Abstract:
Techniques for determining brand information and refining a position of a mobile device are described herein. An example of a method for displaying branding information on a mobile device includes receiving a reference image feature data table based on a rough location of the mobile device, such that the reference image feature data table includes a collection of entity records and wherein each entity record includes a plurality of logo image feature fields, obtaining an image including a displayed logo, utilizing an image recognition process and the reference image feature data table on the image to determine a recognized logo, and displaying brand information based on the recognized logo.
Abstract:
Disclosed are systems, apparatus, devices, methods, computer program products, and other implementations, including a method that includes determining location of a device, and controlling monitoring of behavior of one or more processes executing on the device based on the determined location of the device to identify potential one or more security-risky processes from the monitored one or more executing processes. In some embodiments, controlling the monitoring of the behavior of the one or more processes may include one or more of, for example, adjusting frequency of the monitoring of the one or more processes based on the determined location of the device, adjusting level of detail obtained for the monitored behavior of the one or more processes based on the determined location of the device, and/or adjusting features being observed for the monitored one or more processes based on the determined location of the device.
Abstract:
Described are devices, methods, techniques and systems for locating a portable services access transceiver (PSAT) for use in aiding emergency “911” services. In one implementation, one or more conditions indicative of movement of a PSAT may initiate a process for obtaining a new estimated location of the PSAT. In another implementation, a location of a PSAT may be determined or updated using indoor navigation techniques.
Abstract:
An access node may enhance the upload experience by performing media processing services at the access node. The access node may receive media content from one or more client devices. The media content may include a plurality of content items. The access node may process at least a first portion of the media content to produce processed media content. Several examples of media processing services are described, including an image or audio enhancement process, discarding low quality content items, discarding redundant content items, categorizing/ranking the content items, facial recognition, and the generation of a compilation content item. After processing at least the first portion of the media content to produce processed media content, the access node may transmit the processed media content to a server.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided in which a mobile station may determine a first round-trip time (RTT) for a first measurement related communication between the transceiver and a first network device, wherein the first RTT comprises a uniform delay of time applied during the first measurement related communication by the first network device; Determine a second RTT for a second measurement related communication between the transceiver and a second network device, wherein the second RTT comprises the uniform delay of time applied during the second measurement related communication by the second network device; and determine, at least in part, a position of the mobile station with regard to at least the first and second network devices based, at least in part, on the first RTT and the second RTT.
Abstract:
Various methods, apparatuses and/or articles of manufacture are provided which may be implemented by one or more electronic devices to identify potential anomalies in one or more electronic files used to support mobile device positioning within a specific environment. Various methods, apparatuses and/or articles of manufacture are also provided which may be implemented by one or more electronic devices to alter one or more electronic files used to support mobile device positioning within a specific environment.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are presented for generating and updating heat maps for terrestrial wireless transceivers located in an area or venue. According to some embodiments, a method may include obtaining, by a mobile device, first signal data for a terrestrial transceiver and generating, by the mobile device, a transceiver heat map using the first signal data. The method may further include displaying, by the mobile device, a request to gather additional signal data for the terrestrial transceiver and obtaining, by the mobile device, second signal data for the terrestrial transceiver. The method may further include generating, by the mobile device, an updated transceiver heat map using the second signal data and displaying, by the mobile device, the updated transceiver heat map.
Abstract:
Disclosed are systems, apparatus, devices, method, computer program products, and other implementations, including a method that includes capturing an image of a scene by an image capturing unit of a device that includes at least one sensor, determining relative device orientation of the device based, at least in part, on determined location of at least one vanishing point in the captured image of the scene, and performing one or more calibration operations for the at least one sensor based, at least in part, on the determined relative device orientation.
Abstract:
Various methods, apparatuses and articles of manufacture are provided which may be used in determining an altitude of a mobile device. For example, an electronic device may select a subset of reporting mobile devices located within a particular environment, estimate a reference parameter that is indicative, at least in part, of a reference altitude within the particular region, e.g., based, at least in part, on one or more altitude measurements for one or more of the reporting mobile devices, and initiate transmission of the reference parameter to at least a target mobile device. In another example, a mobile device may obtain such a reference parameter, and estimate its altitude based, at least in part, on the reference parameter.
Abstract:
The subject matter disclosed herein relates to systems, methods, apparatuses, articles, etc. for mobile device locating in conjunction with localized environments. For certain example implementations, a method may comprise obtaining at a mobile device one or more signals comprising information indicative of a location thereof. The information may be transmitted to one or more servers. A location context identifier (LCI) may be received responsive to the transmitting, with the LCI corresponding to a localized environment at which the mobile device is located. The LCI may be transmitted to the one or more servers. Location-based data may be received responsive to the transmitting of the LCI, with the location-based data being associated with the LCI and pertaining to the localized environment. The location of the mobile device may be determined with respect to the localized environment based, at least in part, on the location-based data. Other example implementations are described herein.
