Detection of gesture data segmentation in mobile devices. An embodiment of a mobile device includes an edge, the edge including at least a first side, and a first touch sensor of one or more touch sensors, the first touch sensor being a side touch sensor to detect contact with the first side of the mobile device. The mobile device further includes one or more motion detection elements to generate motion data representing motion of the mobile device through space over a period of time, a buffer for the storage of the motion data, and a gesture recognition module to interpret the motion data stored in the buffer, wherein the mobile device begins the storage of the motion data in the buffer upon detection of a start of gesture data event, the start of gesture data event including contact with the first touch sensor.
Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention provides a method of using probabilistic techniques in trending and profiling of user behavior in order to offer recommendations, comprising detecting patterns in user behavior over time thereby enabling a personal device associated with said user to predict what the user is likely to do on a given day or what the user intends to accomplish in an action that has begun.
Abstract:
Through status awareness, a handheld communications device may determine the location, activity, and/or physical or emotional state of the user. This information may in turn be used for various purposes, such as 1) determining how to alert the user of an incoming communication, 2) determining what format to use for communicating with the user, and 3) determining how to present the user's status to another person's communication device.
Abstract:
In einer Ausführungsform weist eine Vorrichtung einen Speicher und einen Prozessor auf. Der Speicher dient dazu, Sensordaten zu speichern, wobei die Sensordaten von mehreren Sensoren innerhalb einer Lernumgebung aufgenommen sind. Der Prozessor dient zum: Zugreifen auf die Sensordaten, die von den mehreren Sensoren aufgenommen sind; Identifizieren eines Schülers innerhalb der Lernumgebung, basierend auf den Sensordaten; Erfassen mehrerer Ereignisse, die mit dem Schüler verknüpft sind, basierend auf den Sensordaten, wobei jedes Ereignis einen Aufmerksamkeitsgrad des Schülers innerhalb der Lernumgebung angibt; Erzeugen eines Berichts, basierend auf den mehreren Ereignissen, die mit dem Schüler verknüpft sind; und Senden des Berichts an einen Dritten, der mit dem Schüler verknüpft ist.
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the invention may be used to verify that a person being authorized by biometric techniques to use a device is a living person and not some form of recording intended to spoof the system. Some embodiments may try to cause a change in a measured biometric feature, and compare images taken before and after the change to verify the change occurred. In some embodiments, multiple stages of verification may be used, either to increase the difficulty of spoofing the security system, or to provide different levels of security for different levels of access to the device's functionality.
