Abstract: The subject disclosure is directed towards a technology by which a device includes one or more haptic feedback mechanisms that may be operated in a controlled manner to output amplitude-controlled vibrations. In one aspect, the vibrations from at least two haptic feedback mechanisms are combined, providing different amplitudes at different device locations. In one aspect, a haptic feedback mechanism outputs vibrations with a one amplitude in one state, and another, different amplitude in at least one other state, as controlled by the controller. The different states may correspond to different weights being driven at different times, and/or different positions of one or more weights.

Abstract: An aspect provides a method, including: receiving image data from a visual sensor of an information handling device; receiving audio data from one or more microphones of the information handling device; identifying, using one or more processors, human speech in the audio data; identifying, using the one or more processors, a pattern of visual features in the image data associated with speaking; matching, using the one or more processors, the human speech in the audio data with the pattern of visual features in the image data associated with speaking; selecting, using the one or more processors, a primary speaker from among matched human speech; assigning control to the primary speaker; and performing one or more actions based on audio input of the primary speaker. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: A device and method include detecting signal strength received at a mobile cellular communication device. A dropped call is detected between the device and another device as a function of detected signal strength. The dropped call is reconnected when detected signal strength reaches a selected first threshold.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are disclosed for capturing video content. A buffer stores a most recent time interval of a video signal. A capture module stops overwrite of a stored video signal in response to a capture command. A copy module retrieves the stored video signal.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are presented for adapting a user interface of a remote desktop host. The apparatus includes a processor, a memory, a detection module and an adaptation module. The detection module detects a remote desktop connection between a remote client and a host. The remote client and the host may have different user interface characteristics. The adaptation module adapts a user interface of the host to accommodate user interface characteristics of the remote client.

Abstract: A first device captures session data for each application session that is executing on a first device, and provides the session data to a second device in order for the second device to reconstruct the application sessions. A first device identifies one or more application sessions currently executing on the first device. Each of the application sessions include a media object and session data, which includes a media object identifier that corresponds to the media object and a first device media session position. The first device captures the session data transmits the captured session data to one or more second devices. The second devices are adapted to reconstruct at least one of the application sessions using the received session data and positions the application sessions at a second device media session position that corresponds to the received first device media session position.
