Abstract: A system may configure at least a low power engine (LPE) and network interface circuitry when transitioning from an active state to a low-power state. The network interface circuitry may be configured to receive information from a network and to store any received information containing audio information into a memory location. The LPE may be configured to monitor the memory location, to retrieve the stored information from the memory location, to generate audio information based on the stored information and to provide the audio information to audio circuitry for playback. It is also possible for the LPE to receive audio information from the audio circuitry, to generate information for transmission based on the audio information and to store the information into a second memory location. The network interface circuitry may then retrieve the stored information from the second memory location and transmit the information to the network.

Abstract: A method, system, and device for analyzing images captured by a vehicle-based camera includes establishing a communication connection between a mobile communication device and an in-vehicle computing system. Scanning data may be retrieved from a scanning data server by the mobile communication device and, in some embodiments, forwarded to the in-vehicle computing system. A vehicle-base camera may be used to capture one or more images. An image analysis module of the in-vehicle computing system or mobile communication device may be used to analyze the captured image(s) for a match between the image(s) and the scanning data. In response to identifying a match, the mobile communication device may notify the scanning data server of the identified match.

Abstract: Techniques from the proposed invention relate to providing enhanced security. For example, techniques described herein allow a computer system, such as a mobile device, to support a wide variety of security functions and security sensitive applications on a mobile device by providing enhanced security via secure input and output data transmission and verification through a secure module. The secure module may cause user interfaces to be provided to users by providing obfuscated user interface data to the operating system that do not reveal elements that are part of the user interfaces. The secure module may receive obfuscated user input values representing user input values, and de-obfuscate these user input values, whereby the actual input values are not exposed to the underlying operating system. The secure module may track the flow of user input/output data through the computing device to ensure the integrity and authenticity of this data.

Abstract: A method, device, and system for secure end-to-end audio recognition is disclosed. A client device launches an application that connects with a server. The client device and server exchange cryptographic keys and establish a secure connection and a shared cryptographic key. The server transmits an encrypted audio prompt to the client device. The client device decrypts the encrypted audio prompt and stores the decrypted audio prompt in secure memory inaccessible to the operating system using an audio engine of the client device. The audio engine then retrieves the audio and renders it for the user through the speakers of the client device. The client device captures the user's audio response with a microphone and stores the audio response in the secure memory. The stored audio response is encrypted and transmitted to the server.
