SMART ADVERTISING TIMING IN VIDEO STREAMING FROM INTERNET OF THINGS (IoT) SENSORS

Aspects of the present disclosure relate generally to presenting advertisements on a device and, more particularly, to managing the timing and duration for presenting advertisements in streaming video from activities detected by IoT sensors. For example, a computer-implemented method includes: receiving, by a processor set, an opt-in from a user; in response to the opt-in, detecting, by the processor set and via an Internet of Things (IoT) sensor, activities of the user watching a streaming video on a client device; determining, by the processor set, an advertisement tolerance level of the user based on the detected activities of the user watching the streaming video; determining, by the processor set, an optimal advertisement interval in the streaming video based on the advertisement tolerance level of the user; and streaming, by the processor set, advertisements during the optimal advertising interval in the streaming video on the client device.
