Abstract:
Systems and methods to receive content and generate a playlist of content based at least in part on content interests and/or preferences of occupants of a vehicle is disclosed. The playlist may further be generated based on user interests and/or preferences of multiple occupants of the vehicle. In addition, a drive context of the vehicle may be used in the selection of content for receiving and/or rendering.
Abstract:
A method may include calculating a first distance between first and second devices and determining a direction of a movement of the first device. The method may further include calculating a second distance between the first and second devices after the movement of the first device and determining the relative position of the first device with respect to the second device based on the direction of the movement, the first distance, and the second distance.
Abstract:
A method may include detecting motion of a mobile device and inferring from the motion a first activity of a user of the mobile device. The method may also include evaluating a signal quality of a radio signal received by a signal module and altering an operational mode of the signal module based on the signal quality and the first activity.
Abstract:
A method, system and computer control logic to provide personalization of a viewer's usage of an Internet TV platform. The method includes tracking a viewer's interactive usage pattern of the TV platform; generating viewer usage data based on the tracking; analyzing the viewer usage data on a substantially real-time basis; and personalizing the viewer's usage of the TV platform on a based on an analysis the viewer usage data.
Abstract:
Embodiments herein provide a rule-based smart alarm system for a medical monitoring system that avoids alarm fatigue, delivery of coordinated medical data from multiple sources, and methods to facilitate data entry by a caregiver in the field, ϊn various embodiments, data may be correlated from multiple sensor streams to validate measurements made by sensors, Additionally, in various embodiments, systems and techniques may use prior-determined probabilities based on validated clinical data, patient history, and treatments administered to determine subsequent actions after an alarm is triggered. In various embodiments, these actions may include, but are not limited to, when to alarm, when to acquire more data, and one or more protocols to recommend to clinicians. Additionally, in various embodiments, systems and techniques may archive user responses, triggered alarms, and related data so that the decision-making process surrounding alarm triggering may be refined during post-analysis. Additionally, various embodiments, techniques and systems may enable coordinated representation of a set of medical data by visually presenting data related to the events using two or more correlated representations.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides techniques for automatically changing device display orientation. A computing device includes a display and an inertial measurement unit (IMU) to detect changes in computing device orientation. The computing device also includes a driver to change an orientation of the display when a change in orientation of the computing device is detected by the IMU. A camera can be used to track user eye position in response to detection of a change in orientation of the computing device by the IMU.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for receiving a communication on one or more user devices within a vehicle and redirecting the communications based at least in part on one or more user profiles associated with occupants of the vehicle is disclosed. The redirection of the communication may further be based at least in part on one or more sensor signals or a drive characteristic associated with the vehicle.
Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed that involve detecting and tracking groups of people associated with a user device (e.g., people watching television), and customizing the experience to the group. Various features may be employed. Such features may include classification of individuals, identification of commonly occurring groupings of people, and identification of the presence of group outsiders. Based on the presence of such individuals, groups, and/or outsiders, delivery of information to the user device may be controlled.

Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure render safer a communication between a caller within a vehicle and a callee located remotely. In one aspect, context information associated with such communication can be shared among the caller and the callee. Accordingly, in another aspect, a context-rich, immersive communication between the in-vehicle communicator (or local communicator) and the remote communicator can be effected. In yet another aspect, proactive creation of safer vehicular operation can be provided by engaging the vehicle in communication with a remote device in response to unsafe vehicular contexts.
