Abstract: A finger-mounted device may include finger-mounted units. The finger-mounted units may each have a body that serves as a support structure for components such as force sensors, accelerometers, and other sensors and for haptic output devices. The body may have sidewall portions coupled by a portion that rests adjacent to a user's fingernail. The body may be formed from deformable material such as metal or may be formed from adjustable structures such as sliding body portions that are coupled to each other using magnetic attraction, springs, or other structures. The body of each finger-mounted unit may have a U-shaped cross-sectional profile that leaves the finger pad of each finger exposed when the body is coupled to a fingertip of a user's finger. Control circuitry may gather finger press input, lateral finger movement input, and finger tap input using the sensors and may provide haptic output using the haptic output device.

Abstract: An electronic device comprising a cell region comprising stacks of alternating dielectric materials and conductive materials. A pillar region is adjacent to the cell region and comprises storage node segments adjacent to adjoining oxide materials and adjacent to a tunnel region. The storage node segments are separated by a vertical portion of the tunnel region. A high-k dielectric material is adjacent to the conductive materials of the cell region and to the adjoining oxide materials of the pillar region. Additional electronic devices are disclosed, as are methods of forming an electronic device and related systems.

Abstract: A protective case for use with a portable electronic device includes a protective shell and a cap. The protective shell is configured to at least partially encase the portable electronic device and includes an aperture configured to align with a receptacle of the portable electronic device when the portable electronic device is installed in the protective case. The aperture is configured to allow insertion of the stylus into the receptacle of the portable electronic device from outside the protective shell a cap removably insertable into the aperture of the protective shell to close the aperture. The cap is attachable to the stylus to facilitate removal of the stylus from the receptacle of the installed portable electronic device. The cap is configured to allow the stylus to extend into the receptacle to interact with the sensor of the portable electronic device while remaining attached to the stylus.

Abstract: An image to be shared with other users based on input from a first user is received. A second user is identified from a tag of the image, and information is provided, based at least in part on the tag, to one or both of the first user and the second user. Additionally, after editing of an image a determination can be made as to whether a region of the image having an associated tag has been affected by the editing. The tag associated with the region is altered if the region has been affected by the editing, otherwise the tag associated with the region is left unaltered. Furthermore, the tag can include a first portion storing data identifying a region of the image to which the tag corresponds, and a second portion storing data identifying a person shown in the region.

Abstract: An image having a region tagged by a first user is obtained. The tag can include a first label of a person in the region, and the label can be used by the first user to identify the person in the region. Then, a second label of the person is determined. In implementations, the second label is used by a second user to identify the person in the region. The image is then displayed with the second label when displaying the image for the second user.

Abstract: A disambiguation process for a voice interface for web pages or other documents. The process identifies interactive elements such as links, obtains one or more phrases of each interactive element, such as link text, title text and alternative text for images, and adds the phrases to a grammar which is used for speech recognition. A group of interactive elements are identified as potential best matches to a voice command when there is no single, clear best match. The disambiguation process modifies a display of the document to provide unique labels for each interactive element in the group, and the user is prompted to provide a subsequent spoke command to identify one of the unique labels. The selected unique label is identified and a click event is generated for the corresponding interactive element.

Abstract: A voice interface for web pages or other documents identifies interactive elements such as links, obtains one or more phrases of each interactive element, such as link text, title text and alternative text for images, and adds the phrases to a grammar which is used for speech recognition. A click event is generated for an interactive element having a phrase which is a best match for the voice command of a user. In one aspect, the phrases of currently-displayed elements of the document are used for speech recognition. In another aspect, phrases which are not displayed, such as title text and alternative text for images, are used in the grammar. In another aspect, updates to the document are detected and the grammar is updated accordingly so that the grammar is synchronized with the current state of the document.

Abstract: A global tag for an image is received identifies one or more objects in the image, and a region-specific tag for the image identifies one or more objects in a region of the image. The global tag and the region-specific tag are stored with the image. Displayed, along with the image, is an identifier for each of the one or more objects identified in the global tag, and an identifier for each of the one or more objects identified in the region-specific tag. Different users are able to maintain different names for the same person, allowing the same tag of the image to be used as the basis for displaying the image with different names for the different users. Additionally, the tags can be used as a basis for generating a credits list of people that are included in a compilation of images.

Abstract: A system for integrating local speech recognition with cloud-based speech recognition in order to provide an efficient natural user interface is described. In some embodiments, a computing device determines a direction associated with a particular person within an environment and generates an audio recording associated with the direction. The computing device then performs local speech recognition on the audio recording in order to detect a first utterance spoken by the particular person and to detect one or more keywords within the first utterance. The first utterance may be detected by applying voice activity detection techniques to the audio recording. The first utterance and the one or more keywords are subsequently transferred to a server which may identify speech sounds within the first utterance associated with the one or more keywords and adapt one or more speech recognition techniques based on the identified speech sounds.
