摘要:
The present invention concerns devices and methods for control of data transfer in a personal area network. The data transfer being performed by body coupled communication (BCC) and short-range wireless communication between a first portable electronic communication device (10) and a second portable electronic communication device (20, 30). The devices being adapted to be in close proximity to a body of a user and the first portable electronic communication device (10) is configured to initiate and perform execution of predefined actions by means of the method to cooperate with the second portable electronic communication device (20, 30) in a system/personal area network.

A system receives a request to access a secure resource and a verification telephone number from a first device, establishes a secure session with a second device associated with the verification telephone number, requests an authentication mechanism from the second device to verify the secure resource request, verifies the received authentication mechanism if the requested authentication mechanism is received from the second device, and determines whether to grant or deny the first device access to the secure resource based on the verification of the received authentication mechanism.

Methods, portable electronic devices, systems and computer program products are provided for automatically creating a social networking service (SNS) session. The methods include generating at and transmitting from a first device a first audio and/or video fingerprint of an audio and/or video event. The first audio and/or video fingerprint has a first predetermined length (T). A second audio and/or video fingerprint is periodically transmitted to a server from the first device. The second audio and/or video fingerprint has a second predetermined length (t), smaller than the first predetermined length (T), and includes data associated with the audio and/or video event that is later in time than data included in the first audio and/or video fingerprint. The first device is joined to an SNS session, automatically created by the server, responsive to receipts at the server, of a third audio and/or video fingerprint having the first predetermined length (T) from a second device that includes a portion of the first audio and/or video fingerprint or the second audio and/or video fingerprint periodically transmitted from the first device.

Methods for obtaining a three-dimensional (3D) mesh from two dimensional images are provided. The methods include obtaining a series of 2D images using a camera array; calculating a depth map using the obtained series of 2D images; identifying portions of the calculated depth map that need additional detail; applying a textured based algorithm to the identified portions of the calculated depth map to obtain the additional detail in the depth map; and combining the calculated depth map with the obtained additional detail to provide a more accurate 3D mesh. Related systems and computer program products are also provided.
摘要:
A system and method for a plurality of electronic equipment located within a short range communication zone to share bandwidth with each other. In one aspect of the invention, an electronic equipment (a requesting electronic equipment) transmits a request for content over a cellular telephone network (e.g., 3G, GPRS, etc.). In addition, the electronic equipment communicates with other electronic equipment through a wireless local area network (WLAN) interface (e.g., Bluetooth, 802.11, etc.) to determine if the other electronic equipment are available to share bandwidth with the requesting electronic equipment. The other electronic transmit the requested content to the master portable communication device through the WLAN interface.
摘要:
According to the invention a first communication device investigates if there is an entry of a contacting identifier received in the device in a contacts register. In case there is no such entry it locates, in the contacts register, communication devices in a set of communication devices providing a lookup service, which set includes at least one communication device and where at least one communication device is a personal communication device, an sends a query regarding the contacting identifier to at least one second communication device of the set. The second communication device receives the query and investigates an own contacts register. In case the contacting identifier is provided in the own contacts register it further locates an identity associated with the contacting identifier and automatically sends data regarding the identity to the first communication device as a response to the query.
摘要:
A hand-off controller for use in a system including an application server, the application server being connected to a mobile device via a first network connection to conduct an application session involving data communications between the application server and the mobile device. The hand-off controller is operatively coupled to the application server and configured to recognize that a surrogate device has connected to the application server via a second network connection; recognize that the surrogate device is intended to participate in the application session in the place of the mobile device; enable data communications directed to the mobile device from the application server, in relation to the application session, to be sent to the surrogate device; and enable data communications directed to the application server from the surrogate device, in relation to the application session, to be sent to the application server, whereby the surrogate device is able to continue the application session with the application server in place of the mobile device.
