Patent abstract
The method and system of the present invention allows the media content providers to count the number of people watching the media content being streamed and apply the viewer headcount pricing model like how it is done in the movie theaters to capture revenues lost at the movie theaters from streaming video content directly to the home. The central component of the viewer headcount pricing model is the utilization of the facial recognition range camera and/or motion sensor to determine the number of viewers and charge the customers by the headcount.
