Abstract:
A wearable device is described herein. The wearable device includes a display. The display can be a digital display with analog components. The wearable device also includes an input device. The input device is to control the digital display and the analog components correspond to the digital display. In some cases, the input device is a bezel.
Abstract:
A method and device for streaming the output of one or more audio sources to one or more smart headsets includes establishing a secure connection with a smart headset, associating an audio channel of the one or more audio sources with the smart headset, and streaming the associated audio channel to the smart headset. The audio streaming device may selectively stream one or more audio channels from one or more audio sources to one or more of the smart headsets as a function of a streaming policy.
Abstract:
A wearable device for binaural audio is described. The wearable device includes a feedback mechanism, a microphone, an always on binaural recorder (AOBR), and a processor. The AOBR is to capture ambient noise via the microphone and interpret the ambient noise. An alert is issued by the processor to the feedback mechanism based on a notification detected via the microphone in the ambient noise.
Abstract:
This application discusses among other things apparatus and methods for optimizing speech recognition at a far-end device. In an example, a method can include establishing a link with a far-end communication device using a near-end communication device, identifying a context of the far end communication device, and selecting one audio processing mode of a plurality of audio processing modes at the near-end communication device, the one audio processing mode associated with the identified context of the far-end device, and configured to reduce reception error by the far-end communication device of audio transmitted from the near-end communication device.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus relating to communication link and network connectivity management in low power mode are described. In one embodiment, logic manages one or more external communication network links (also referred as “links”) in response to a determination that a processor has entered a low power consumption state and based on policy information. The logic also blocks/intercepts one or more signals, corresponding to management of the one or more links, that are directed to the processor to allow the processor to stay in the low power consumption. Other embodiments are also claimed and disclosed.
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:
An example system that allows a camera enabled application, such as an augmented reality application, to run in a protected area may include a first device including a camera, the camera including a secure mode of operation and a display, an image processing module configured to convert image data from the camera to encoded data when the camera is in the secure mode and protect image data stored in the system, an encryption module configured to encrypt encoded data from the image processing module, and a protected audiovisual path mechanism configured to securely send augmented encoded data to the display.
Abstract:
Technologies are described herein that allow a user to wake up a computing device operating in a low-power state and for the user to be verified by speaking a single wake phrase. Wake phrase recognition is performed by a low-power engine. In some embodiments, the low-power engine may also perform speaker verification. In other embodiments, the mobile device wakes up after a wake phrase is recognized and a component other than the low-power engine performs speaker verification on a portion of the audio input comprising the wake phrase. More than one wake phrases may be associated with a particular user, and separate users may be associated with different wake phrases. Different wake phrases may cause the device transition from a low-power state to various active states.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides techniques for capturing an image or video. In particular, the present disclosure provides techniques for capturing the image or video using a camera integrated with a computing device, such as a cellular phone. A computing device can include an image sensor to capture image data and a processor to process the image data. The image sensor is to capture the image data in an orientation format irrespective of an orientation of the computing device.
