  • Patent number: 10320723
    Abstract: Configurations for providing a widget that displays participants involved in the conversation thread and provides different graphical elements (e.g., buttons) to initiate one click actions to start a group chat, create a meeting on each participant's calendar, or start a new conversation thread. In the case of the group chat, the subject technology can include the contents of the group chat session as an additional electronic message in the conversation thread. In one example, the widget is implemented as a floating toolbar that can be positioned in the user interface while in the conversation thread view.

  • Patent number: 9799063
    Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods are disclosed for accurately identifying one or more mobile thing motion activity (MTMAs; e.g., stationary, walking, running, biking, driving, etc.) associated with a mobile thing (MT; e.g., a person) using sensor data from one or more sensors associated with a wireless communication device (WCD) transported by the MT and for facilitating purchase of a good or service based at least in part upon the one or more MTMAs and one or more predefined user preferences. The sensor data from the one or more sensors (e.g., accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, etc.) is designed to produce data indicative of physical movement of the WCD in three dimensions of a three dimensional (3D) space. In some embodiments, the one or more MTMAs are a plurality of instances of the same MTMA (e.g., a plurality of running sessions) and the purchase of the good or service (e.g., new running shoes) is initiated when a total time duration or total travel distance exceeds a predefined threshold (e.g.

  • Publication number: 20160174044
    Abstract: Various embodiments of a wireless communication device (WCD) that can be transported by a user are provided. One embodiment comprises a user interface that enables the WCD to receive inputs from the user and to provide outputs to the user. A sensor associated with the WCD produces sensor data. The sensor data indicative of physical movement of the WCD in three dimensional space. Computer program code is executed on the WCD and enables detection of a mobile thing motion activity (MTMA) associated with the user that is transporting the WCD based at least in part upon the sensor data. The code identifies computer programs and/or sensors to activate or deactivate based at least in part upon the detected MTMA. In some embodiments, the program and sensor decisions can be made based upon more than one detected MTMA, which is the same or different.

The code identifies an action to initiate based at least in part upon the detected MTMA, communicates a message to the user that requests confirmation that the action should be initiated, and initiates the action when the user provides the confirmation that the action should be initiated.

  • Patent number: 9141974
    Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods are disclosed for accurately identifying a mobile thing (MT), a mobile thing motion activity (MTMA) associated with the MT, or both, using sensor data from one or more sensors, such as an accelerometer, gyroscope, etc., associated with a wireless communication device (WCD) transported by the MT, so as to enable or initiate a further one or more intelligent MT-identity-based and/or MTMA-based actions.

  • Patent number: 9049558
    Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods are disclosed for accurately identifying a moving thing motion activity (MTMA) associated with a mobile thing (MT) using sensor data from one or more sensors associated with a wireless communication device (WCD) transported by the MT so as to enable or initiate a further one or more activity based actions. One such method, among others, comprises: (a) receiving first and second data from one or more sensors (e.g., accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, etc.) associated with a wireless communication device (WCD) transported by a mobile thing (MT), the first and second data indicative of movement of the WCD; (b) determining reference data that defines a reference framework from the first data; (c) normalizing the second data with the reference data so that the second data can be analyzed in the reference framework; and (d) identifying an MTMA associated with the MT based upon the normalized second data.

  • Patent number: 8452273
    Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods are disclosed for accurately identifying a moving thing motion activity (MTMA) associated with a mobile thing (MT) using only accelerometer data from a wireless communication device (WCD) transported by the MT so as to enable or initiate a further one or more activity based actions. One such method, among others, comprises: (a) receiving first and second data from an accelerometer associated with a wireless communication device (WCD) transported by a mobile thing (MT), the first and second data indicative of acceleration of the WCD; (b) determining reference data that defines a reference framework in two dimensions (2D) of space from the first data; (c) normalizing the second data with the reference data so that the second data can be analyzed in the 2D space; and (d) identifying a mobile thing motion activity (MTMA) associated with the MT based upon the normalized second data.
