Abstract: A multi-radar based detection device and detection method for a target object are provided. In the detection method, a first detection result corresponding to a first detection space and a second detection result corresponding to a second detection space are received. The first detection space entering a first status is determined in response to the first detection result indicating that the target object in the first detection space moves to an overlapping area between the first detection space and the second detection space. First information is output in response to determining that the first detection space enters the first status. The second detection space entering a second status is determined in response to the second detection result indicating that the target object not in the second detection space appears in the overlapping area. Second information is output in response to determining that the second detection space enters the second status.

Abstract: A mechanism for repeatedly adjusting communication with a subject head-mounted device based on a changing real time environment of the subject head-mounted device. By utilizing information about the environment context in which the head-mounted device exists, the optimal parameters may be more quickly determined and with less power. The environment context may be generated from sensors on the head-mounted device itself, or from a proximate sensor device. Thus, the communication properties (such as which protocol to use and what parameters) may be quickly determined in time to be useful to maintain a good connection despite movement of the head-mounted device, and despite the connection being dropped and reestablished. Furthermore, limited battery power is more judiciously utilized.

Abstract: A computing system configured to determine a time, a frequency, or a volume that time-critical data are to arrive and generate an uplink scheduling request based on the determined time, frequency, or volume. The uplink scheduling request is then sent to a base station, requesting an uplink grant. The computing system then receives the uplink grant from the base station over the radio interface. The uplink grant contains scheduling information associated with transmission of the time-critical data. In response to arrival of the time-critical data, the computing system then transmits the time-critical data over the radio interface based on the uplink grant with no or little latency.

Abstract: Multiple systems may determine neural-network output data and neural-network parameter data and may transmit the data therebetween to train and run the neural-network model to predict an event given input data. A data-provider system may perform a dot-product operation using encrypted data, and a secure-processing component may decrypt and process that data using an activation function to predict an event. Multiple secure-processing components may be used to perform a multiplication operation using homomorphic encrypted data.

Abstract: A computing system that is configured for a federated wallet with cryptographically secure signature delegation. The system may be configured to receive a session public key corresponding to a decentralized application and a user. The system may be further configured to receive an unsigned transaction of a blockchain, the unsigned transaction corresponding to the user. The system may be further configured to provide a symmetric encryption key to the user's device for encrypting the user's private signing key. The system may be further configured to determine, using the session public key, that the unsigned transaction is valid. Based on the validity of the unsigned transaction, the system may send the unsigned transaction to the user's device. The system may send the symmetric encryption key to the user's device to decrypt the private signing key. The system may be further configured to receive a signed transaction for submission to the blockchain.

Abstract: A method for human movement classification includes a plurality of radio frequency (RF) antennas to expose a body surface of a human user to an E-field, at least a part of the human user positioned within a near-field region relative to the RF antennas. The plurality of RF antennas are scanned to determine ground-relative changes in electrical conditions. A differential-scanning subset of RF antennas are selected, including two or more RF antennas for which the changes in electrical conditions exceed a threshold. For each RF antenna in the differential-scanning subset, a set of antenna-relative changes in electrical conditions are determined by comparing the RF antenna to one or more other RF antennas in the differential-scanning subset as a plurality of pairs. Based at least in part on the ground-relative changes in electrical conditions and the antenna-relative changes in electrical conditions, a movement performed by the human user is classified.

Abstract: A mechanism for adjusting the data rate of data to be transmitted over a data channel based on anticipated changes in the communication channel, rather than based on the current state of the communication channel. This is done by accessing real time environment context data obtained from sensor data generated by one or more sensors of a sensor device, and then predicting a future capacity of a communication channel with a subject head-mounted device based on the accessed real time environment context data. The appropriate data rate is then determined based on this predicted future channel capacity rather than the current channel capacity. The data rate of data that is initiated towards the communication channel is then adjusted based on the determined data rate in anticipation of the predicted future capacity of the communication channel.

Abstract: A first component determines encrypted data representing an event and encrypted threshold data corresponding to an outlier of the event. The first system may process the data using, for example, one or more composite integers, and may send the result to a second system. This second system may subtract the data to determine of the encrypted data is greater than, less than, or equal to the encrypted threshold. If so, the second system may determine that the encrypted data corresponds to an outlier of the data. The second system may send an indication of this determination to a third system.
