Abstract: Examples are disclosed herein that relate to a six degree-of-freedom (DOF) input device. An example provides an input device comprising a body, a sensor system configured to sense motion of the input device with six DOF, a communication interface and a controller. The controller is configured to transmit output based on sensor data from the sensor system for use in controlling an application in a first mode in which each of the six degrees-of-freedom is used as input, the application being controlled in the first mode in response to detecting a first condition, and transmit output based on sensor data from the sensor system for use in controlling the application in a second mode in which one or more of the six degrees-of-freedom is not used as input, the application being controlled in the second mode in response to detecting a second condition.

Abstract: A computer system is provided that includes one or more processors configured to receive a stream of data from a plurality of network connected devices configured to measure physical parameters, and store a user profile including user settings for a plurality of notification subscriptions associated with physical parameters measured by the plurality of network connected devices. Each notification subscription includes programming logic for a trigger condition for a candidate notification based on measured physical parameters and an associated component sound for the candidate notification. The one or more processors are further configured to determine that trigger conditions for a plurality of candidate notifications are met based on the received stream of data, and generate a composite sound output including a plurality of component sounds associated with the plurality of notifications rendered.
