Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein describe intelligent e-book readers which provide a significant improvement over the conventional e-books that simply render static content. The intelligent e-book readers may customize a rendered e-book based on, for example, the reading level and preferences of the user, the user's social media profile and activity, and current events. Furthermore, the intelligent e-book reader may provide additional augmented reality (AR)/virtual reality (VR) content associated with one or more portions of the rendered e-book. The intelligent e-book reader may also facilitate virtual, real time communication between multiple users and experts. The intelligent e-book reader may also facilitate one or more users to provide feedback and suggestions to authors and future movie-makers. The intelligent e-book reader may automatically determine difficult portions of an e-book based on the virtual communications and/or real time eye-tracking of a user.
