  • Patent number: 11445346
    Abstract: A communication system may include a plurality of geographically proximate nodes that communicate via one or more range-limited wireless technologies such as BLUETOOTH® low energy (BLE). An origin node may generate and communicate a first message responsive to detecting an event occurrence. The message may include an identifier associated with the origin node, data indicative of the event occurrence, a hop count, a maximum hop count, and a number of designated recipient nodes within the communication system. A first designated recipient node may, upon receiving the first message, attempt to confirm the event occurrence included in the first message. Upon confirming the event occurrence, the first designated recipient node may communicate a notification to an external third party. If unable to confirm the event occurrence, the first designated recipient node may generate and communicate a second message to a second designated recipient node included in the first message.

  • Publication number: 20200156663
    Abstract: Apparatus, method and computer readable medium associated with autonomous/semi-autonomous driving (AD/Semi-AD) are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus may comprise an accessibility engine disposed in an AD/semi-AD vehicle to control accessibility elements of the vehicle. The accessibility engine may be configured to receive sensor data from a plurality of sensors disposed in the vehicle, and determine a specific spot for the vehicle to stop at a destination for a passenger or driver to ingress or egress the vehicle, based at least in part on the sensor data and a model of the vehicle that includes information about accessibility elements of the vehicle, including determination of accessibility needs of the passenger or driver based at least in part on at least some of the sensor data. Other embodiments may be disclosed or claimed.

  • Patent number: 10310617
    Abstract: In embodiments, apparatuses, methods and storage media (transitory and non-transitory) are described that receive sensor data from one or more sensor devices that depict a user gesture in three dimensional space, determine a flight path based at least in part on the sensor data, and store the flight path in memory for use to control operation of a drone. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

  • Patent number: 10075835
    Abstract: One or more sensors gather data, one or more processors analyze the data, and one or more indicators notify a user if the data represent an event that requires a response. One or more of the sensors and/or the indicators is a wearable device for wireless communication. Optionally, other components may be vehicle-mounted or deployed on-site. The components form an ad-hoc network enabling users to keep track of each other in challenging environments where traditional communication may be impossible, unreliable, or inadvisable. The sensors, processors, and indicators may be linked and activated manually or they may be linked and activated automatically when they come within a threshold proximity or when a user does a triggering action, such as exiting a vehicle. The processors distinguish extremely urgent events requiring an immediate response from less-urgent events that can wait longer for response, routing and timing the responses accordingly.
