Abstract

The present invention discloses a system, method, apparatus, and computer usable product code adapting a media stream based upon biometric feedback. The system can include one or more biometric sensor, a media handling component, an importance inference engine, and a media processing component. The biometric sensor can be able to receive biometric feedback from at least one user. The media handling component can be a media creation component (e.g., video recorder, camera, etc.) and/or a media playback component (e.g., video player, music player, etc.). The importance inference engine can be configured to analyze biometric feedback received from the biometric sensor to determine an emotional interest level that a provider of the biometric feedback has in the media of the media handling component. The media processing component can modify the media of the media handling component based upon the emotion interest level determined by the importance inference engine.
