Abstract: In one aspect, a headset may include a housing, at least one processor in the housing, a transparent display accessible to the processor and coupled to the housing, and at least first and second vibrators accessible to the processor and coupled to the housing. The first and second vibrators may be located at different positions with respect to the housing. The headset may also include storage accessible to the processor and coupled to the housing. The storage may include instructions executable by the processor to track a person as the person moves through an environment. The instructions may also be executable to, based on tracking the person, actuate one of the first and second vibrators to indicate a direction in which the person is to travel and/or to alert the person of an object that is within a threshold distance to the person.

Abstract: An approach is provided that detects when a digital camera has been set to a privacy mode that limits access to the digital camera. When in privacy mode, the digital camera receives a request to access the digital camera from an application. The approach determines whether the requesting application is allowed access to the digital camera while the digital camera is in the privacy mode. The requesting application is then allowed access to the digital camera in response to the determination being that the requesting application is allowed access to the digital camera. Likewise, the requesting application is inhibited access to the digital camera in response to the determination being that the requesting application is not allowed access to the digital camera.

Abstract: In one aspect, a device may include at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage may include instructions executable by the at least one processor to receive a request to book a meeting with a user via an electronic calendar. The electronic calendar may be associated with the user. The instructions may also be executable to, responsive to receipt of the request, determine a restriction associated with the electronic calendar and to respond to the request pursuant to the restriction.

Abstract: A method can include executing an application using a virtual reality headset; rendering a scene of the application to a display of the virtual reality headset; and, during rendering of the scene, rendering a graphic to the display where the graphic represents a power unit that is not physically coupled to the virtual reality headset.

Abstract: In one aspect, a first device includes at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage includes instructions that may be executable by the processor to receive input from a camera and identify a second device based on the input from the camera. The second device may include at least one speaker and at least one microphone. The instructions may also be executable to identify a current location of the second device within an environment based on the input from the camera and to identify a current location of an object within the environment that is different from the second device. The instructions may then be executable to provide a command to alter operation of the at least one speaker and/or the at least one microphone based on the current location of the second device and the current location of the object.

Abstract: In one aspect, a first device includes a processor, a microphone accessible to the processor, a speaker accessible to the processor, a display accessible to the processor, and storage accessible to the processor. The storage may include instructions executable by the processor to facilitate concurrent video conferencing for first and second video conferences and to receive user input selecting the first video conference. Based on the user input, the instructions may be executable to control the speaker to output audio for the first video conference at a greater volume level than audio for the second video conference and to transmit input from the microphone to a second device associated with a participant of the first video conference but not to a third device associated with a participant of the second video conference.

Abstract: In one aspect, a device may include at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage may include instructions executable by the at least one processor to receive a request to book a meeting with a user via an electronic calendar.

The instructions may also be executable to, responsive to receipt of the request, determine a restriction associated with the electronic calendar and to respond to the request pursuant to the restriction.

Abstract: In one aspect, a device includes at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage includes instructions executable by the at least one processor to receive a first data stream from a first conferencing service operated by a first conferencing service provider and to receive second data stream from a second conferencing service operated by a second conferencing service provider. The instructions are then executable to merge the first and second data streams.

Abstract: In one aspect a vehicle may include a motor, a drive train and chassis, a battery, a seat assembly including a seat in which people can sit, at least one processor, a camera accessible to the at least one processor, and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage may include instructions executable by the at least one processor to receive data pertaining to at least one characteristic of a person and to, based on the data, adjust at least one mechanism within the vehicle.
