Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for providing security notification based on biometric identifier are described, in which one or more biometric information of a person may be utilized to permit or prohibit the person to access the vehicle. As such, the person may not access (or operate) the vehicle without satisfying security measures based on his/her biometric identifier generated from various biological information collected from the person. When the person is not authorized to access the vehicle, the security measures may transmit a security notification to an owner of the vehicle (e.g., a mobile device of the owner, an account of the owner) such that the owner may take appropriate steps in response to receiving the security notification. Such a notification may include the biometric information of the person, other information collected from the sensing component, a set of options for the owner to select from, among others.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for data prioritization and selective data processing are described herein. A computing device may receive sensor data and prioritize a first portion of the sensor data over a second portion of the sensor data. The first portion of sensor data may be stored in a first memory that has a higher access rate than a second memory where the second portion of sensor data is stored. The first portion of sensor data may be processed with priority and the second portion of sensor data may be transmitted to a cloud computing device.

In an example, a method can include receiving, by a memory system that comprises a plurality of memory media types, initial image data from an image sensor coupled to the memory system, identifying one or more attributes of the initial image data, determining a type of memory media to write the initial image data to based on the identified attributes of the initial image data , and selecting, based at least in part on the determined type of memory media, a first memory type of the plurality of memory media types to write the initial image data.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include apparatuses and methods for sensor blocking. In a number of embodiments, a method can include operating a sensor block of an apparatus in a first mode to allow a sensor to receive inputs, and operating the sensor block in a second mode to inhibit the sensor from receiving the inputs. A sensor block can be used to prevent a sensor, such as an image sensor, from receiving an input, such as a light source input, to capture image data. A sensor block can be used to prevent a sensor from capturing image data even when an application causing to the sensor to operate, such as when applications have access to the sensor, but the user of a device is unaware that an application is using the sensor. The sensor block can be used to prevent the sensor from capturing useful images and the sensor can only capture a black image of the sensor block and not the surroundings of the device.
