Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to exploring a geographic region that is displayed in computer user interfaces. In some embodiments, a method includes at an electronic device with a display and one or more input devices, displaying a map of a geographic region on the display and detecting a first user input to select a starting location on the map. After detecting the first user input, the method includes detecting a second user input to select a first direction of navigation from the starting location. In response to detecting the second user input, the method includes determining a path on the map that traverses in the first direction of navigation and connects the starting location to an ending location, and providing audio that includes traversal information about traversing along the path in the geographic region in the first direction of navigation and from the starting location to the ending location.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods that provide content that distracts a user's attention away from discomfort, for example, occurring due to a prior injury or ongoing medical condition. The content is adjusted over time based on tracking the user's attentiveness towards the content. Specifically, the user's current attentive state may be tracked using physiological sensors and used to adapt content to mitigate the perception of discomfort. In some implementations, the user's stress is also assessed and used an indication of the user's current discomfort level to better track when the user's attentive state is shifting from the content to the discomfort and adjust the content accordingly.

Abstract: Bands for electronic devices, including wearable devices, are designed to dynamically alter their shape (e.g., lengthen) in response to an external force. A band may include one or more interior structures disposed in an exterior structure. The interior structure(s) is/are pulled in tension by the exterior structure. When the interior structure(s) is/are pulled in tension, an additional force (e.g., by a user) that applies tension to the interior structure(s) may cause a relatively small change in tension to the interior structure(s). As a result, the band may appear to provide the same amount to users, despite users having a different wrist size/diameter. A similar phenomenon may occur to a single user when the user's wrist changes in size. Accordingly, based on the interior structure(s) being placed in tension by the exterior structure(s), the force provided by the band may appear constant to users.

Abstract: Various implementations provide views of 3D environments (e.g., extended reality (XR) environments). Non-eye-based user activity, such as hand gestures, is associated with some types of eye-based activity, such as the user gazing at a particular user interface component displayed within a view of a 3D environment. For example, a user's pinching hand gesture may be associated with the user gazing at a particular user interface component, such as a button, at around the same time as the pinching hand gesture is made. These associated behaviors (e.g., the pinch and gaze at the button) may then be interpreted as user input, e.g., user input selecting or otherwise acting upon that user interface component. In some implementations, non-eye-based user activity is only associated with types of eye-based user activity that are likely to correspond to a user perceiving what they are seeing and/or intentionally looking at something.

Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that updates state information for a portion of a user interface. For example, an example process may include obtaining a recording of an execution of an application within a three-dimensional (3D) environment. The recording may include 3D appearance information and state information for elements of the application at multiple instances in time. The process may further include presenting a user interface based on the recording where the user interface includes a visualization portion providing a visualization of the 3D appearance of the application based on the 3D appearance information and a state information portion. The process may further include receiving a selection of an element and identifying element-specific information corresponding to the element at a particular instance and updating the state information portion of the user interface based on the selection of the element and the element-specific state information.

Abstract: Various implementations present a representation of a communication session involving multiple devices in different presentation modes based on spatial transforms between a physical environment and the representation of the communication session. For example, a representation of a communication session is presented based on the position of a first device within a first physical environment and a second spatial transform between the first physical environment and the representation of the communication session, in accordance with a determination to switch the first presentation mode to a second presentation mode. Then the representation of the communication session is presented based on the position of the first device within the first physical environment and the first spatial transform in accordance with a determination to switch the second presentation mode back to the first presentation mode.

Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing techniques for channel occupancy rate determination of a channel between a user equipment (UE) and a base station in an unlicensed spectrum. A UE can perform measurements based on a measurement configuration from the base station, and further determine a channel occupancy rate of the channel based on the performed measurements. The measurement configuration indicates to the UE to perform an omni measurement or a directional measurement by using an antenna element of the UE. The UE can further transmit a report to the base station to indicate the channel occupancy rate.

Abstract: An electronic device (that is capable of both transmitting and receiving wireless power) may be physically and inductively coupled to a removable accessory (that only receives wireless power). The electronic device and removable accessory may optionally be placed on a power transmitting device. In response to the electronic device and removable accessory being placed on a wireless power transmitting device, the electronic device may switch from a power transmitting mode (in which the electronic device transmits wireless power to the removable accessory) to a power receiving mode (in which the electronic device receives wireless power from the wireless power transmitting device). To ensure the electronic device detects the wireless power transmitting device and switches to the power receiving mode in this scenario, the electronic device may transmit wireless power in bursts separated by sleep periods while in the power transmitting mode.

Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that facilitate the creation of a 3D model for object detection based on a scan of the object. Some implementations provide a user interface that a user interacts with to facilitate a scan of an object to create 3D model of the object for later object detection. The user interface may include an indicator that provides visual or audible feedback to the user indicating the direction that the capturing device is facing relative to the object being scanned. The direction of the capture device may be identified using sensors on the device (e.g., inertial measurement unit (IMU), gyroscope, etc.) or other techniques (e.g., visual inertial odometry (VIO)) and based on the user positioning the device so that the object is in view.

Abstract: An electronic device with a first off-display input region detects a first portion of an input on the input region. In response to the first portion of the input: when the first portion of the input meets first criteria without a characteristic intensity of the first input increasing above a first intensity threshold, the electronic device provides a first output that indicates a current state of a first attribute of the electronic device without altering the first attribute. The electronic device detects a second portion of the input. In response to the second portion of the input: if the second portion of the first input meets second criteria that require the characteristic intensity of the input increases above the first intensity threshold, the electronic device performs a first operation that alters the first attribute of the electronic device; and otherwise, the electronic device forgoes performing the first operation.

Abstract: In one implementation, a method involves tessellating a surface of a 3D object by identifying vertices having 3D positions. The method transforms the 3D positions into positions for a first sphere-based projection for a left eye viewpoint and positions for a second sphere-based projection for a right eye viewpoint. Transforming the 3D positions of the vertices involves transforming the vertices based on a user orientation (i.e., camera position) and differences left and right eye viewpoints (e.g., based on interaxial distance and convergence angle). The method further renders a stereoscopic 360° rendering of the 3D object based on the first sphere-based projection for the left eye viewpoint and the second sphere-based projection for the right eye viewpoint. For example, an equirectangular representation of the first sphere-based projection can be combined with an equirectangular representation of the second sphere-based projection to provide a file defining a stereoscopic 360° image.

Abstract: A computer system with a display and a touch-sensitive surface receives a request to display a first user interface that includes a first item, and, in response to the request, displays the first user interface with a representation of the first item. Depending on whether the first item corresponds to a respective virtual three-dimensional object, the first item is displayed either with a visual indication to indicate that the first item corresponds to a first respective virtual three-dimensional object or without the visual indication. In response to a request to display a second user interface, the second user interface is displayed with a representation of the second item. Depending on whether the second item corresponds to a respective virtual three-dimensional object, the representation of the second item is displayed with or without the visual indication.

Abstract: Various techniques for implementing resistive temperature sensors that rely on the resistors' temperature sensitivity to provide temperature sensing are disclosed. Temperature sensitive resistors may be implemented in a resistor stack in combination with a resistor stack of resistors that are relatively temperature indifferent. Various temperature sensor circuits implementing these temperature sensitive resistors are also disclosed. A temperature sensor circuit may implement the temperature sensitive resistors along with the resistors that are relatively stable with temperature to output a voltage signal that is indicative of the temperature sensed by the circuit. In some instances, the signal from the temperature sensitive resistors is increased through the use of a feedback resistor loop.
