Abstract: A technique is provided for creating digital memories for a particular person. A data store stores personal data derived from signals gathered from a plurality of sensors that monitor the particular person. Memories creation processing circuitry, responsive to detection of a given event associated with the particular person, performs an augmentation process to generate an augmented given event identifying multiple items of data associated with the given event, including personal data associated with the given event obtained from the data store. The memories creation processing circuitry analyses the multiple items of data identified by the augmented given event in order to generate a given digital memory for the given event. A memories data store stores digital memories generated by the memories creation processing circuitry for the particular person, and memories analysis circuitry determines and maintains associations between the digital memories in the memories data store.

Abstract: Provided is a digital/analog signal processing apparatus and method for controlling exposure of personally identifiable information to be transferred from storage in a secure enclave, comprising a memory and an integrated circuit coupled to the memory, configured to: select a data set stored in the storage; individuate personally identifiable information in the data set; determine an individual person’s subset of personally identifiable information; extract an identifier for the individual person from the subset; interrogate stored data using the identifier to locate metadata comprising permission to expose the individual person’s subset; and responsive to a failure to locate the metadata comprising permission, either: emit a signal seeking the permission; or apply a protective measure to the individual person’s subset of individuated personally identifiable information prior to transfer of the data set in a digital/analog signal outside the secure enclave.

Abstract: A communications system may include a first electronic device that may include a display having an array of pixels, each pixel retaining a given state between refreshes and without electrical power supplied thereto, a first near-field communications (NFC) device, and a first controller coupled to the first NFC device and the display. The communications system may also include a second electronic device to be removably coupled with the first electronic device and comprising a second NFC device and a second controller coupled thereto. The second controller may be configured to determine status information related to the first electronic device and communicate the status information to the first controller via the first and second NFC devices. The first controller may be configured to display on the display the status information.
