Abstract:
Processing techniques and device configurations for performing and controlling output effects at a plurality of wearable devices are generally described herein. In an example, a processing technique may include receiving, at a computing device, an indication of a triggering gesture that occurs at a first wearable device, determining an output effect corresponding to the indication of the triggering gesture, and in response to determining the output effect, transmitting commands to computing devices that are respectively associated with a plurality of wearable devices, the commands causing the plurality of wearable devices to generate the output effect at the plurality of wearable devices. In further examples, output effects such as haptic feedback, light output, or sound output, may be performed by the plurality of wearable devices, associated computing devices, or other controllable equipment.
Abstract:
Various embodiments are generally directed to an apparatus, method and other techniques for detecting, by one or more sensor components, at least one sensor input, and executing, by logic, at least one instruction to cause an event on a wearable wireless device, the event comprising at least one of a change in a physical parameter on the wearable wireless device and a wireless communication with a computing device via a transceiver.
Abstract:
Embodiments of a system and method for gesture controlled output are generally described. A method may include receiving sensor input information from a wearable device, the sensor input information, determining, using the sensor input information, a gravity vector or a magnetic field, determining a change in horizontal angle, rotational angle, or vertical angle based on the sensor input information, the gravity vector, or the magnetic field, and determining a gesture based on the change in the horizontal angle, the rotational angle, or the vertical angle. The method may include outputting an indication, based on the gesture.
Abstract:
Apparatus, computer-readable storage medium, and method associated with speech recognition are described. In embodiments, a mobile phone may include a processor; and a speech recognition module coupled with the processor. The voice recognition module may be configured to recognize one or more voice commands and may include first echo cancellation logic and second echo cancellation logic to be selectively employed during recognition of voice commands. Employment of the first and second echo cancellation logic respectively may cause the mobile phone to variably consume a first and second amount of energy, with the second amount of energy being less than the first amount energy.
Abstract:
A fingerprint generator generates at least one fingerprint based on a portion of an input content stream and communicates the at least one fingerprint to a content recognizer. A content stream selector receives a media content identifier from the content recognizer corresponding to the at least one fingerprint and performs filtering on a portion of the input content stream containing a clip, the clip corresponding to the media content identifier.
Abstract:
A system and method for data transmission and power supply capability over an audio jack for mobile devices are disclosed. A particular embodiment includes: a peripheral device including an energy storage component, a microphone using a microphone bias voltage, and a select switch configured to provide a first switch position wherein charging of the energy storage component using the microphone bias voltage via the microphone conductor is enabled, the select switch being configured provide a second switch position wherein charging of the energy storage component using the microphone bias voltage via the microphone conductor is disabled; and a mobile device and an application (app) executable in the mobile device to produce a switching tone on the audio signal conductor of the audio jack, the switching tone causing the select switch to transition to the first switch position or the second switch position.
Abstract:
A device includes an enclosure and logic. The enclosure includes a plurality of capacitive touch sensor arrays disposed at least on two of a top side, a bottom side, a left side, a right side, a front side, and a back side of the device. The enclosure also includes a first display on the front side of the device. The logic receives touch interaction information from the plurality of capacitive touch sensor arrays and initiates an action based at least in part on the touch interaction information.
Abstract:
In one example a controller comprises logic, at least partially including hardware logic, configured to detect a key phrase in a received audio signal, and in response to the key phrase, to transmit a signal to a personal assistant in a remote electronic device, determine whether an audio input was received, and in response to a determination that additional audio input was received prior to receiving a response from the personal assistant in the remote electronic device, to buffer the audio input in a memory and forward the audio input to the personal assistant in the remote electronic device. Other examples may be described.
