Abstract: A communication system actively monitors a conversation between users in an environment. Once a threshold condition occurs (e.g., client device within a threshold distance of a room where the conversation is occurring, the user enters a chatroom via the client device), the client device receives a summary from the communication system. The communication system may customize the summary in accordance with user preferences. User preferences may include level of detail in summary or time range associated with summary. The client device then presents the summary to the user. The summary may be audio or text. In some embodiments, the summary may be historical audio that is overlaid over current audio at faster speed and higher volume, and stops once the historical audio reaches real time.

Abstract: A method to assess user condition for wearable devices using electromagnetic sensors is provided. The method includes receiving a signal from an electromagnetic sensor, the signal being indicative of a health condition of a user of a wearable device, selecting a salient attribute from the signal, and determining, based on the salient attribute, the health condition of the user of the wearable device. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause a system to perform the above method, and the system, are also provided.

Abstract: A method for audio beam steering, tracking, and audio effects for an immersive reality application is provided. The method includes receiving, from an immersive reality application, a first audio waveform from a first acoustic source to provide to a user of a headset, identifying a perceived direction for the first acoustic source relative to the headset based on a location of the first acoustic source, and providing, to a first speaker in a client device, an audio signal including the first audio waveform, wherein the audio signal includes a time delay and an amplitude of the first audio waveform based on the perceived direction. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause a system to perform the above method, and the system, are also provided.

Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include applying, via a sound reproduction system, sound cancellation that reduces an amplitude of various sound signals. The method further includes identifying, among the sound signals, an external sound whose amplitude is to be reduced by the sound cancellation. The method then includes analyzing the identified external sound to determine whether the identified external sound is to be made audible to a user and, upon determining that the external sound is to be made audible to the user, the method includes modifying the sound cancellation so that the identified external sound is made audible to the user. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
