Abstract: Embodiments of display control based on dynamic user interactions generally include capturing a plurality of temporally sequential images of the user, or a body part or other control object manipulated by the user, and computationally analyzing the images to recognize a gesture performed by the user. In some embodiments, a scale indicative of an actual gesture distance traversed in performance of the gesture is identified, and a movement or action is displayed on the device based, at least in part, on a ratio between the identified scale and the scale of the displayed movement. In some embodiments, a degree of completion of the recognized gesture is determined, and the display contents are modified in accordance therewith. In some embodiments, a dominant gesture is computationally determined from among a plurality of user gestures, and an action displayed on the device is based on the dominant gesture.

Abstract: A method for the determination of a speed vector for a gesture recognition system in a motor vehicle is disclosed. The method includes detection of movement data by a detection unit, and transmission of the movement data to a processing unit in the form of vectors. A totalling of the vectors to form a total vector occurs using the processing unit, until either the total vector reaches a predetermined minimum length or a predetermined number of vectors is totalled. If the predetermined number of vectors is totalled and the predetermined minimum length of the total vector is not reached, a determination of the speed vector as a zero vector occurs. If the predetermined minimum length of the total vector is reached, a determination of the speed vector occurs by averaging the information contained in the total vector. An accurate and dynamic determination of the speed vector is thereby achieved.

Abstract: Cooperation among functional units of a cluster of smart devices is programmed by a user using a spreadsheet. The user authors spreadsheet formulas to calculate target states of active units of the cluster according to the contents of spreadsheet cells that include current states of functional units of the cluster. Programming messages based on the spreadsheet formulas are received by the smart devices of the cluster and program those smart devices for autonomous operation. Processors of the smart devices then receive updated current states of functional units of the cluster, calculate the target states of the active units according to the received updated current states, and control the active units toward reaching their calculated target states.

Abstract: Described is a poll-based system that provides an on-line network of products, goods and services that are determined through polling each of the users. This system polls a user with a variety of questions. The system compares, in real-time, the current user's responses with all products, goods and services to identify which most similarly match the answered questions to that of the user. As the user progressively answers questions, the system updates the matching and presentation of products, goods and services. Thus, as the user answers polling questions, the selected answers are compared against the selected descriptions of other products, goods and services to generate a likelihood of match between the user and each of the products, goods and services. The profiles of products, goods and services that have a likelihood of match within a predetermined threshold are then presented, including links within the profile for specific purchases.
