Abstract
Systems and methods are provided herein for transmitting a portion of a media asset containing an object to a user. In many media assets, specific features appear at portions of a program that users find interesting. These features can be compared with a database of stored objects that commonly appear in media assets to determine the object corresponding to the feature. The system may store data related to the media asset containing the object and, if the user is not currently accessing the media asset, may transmit the data to the user's mobile device.
