Abstract: A method and apparatus forms clusters of co-located devices by correlating measurable quantities that are observed by the devices. Devices, both fixed and mobile, may be clustered according to spatially defined locations by receiving a plurality of observations of measurable metrics from the devices; scoring the plurality of observations to define a cluster state at each of the spatially defined locations, wherein the cluster state comprises a plurality of measurable quantities; assigning the devices to a cluster of a plurality of clusters; after assigning the devices to the cluster, receiving additional observations of measurable metrics from the devices; and autonomously updating the cluster states in based on the additional observations.

Abstract: Systems and methods determine occupancy of a mobile device in a room based on one or more wireless signals measured by the mobile device. The mobile device receives and processes one or more wireless signals detectable in the room to generate a feature vector that is inputted to a classifier. The wireless signals may originate either in the room or out of the room. The feature vector contains wireless-signal characteristics measured by the mobile device (e.g., time-averaged power, Fourier coefficients) that are essentially unique to a room. The classifier, which may be an artificial neural network, predicts the occupancy of the mobile device in the room from the feature vector. Alternatively, the location of the mobile device in the room may be verified, wherein the feature vector may form a training example to train the classifier.

Abstract: Systems and methods use a mobile device to position an annotation of displayed content on a shared display coupled with a host device. Sensor data, such as gyroscope and accelerometer data, from the mobile device may be transmitted to the host device and used to generate the annotation. The sensor data may be preprocessed to smooth and fit the data to a parametric curve or shape prior to or after display on the shared display. The user of the mobile device may interact with the mobile device to further start and stop the annotation, as well as denote to animate the annotation.
