Abstract: A system, device and method for nail care is provided. The nail care system includes a shaping system, a polish removal system and/or a cuticle management system; a vision system; a nail polish application system; and a mobility system. The nail system may further include an accelerated drying system, a hand massage system, a nail identification/diagnosis/estimation of conditions system, an enclosure, a hand/foot rest system, a computer software system, a computer hardware system, a cartridge/pod system, and a multi-tool system. Related apparatuses, techniques and articles are also described.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for multi-device object tracking and localization are described. A device may transmit a request message associated with a target object to a set of devices within a target area. The request message may include an image of the target object, a feature of the target object, or at least a portion of a trained model associated with the target object. Subsequently, the device may receive response messages from the set of devices based on the request message. The response messages may include a portion of a captured image including the target object, location information of the devices, a pose of the devices, or temporal information of the target object detected within the target area by the devices. In some examples, the device may determine positional information with respect to the target object based on the one or more response messages.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for responding to congestion-sensitive preemptive data download requests in a V2X network. An example method for downloading data on a mobile device includes determining an estimated time of arrival at a station based at least in part on almanac information, generating a data download request based at least in part on the estimated time of arrival at the station, transmitting the data download request, and receiving one or more data packets from the station based on the data download request.

Abstract: Embodiments of apparatus, computer program product, and method for providing virtual buttons are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of providing virtual buttons in a device includes detecting a grip around a perimeter of the device, where the perimeter of the device includes one or more ultrasonic sensors; determining one or more locations of one or more fingers of a user using data collected by the one or more ultrasonic sensors; and providing one or more virtual buttons around the perimeter of the device based on the one or more locations of the one or more fingers of the user.

Abstract: An apparatus may include a fingerprint sensor system and a control system. The control system may be configured for receiving fingerprint sensor data from the fingerprint sensor system and for extracting fingerprint data from the fingerprint sensor data. The fingerprint data may correspond to fingerprints of multiple digits of a user's hand. The control system may be configured for providing a progressive enrollment process for the fingerprint data. The progressive enrollment process may involve storing at least some of the fingerprint data and augmenting stored fingerprint data as the user continues to use the apparatus. The progressive enrollment process may involve processing first fingerprint data corresponding to a first digit of the user's hand during a processing time for second fingerprint data corresponding to a second digit of the user's hand. At least a portion of the progressive enrollment process may be performed without user prompts.
