio and visual content

The disclosure includes a system and method for detecting proximity between users. The system includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed cause the system to: determine a context associated with a first user device; query other user devices based on the context to create a set of other user devices that satisfy a query; generate a list of filtered devices by filtering the set of other user devices; notify the first user device of the list of filtered devices; and query for the list of filtered devices to determine which filtered devices are within proximity to the first user device.

Proximity detection

The disclosure includes a system and method for summarizing social interactions between users. The system includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed cause the system to: receive a signal stream from at least one of a hardware sensor and a virtual detector, filter the signal stream and outputting filtered signal stream including data defining human-understandable actions, identify activities associated with a first user from the filtered signal stream, generate a summary of the first user's activities, determine that the first user is within proximity to a second user, determine a degree of separation between the first user and the second user in a social network, determine a time elapsed since a last interaction between the first user and the second user, classify the first user's relationship with the second user as being a first type of relationship, a second type of relationship or a third time of relationship, responsive to having the first type of relationship, generate a first summary for the first user that includes a notification that the second user is nearby, a last interaction with the second user and recent interactions with the second user, responsive to having the second type of relationship, generate a second summary for the first user that includes the notification that the second user is nearby, the last interaction with the second user and events that the first user and the second user share in common, and responsive to having the third type of relationship, generate a third summary for the first user that includes the notification that the second user is nearby and events that the first user and the second user share in common.

Summarizing social interactions between users

A system and associated methods for generating a temporal event stream for a user is disclosed. The system includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed cause the system to: receive a signal stream from a user device, determine one or more events from the signal stream, generate a first event stream based on the one or more events, generate one or more queries based on the signal stream, retrieve new events by applying the one or more queries against data stored by an event server and update the first event stream with the new events.

Event stream architecture for syncing events

The disclosure includes a system and method for creating event streams from raw data. The system includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed cause the system to: receive a first event and a second event associated with a first user from a first user device; receive a third event associated with a second user from a second user device; determine one or more overlapping activities between the first event and the third event; update the first event using the third event to generate a first update event; update the third event using the first event to generate a second update event; generate a first event stream that includes the first update event and the second event for the first user; and generate a second event stream that includes the second update event for the second user.
