  • Patent number: 10768644
    Abstract: In embodiments of camera data access based on subscription status, a camera device captures and communicates video to a server device that receives the video, and records and maintains the video as remotely recorded video. An application implemented by a client computing device provides all access, some access, or no access to the remotely recorded video at the server device based on a subscription level corresponding to the camera device. The server device manages subscription levels associated with the user of the camera device, the subscription levels each delineating a level of access to the remotely recorded video. A first subscription level provides access to the live video captured by the camera device, and at least a second subscription level provides access to both the live video and the remotely recorded video at the server device.

  • Patent number: 10770035
    Abstract: This document describes techniques and systems that enable a smartphone-based radar system for facilitating awareness of user presence and orientation. The techniques and systems use a radar field to accurately determine a user's location and physical orientation with respect to an electronic device, such as a smartphone. The radar field also enables the device to receive 3D gestures from the user to interact with the device. The techniques allow the device to provide functionality based on the user's presence and orientation, and to appropriately adjust the timing, content, and format of the device's interactions with the user.

  • Publication number: 20200278422
    Abstract: Various embodiments utilize application-based processing parameters to dynamically configure a radar-based detection system based upon an operating context of an associated device. A first application with execution priority on a device dynamically configures the radar-based detection system to emit a radar field suitable for a first operating context associated with the first application. The first application can also dynamically configure processing parameters of the radar-based detection system, such as digital signal processing parameters and machine-learning parameters. In some cases, a second application assumes execution priority over the first application, and dynamically reconfigures the radar-based detection system to emit a radar field suitable to a second operating context associated with the second application.

  • Patent number: 10764708
    Abstract: Sound is produced through headphones in a manner that improves user experience and increases safety. In some circumstances, such as when the user is moving during exercise, commuting, etc., an audio safety spatialization mode of the headphones is automatically activated. In this mode, sound is spatialized such that when the user turns his head, the sound appears to be generated from a same position in space as before the user turned his head. If the user's head remains in the turned position, the spatialized sound will return to an initialized position with respect to the user's head.
