Abstract: Providing at least one contextually relevant suggestion to one or more users of an ongoing message exchange thread between the users. The suggestion is provided for presentation to the user(s) via user interface output device(s) of computing device(s) of the user(s). The suggestion indicates a query that can be submitted to an automated assistant to cause the automated assistant to incorporate, into the message exchange thread, content that is responsive to the query. In some implementations, the suggestion is a selectable suggestion and content that is responsive to the query is incorporated into the message exchange thread in response to user interface input that is directed to the selectable suggestion. In some implementations, the suggestion is determined based on one or more messages that have already been communicated between users of the message exchange thread.

Abstract: A system is described that determines, based on information associated with a user of a computing device, an event for initiating an interaction between the user and an assistant executing at the computing device. The system selects, based on the event and from a plurality of actions performed by the assistant, at least one action associated with the event. The system determines, based on the at least one action, whether to output a notification of the event which includes an indication of the event and a request to perform the at least one action associated with the event. Responsive to determining to output the notification of the event, the system sends, to the assistant, the notification of the event for output during the interaction between the user and the assistant.

Abstract: A stand assembly for an electronic device includes a neck portion with a first end that holds and extends from the electronic device, a spine portion that is coupled via a joint structure to a second end of the neck portion, the joint structure being configured to provide a first rotational degree of freedom of the neck portion with respect to the spine portion, and one or more interconnect wires. The one or more interconnect wires include a first wire portion, a second wire portion and a third wire portion, the first wire portion being routed through an interior of the neck portion, the second wire portion being routed along a surface of the spine portion, and the third wire portion being routed though the joint structure from the surface of the spine portion to the interior of the neck portion.

Abstract: Techniques of charging electronic devices involve directing electrical power from a first device to the battery of a second device in response to the first device being in a first state, and directing electrical power from the second device to the battery of the first device in response to the first device being in a second state. For example, in response to a connection being established between a first device (e.g., a tablet computer) and a second device (e.g., a monitor), a charger of the first device detects a state of charge of the battery of the first device and a state of charge of the second device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for obtaining data about a network having at least a first node and a second node. A server transmits to the first node a first request for the first node to send a communication to the second node. The server is outside of the network, and the first request includes a first address of the first node and a second address of the second node. The server receives, from the first node, an indication of whether the communication to the second node is successful. The server receives, from the first node, a second request for access to a file stored on the server, determines that the file is stored locally at the second node, and transmits, to the first node, an instruction to retrieve the file from the second node, when the communication to the second node is successful.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for providing contextual information to a user. In one aspect, a method includes receiving, from a user device, a query-independent request for contextual information relevant to an active resource displayed in an application environment on the user device, generating a first set of queries from displayed content from the resource, generating a second set of queries from the first set of queries, determining a quality score for each of the queries of the second set of queries, selecting one or more of the queries from the second set of queries based on their respective quality scores, and providing, to the user device for each of the selected one or more queries of the second set of queries, a respective user interface element for display with the active resource.

Abstract: Systems and methods of security are provided, including a sensor to detect a location of at least one user, and generate detection data according to the detected location of the at least one user, a processor communicatively coupled to the sensor to receive the detection data, to determine whether the at least one user is occupying a building according to the detection data, and to store allowance data that sets one or more preferences for the at least one user, and an alarm device, communicatively coupled to at least the processor, that is armed or disarmed by the processor according to the allowance data and the determination as to whether the at least one user is occupying the building.

Abstract: A method includes sequentially outputting from an imaging sensor each pixel row of a set of pixel rows of an image captured by the imaging sensor. The method further includes displaying, at a display device, a pixel row representative of a first pixel row of the captured image prior to a second pixel row of the captured image being output by the imaging sensor. An apparatus includes an imaging sensor having a first lens that imparts a first type of spatial distortion, a display device coupled to the imaging sensor, the display to display imagery captured by the imaging sensor with the first spatial distortion, and an eyepiece lens aligned with the display, the eyepiece lens imparting a second type of spatial distortion that compensates for the first type of spatial distortion.

Abstract: A method and system for improving access to network content are described. Aspects of the disclosure minimize the delay between a navigation event and a network response by prerendering the next navigation event. For example, the method and system may predict a likely next uniform resource locator during web browsing to preemptively request content from the network before the user selects the corresponding link on a web page. The methods and systems describe a variety of manners for prerendering content and managing and configuring prerendering operations.

Abstract: In a system for determining intent of a detected virtual contact between a user and a virtual object in a virtual reality environment, contact maybe detected between a designated selection device, manipulated by the user, and the virtual object. It may then be determined whether or not the detected contact between the designated selection device and the virtual object is intention. Determination of whether or not the detected contact is intentional may be based on at least one of an approach direction of the virtual contact with the virtual object, an approach velocity of the virtual contact with the virtual object, or an approach acceleration of the virtual contact with the virtual object.
