Abstract:
In embodiments, an apparatus for providing adaptive wireless communication management may include a wireless interference scanner to gather interference data of wireless communications of at least two wireless protocols in free space surrounding the apparatus. The apparatus may further include a communications module, coupled to the wireless interference scanner, to interact with a wireless configuration service provider to send the interference data to, and from which to receive optimal channel settings for, a wireless device to wirelessly communicate at least in part through the free space surrounding the apparatus. The apparatus may further include a channel and frequency configuration module, coupled to the communications module, to configure the wireless device, based, at least in part, on the optimal channel settings.
Abstract:
According to various aspects of the present disclosure, a system and associated method and functions to anticipate a need of a user are disclosed. In some embodiments, the disclosed system includes a data acquisition unit, a prediction unit, and an operation unit. The data acquisition unit is configured to detect user information, the user information including physiological and non-physiological data associated with the user. The prediction unit is operatively connected to the data acquisition unit to receive the user information, and is configured to anticipate a user need (e.g., need for medical assistance, need for language translation support, etc.) based on pre-defined user preferences, as well as on the physiological data or the non-physiological data or both. And, the operation unit is configured to automatically perform an operation, without user input, to address the user need (e.g., contact a medical facility, provide a language translation application to the user, etc.).
Abstract:
According to various aspects of the present disclosure, a system and associated method and functions to determine an emotional state of a user are disclosed. In some embodiments, the disclosed system includes a data acquisition unit, an emotion determination unit, and an emotion reporting unit. The data acquisition unit is configured to detect user information including physiological and non-physiological data associated with the user. The emotion determination unit is operatively connected to the data acquisition unit, and is configured to process the user information to determine an emotional state of the user. The emotion reporting unit is configured to communicate the emotional state based on a predetermined reporting preference to an application of a communication device, e.g., a social-networking application to share the emotional state of the user such that other members of the social network associated with the user are notified of the user's emotional state.
Abstract:
Various embodiments are generally directed a method and apparatus having a touch screen module to receive first input data from a touch screen sensor based on one or more detected touch inputs at a first location of a virtual object displayed on a display. In addition, an ultrasonic module may receive second input data from an ultrasonic sensor based on detected non-touch motion associated with the virtual object. The detected non-touch motion may be tracked from the first location to a second location in a direction away from the first location based on the second input data and used to determine the second location for the virtual object based on the tracking.
Abstract:
In embodiments, apparatuses, methods and storage media for personalized speech recognition are described. In various embodiments, a personalized speech recognition system (“PSRS”) may receive personal speech recognition training data (“PTD”) that is associated with a user to facilitate recognition of speech from the user. The PSRS may train a speech recognition module using the received PTD. The user may provide the PTD using a mobile device under control of the user. The PTD may be generated and stored on the mobile device through actions of the user, such as by using the mobile device to record a corpus of speech examples by the user. The user may subsequently facilitate provisioning of the PTD to the PSRS using the mobile device, such as through a wired or wireless network. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
