Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for a controllable irrigation and environment monitoring system, devices, and applications, are described. The irrigation system may use a valve on each spray head which may allow each spray head of the irrigation system to be independently controlled. The spray radius and the water flow of each of the spray heads may be individually adjusted. The irrigation system may include sensors which provide feedback and the system may individually adjust each of the spray heads of the irrigation system and may adjust the watering schedule, water flow, and spray radius based on the sensor feedback. The irrigation system may be automated and self-managed and may adjust watering schedules according to an algorithm. The algorithm may use data collected by the system and also may use user-defined parameters such as local watering restrictions.

Abstract: A processor-implemented method includes receiving, from a mobile device, transmission information corresponding to an audio data transmission associated with an audio data packet loss of one or more audio data packets. The processor determines, based at least in part on the transmission information, a geographic region associated with a wireless communication network transceiver. The processor further determines an average audio data packet loss rate associated with the geographic region and a correlation between the audio data packet loss and at least one key performance indicator (KPI). The KPI is indicative of the audio data transmission. Based at least in part on (i) the average audio data packet loss rate and (ii) the correlation between the audio data packet loss and the at least one KPI, the processor generates a handover instruction comprising at least one threshold value for transitioning control from a first cell channel to a second cell channel.

Abstract: An intelligent image sensory system includes its own embedded or modular image processing capability. The intelligent image sensory system may capture, process, and content classify digital frames. Each digital frame may be classified as permissible or objectionable, according to trainable content rules and policies. The intelligent image sensory system conducts a real time, frame-by-frame content analysis to avoid sharing of personal/sensitive data. An audio input system may also be controlled, based on the content of each frame.
