Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, a system may enable the user to selectively either make computer generated selections without game play or to make menu selections in a more limited way in some embodiments in association with game play. Thus if the user selects game play, the user would be provided with at least two game options that implement menu selection tasks. For example the game play may allow the users to use a game to select within a group of menu options or to select a user who then gets the right to make a menu selection as another example.

Abstract: A processing system uses optical character recognition (OCR) to provide augmented reality (AR). The processing system automatically determines, based on video of a scene, whether the scene includes a predetermined AR target. In response to determining that the scene includes the AR target, the processing system automatically retrieves an OCR zone definition associated with the AR target. The OCR zone definition identifies an OCR zone. The processing system automatically uses OCR to extract text from the OCR zone. The processing system uses results of the OCR to obtain AR content which corresponds to the text from the OCR zone. The processing system automatically causes that AR content to be presented in conjunction with the scene. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A device may be configured to sense its own orientation with respect to a coordinate system, and to also sense the orientation of a user's head with respect to the device. The device may then determine whether the device orientation has changed with respect to the coordinate system and/or whether the head orientation has changed with respect to the device. Audio signal generation in the device may then be controlled based on the determination. For example, the position of a simulated sound source may be changed in a 3-D audio field based on determined changes in device and/or head orientation. The audio signal may then be transmitted from the device to an apparatus configured to generate sound based on the audio signal (e.g., headphones).

Abstract: A communication station is for use with a medical device (such as an infusion pump) and a processing device (such as a computer). The communication station includes a housing, a medical device interface coupled to the housing, a processing device interface coupled to the housing and a processor coupled to the housing. The device interface interfaces with the medical device, and the processing device interface interfaces with the processing device. The processor provides a communication path between the medical device and the processing device such that programming and instructions may be communicated from the processing device to the medical device and data may be transferred from the medical device to the processing device. The communication station may be combined with a system that is capable of generating reports either locally or remotely. In addition, the medical device interface may be a cradle that is configurable to attach to different shaped medical devices.

Abstract: Techniques for opportunistic resource sharing between mobile devices are described. A method comprises identifying a set of homogeneous device resources implemented by multiple devices based in part on resource configuration information received by a wireless transceiver, selecting a shared homogeneous device resource of one of the multiple devices to share between the multiple devices, and sending shared configuration information to identify the shared homogeneous device resource and a share role for each of the multiple devices. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
