Abstract: According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a method performed by an electronic device for managing physical exertion of an user may include determining at least one physical strain exerted on at least one body part of the user in at least one Virtual Reality (VR) interaction of a VR session, identifying at least one real-world device where the at least one body part of the user performs at least one upcoming real-world activity subsequent to the at least one VR interaction, and altering at least one operational setting of the at least one identified real-world device, wherein the at least one operational setting corresponds to the at least one physical strain exerted on the at least one body part of the user.

Abstract: A method for context-based task management in an internet of things (IoT) network is provided. The method includes detecting an occurrence of at least one disruption while executing at least one ongoing task at an IoT device in the IoT network. The method includes identifying a contextual relationship between the at least one ongoing task and the at least one disruption. Further, the method includes performing one of continuing the at least one ongoing task at the IoT device, initiating at least one alternative task for the at least one ongoing task at the IoT device, and proceeding with at least one next task at the IoT device based on the contextual relationship between the at least one ongoing task and the at least one disruption.

Abstract: A method for providing secure pairing across devices in an Internet of Thing (IoT) environment, includes identifying presence information of one or more second IoT devices in a vicinity of a first IoT device and positional information of the one or more second IoT devices relative to the first IoT device, identifying transaction context information for one or more pairing transactions between the first IoT device and the one or more second IoT devices, generating a confidence zone based on at least one of the presence information, the positional information or the transaction context information, determining a pairing action between a target IoT device and the first IoT device based on the confidence zone and information for the target IoT device, and executing at least one action to establish or deny a secure paring between the target IoT device and the first IoT device based on the pairing action.

Abstract: A system and methods are disclosed for manipulating soft tissue. In some embodiments, a roller has a cylindrical core with a plurality of protrusions disposed thereon, each protrusion having a height, durometer and radius of curvature and separated axially and circumferentially from nearby protrusions. Spacing between tow protrusions may allow protrusions to contact soft tissue while nearby bony tissue, nerves or wounds are avoided. End caps on the cylindrical core have a major diameter that may be less than, approximately the same as, or greater than the diameter of the cylindrical core and the height of the protrusions. A circumferential band may be devoid of protrusions.
