  • Publication number: 20260186633
    Abstract: Systems and methods for transitioning between power modes of a wearable device are disclosed. An example method includes, while a user is wearing the head-wearable device, obtaining first real-world data of the user's surroundings captured while the head-wearable device is operating in a low-power mode. The method includes, in accordance with a determination, based on the first real-world data, that an AI agent invocation trigger is satisfied, obtaining second real-world data of the user's surroundings captured while the head-wearable device is operating in a high-power mode. The method includes, in accordance with a determination, based on the second real-world data, that AI assistance criteria are satisfied causing the AI agent to generate assistive operations, causing the head-wearable device to present the assistive operations, and in response to user selection of an assistive operation of the assistive operations, causing the AI agent to perform the assistive operation.

  • Publication number: 20260186634
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and distributing notes using artificially intelligence are disclosed. An example method includes obtaining an indication that a user wearing a head-wearable device is participating in an information sharing event and, in response to the indication, causing an imaging device to capture image data and a microphone to capture audio data. The method includes providing the image data and the audio data to an artificial intelligence (AI) agent, receiving, based on the image data and the audio data provided to the AI agent, AI-generated notes including note items. The note items include an audio recording of information shared during the information sharing event, a transcription of information shared during the information sharing event, a summary of the information sharing event, representations of the image data captured during the information sharing event, and/or action items determined based on the information shared during the information sharing event.

  • Patent number: 12549566
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention relate to a cyber security system that may enable an end user to communicate with a cyber security appliance to identify cyber threats across the client system. The system can include one or more host devices each having a user interface and an endpoint agent for facilitating bi-directional communication between the user and a cyber security appliance. The endpoint agent may include a communication facilitation module including a user interaction module configured to communicate with the user interface and a helper module configured to communicate with the cyber security appliance. The endpoint agent is configured to enable the bi-directional communication between the user interface and the cyber security appliance on receiving a query associated with identified unusual behavior.

  • Publication number: 20260010236
    Abstract: One or more instructions executed by a wrist-wearable device and/or a head-wearable device is described herein. Instructions that, when executed by a wrist-wearable device and/or a head- wearable device worn by a user, cause the wrist-wearable device and/or the head-wearable device to perform or cause performance of one or more actions. The instructions further include capturing sensor data using sensors, initiating an assistant associated with the head-wearable device and/or wrist-wearable device. The instructions further include, in accordance with a determination that the hand gesture is no longer maintained, ceasing to capture sensor data via the sensors, and providing, by the assistant, a response to the user based on the sensor data. The response includes a characterization of a scene within the sensor data and a characterization of one or more objects within the sensor data.

  • Publication number: 20240319784
    Abstract: Systems and methods for smart message delivery for message handoff between communication devices and artificial reality systems are provided. In various examples, a communication device or HMD may receive a message initiating a detection of motion(s) and/or position(s) of the communication device and/or the HMD associated with a user with respect to each other. The communication device and/or the HMD may determine a movement level associated with each other, and based on the movement level relative to a predetermined threshold a message delivery process may be determined. If the predetermined threshold is not met, the message may be output to a user via audio and if the predetermined threshold is met, text associated with the message may be presented by the communication device for the user to read.

  • Publication number: 20240297883
    Abstract: A cyber security system is adapted to generate a cloud architecture assembled from a plurality of cloud resources within a customer cloud environment based on metadata associated with the plurality of cloud resources. The cyber security system features at least a plurality of components. The first component identifies the plurality of cloud resources and collects metadata associated with each of the plurality of cloud resources including a first cloud resource for storage within a storage subsystem. The second component determines how at least the first cloud resource of the plurality of cloud resources is behaving within the customer cloud environment based on analytics conducted on log data and network traffic data associated with the first cloud resource. The third component conducts analytics on information associated with the plurality of cloud resources in order to detect compliance or misconfiguration of the plurality of cloud resources forming the cloud architecture.

  • Publication number: 20240233233
    Abstract: A method includes animating head movements of an avatar representing the wearer of augmented-reality glasses, based on first data indicating movements a wearer's head during a period in which the wearer of the augmented-reality glasses is recording an audio message using spoken words, where the first data was obtained by an inertial-measurement unit (IMU) of the augmented-reality glasses. The method includes animating mouth movements of the avatar representing the user, based on second data indicating the spoken words of the user during the period of time, where the second data was obtained by a microphone of the augmented-reality glasses. And the method includes providing an animated version of the avatar having the head movements and the mouth movements to a device other than the augmented-reality glasses for presentation in conjunction with playback of an electronic communication at the device other than the augmented-reality glasses.

  • Publication number: 20050019509
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an emulsion polymer that is multi-valent ion stable. The emulsion polymer does not readily precipitate in an environment containing high levels of multi-valent ions, and in particular calcium ions. The polymer emulsion is particularly useful in the preparation of natural and synthetic rubber articles, and especially as a coating on the inner surface of a rubber glove.
