摘要:
Systems and methods for proximity detection between electronic devices are disclosed. One or more electronic devices transmit signals to a proximity server, which determines whether the first electronic device may be proximate the second electronic device. The proximity server transmits a signal to the first electronic device and the second device, and in response to the signal, the first and second electronic devices activate an environmental sensor, collect at least one sample of environmental data, extract at least one feature set of the environmental data, generate a first obscured feature from the feature set, transmit the first and second obscured feature sets to the proximity server. The proximity server uses the first obscured feature set and the second obscured feature set to determine whether the first electronic device and the second electronic device are proximate.

A method may include detecting motion of a mobile device and inferring from the motion a first activity of a user of the mobile device. The method may also include evaluating a signal quality of a radio signal received by a signal module and altering an operational mode of the signal module based on the signal quality and the first activity.

Many embodiments may comprise logic such as hardware and/or code to implement user interface for traversal of long sorted lists, via audible mapping of the lists, using sensor based gesture recognition, audio and tactile feedback and button selection while on the go. In several embodiments, such user interface modalities are physically small in size, enabling a user to be truly mobile by reducing the cognitive load required to operate the device. For some embodiments, the user interface may be divided across multiple worn devices, such as a mobile device, watch, earpiece, and ring. Rotation of the watch may be translated into navigation instructions, allowing the user to traverse the list while the user receives audio feedback via the earpiece to describe items in the list as well as audio feedback regarding the navigation state. Many embodiments offer the user a simple user interface to traverse the list without visual feedback.

Through status awareness, a handheld communications device may determine the location, activity, and/or physical or emotional state of the user. This information may in turn be used for various purposes, such as 1) determining how to alert the user of an incoming communication, 2) determining what format to use for communicating with the user, and 3) determining how to present the user's status to another person's communication device.
摘要:
A mechanism is described for outsourcing context-aware application-related activities to a sensor hub. A method of embodiments of the invention includes outsourcing a plurality of functionalities from an application processor to a sensor hub processor of a sensor hub by configuring the sensor hub processor, and performing one or more context-aware applications using one or more sensors coupled to the sensor hub processor.

Embodiments may comprise logic such as hardware and/or code to map content of a device such as a mobile device, a laptop, a desktop, or a server, to a two dimensional field or table and map user poses or movements to the coordinates within the table to offer quick access to the content by a user. Many embodiments, for example, utilize three wireless peripherals such as a watch, ring, and headset connected to a mobile Internet device (MID) comprising an audible user interface and an auditory mapper to access to the content. The audible user interface may communicatively couple with the peripherals to receive pose data that describes the motion or movements associated with one or more of the peripherals and to provide feedback such as audible items and, in some embodiments, other feedback.

In an embodiment, a system includes a wearable device having a sensor that detects whisper data from a user. The whisper data may include vibrational data, audio data, and/or biometric signals, and correspond to words whispered by the user at a first decibel level. The system also includes a processor communicatively coupled to the sensor that extracts features associated with the whisper data including frequencies and/or amplitudes associated with the whispered data, and generates speech data based on the whisper data and the features. The speech data corresponds to the words spoken at a second decibel level, where the second decibel level is greater than the first decibel level.
摘要:
A method is provided. The method includes receiving inputs typed by a user of a keyboard and analyzing the inputs to identify typing errors made by the user. The method also includes customizing a layout of the keyboard to reduce the identified typing errors.
摘要:
Embodiments of the invention describe a system to efficiently execute gesture recognition algorithms. Embodiments of the invention describe a power efficient staged gesture recognition pipeline including multimodal interaction detection, context based optimized recognition, and context based optimized training and continuous learning. Embodiments of the invention further describe a system to accommodate many types of algorithms depending on the type of gesture that is needed in any particular situation. Examples of recognition algorithms include but are not limited to, HMM for complex dynamic gestures (e.g. write a number in the air), Decision Trees (DT) for static poses, peak detection for coarse shake/whack gestures or inertial methods (INS) for pitch/roll detection.
摘要:
Embodiments utilize a framework for modeling user's social roles in online self-expression tools such as blog or social networking, via semantic modeling techniques. The different ways users engage with content when stating explicit interests in their profile and via social expressions in a community are modeled. Certain themes guide the patterns users follow for expressing their interests in this community. An embodiment allows users to track how their posts and comments reflect with their online behavior. An embodiment infers the needs of the online community and makes suggestions or recommendations or sends alerts to users. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
