Abstract: Embodiments relate to methods, devices, and computer-implemented methods for transmitting a modulated signal transmitted from at least one signal light source and using the modulated signal for commissioning of network nodes. The method can include determining, by a network node, that the network node is not commissioned. The method can further include generating, by the network node, a random number, and generating a modulated light signal based on the random number. In addition, the method can include transmitting, to an image capture device, the modulated light signal, receiving, from a network control unit, via a radio channel, an encrypted commissioning message, and decrypting, by the network node, the encrypted commissioning message using the random number. Further, the method can include establishing, with the network control unit, communication based on data in the encrypted commissioning message.

Abstract: Multiple devices may be simultaneously programmed using JTAG circuitry or a JTAG operation. The output of a master device's programming may be used to verify the programming of one or more slave devices. The comparison of the master device's programming output to a slave device's programming output may be handled by a logic circuit. The logic circuit may signal the result of the comparison by, for example, a LED.

Abstract: The disclosed subject matter may provide a system and methods for commissioning a device or appliance into a network. A processor may detect the insertion of a removable device into a data receptacle of a first device. The first device may be an appliance or a network controller. Information may be retrieved from or delivered to the removable device. The information may be information specific to the appliance, such as model number, or may be information related to the network controller. For example, information delivered from the network controller to the removable device may include a network address assignment and network protocol to be used by an appliance when the appliance communicates with the network. The removable device may be removed from the first device and inserted into a data receptacle of a second device.

Abstract: A system can receive a gesture from a user and configure a microphone system based on the received gesture to be more sensitive in the direction of a user from a device. The gesture can detected by a sensor and can be a touch input, input from a camera and a depth sensor and the like. The microphone system can include a microphone that can be electronically or mechanically steerable, or both. Acoustic signals received from the direction of the user and from other directions can be used in conjunction with an automatic speech recognition system to detect and process a command from the user.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a transmission scheme for nodes in a network. More specifically, the disclosure relates to an acknowledgment scheme that minimizes energy requirements for an acknowledgment of a transmission between nodes. The disclosure describes that an energy constrained node may transmit to other nodes in a network and may only require that an acknowledgment of that transmission is received from at least one of the proximal recipients, which may or may not be the ultimate target. In order to minimize the complexity of the receiver in a node and its energy requirements, the acknowledgment scheme may employ simple on-off keying (irrespective of the modulation technique of the sending transmission. The acknowledgment comprises a series of OOK pulses sent at a specified time after receipt of the transmission. In addition, simultaneously received acknowledgments can be processed and verified without confusion.
