Abstract: A method and apparatus for adjusting a display includes receiving a video stream. The video stream is analyzed for one or more environmental conditions. Based upon the analysis, a portion of the display is adjusted.

Abstract: A method for removing reflections from images is disclosed. The method includes identifying one or more segments of an image, the one or more segments including a reflection; identifying one or more features of the one or more segments; removing the one or more features from the segments to generate one or more sanitized segments; and combining the one or more sanitized segments with the image to generate a sanitized image.

Abstract: In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) is positioned within a driver operation zone of a vehicle, one or more UE-based user interfaces (UIs) are restricted and forwarded to a vehicle-based UI controller to permit access to the one or more UE-based features via a vehicle-based UI. In another aspect, the UE in the driver operation zone is engaged in hands-free speakerphone mode via a vehicle audio system of the vehicle, and an attempt to transition the UE to handset-based audio mode is blocked. In another aspect, when a handset-based audio capture and/or playback attempt of the UE is detected, the UE interacts with a vehicle audio system to temporarily reduce volume being output by one or more proximal speakers. In another aspect, the UE streams media to a media presentation device in its own zone or another zone of the vehicle for presentation thereon.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods, techniques, devices, and apparatuses for graphics and display processing for light field projection displays. In some examples, this disclosure describes a projection display system capable of rendering and displaying multiple annotations at the same time. An annotation is any information (e.g., texts, signs, directions, logos, phone numbers, etc.) that may be displayed. In one example, this disclosure proposes techniques for rendering and displaying multiple annotations at the same time at multiple different focal lengths.

Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing the bandwidth required to transmit video streams related to faces re described herein. In some aspects, contour information from face recognition technology is captured at a transmitting device and sent to a receiving device. The contour information may be used to reconstruct the face at the receiving device without the need to send an entire video frame of the face.

Abstract: A software application executing on at least one processor may output a video at a frame rate for display at a display device. The at least one processor may synchronize a refresh rate of the display device displaying the video to the frame rate of the video. In response to detecting a potential delay in displaying, at the display device, a frame of the video to be output by the software application, the at least one processor may time-shift at least one of: compositing of the frame and refreshing of the display device to mitigate the potential delay in displaying, at the display device, the frame of the video to be output by the software application.

Abstract: Various embodiments of methods and systems for just-in-time learning-based predictive thermal management (“JLPTM”) techniques implemented in a portable computing device (“PCD”) are disclosed. Embodiments of JLPTM systems and methods recognize that multiple thermal aggressors affect temperature readings of individual temperature sensors and that thermal events measured by those sensors may be predicted based on historical thermal behavior of the PCD. By monitoring various factors that contribute to thermal energy generation and/or dissipation in the PCD, JLPTM systems and methods may predict thermal events from historical thermal behavior data, identify optimum performance level settings combinations that will reduce thermal energy generation, and set a time in the future to apply an optimum performance level settings combination just-in-time to prevent the thermal event from occurring.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for detecting a live human face in an image are disclosed. The methods, systems, and apparatus are capable of capturing an image of a verification pattern that has been reflected from a defined region of interest of a user's eye. The captured image can be compared to the emitted verification pattern to determine whether the captured reflection matches the emitted pattern and is within the region of interest to verify a live user of an electronic device.

Abstract: Various embodiments of methods and systems for multi-correlative learning thermal management (“MLTM”) techniques implemented in a portable computing device (“PCD”) are disclosed. Notably, in many PCDs, thermal energy levels measured by individual temperature sensors in the PCD may be attributable to a plurality of processing components, i.e. thermal aggressors. Generally, as more power is consumed by the thermal aggressors, the resulting generation of thermal energy may cause the temperature thresholds associated with temperature sensors located around the chip to be exceeded, thereby necessitating that the performance of the PCD be sacrificed in an effort to reduce thermal energy generation.

Abstract: The apparatus and method for displaying video data are disclosed. Reference refresh frequency and/or time may be predetermined or derived from predetermined values. Measured refresh frequency and/or time of display panels may be determined and compared against the reference refresh frequency and/or time. Based on the comparisons and through one or more control loops, display properties of the display panels may be adjusted so that one or more display panels may be in sync with respect to their refresh timings without dedicated hardware or a common hardwired synchronization signal.
