Publication number: 20250106618Abstract: This Application describes mechanisms for enterprise remote management of cellular services provided via access credentials, e.g., subscriber identity modules (SIMs) and/or electronic SIMs (eSIMs), for wireless devices. To minimize requirements for user interaction, installation and management of business-supplied cellular service profiles on the wireless device can intercept alert notifications to reduce interruptions and allow for background management of the business-supplied cellular service profiles. Additionally, a business enterprise can use multiple, distinct services to initiate installation of an eSIM to a wireless device. When two different services attempt to install eSIMs on the wireless device in parallel, management software on the wireless device can control an order of installation and disallow duplicate installations of an identical eSIM to the wireless device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2024Publication date: March 27, 2025Inventors: Can XIONG, Sherman X. JIN, Eric ZELENKA, Graham S. McLUHAN, Li LI, Rafael L. RIVERA-BARRETO, Raj S. CHAUGULE, Rohan C. MALTHANKAR

Publication number: 20250104366Abstract: Instead of having a constant boundary, artificial reality (XR) applications that can run in boundaryless mode (e.g., in augmented or mixed reality) can be given controls by selective boundary system on an XR system to customize partial boundaries. For example, an application can specify to select particular boundaries when certain object types are in the real-world environment. In another example, an application can transition to different boundary modes when certain application events occur (e.g., when transitioning from virtual reality to mixed reality). On the backend, the selective boundary system can provide the application with an API that exposes boundary information. Based on this information, the application can use the API to create new boundaries or turn on or off certain boundaries based on requests by the application.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 20, 2024Publication date: March 27, 2025Inventors: Biju MATHEW, Christopher Richard TANNER, Jianhan XU, Wenxin XU, Shen LI, Peter JU, James Alexander VALORI, Eric LEUNG, Lu ZHOU
