Abstract:
The present description discloses systems and methods for changing the state of a device. One embodiment may include a device configured to provide a device in a first state, receive a signal indicative of first angular data of the device, and compare the first angular data to a first threshold. The device may then execute instructions to initiate a timer when the first angular data is greater than the first threshold, receive a signal indicative of a second angular data of the device, and compare the second angular data to a second threshold. When the second angular data is less than the second threshold and the time passed is within a pre-determined time period, the device may execute instructions to transition the device to a second state.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are described herein related to enabling service providers to address voice-activated commands. An example method may involve: receiving a first utterance on a computing device, where the first utterance includes a first command; selecting a service action corresponding to the first command; determining a selected service provider for the selected service action, where the selected service provider is selected from a plurality of service providers; and sending a service fulfillment request to the selected service provider to execute the selected service action.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable media are described herein related to a user interface (UI) that can be implemented on a head-mountable device (HMD). The UI can include a voice-navigable UI. The voice-navigable UI can include a voice navigable menu that includes one or more menu items comprising an original menu item and an added command menu item. The original menu item can be associated with one or more original commands, and the added menu item can be associated with one or more added commands, including a first added command. The interface can also present a first visible menu that includes at least a portion of the voice navigable menu. Responsive to a first utterance comprising the first added command, the interface can invoke the first added command. In some embodiments, the interface can display a second visible menu, wherein the first added command can be displayed above other menu items.

Abstract:
Provided are methods and computer-readable media for providing recommended entities based on a user's external social graph, such as asymmetric social graph of a social networking service. In some embodiments, entities responsive to a search query or other request may be obtained. Each entity may be evaluated to determine if the entity is associated with a contact from a user's social graph. The association may include an evaluation (e.g., a rating, review, other evaluation or combination thereof) of the entity by the contact. Additionally, the contacts having associations with an entity may be ranked based on a relationship score with a user. The entities having associations with the contacts from a user's social graph may be provided as recommended entities to the user, and the association may be annotated to the recommended entity for viewing by the user.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for assisted speech input. In one example, the method may involve (a) designating a first node of a tree as a current node. Each node in the tree is associated with a speech input data, and the first node includes one or more child nodes. The method may further involve (b) removing all nodes from a first group of nodes, (c) copying each child node of the current node to the first group, (d) removing all nodes from a second group of nodes, (e) moving a selection of nodes from the first group to the second group, and (f) presenting information associated with each node in the second group. The method may include additional elements depending on whether there is a match between a received speech input and a child node of the current node.
