Abstract: Peripherals and data processing systems are disclosed which can be configured to interact based upon sensor data. In at least certain embodiments, a method for sensing motion and orientation information for a device includes receiving a motion event from at least one sensor located in a device. The method further includes determining an orientation for a display of the device. The method further includes determining whether the device is currently moving. The method further includes determining whether the device moves within an angle with respect to a ground reference for a first time period. The method further includes switching the orientation of the display of the device if the device moves in excess of the angle.

Abstract: Audible alerts issued by a portable electronic device (100) can be silenced in response to user smacks on the body of the device. These audible alerts are initiated by applications (137) running on the device, such as email (140), phone (138), alarm (133), and/or timer (149-4) applications. In some embodiments, the device (100) includes one or more accelerometers (168) that detect and signal the user smacks. In some embodiments, the alert response mode of the device (100) such as whether it rings or vibrates to signal an alert can be changed in response to predefined patterns of user smacks.

Abstract translation: 便携式电子设备（100）发出的声音警报可以响应于用户在设备主体上的微笑而被静音。 这些听觉警报由在设备上运行的应用（137）发起，例如电子邮件（140），电话（138），闹钟（133）和/或定时器（149-4）应用。 在一些实施例中，设备（100）包括一个或多个加速度计（168），其检测和发信号通知用户。 在一些实施例中，设备（100）的警报响应模式（例如其响铃或振动以发出警报）可以响应于预定义的用户微笑模式而改变。

Abstract: A virtual assistant uses context information to supplement natural language or gestural input from a user. Context helps to clarify the user's intent and to reduce the number of candidate interpretations of the user's input, and reduces the need for the user to provide excessive clarification input. Context can include any available information that is usable by the assistant to supplement explicit user input to constrain an information-processing problem and/or to personalize results. Context can be used to constrain solutions during various phases of processing, including, for example, speech recognition, natural language processing, task flow processing, and dialog generation.
