Abstract: An extended-reality device worn by a user may be configured to automatically perform the authentication necessary to unlock a user's device for use. The authentication may include using sensors on the extended-reality device to verify a user's identity. The authentication may further include capturing an image of the user's environment to detect a candidate device to be unlocked. After detecting the candidate device, the extended reality device may be configured to broadcast a signal to cause the candidate device to display a visual code if the candidate device is registered to the user. The extended-reality device may then capture one or more images of the visual code to determine an identity of the device. Using this identity, the extended reality device may then be configured to automatically unlock the device for use.

Abstract: A wearable device can include a first sensor configured to sense first data, a second sensor configured to sense second data, an energy utilization of the first sensor being less than an energy utilization of the second sensor, and a processor configured to perform a comparison between the first data and a threshold value, if the comparison passes the threshold value, cause the second sensor to sense the second data and process the second data, and if the comparison fails the threshold value, cause the second sensor not to sense the second data.

Abstract: A device (100) includes a display (110) itself including pixel groups. A bottom and sides of each of the pixel groups are covered with non-reflective material. The pixel groups are electrically coupled together with transparent conductive interconnections. A camera (122) is located beneath the display and the camera is configured to sense light that passes through the display.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a camera, a primary display panel including a pixel array and an aperture adjacent the pixel array, an auxiliary display, and an optical assembly including a reflecting optical element and an actuator coupled to the reflecting optical element. The actuator is configured to switch the reflecting optical element between a first arrangement and a second arrangement. The first arrangement defines an optical path from the aperture to the camera and the second arrangement defines an optical path from the aperture to the auxiliary display.

Abstract: An example method includes receiving, by a mobile computing device, electrical power via a wireless charging link between the mobile computing device and a wireless charging device; and responsive to an activation state of a camera of the mobile computing device, selectively adjusting, by the mobile computing device, one or more parameters of the wireless charging link, wherein wireless charging via the wireless charging link with the adjusted one or more parameters generates less noise in images captured by the camera while the mobile computing device receives electrical power via the wireless charging link than wireless charging with unadjusted one or more parameters.
