Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for improvements in electronic communications. A mobile electronic device associated with a user measures crowd density proximate to the user. When the crowd density exceeds a threshold, a haptic signal, such as a vibration or pneumatic output, is discretely provided to the user. After issuing the haptic signal, the device listens for false data. False data is data entered by the user that is not part of the expected data sequence. The false data is used to obfuscate the true data. The randomness of the false data can be used to generate a keypair used for communication. The keypair is used for asymmetric encryption that provides an extra level of security for electronic communications from the mobile electronic device.

Abstract: Physical object addition and removal based on affordance and view. A method tracks eye gaze of a group of users who view an environment, the group of users each having a respective field of view to the environment. The method assesses, based on the tracking, whether an object present in the respective fields of view of the group of users is clutter. The method also initiates a physical change to the environment based on the assessing. In some examples, assessing whether the object is clutter includes determining an extent to which the group of users avoid the object by looking around or away from the object, measuring visual dwell time on and around the object by the group of users, and/or identifying affordances of the object based on input from the group of users and/or on correlating the object to another object having known affordances associated therewith.

Abstract: A determination can be made as to whether a user of an augmented reality device is within a threshold distance from a configurable physical apparatus including at least one display configured to emit light. Responsive to determining that the user is within the threshold distance from the configurable physical apparatus, a communication link can be established between the augmented reality device and a controller of the configurable physical apparatus. The controller can be initiated to change the configurable physical apparatus from a first configuration to a second configuration. In the first configuration the at least one display can visually depict textures causing the physical apparatus to look like a first type of ceiling or a first type of floor. In the second configuration the at least one display can visually depict textures causing the physical apparatus to look like a second type of ceiling or a second type of floor.

Abstract: According to an aspect, a package transport container for a UAV includes a manifest device having a computer processor, a receptacle including a base that secures contents of the receptacle, a locking mechanism that couples the manifest device to the receptacle during transport, and a connector coupling the manifest device to the UAV. The processor transmits material properties of the contents of the receptacle to the UAV, receives routing information for a package to be transported, monitors coordinates of the package transport container during transport, and upon determining the coordinates match coordinates of a delivery location specified in the routing information: sends a release request signal to the UAV to release the receptacle; receives a release command from the UAV; and disengages the locking mechanism to release the manifest device from the base. The routing information is determined at least in part based on the material properties of the contents.

Abstract: Adapting a virtual space to the cognitive state of a user as measured through an immersive environment. The probability or confidence that a particular cognitive state is classified correctly is output by a probability density classifier. The predictors are from active features and inactive features acquired through the immersive environment to reverse engineer the cognitive state of the user in the real world. The overall goal of the immersive environment is initialized by the user with a default of nurturing the cognitive state of the user.
