  • Publication number: 20180293221
    Abstract: A method to execute computer-actionable directives conveyed in human speech comprises: receiving audio data recording speech from one or more speakers; converting the audio data into a linguistic representation of the recorded speech; detecting a target corresponding to the linguistic representation; committing to the data structure language data associated with the detected target and based on the linguistic representation; parsing the data structure to identify one or more of the computer-actionable directives; and submitting the one or more of the computer-actionable directives to the computer for processing.

  • Patent number: 9826938
    Abstract: A method of optical heart rate sensing includes receiving a motion frequency from a motion sensor and receiving an optical signal from an optical sensor. The motion frequency is then filtered from the optical signal, and an estimated heart rate frequency is determined based on the filtered optical signal. A heart rate is reported that is based on the motion frequency, but not based on the estimated heart rate frequency, when a local neighbor magnitude ratio of the estimated heart rate frequency is below a confidence threshold.
