  • Patent number: 11930243
    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein may provide a system that enables game play or other application sessions from a set of candidate game hosts and environments to consumption devices of a user's choice while the user moves about their home between the different environments. The system may employ methods to determine where a user is located within the home, availability and selection of candidate game hosting and target environments, homing and direction of related I/O and audio-visual (AV) content for consumption. The solution accommodates multiple users simultaneously within the home, whether in single player, multiplayer using the same screen, or multiplayer using separate screen games. The solution may configure AV and input/output (I/O) such that multiple users can consume one or multiple games in the home simultaneously, whether in separate locations or when seated together in front of the same consumption device.

  • Publication number: 20240021316
    Abstract: A data-driven, intelligent ergonomic behavioral aid based on uniquely captured telemetry and user behavior data is provided. The aggregation of the telemetry data and user presence events over time can provide sufficient context to understand user patterns and behavior as well as the user's environment. The provided system may learn from this data and recommend to the user best practices and actions to take to minimize the health risk specific to their behavior with respect to the computing ecosystem. In some instances, the provided system may initiate one or more actions, rather than a recommendation, that force the user to change their behavior if the user desires to continue interacting with the computing ecosystem.

  • Publication number: 20230315605
    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatuses for a user interaction recognition. In an aspect, a method includes receiving, at a server, first telemetry information from a first device, the first telemetry information associated with a first user session of a first application, the first user session associated with a first user. The method further includes receiving second telemetry information from a second device, the second telemetry information associated with a second user session of a second application, the second user session associated with a second user. The method also includes generating an interaction candidate based on a comparison of the first telemetry information and the second telemetry information, and transmitting the interaction candidate to the first device.

  • Patent number: 11489892
    Abstract: As part of virtual meetings, information that has been visually presented to the participants may be distributed to all or some of the participants. Embodiments provide capabilities for identifying such shared information to be distributed to virtual meeting participants based on the context in which the information was shared. A user joining a collaborative session via a first IHS (Information Handling System) is detected and affiliations of the user are determined. The display of information to the user via a collaboration tool is detected. Activity by the user is monitored while the shared information is displayed to the user via the collaboration tool. An event is detected that triggers distribution of the displayed information. Whether to distribute the displayed information to the user's IHS is determined based on the user's affiliations, attributes of the information and the monitored activity of the user during the display of the information.

  • Patent number: 10775885
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides embodiments of systems and methods that may be used by an information handling system (IHS) to improve the accuracy of eye tracking data generated by an eye tracking system of the IHS when a user's gaze is not directed to a gaze interaction plane of the eye tracking system. In one embodiment, the method may include receiving first data corresponding to a hinge angle (?) measured between a first surface and a second surface of the IHS, receiving second data corresponding to a user's gaze on the first surface or the second surface, and using the first data and the second data to provide accurate eye tracking data when the user's gaze is directed to the second surface. When the user's gaze is directed to the first surface, the method may use the second data, but not the first data, to provide accurate eye tracking data.
