Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting proximity of a wireless listening device to a user's ear comprise a housing adapted for positioning in and/or adjacent to an ear canal of a user, wireless components disposed within the housing, the wireless components operable to receive a wireless signal from a host device, and in-ear detection components operable to analyze the wireless signal and detect a proximity of the housing to the ear canal of the user. The in-ear detection components may include a differentiator operable to receive a gain of the wireless signal and output a rate of change of the gain, a comparator operable to output a proximity state if the rate of change is greater than a threshold value, wherein the proximity state includes an in-ear state and an open-air state, and false detection components operable to analyze the wireless signal to confirm the determined proximity state for an interval of time.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for transmitting and receiving image data. The present implementations more specifically relate to repurposing non-video interfaces to receive image data. In some aspects, an image processing device may be coupled to an image source via an audio interface. For example, the audio interface may be an inter-IC sound (I2S) serial bus interface having at least a serial data input and a word select (WS) input. In some implementations, the serial data input may be coupled to receive image data from the image source and the WS input may be coupled to receive a WS signal that tracks a horizontal synchronization (HSYNC) signal associated with the image data. Accordingly, the image processing device may capture (or store) frames of received image data, where the beginning of each frame is aligned with an edge of the WS signal (and thus, the HSYNC signal).

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for controlling motion-activated switches. The present implementations more specifically relate to relay controller that prevent motion-activated switches from turning off devices associated with an environment in which people are present. In some aspects, a motion-activated switch may include a relay controller coupled to a motion sensor, a camera, and a relay. The motion sensor outputs a motion trigger to the relay controller responsive to detecting motion in an environment. The motion trigger may cause the relay controller to acquire one or more images of the environment, via the camera, and selectively toggle the relay based on the acquired images. For example, the relay controller may close the relay responsive to identifying an image that includes an object of interest or may open the relay controller may open the relay responsive to identifying an image that does not include an object of interest.
