Abstract: Apparatus, systems, methods, and related computer program products for optimizing a schedule of setpoint temperatures used in the control of an HVAC system. The systems disclosed include an energy management system in operation with an intelligent, network-connected thermostat located at a structure. The thermostat includes a schedule of setpoint temperatures that is used to control an HVAC system associated with a structure in which the thermostat is located. The schedule of setpoint temperatures is continually adjusted by small, unnoticeable amounts so that the schedule migrates from the original schedule to an optimal schedule. The optimal schedule may be optimal in terms of energy consumption or some other terms.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for interactively, graphically displaying and reporting performance information to a user of an HVAC system controlled by a self-programming network-connected thermostat. The information is made on a remote display device such as a smartphone, tablet computer or other computer, and includes a graphical daily or monthly summary each of several days or months respectively. In response to a user selection of a day, detailed performance information is graphically displayed that can include an indication of HVAC activity on a timeline, the number of hours of HVAC activity, as well as one or more symbols on a timeline indicating setpoint changes, and when a setpoint was changed due to non-occupancy.

Abstract: The disclosure provides technology for enhancing the ability of a computing device to conserve computing resources while providing special effects that are aligned with a text source being read aloud. An example method includes identifying effects data for a text source, wherein the effects data correlates a physical effect with an audible action of a user; receiving audio data comprising a plurality of audible actions, wherein at least one of the plurality of audible actions comprises a spoken word of the text source; determining, by a processing device, that a triggering condition pertaining to the effects data and the text source is satisfied; loading content for the physical effect prior to an occurrence of the audible action, and providing the physical effect to modify an environment of the user.

Abstract: The disclosure provides technology for enhancing the ability of a computing device to detect when a user has discontinued reading a text source. An example method includes receiving audio data comprising a spoken word associated with a text source, wherein the audio data comprises a first duration and a second duration; comparing the audio data with data of the text source, wherein the first duration of the audio data corresponds with the data of the text source; calculating, by a processing device, a correspondence measure between the second duration of the audio data and the data of the text source; and responsive to determining the correspondence measure satisfies a threshold, transmitting a signal to cease comparing audio data with the data of the text source.

Abstract: An example method for identifying a reading location in a text source as a user reads the text source aloud includes determining phoneme data of the text source, the text source comprising a sequence of words; receiving audio data comprising a spoken word associated with the text source; comparing, by a processing device, the phoneme data of the text source and phoneme data of the audio data; and identifying a location in the sequence of words based on the comparing phoneme data.

Abstract: The disclosure provides technology for enabling a computing device to provide context sensitive special effects that supplement a text source as it is read aloud. An example method includes receiving, by a processing device, audio data comprising a spoken word of a user, analyzing contextual data associated with the user, determining a match between the audio data and data of a text source; and initiating a physical effect in response to the determining the match, wherein the physical effect corresponds to the text source and is based on the contextual data.
