Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for robust radar-based gesture-recognition. A radar system detects radar-based gestures on behalf of application subscribers. A state machine transitions between multiple states based on inertial sensor data. A no-gating state enables the radar system to output radar-based gestures to application subscribers. The state machine also includes a soft-gating state that prevents the radar system from outputting the radar-based gestures to the application subscribers. A hard-gating state prevents the radar system from detecting radar-based gestures altogether. The techniques and systems enable the radar system to determine when not to perform gesture-recognition, enabling user equipment to automatically reconfigure the radar system to meet user demand. By so doing, the techniques conserve power, improve accuracy, or reduce latency relative to many common techniques and systems for radar-based gesture-recognition.

Abstract: This document describes techniques and systems for authentication management through IMU and radar. The techniques and systems use inertial sensor data from an inertial measurement unit (IMU) and/or radar data to manage authentication for a computing device. By so doing, the techniques conserve power, improve accuracy, or reduce latency relative to many common techniques and systems for computing-device authentication.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for robust radar-based gesture-recognition. A radar system (104) detects radar-based gestures on behalf of application subscribers. A state machine (2000) transitions between multiple states based on inertial sensor data. A no-gating state (2002) enables the radar system (104) to output radar-based gestures to application subscribers. The state machine (2000) also includes a soft-gating state (2004) that prevents the radar system (104) from outputting the radar-based gestures to the application subscribers. A hard-gating state (2006) prevents the radar system (104) from detecting radar-based gestures altogether. The techniques and systems enable the radar system (104) to determine when not to perform gesture-recognition, enabling user equipment (102) to automatically reconfigure the radar system (104) to meet user demand.

Abstract: This document describes techniques and systems for reducing a state based on sensor data from an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and radar. The techniques and systems use inertial sensor data from an IMU as well as radar data to reduce states of a user equipment, such as power, access, and information states. These states represent power used, an amount of access permitted, or an amount of information provided by the user equipment. The techniques manage the user equipment's states to correspond to a user's engagement with the user equipment, which can save power, reduce unwarranted access, and reduce an amount of information provided when the user is not engaged with the user equipment, thereby protecting the user's privacy.

Abstract: This document describes techniques and systems for maintaining an authenticated state based radar data from a radar system, and in some cases, on sensor data from an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). The techniques and systems use radar data to determine, after an indication that the user has potentially disengaged with the user equipment, to determine whether or not the user is passively engaged with the user equipment. Responsive to determining that the user is passively engaged, the techniques and systems maintain the authenticated state. By maintaining this authenticated state, the techniques manage the user equipment's state to correspond to a user's engagement with the user equipment, which can save power and improve a user's experience.
