    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed at pairing a host electronic device with a peripheral electronic device using visual recognition and deep learning techniques. In particular, the host device may receive an indication of a peripheral device via a camera or as a result of searching for the peripheral device (e.g., due startup of a related application or periodic scanning). The host device may also receive an image of the peripheral device (e.g., captured via the camera, and determine a visual distance to the peripheral device based on the image. The host device may also determine a signal strength of the peripheral device, and determine a signal distance to the peripheral device based on the signal strength. The host device may pair with the peripheral device if the visual distance and the signal distance are approximately equal.

    Abstract: Apparatus, systems, and/or methods may involve reporting a road hazard. Road hazard data may be collected for an object on a road, which may include automatically generated data from a device associated with the object causing a hazard. The road hazard data may be provided to a service, an application, a device, a client, and so on. For example, the road hazard data may be merged with a map and provided to a map services client, a navigation client, and so on. An alert may be generated based on the road hazard data to warn of the hazard caused by the object. The alert may include a visual and/or audio representation of the hazard data. The alert may be used to automatically and/or manually avoid the hazard.

    Abstract: An example includes a computing device including a controller configured to communicably couple the computing device to a peripheral computing device. The controller includes an encryption unit configured to encrypt input data received from the peripheral computing device before sending the input data to an application running on the computing device, and a decryption unit configured to decrypt output data received from the application before sending the output data to the peripheral computing device. The computing device also includes a memory device including a data structure that directs the flow of the data between the peripheral computing device and the application. The data structure includes an encryption enable field and an encryption key field for controlling the encryption and decryption units of the controller.

    Abstract: Various systems and methods for optimizing use of environmental and operational sensors are provided. A system for improving sensor efficiency includes object recognition circuitry (108) implementable in a vehicle (102) to detect an object ahead of the vehicle (102), the object recognition circuitry (108) to use an object detection operation to detect the object from sensor data of a sensor array, and the object recognition circuitry (108) configured to use at least one object tracking operation to track the object between successive object detection operations; and a processor (106) subsystem to: calculate a relative velocity of the object with respect to the vehicle (102); and configure the object recognition circuitry (108) to adjust intervals between successive object detection operations based on the relative velocity of the object.

    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and/or methods to protect an entity. A detector may detect an animal proximate to an entity based on sensor data from a plurality of sensors. The plurality of sensors may be positioned, for example, on the entity. In addition, a protector may administer a mechanical repellant from a protection device to repel the animal proximate to the entity. The mechanical repellant may include, for example, an ultrasound wave, a vibration wave, and so on. Moreover, the mechanical repellant may be specific to a type of animal to repel the animal proximate to the entity. The mechanical repellant may further be harmless to the animal (or the entity) and/or inapplicable to at least one other animal in the environment.

    Abstract: Technologies for managing assets of a data center include a unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communicatively coupled to a remote computing device. The UAV is configured to navigate throughout a data center and capture data center mapping information during the navigation usable to generate a three-dimensional (3D) model of the data center. The UAV is further configured to transmit the captured data center mapping information to a remote computing device. Accordingly, the UAV can receive instructions from a remote computing device that define a type of task to be performed by the UAV in the data center and perform such a task (e.g., a data center map update task, an asset inventory task, a maintenance task, a visual inspection task, etc.) based on the received task instructions. Other embodiments are described and claimed herein.
