Abstract:
Technologies for stress monitoring and task assignment are disclosed. A wearable monitoring system worn by each user of a group of users monitors stress of each user. The wearable monitoring system transmits stress data to a server. The server analyzes the stress data of the users, determines a stress level of each of the users based on the stress data, and assigns one or more tasks to one or more users, based on the determined stress levels.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for receiving a communication on one or more user devices within a vehicle and redirecting the communications based at least in part on one or more user profiles associated with occupants of the vehicle is disclosed. The redirection of the communication may further be based at least in part on one or more sensor signals or a drive characteristic associated with the vehicle.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention describe a system to efficiently execute gesture recognition algorithms. Embodiments of the invention describe a power efficient staged gesture recognition pipeline including multimodal interaction detection, context based optimized recognition, and context based optimized training and continuous learning. Embodiments of the invention further describe a system to accommodate many types of algorithms depending on the type of gesture that is needed in any particular situation. Examples of recognition algorithms include but are not limited to, HMM for complex dynamic gestures (e.g. write a number in the air), Decision Trees (DT) for static poses, peak detection for coarse shake/whack gestures or inertial methods (INS) for pitch/roll detection.
Abstract:
Computer-readable storage media, apparatus and method associated with storing a copy of local data in a historical data store, among other embodiments, are disclosed herein. In embodiments, one or more computer-readable storage media may contain instructions which when executed by a computing device may provide access of local data to one or more applications on the computing device for contemporaneous processing by the one or more applications. The local data may be associated, at least in part, with one or more sensors of the computing device. In some embodiments, a copy of the local data may be transmitted to a remote historical data store where it may be categorized and correlated with data from computing devices associated with one or more other users for further processing.
Abstract:
Through status awareness, a handheld communications device may determine the location, activity, and/or physical or emotional state of the user. This information may in turn be used for various purposes, such as 1) determining how to alert the user of an incoming communication, 2) determining what format to use for communicating with the user, and 3) determining how to present the user's status to another person's communication device.
Abstract:
Techniques for pose estimation and false positive filtering for gesture recognition are described. For example, a method may comprise receiving data from one or more sensors indicating motion of an electronic device, determining if the motion comprises a gesture motion using one or more statistical gesture recognition algorithms, determining a start pose and an end pose for the gesture motion, determining if the start pose and end pose of the gesture motion correspond to a start pose and end pose of a gesture model corresponding to the gesture motion, and triggering a gesture event if the start pose and end pose of the gesture motion match the start pose and end pose of the gesture model. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
Mobile device operation using grip intensity. An embodiment of a mobile device includes a touch sensor to detect contact or proximity by a user of the mobile device; a memory to store indicators of grip intensity in relation to the touch sensor; and a processor to evaluate contact to the touch sensor. The processor is to compare a contact with the touch sensor to the indicators of grip shape and firmness to determine grip intensity, and the mobile device is to receive an input for a function of the mobile device based at least in part on determined grip intensity for the mobile device.

Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention provides a method of using probabilistic techniques in trending and profiling of user behavior in order to offer recommendations, comprising detecting patterns in user behavior over time thereby enabling a personal device associated with said user to predict what the user is likely to do on a given day or what the user intends to accomplish in an action that has begun.
