  • Patent number: 10317505
    Abstract: A computer system is provided that includes one or more processors configured to receive a stream of data from a plurality of network connected devices configured to measure physical parameters, and store a user profile including user settings for a plurality of notification subscriptions associated with physical parameters measured by the plurality of network connected devices. Each notification subscription includes programming logic for a trigger condition for a candidate notification based on measured physical parameters and an associated component sound for the candidate notification. The one or more processors are further configured to determine that trigger conditions for a plurality of candidate notifications are met based on the received stream of data, and generate a composite sound output including a plurality of component sounds associated with the plurality of notifications rendered.

  • Patent number: 10317216
    Abstract: A wearable device is configured with various sensory devices that recurrently monitor and gather data for a physical environment surrounding a user to help locate and track real-world objects. The various heterogeneous sensory devices digitize objects and the physical world. Each sensory device is configured with a threshold data change, in which, when the data picked up by one or more sensory devices surpasses the threshold, a query is performed on each sensor graph or sensory device. The queried sensor graph data is stored within a node in a spatial graph, in which nodes are connected to each other using edges to create spatial relationships between objects and spaces. Objects can be uploaded into an object graph associated with the spatial graph, in which the objects are digitized with each of the available sensors. This digital information can be subsequently used to, for example, locate the object.

  • Publication number: 20180129262
    Abstract: A mobile computing device is provided that includes a processor, an accelerometer, two or more display devices, and a housing including the processor, the accelerometer, and the two or more display devices, determine a current user focus indicating that a first display device of the pair of display devices is being viewed by the user, and that a second display device of the pair of display devices is not being viewed by the user, detect a signature gesture input based on accelerometer data received via the accelerometer detecting that the mobile computing device has been rotated more than a threshold degree, determine that the current user focus has changed from the first display device to the second display device based on at least detecting the signature gesture input, and perform a predetermined action based on the current user focus.
