Patent number: 11145299Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer-readable storage devices, for managing voice interface devices. In some implementations, messages are received from a plurality of devices, each of the messages indicating a respective voice input detected by the device that sent the message. Audio signatures are obtained for the voice inputs detected by the plurality of devices. The audio signatures for the voice inputs and times that the voice inputs were detected are evaluated. Based on the evaluation, at least some of the plurality of devices are grouped to form a group of multiple devices that detected a same user utterance. A device from the group is selected to respond to the user utterance, and the multiple devices in the group are managed so that only the selected device outputs a synthesized speech response to the user utterance.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2018Date of Patent: October 12, 2021Assignee: X Development LLCInventors: Meltem Oktem, Max Benjamin Braun

Publication number: 20190331914Abstract: An experience sharing session can be established with a wearable computing device. A field of view of an environment can be provided through a head-mounted display (HMD) of the wearable computing device. The HMD is operable to display a computer-generated image overlaying at least a portion of the view. At least one image of the environment can be captured using a camera associated with the wearable computing device. The wearable computing device can receive an indication of a region of interest within the environment via the experience sharing session. The wearable computing device can display, on the HMD, the indication of the region of interest.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2018Publication date: October 31, 2019Inventors: Steven John Lee, Indika Charles Mendis, Max Benjamin Braun, Bradley James Rhodes, Casey Ho, Michael Patrick Johnson
