  • Patent number: 11930267
    Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with control circuitry, wireless transceiver circuitry, and a display. The electronic device may be used to provide information to a user in response to being pointed at a particular object. The control circuitry may determine when the electronic device is pointed at a particular object using wireless control circuitry and/or motion sensor circuitry. In response to determining that the electronic device is pointed at a particular object, the control circuitry may take suitable action. This may include, for example, displaying information about an object when the electronic device is pointed at the object, displaying control icons for electronic equipment when the electronic device is pointed at the electronic equipment, and/or displaying a virtual object when the electronic device is pointed at real world object.

  • Publication number: 20240070189
    Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to providing device messages in image compilations based on user content. A computer-implemented method includes determining that a playback mode is entered on a device to display one or more image compilations, each image compilation including images for successive display. Message criteria are obtained for device messages, each device message indicating a device function associated with images of the image compilations or of a user image library. A device message is selected based on associated message criteria. An image is identified in the user image library, the image being in the image compilations, depicts a type of image feature in the image compilations, and/or has characteristic(s) modifiable by the device function. The device message is displayed during image compilation playback and includes the identified image and a message control option. In response to user selection of the message control option, the device function is initiated.

  • Publication number: 20240061844
    Abstract: An event query host can include an event processor configured to process an event stream indicating events that occurred on a computing device. The event processor can add representations of events to an event graph. If an event added to the event graph is a trigger event associated with a query, the event processor can also add an instance of the query to a query queue. The query queue can be sorted based on scheduled execution times of query instances. At a scheduled execution time of a query instance in the query queue, a query manager of the event query host can execute the query instance and attempt to find a corresponding pattern of one or more events in the event graph.
