This application claims priority to Chinese patent application no. CN 201410531591. 5, filed Oct. 10, 2014, which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
The present disclosure relates to the field of Internet technologies, and in particular, to a method, apparatus, and system for pushing network content.
With the rapid development of Internet technologies, mobile online and Internet interaction have become part of people's daily life. Many users interact with the Internet constantly. For them, finding and presenting content on the Internet more efficiently has become an important issue.
In some solutions, network content can be selected for a user according to historical behaviors and habits of the user. For example, for a user who often watches videos about swimming competitions, when the user visits the same website again, the latest videos about swimming competitions can be recommended to the user. Or, when the user visits a shopping website, products related to swimming articles can be recommended to the user. However, selecting network content for a user according to behaviors and habits of the user can fail to detect the current status of the user, and the result of selection might not be accurate.
Implementations of the present disclosure provide a method, apparatus, and system for pushing network content, which can be used to present users with currently needed network content.
A method for pushing network content includes receiving an identity of a user and a current status parameter of the user, acquiring user information associated with the identity, the user information including personal information of the user and a browsing history of the user, selecting network content according to the status parameter and the user information, and pushing the network content to a terminal device, the terminal device configured to display the network content.
In some implementations, since network content is selected for the user based on the current status parameter of the user and the browsing history of the user, various aspects can be taken into consideration for recommending network content to the user, so that network content that is currently needed by users can be presented more accurately.
Optionally, the status parameter includes a current motion status and sleep status of the user.
In the optional solution, since network content is selected for the user based on the current motion status, sleep status of the user and the browsing history of the user, various aspects can be taken into consideration for recommending network content to the user, so that network content that is currently needed by users can be presented more accurately.
Optionally, the status parameter further includes a current heart rate of the user, and the selecting network content according to the status parameter and the user information includes determining whether the current heart rate of the user reaches a preset threshold, determining whether the current motion status of the user is a preset motion status based on a determination that the current heart rate of the user reaches the preset threshold, and selecting network content according to the determined current motion status and the user information.
In the optional solution, since network content is selected for the user based on the current heart rate and motion status of the user and the browsing history of the user, various aspects can be taken into consideration for recommending network content to the user, so that network content that is currently needed by users can be presented more accurately.
Optionally, prior to receiving an identity of a user and a current status parameter of the user, the method further includes associating the identity and the user information, and storing the associated identity and user information.
In the optional solution, user information can be acquired according to a pre-stored association, so that video content can be recommended to the user more accurately.
Optionally, the method further includes recording the current status parameter of the user and current browsing content of the user, associating the current status parameter of the user and the current browsing content of the user, storing the associated browsing content in a browsing history corresponding to the user information, updating the browsing history corresponding to the user information.
In the optional solution, the current status parameter and the current browsing content of the user are associated and stored, so that the current browsing history of the user can be updated in real time, and network content can be recommended to the user more accurately.
In one aspect, a method for pushing network content includes identifying a current status parameter of a user, the status parameter including a current motion status and sleep status of the user and a current heart rate of the user, and sending the status parameter and an identity of the user.
In some implementations, the current status parameter of the user can be detected, so that when selecting network content for the user, a network side selects network content for the user based on the current status parameter of the user and the browsing history of the user.

In the drawings:
Certain implementations of the present disclosure will be described hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be appreciated that the preferred implementations described herein are merely used for describing and explaining the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.
An implementation of the present disclosure provides a method for pushing network content, which is used to present users with currently needed network content. As shown in
At Step S11, an identity of a user and a current status parameter of the user is received.
At Step S12, user information associated with the identity can be acquired. The user information can include, for example, personal information of the user and a browsing history of the user. The personal information of the user can include, for example, the age, gender, interests and other information of the user.
At Step S13, network content is selected according to the status parameter and the user information.
At Step S14, the network content can be pushed to a terminal device, the terminal device being configured to display the network content.
Since network content is selected for the user on the basis of the current status parameter of the user and the browsing history of the user, various aspects can be taken into consideration for recommending network content to the user, so that network content that is currently needed by users can be presented more accurately.
