Abstract: Users can switch between applications using contextual interface elements. These elements can include icons for applications determined to likely be accessed by the user for a current context. Information is gathered to determine the current context, then information such as patterns of historical usage are utilized to determine and rank the applications by likelihood of use. Different contexts can include different icons, and a given context can include different icons for different points in time or locations. A user can access a contextual interface element by performing a swipe motion, for example. The user can continue the motion to an area associated with an icon of interest, and perform an action such as a tap or release to cause the associated application to be launched. Such an approach enables a user to quickly and easily launch another application independent of the application currently active on the device.

Abstract: A system and method for identifying a user of a device includes comparing audio received by a device with acoustic fingerprint information to identify a user of the device. Image data, video data and other data may also be used in the identification of the user. Once the user is identified, operation of the device may be customized based on the user. Further, once the user is identified, data can be associated with the user, for example, usage data, location data, gender data, age data, dominant hand data of the user, and other data. This data can then be used to further customize the operation of the device to the specific user.

Abstract: User input is accepted by a force sensing resistor (“FSR”) assembly, a force sensing capacitor (“FSC”) assembly, or both. The FSR or FSC assemblies may be located within an input device, such as behind a device exterior, display, and so forth. A force applied to the device exterior proximate to the assembly may result in a signal indicative of the force to the assembly. The signal may be processed to determine a particular touch zone was activated. A particular action associated with the touch zone may be performed. The particular action may be based at least in part on which touch zone which was activated, a magnitude of the force, or both. For example, the particular action may include a haptic output to provide feedback to a user.

Abstract: Approaches to enable a computing device, such as a phone or tablet computer, to compute a probability that the user currently using the device matches a profile of an authorized user and to set or change a security level of the computing device based on the computed probability. The security level can be one of many security levels each having a different scope of authorized access to data or functions of the computing device. The computing device may periodically re-compute the probability and change the security level whenever the probability crosses certain predefined thresholds.

Abstract: A system and method determines whether a finger touch on a touch screen device is outside the defined boundary of a touch target. In such situations a device may adjust the location coordinates of the finger touch to adaptively correspond to an appropriate touch target based on such factors as context, region, distance from touch target, user history, device movement, parallax, etc. The method and system may also be applied to overlapping touch targets.

Abstract: Content is presented by media devices to a user. Described herein are techniques and systems for determining occurrence of one or more events at, or proximate to, the media device. Once an event is determined, one or more actions to modify presentation of the content may be initiated. The actions may include starting presentation of the content, stopping presentation of the content, applying noise mitigation techniques to the content, and so forth. The noise mitigation techniques may include modification of an intended signal from the content to produce a noise mitigation zone 118 proximate to, or encompassing, at least a portion of the user's head.

Abstract: Without human intervention, an autonomous mobile device (AMD) uses motors to move through a physical space along a path, controlled by computing devices processing sensor data from sensors. Electrical components such as the motors and computing devices generate heat during operation. The heat generated by the motors depends on time of operation and how hard they are being driven. The more data the computing devices process, the greater the heat generated. An overheated component may protectively shut down or fail. Internal temperature is used to constrain AMD movement. The AMD path may be planned to avoid overheating along the way and avoid arriving too hot to complete an expected or scheduled task at the destination. Speed along the path may be less than maximum speed, and the amount of data sent to the computing devices is also reduced, reducing heat generation and allowing the electrical components time to cool off.
