Abstract: Techniques and devices for access to high frame-rate radar data via a circular buffer are described. In some implementations, a radar sensor collects radar data regarding objects detected by a radar field and stores the data to a circular buffer. A data manager monitors the circular buffer and processes data requests from multiple applications. Through use of the described techniques and devices, the multiple applications can efficiently access the requested radar frame data from the circular buffer, reducing both memory requirements and processor resource usage associated with providing the requested data.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus related to associating location data with one or more entities. Location data from, for example, mobile devices carried by users, may indicate a first entity as being associated with the given location data. However, one or more affirmative user inputs may indicate that a second entity is additionally, and/or alternatively associated with location data. Accordingly, location data may be associated with the second entity. In some implementations the first entity may be dissociated from the first location data. In some implementations second location data may be identified as being associated with the first entity and the second location data may be associated with the first entity.

Abstract: A user device receives a first media item that is associated with a second media item. The device determines that a playback state for the device indicates that the device is paired with an alternative playback device. The device sends the playback state in a request for the second media item, receives the second media item in a first format for playback on the user device and in a second format for playback on the alternative playback device. The device determines whether the playback state of the device is the same. The device displays a first graphical representation of the second media item in the first format on the user device if the user device is no longer paired with the alternative playback device and displays a second graphical representation of the second media item in the second format on the user device if the user device is still paired with the alternative playback device.

Abstract: Techniques identify time-sensitive content and present the time-sensitive content to communication devices of users interested or potentially interested in the time-sensitive content. A content management component analyzes video or audio content, and extracts information from the content and determines whether the content is time-sensitive content, such as recent news-related content, based on analysis of the content and extracted information. The content management component evaluates user-related information and the extracted information, and determines whether a user(s) is likely to be interested in the time-sensitive content based on the evaluation results. The content management component sends a notification to the communication device(s) of the user(s) in response to determining the user(s) is likely to be interested in the time-sensitive content.
