Abstract: Systems and method are disclosed for facilitating efficient calibration of filters for correcting room and/or speaker-based distortion and/or binaural imbalances in audio reproduction, and/or for producing three-dimensional sound in stereo system environments. According to some embodiments, using a portable device such as a smartphone or tablet, a user can calibrate speakers by initiating playback of a test signal, detecting playback of the test signal with the portable device's microphone, and repeating this process for a number of speakers and/or device positions (e.g., next to each of the user's ears). A comparison can be made between the test signal and the detected signal, and this can be used to more precisely calibrate rendering of future signals by the speakers.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for vehicle policy management and enforcement. In certain embodiments, a method for enforcing a policy may include receiving policy information at a device including one or more conditions relating to a policy-managed location in a vehicle. A determination may be made whether the device is within the policy-managed location based on signals received by a short-range communication system included in the device and/or the vehicle. The received policy information may be evaluated to determine and implement one or more device actions associated with the one or more conditions.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for managing content. In one embodiment, a method of managing electronic content from a plurality of a user's computing devices is disclosed. Content from the devices is automatically uploaded to a media hub service that securely routes, processes, synchronizes, and/or stores the content in accordance one or more user-specified policies.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for facilitating a security and trust architecture in connected vehicles. In certain embodiments, a method for creating a trusted architecture in a connected vehicle may include generating a connected vehicle ecosystem map including information relating to a plurality of electronic control units and network connections included in the connected vehicle. Based on the vehicle ecosystem map, trusted relationships involving electronic control units may be identified. Trusted credentials may be generated and issued to electronic control units that meet one or more trust requirements. Using the trusted credentials, trusted communication within the connected vehicle may be achieved.

Abstract: Software self-checking mechanisms are described for improving software tamper resistance and/or reliability. Redundant tests are performed to detect modifications to a program while it is running. Modifications are recorded or reported. Embodiments of the software self-checking mechanisms can be implemented such that they are relatively stealthy and robust, and so that it they are compatible with copy-specific static watermarking and other tamper-resistance techniques.

Abstract: Trusted, privacy-protected systems and method are disclosed for processing, handling, and performing tests on human genomic and other information. According to some embodiments, a system is disclosed that is a cloud-based system for the trusted storage and analysis of genetic and other information. Some embodiments of the system may include or support some or all of authenticated and certified data sources; authenticated and certified diagnostic tests; and policy-based access to data.
