Abstract: An aspect of the disclosure pertains to detecting a position of a blood pressure measurement device. An inflatable bladder of the blood pressure measurement device defines, at least in part, a pressurizable volume. The inflatable bladder may be inflated to pressurize a user's appendage and temporarily occlude blood flow in the user's appendage. A pump may initiate inflation of the inflatable bladder when one or more accelerometers and/or one or more proximity sensors determine that the blood pressure measurement device is within sufficient proximity or elevation to a user's heart and stationary.

Abstract: Techniques and devices for a hierarchical framework of contexts for the smart home are described for managing modes in a smart home system by an electronic device. The electronic device receives a first input of a model for a second operational mode of a smart home system and receives a second input of the model for the second operational mode of the smart home system. Based on the first input and the second input, the electronic device determines an effective time interval for the second operational mode that is effective to cause the smart home system to transition from a first operational mode to the second operational mode during the effective time interval.

Abstract: This document describes systems and techniques directed at an altitude enhanced geofence. In aspects, a geofence manager maintains a three-dimensional virtual boundary for a geographic area associated with a user. The geofence manager determines a spatial positioning of a portable electronic device associated with the user relative to the virtual boundary. Based on a determination that the portable electronic device is within a horizontal boundary of the virtual boundary, the geofence manager monitors a barometric pressure surrounding the portable electronic device using information from at least one sensor associated with the portable electronic device. The geofence manager can determine an altitude of the portable electronic device based on the monitored pressure and initiate one or more functions if the altitude indicates the portable electronic device is within a vertical boundary of the virtual boundary.

Abstract: This document describes systems and techniques directed at autogenerated language model notifications. In aspects, a device management system associated with a network of network-connected devices includes a prompt manager. The prompt manager obtains metadata associated with the network and integrates at least portions of data from the metadata into one or more templated prompts to create an instantiated prompt. The instantiated prompt can be transmitted to a language model to generate a language model output. The prompt manager may then provide, based on the language model output, a notification to a user associated with at least one network-connected device. Through such a technique, the prompt manager can improve user experience and facilitate user proactiveness managing their network of network-connected devices.

The activity monitoring device includes a housing configured for attachment to a body part of a user and a display screen attached to the housing. Further included is a first sensor disposed in the housing for capturing motion of the activity monitoring device when attached to the body part of the user and a second sensor disposed in the housing for sampling a heart rate of the user.
