    Abstract: In general, the subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for identifying that a first audio stream includes first, second, and third sources of audio. A computing system identifies that a second audio stream includes the first, second, and third sources of audio. The computing system determines that the first and second sources of audio are part of a first conversation. The computing system generates a third audio stream that combines the first source of audio from the first audio stream, the first source of audio from the second audio stream, the second source of audio from the first audio stream, and the second source of audio from the second audio stream, and diminishes the third source of audio from the first audio stream, and the third source of audio from the second audio stream.

    Abstract: Techniques, apparatuses, and systems are described for integrating haptic actuators into accessories for mobile computing device. Current accessory devices and their associated housings lack the necessary space to implement multiple haptic actuators for conveying complex haptic information. The accessory device attached to the mobile computing device provides additional space for integrating haptic actuators, which provide complex haptic information to a user of the mobile computing device. Using the haptic device accessory, the mobile computing device can convey haptic information to a user of the accessory device. In this way, a haptic device accessory can improve the otherwise limited haptic experience for a user of the accessory device.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for language identification of a media content item based on comments are provided. In some embodiments, the method includes: obtaining a plurality of comments associated with a media content item; selecting a subset of the plurality of comments based on one or more criteria; assigning, for each comment in the subset of the plurality of comments, a vector of language probabilities, wherein each component of the vector is assigned a language probability that indicates the likelihood that the comment includes content in a language from a plurality of languages; combining the vector of language probabilities for each comment in the subset of the plurality of comments to generate a combined language vector; identifying a language associated with the media content item based on the combined language vector; and performing an action based on the identified language.

    Abstract: A vibrotactile device including a first actuator channel having a vibrotactile actuator and a resistor with a predetermined resistance positioned at an input of the vibrotactile actuator, a processor configured to output a driving signal for driving the vibrotactile actuator, and a voltage sensor configured to measure a voltage drop across the resistor. A current drawn by the vibrotactile actuator varies according to a load applied to the vibrotactile actuator and passes through the resistor. The processor is configured to receive voltage drop measurement data from the voltage sensor, detect a load applied to the vibrotactile actuator based on the measured voltage drop, and control the driving signal based on the detected load.

    Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes an electric motor, driver circuitry to drive the electric motor, a temperature sensor to detect a temperature of the electric motor, and one or more processors. The one or more processors control the driver circuitry to drive the electric motor according to a predetermined voltage signal to cause the electric motor to stall and generate heat, receive information about the temperature of the electric motor detected by the temperature sensor while the electric motor is stalled, and maintain a temperature of the electric motor below a threshold temperature value while the electric motor is stalled based on the information about the temperature of the electric motor detected by the temperature sensor while the electric motor is stalled.
