Abstract: A method for media consumption gap filling comprises: receiving notification that a first user has selected a first broadcast channel to view while the first broadcast channel is showing a first program; determining a desired program scheduled to be presented via the first broadcast channel at a time after an end of the first program; calculating a first duration that starts at a current time and ends at a scheduled time for commencement of the desired program; identifying first gap-filling content that has a duration sufficient to fill the first duration, the first gap-filling content from a first personalized media corpus associated with the first user; and presenting first gap-filling content. A first user presetting may be received, comprising a preference for: flexible gap filling that allows the presenting to extend beyond the scheduled time of the commencement of the desired program or strict ending of gap filling so that the presenting ends at the scheduled time of the commencement of the desired program. Gap-filling content may be recap content, of previously shown media related to the desired program, or an end portion of first media content.

Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for media consumption gap filling are provided. Notification that a first user has selected a first broadcast channel to view while the first broadcast channel is showing a first program may be received. A desired program scheduled to be presented via the first broadcast channel at a time after an end of the first program may be determined. A first duration may be calculated that starts at a current time and ends at a scheduled time of commencement of the desired program. First gap-filling content that has a duration sufficient to fill the first duration may be identified. The first gap-filling content may be from a first personalized media corpus associated with the first user. The first gap-filling content may be presented.

Abstract: A method for augmenting communication, a computer program product for augmenting communication, and an augmented reality system. The method for augmenting communication may comprise calculating a sound boundary within which a communication can be heard, generating a visualization of the sound boundary on an augmented reality device, and presenting the visualization on the augmented reality device. The sound boundary may represent a predicted maximum distance at which the communication can be understood.
