Abstract: A system may include electronic devices such as a head-mounted electronic device, a cellular telephone, a wristwatch device, a computer, and other devices. During operation of the system, one or more of the electronic devices may gather information on the positions of the electronic devices. Information may also be gathered on the positions of objects and obstructions. This position information and/or other information such as information on which sensor resources are available in each of the devices may be used to determine which of the sensors of the electronic devices in the room should be shared. Shared sensors may gather information that is communicated wirelessly to other devices for use by those devices.

Abstract: A head-mounted device may include optical assemblies for presenting images to a user. Actuators may be used to adjust the spacing between the optical assemblies to accommodate different interpupillary distances. Upon detection of a power-down event or drop event, the device may be placed into an impact-safe mode. During the safe mode, the optical assemblies may be moved to predetermined impact-safe positions, brakes such as optical guide rail brakes may be adjusted, cushioning springs may be deployed, clutches may be adjusted, and/or other safety mechanisms may be activated to help protect the optical assemblies or other sensitive components from damage.

Abstract: Range finding methods and apparatus that may be implemented by VR/MR systems that include a head-mounted display (HMD) and an accessory that the user holds or wears. Range finding sensors (e.g., ultrasonic transducers) may be included on the HMD and on the accessory and used to track distances to and relative position of walls, objects, and other obstacles within constrained physical environments such as rooms, gyms, yards, or fields, or in unconstrained physical environments. Range finding information from the sensors on the HMD and accessory can be used to generate a 3D map of the user's environment that can be used for various purposes in the VR/MR system. In addition to mapping the user's environment, the range finding methods and apparatus may also be used to track the relative position of the accessory with respect to the HMD.

Abstract: An apparatus of a New Radio (NR) User Equipment (UE), a method and system. The apparatus includes one or more processors to encode a two part CSI including: encode a two part CSI including: encoding information bits of a first channel state information (CSI) type and information bits of a second CSI part to generate, respectively, encoded bits of a first CSI part and encoded bits of a second CSI part, a payload size of the second CSI part being based on encoded bits of the first CSI part and further being encoded separately from information bits of the first CSI part; and mapping the encoded bits of the first CSI part onto a first physical resource and the encoded bits of the second CSI part onto a second physical resource different from the first physical resource; and configure the two part CSI in a long or short PUCCH for transmission to a NR evolved Node B (gNodeB).

Abstract: A spatial light system that may, for example, be used to project image content onto surfaces of a room. The system may include two or more projection units for emitting light onto surfaces within a room. The system may include a controller and two or more projection units, each module including an LED array, an array of light pipes, and a condenser lens. Two or more projection units may be connected to a flexible strip that provides power and data (e.g., serial data) to the projection units. Two or more flex strips may be connected together. The flex strips provide a serially-connected, flexible modular architecture for spatial light systems that allow the projection units to be conformed to a variety of configurations and shapes.

Abstract: Sensor data indicating a user's response to an avatar experience in which the user experiences a rendered avatar model is obtained. A perceptual quality metric value corresponding to the rendered avatar model is determined based on the sensor data and a determined relationship between the sensor data and the perceptual quality metric value. The avatar model is re-rendered for display based on the perceptual quality metric value.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods, systems, and devices for uplink data integrity protection in a communication system including a radio access network (RAN) serving a user equipment (UE) operating in an Early Data Transmission (EDT) configuration. In one example, a method involves generating a hash marker based on a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) control protocol data unit (PDU) or service data unit (SDU). The method also involves transmitting a message including the hash marker to the RAN.

Abstract: This application describes a phased approach to provision eSIM profiles to a wireless device. Credentials are preloaded to an eUICC during manufacture of the eUICC and used subsequently to load eSIM profiles to the eUICC without requiring an active, real-time connection to an MNO provisioning server. Multiple bound profile packages (BPPs) can be pre-generated and encrypted by MNO provisioning servers for an eUICC and transferred to a BPP aggregator server before assembly of the eUICC in a respective wireless device. A local provisioning server in a manufacturing facility mutually authenticates and connects to the BPP aggregator server to download and store one or more of the encrypted BPPs for later installation on the eUICC. The local provisioning server subsequently mutually authenticates and connects to the eUICC to load at least one of the one or more pre-generated, encrypted BPPs to the eUICC during assembly and/or testing of the wireless device.

Abstract: A device implementing a system for initiating a business messaging session includes at least one processors configured to receive a selection of a telephone number on a device. The at least one processor is further configured to transmit an encoded identifier corresponding to the telephone number to a server. The at least one processor is further configured to determine whether the telephone number is registered for a business messaging system based at least in part on a response received from the server. The at least one processor is further configured to provide a first display element for initiating communication with the telephone number via the business messaging system when the telephone number is registered for the business messaging system, otherwise providing a second display element for initiating communication with the telephone number via a user messaging system.

A view of a user interface may be presented that includes an activity user list. The activity user list may include user identifiers of activity user and updatable graphical fitness user interface elements. A detailed view of for a particular activity user may be presented.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods, systems, and devices for measuring a reference signal received power (RSRP) in a user equipment (UE) that operates in machine type communication (MTC). In one example, a method involves receiving, from a radio access network (RAN) serving the UE, a resynchronization signal (RSS). The method also involves calculating a reference signal received power (RSRP) of the RSS.
