Abstract: Computing devices and methods for associating a semantic identifier with an object are disclosed. In one example, a three-dimensional model of an environment comprising the object is generated. Image data of the environment is sent to a user computing device for display by the user computing device. User input comprising position data of the object and the semantic identifier is received. The position data is mapped to a three-dimensional location in the three-dimensional model at which the object is located. Based at least on mapping the position data to the three-dimensional location of the object, the semantic identifier is associated with the object.

Abstract: Registration of a person with an intelligent assistant computer includes obtaining one or more image frames captured via one or more cameras that depict an initially unregistered person. Facial recognition data for the initially unregistered person is extracted from the one or more image frames. A spoken command to register the initially unregistered person is received via one or more microphones. Upon determining that the spoken command originated from the registered person having the pre-established registration privilege, the initially unregistered person is registered as a newly registered person by associating one or more additional privileges with the facial recognition data in a person profile for the newly registered person.

Abstract: A method to execute computer-actionable directives conveyed in human speech comprises: receiving audio data recording speech from one or more speakers; converting the audio data into a linguistic representation of the recorded speech; detecting a target corresponding to the linguistic representation; committing to the data structure language data associated with the detected target and based on the linguistic representation; parsing the data structure to identify one or more of the computer-actionable directives; and submitting the one or more of the computer-actionable directives to the computer for processing.

Abstract: The present application allows two-way communication between a remote client and a mobile device, such as a mobile phone. User's can be informed of phone events in real time, regardless of their proximity to the mobile device. A two-way communication link allows a remote client to communicate back to the mobile device to leverage the capabilities of the mobile device. For example, a mobile device can be controlled remotely to send a text message. In this way, third parties receive a text message from the mobile device itself, even though it is not in the user's possession.
