    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques and configurations for controlled power level adjustment of a wireless charging apparatus. In one instance, the apparatus may comprise a charging module to radiate an electromagnetic field to wirelessly charge an electronic device in proximity to the wireless charging apparatus; and a control module communicatively coupled with the charging module to adjust a power level of the electromagnetic field, radiated by the charging module, in response to a determination of an environmental condition in relation to the wireless charging apparatus. The control module may be configured to receive information indicative of the environmental condition from multiple sources distributed between the apparatus and the electronic device, and make the determination based at least in part on the received information. The environmental condition may comprise a presence of human tissue in proximity to the wireless charging apparatus. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: A self-adaptive security framework for a device is disclosed. A first security level for a device is set wherein the first security level comprises procedures that authenticate a user and allow the user to access the device. Input from sensors associated with the device may be received at a contextual sensing engine, wherein the input at least includes location data, and wherein at least a portion of the input is related to a physical setting where the device is located. A threat level for the device is determined in the physical setting via the contextual sensing engine based on analyzing the input. The first security level is altered to a second security level to provide an altered threat response for the device based on the threat level wherein the second security level has different procedures to authenticate the user compared to the first security level.

    Abstract: A vehicular inductive power transfer system includes a power transmission unit and a power receiving unit. The distance between the units and the overall alignment of the units with respect to each other determines the overall efficiency of the energy transfer between the power transmission unit and the power receiving unit. Magnetic fields produced by the inductive power transfer system may exceed allowable standards or regulations for human exposure to electromagnetic fields. An inductive power transfer control circuit autonomously causes an actuator to position at least one of the power transmission unit or the power receiving unit in a three-dimensional space based on one or more measured power transfer parameters. Such positioning may occur while the vehicle is moving or stationary. The control circuit may further autonomously adjust one or more power transfer parameters to maintain magnetic field exposure levels at or below industry standards or governmental regulations.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for sensing angular displacement between body segments of users include disposing an electromagnetic transmitting sensor about a first body segment and an electromagnetic receiving sensor about a second body segment. Data related to the magnetic field coupling between the transmitting and receiving sensors can be captured for determining the angular displacement between the first and second body segments.

    Abstract: Transmission power control methods and devices are described. In a transmission power control method, a specific absorption rate (SAR) is calculated based on a transmission power of the communication device and a proximity distance of the communication device with an external object. A time average specific absorption rate can be calculated based on the SAR. A power absorption budget value can be calculated based on the time average specific absorption rate and a time average specific absorption rate threshold value. Further, the transmission power of the communication device can be adjusted based on the power absorption budget value.

    Abstract: Apparatus, method, and system for remotely affecting the functionality and lifetime of an integrated circuit are described herein. One embodiment of a method includes: tracking a plurality of operational metrics relating to a monitored device, sending one or more of the plurality of operational metrics to a remote monitor and responsively receiving a command generated by the remote monitor, generating a threat level based on the plurality of operational metrics and the command, and performing a derating action based on the threat level. The command from the remote monitor may be generated by the remote monitor based, at least in part, on the one or more of the plurality of operational metrics. Alternatively, the command may be generated based on information obtained independently by the remote monitor and not based on the one or more of the plurality of operational metrics.