In one implementation, in step S11, the current status parameter of the user can include, for example, a current motion status, a sleep status of the user, or both. The identity of the user may be directly stored in a smart wearable device such as a smart band (e.g., wristband or ring), or may be stored in the smart wearable device in the form of a data packet. The smart wearable device can include a Bluetooth chip installed therein, and can send the identity of the user or the data packet containing the identity of the user via Bluetooth. The terminal device (e.g., a smart television, a smart phone, or a computer) receives and parses the data packet to obtain the identity of the user and sends the identity of the user to a network side (e.g., a server), or the network side can directly receive and parse the data packet to obtain the identity of the user.
Moreover, when the identity of the user is stored in a smart wearable device in the form of a data packet, the smart wearable device can include, for example, a motion tracker and a sleep tracker installed therein, where the motion tracker is configured to detect the current motion status of the user. For example, the motion tracker can be configured to detect that the user is running, and the sleep tracker can be used to detect the current sleep status of the user (e.g., the user just got up). The smart wearable device detects and sends the current status parameter of the user. The terminal device (e.g., a smart television, a smart phone, or a computer) receives the current status parameter of the user and forwards the current status parameter of the user to the network side, or the network side can directly receive the current status parameter of the user.
For example, when the motion status of the user is “swimming”, the network side may recommend network content related to swimming, such as videos about swimming competitions or websites selling swimming articles, to the user according to the browsing history of the user. In another example, when the sleep status of the user is “just got up”, the network side may select, according to the browsing history of the user, network content that the user usually browses during this period of time, and then recommend the network content to the user.
In one implementation, the current status parameter of the user further includes, for example, a current heart rate of the user, in addition to the current motion status or the sleep status of the user. In this case, step S13 can be further implemented in steps S131-S133 as follows.
At Step S131, it is determined whether the current heart rate of the user reaches a preset threshold. For example, assuming the normal heart rate of the user is 70 to 90 beats/minute, the preset threshold can be set to a value slightly higher than 70 to 90 beats/minute. For example, the preset threshold can be set to 120 beats/minute.
At step S132, when the current heart rate of the user reaches the preset threshold, it can be determined whether the current motion status of the user is a preset motion status. The preset motion status can be a factor causing the current heart rate of the user to reach the preset threshold. The preset motion status can be associated with, for example, certain activities causing the current heart rate of the user to reach a certain preset threshold. For example, the preset motion status can include, for example, running, swimming, or cycling.
At step S133, network content can be selected according to the determined current motion status from step S132, and the user information. If it is determined that the current motion status of the user is a preset motion status, it can be indicated that the current increase in heart rate of the user caused by exercise, and accordingly network content related to exercise can be selected for the user.
If it is determined that the current motion status of the user is not the preset motion status, it can be indicated that the current increase in heart rate of the user is irrelevant to exercise. Thus, it can be estimated that the current increase in the heart rate of the user is caused by emotional fluctuation, and accordingly, network content that can relieve emotional stress may be selected for the user. For example, when the user visits a shopping website or is near a shopping store, discounts, coupons or similar promotions may be recommended to the user to stimulate user consumption to help the user relieve emotional stress.
In one implementation, prior to performing step S11, one or more of the following steps may be performed, such as associating the identity and the user information, and storing the associated identity and user information.
In one implementation, the method further includes, for example, steps S15-S18 as follows.
At step S15, the current status parameter of the user and current browsing content of the user are recorded.
At step S16, Associate the current status parameter of the user and the current browsing content of the user can be associated.
At step S17, the associated browsing content can be stored in a browsing history corresponding to the user information.
At step S18, the browsing history can be updated corresponding to the user information.
Further, an implementation of the present disclosure provides a method for pushing network content, as shown in
At step S21, a current status parameter of a user is identified. For example, the status parameter includes a current motion status of the user, a sleep status of the user, a current heart rate of the user, or any combination of the above.
At step S22, the status parameter and an identity of the user are sent. The status parameter and the identity of the user are sent to, for example, a network side (e.g., server) or a terminal device.
