  • Patent number: 9858848
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, computer program product, and a computer system for recommending one or more bend locations on a flexible display. According to one embodiment, the display is flexible and transparent, and the display includes at least one sensor. A set of data is received from the at least one sensor. Based on the received set of data the system detects whether, ambient light is reflected off the display at an angle directed at a first user. The system then determines a bend line location, wherein the bend line is a location to bend the display to obstruct reflected light from reaching the first user and sends an alert to the first user identifying the bend line location.

  • Publication number: 20170302991
    Abstract: Delivery of audio content is tailored to individual users. A viewing direction of a user to a display presenting a video stream showing a scene of an environment is determined. A physical location, in the environment, that the user is viewing in the scene is determined, and an audio stream, of several audio streams obtained from different physical locations in the environment, is identified that correlates to the determined physical location that the user is viewing. The identified audio stream is then provided to the user. Additional aspects include identifying potentially interesting areas from which audio streams are obtained and selectively triggered by users for provision to the users. Further aspects include an ability for a user to identify for other users a particular area that the user views to obtain interesting audio, informing the other users that the user is listening to interesting audio associated with that particular area.

  • Publication number: 20170280539
    Abstract: A method and system for automatically determining a utility light malfunction is provided. The method includes receiving, from a first hardware device, luminance data specifying current luminance levels associated with utility light apparatuses. Location data specifying a geographical location for each utility light apparatus is retrieved and the luminance data and location data are analyzed with respect to historical luminance data and historical location data associated with the utility light apparatuses. The analysis results in determining that a group of utility light apparatuses include first current luminance levels differing from previous luminance levels of the group. A list and associated map specifying a group of geographical locations associated with the group is generated. A control signal enabling control of a vehicle is transmitted to the vehicle and associated video data is retrieved via the vehicle during travel in accordance with the map.

  • Publication number: 20170277179
    Abstract: A method and system for automatically supplying parts for an assembly line is provided. The method includes generating and executing an action plan specifying movements associated with a robotic apparatus associated with the assembly line, items required for the assembly line, and a vehicle associated with providing the items for the robotic apparatus. The vehicle is directed to a location comprising the items and a first item is selected and retrieved upon arriving at the location. A measured weight of the first item is compared to a predetermined maximum weight threshold for delivery by the vehicle and a resulting delivery process with respect to the vehicle, first item, and robotic apparatus is executed. A notification indicating details associated with the delivery process is transmitted to the robotic apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20160320786
    Abstract: Models of a distribution network grid are automatically updated in response to real-time location data of uniquely identified temporary devices. Current geographical coordinates are determined within a distance tolerance that is selected as a function of a type of device indicated by the identity indicia. The geographical information system model is updated with a location of a unique identity of the device at the determined current geographical coordinates within the distance tolerance if unique identity of the device not already present within the geographical information system model, or if it is present and a displacement distance from the determined current geographical coordinates of the temporary device to existing geographic coordinates that are stored in the geographical information system model in association with the unique device identity exceeds a specified distance margin.
