Abstract: An aspect provides a method, including: receiving, from a wireless display device, one or more beacons using a receiver of an information handling device; using, at the information handling device, the one or more beacons to determine one or more wireless display device characteristics; initiating, at the information handling device, one of a plurality of wireless connection protocols determined based on the one or more wireless display device characteristics; establishing, using a communication module of the information handling device, a wireless connection with the wireless display device; and transmitting, with the communication module of the information handling device, data for display to the wireless display device. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: A device includes a transceiver, a microphone, a sensor, and a controller coupled to receive signals from the sensor and to place the device into a mute mode when the signals from the sensor are indicative of a user action to reduce transmission of the user's voice.

Abstract: For predicting web pages, a calculation module predicts a web page from a current context and displays the predicted web page.

Abstract: An aspect provides a method, including: receiving, at a low power wireless communication subsystem of an information handling device, a beacon from a wirelessly connectable device; determining, with the low power wireless communication subsystem, if the received beacon warrants executing a communication protocol; in response to determining the received beacon warrants executing a communication protocol, powering on a main system component and a higher power wireless communication subsystem; and establishing a wireless connection between the higher power wireless communication subsystem and the wirelessly connectable device. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: For modifying a function based on user proximity, a proximity module determines a distance between an electronic device and a transported device in wireless communication with the electronic device. The proximity module further modifies a function of the electronic device if the distance is within the specified range.

Abstract: A method includes sensing a local environmental condition, receiving an electronic communication message, sensing a local microphone signal level associated with the communication message, and issuing a notification if the local microphone signal level exceeds a threshold associated with the local environmental condition. In such a method, an electronic communication may be a telephone call, a video call, a text message, a message communicated via a short message service, a message communicated via a multimedia message service or other type of message. Various other apparatuses, systems, methods, etc., are also disclosed.