For example, the method may be applied to a smart wearable device such as a smart band described above. The smart wearable device can be used to identify the current status parameter of the user, and send the status parameter and the identity of the user to a terminal device (for example, a smart television, a smart phone, or a computer), or the network side. When the smart wearable device sends the status parameter and the identity of the user to the terminal device, the terminal device forwards the status parameter and the identity of the user to the network side. Then, the network side recommends network content to the user according to the received status parameter and identity of the user. When identifying the current status parameter of the user, the smart wearable device can perform the identification by using a motion tracker, a sleep tracker or a heart rate tracker installed therein, or any combination of the above.
In this implementation, the current status parameter of the user can be detected, so that when selecting network content for the user, the network side selects network content for the user based on the current status parameter of the user and the browsing history of the user. Thus, various aspects can be taken into consideration for recommending network content to the user, so that network content that is currently needed by users can be presented more accurately.
At step S31, a smart band identifies a current status parameter of a user, for example, a status indicating that the user is swimming.
At step S32, the smart band sends an identity of the user and the current status parameter of the user to a terminal device, such as a smart television.
At step S33, the smart television forwards the identity of the user and the current status parameter of the user that are received to a network side.
At step S34, the network side acquires user information associated with the identity of the user. The user information can include, for example, personal information of the user, a browsing history of the user, or any combination of the above.
At step S35, the network side selects network content according to the current status parameter of the user and the user information.
At Step S36, the network side pushes the selected network content to the terminal device, such as the smart television.
At Step S37, the terminal device, such as the smart television, displays the received network content.
In this implementation, the smart band detects the current status parameter of the user and sends the current status parameter of the user to the network side, so that when selecting network content for the user, the network side selects network content for the user based on the current status parameter of the user and the browsing history of the user. Thus, various aspects can be taken into consideration for recommending network content to the user, so that network content that is currently needed by users can be presented more accurately.
At step S41, a smart band identifies a current heart rate and motion status of a user.
At step S42, the smart band sends an identity of the user and the current heart rate and motion status of the user to a network side.
At step S43, the network side acquires user information associated with the identity of the user.
At step S44, the network side determines whether the current heart rate of the user reaches a preset threshold. For example, assuming that the preset threshold is set to 120 beats/minute, if the current heart rate of the user reaches the preset threshold of 120 beats/minute, step S45 is performed. If the current heart rate of the user does not reach the preset threshold of 120 beats/minute, step S46 is performed.
At step S45, the network side determines whether the current motion status of the user is a preset motion status. For example, assuming that the preset motion status includes, for example, swimming and running, if the current motion status of the user is a preset motion status, step S46 is performed. If the current motion status of the user is not the preset motion status, step S47 is performed.
At step S46, the network side selects network content related to the current motion status for the user according to the user information.
At step S47, the network side selects network content for the user according to the user information. The selection can be configured to help relieve emotional stress of the user.
In this implementation, the smart band detects the current heart rate and motion status of the user, so that the network side can select network content for the user based on the current heart rate and motion status of the user and the browsing history of the user. Thus, various aspects can be taken into consideration for recommending network content to the user, so that network content that is currently needed by users can be presented more accurately.
Corresponding to the method provided in the implementations of the present disclosure, an implementation of the present disclosure further provides an apparatus for pushing network content, as shown in
The apparatus can include a receiving module 501, configured to receive an identity of a user and a current status parameter of the user.

The apparatus can further include a selection module 503, configured to select network content according to the status parameter and the user information.
The apparatus can further include a push module 504, configured to push the network content to a terminal device, the terminal device configured to display the network content.
In one implementation, the selection module 503 includes, for example, a first determining unit, configured to determine whether a current heart rate of the user reaches a preset threshold.
The selection module 503 further includes a second determining unit, configured to determine whether a current motion status of the user is a preset motion status when the current heart rate of the user reaches the preset threshold. The selection module 503 further includes a selection unit, configured to select network content according to a determining result and the user information.
In one implementation, as shown in
In this implementation of the present disclosure, since network content is selected for the user on the basis of the current status parameter of the user and the browsing history of the user, various aspects can be taken into consideration for recommending network content to the user, so that network content that is currently needed by users can be presented more accurately.
