Abstract: A first method comprising: predicting a scene of an environment using a model of the environment and based on a first scene of the environment obtained from sensors observing scenes of the environment; comparing the predicted scene with an observed scene from the sensors; and performing an action based on differences determined between the predicted scene and the observed scene. A second method comprising applying a vibration stimuli on an object via a computer-controlled component; obtaining a plurality of images depicting the object from a same viewpoint, captured during the application of the vibration stimuli. The second method further comprising comparing the plurality of images to detect changes occurring in response to the application of the vibration stimuli, which changes are attributed to a change of a location of a boundary of the object; and determining the boundary of the object based on the comparison.

Abstract: Technologies are generally described for systems, devices and methods effective to detect a potential attack on a memory of a memory device. In some examples, a processor may send a request to the memory device. The request may include a request for information that relates to memory writes to the memory of the memory device. The processor may receive a response from the memory device. The response may include the information that relates to the memory writes. The processor may determine, based on the response, an amount of memory of the memory device written to during an interval of time. The processor may detect the potential attack based on the amount of memory written to and based on the interval of time. The processor may then generate an alert based on the detection of the potential attack.

Abstract: Technologies are generally described to establish a hardware interconnect based communication between SSD controllers. According to some examples, a first solid state drive (SSD) controller and a second SSD controller are detected. The hardware interconnect is detected between the first SSD controller and the second SSD controller.

In some examples, the method includes receiving a request to delegate a user interface-related task to a delegated computing device, and causing the transceiver of the delegating device to send a delegation command to the delegated computing device to establish a delegation session on the delegated computing device. The delegation command requests establishment of a delegated user interface to facilitate performance of the user interface-related task on the delegated computing device, and the delegated user interface is substantially similar to the user interface of the delegating device. The method also includes exchanging data associated with the user interface-related task with the delegated computing device.
