  • Publication number: 20250080962
    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a device that receives data from a machine-type communication (MTC) device located at a premises, determines an identifier for the MTC device; compares the identifier with a list of identifiers; and, responsive to determining that the MTC device is a listed device, transmits the data to a first network element remote from the premises. The device and the first network element do not receive data from devices at the premises generating human traffic communications (HTC). The first network element transmits the data to a second network element for aggregation and subsequent transmission to a cloud data facility comprising cloud storage. A data path from the device to the first network element, from the first network element to the second network element, and from the second network element to the cloud data facility forms a secure data path.

  • Publication number: 20250078378
    Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to detection of attention exhibited by a second user to a first user's avatar in a virtual reality environment. A first user's avatar activity and the second user's activity are evaluated to determine the second user's (e.g., via another avatar) attention level directed towards first user's avatar. Information can be sent to notify the first user that the second user's attention level has satisfied attention-level criterion data. For example, if the second user is viewing and/or is within audio range of the first user for too long of a time or too frequently, then the first user can be notified and/or other action taken. Remedial action is available for negative attention, such blocking the second user from experiencing the first user in the environment. Detection of attention for positive purposes is available, such as to reward an influencer whose avatar is receiving significant attention from followers.

  • Patent number: 12245166
    Abstract: A wireless communication network wirelessly transmits data signals to wireless communication devices. The wireless communication network wirelessly transmits reference signals to the wireless communication devices at an initial reference signal power level. The wireless communication network determines an amount of the wireless communication devices that wirelessly receive the data signals. The wireless communication network determines a new reference signal power level based on the amount of the wireless communication devices that wirelessly receive the data signals. The wireless communication network wirelessly transmits additional reference signals to the wireless communication devices at the new reference signal power level.
