Abstract
Systems and methods for targeted television commercials based on viewer presence. For example, a computer-implemented method may include receiving user information associated with multiple users of the set-top box; receiving a set of television commercials; detecting the presence of multiple mobile devices in the environment; identifying the presence of a first user of the multiple users and a second user of the multiple users using the detection of the presence of the multiple mobile devices in the environment; transmitting programming content to a display device associated with the set-top box in response to an input, wherein when the programming content is received, the programming content is presented on the display device; identifying, by the set-top box, an open commercial slot within the programming content; analyzing data associated with the first user, data associated with the second user, the programming content, and the open commercial slot to determine a chosen television commercial of the set of television commercials to fill the open commercial slot; and transmitting the chosen television commercial to the display device for the chosen television commercial to be displayed on the display device within the open commercial slot within the programming content.
