Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to pairing of electronic devices. An example computer-implemented method includes detecting, by an interactive object, user input with the interactive object. The method further includes generating, by the interactive object in response to detecting the user input, a pairing communication for a user device. The pairing communication can include an interactive object identifier and data indicative of a pairing output signal that is emittable by the interactive object. The method further includes providing, by the interactive object, the pairing communication to the user device. The method further includes generating, by the interactive object, the pairing output signal via one or more output devices. The pairing output signal includes at least one of a visual signal or an audio signal of the interactive object. The user device and the interactive object can be paired based at least in part on the pairing output signal.

Abstract: Systems and devices for levitating interactive objects are provided. A toy formed proximate the opening, electrical circuitry configured to cause an electrical current to flow in the solenoid coil, wireless communication circuitry; and a controller coupled to the wireless communication circuitry and the electrical circuitry and configured to control the timing and amount of electrical current flowing through the solenoid coil to cause levitation or levitation-like movement of the toy wand within said opening by virtue of electromagnetic interaction with the magnetically-reactive element of the shaft portion.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to selective gesture recognition for handheld device gestures. An example method includes receiving, by a handheld interactive object, movement information descriptive of a gesture performed with the handheld interactive object. The method includes selecting a local and/or remote machine-learned model for processing the movement information. The movement information can be processed to identify a gesture action corresponding to the movement information. The local and/or remote machine-learned model can be selected based on user input data and/or a complexity of the movement information. In response to selecting the local machine-learned model, the method includes processing the movement information according to the local machine-learned model and communicating a message to a remote device based on the result. In response to selecting the remote ma-chine-learned model, the method includes communicating the movement information to the remote device for processing in accordance with the remote machine-learned model.
