Abstract: Technologies are described herein that allow a user to wake up a computing device operating in a low-power state and for the user to be verified by speaking a single wake phrase. Wake phrase recognition is performed by a low-power engine. In some embodiments, the low-power engine may also perform speaker verification. In other embodiments, the mobile device wakes up after a wake phrase is recognized and a component other than the low-power engine performs speaker verification on a portion of the audio input comprising the wake phrase. More than one wake phrases may be associated with a particular user, and separate users may be associated with different wake phrases. Different wake phrases may cause the device transition from a low-power state to various active states.

The image sensor is to capture the image data in an orientation format irrespective of an orientation of the computing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for real-time emergency vehicle authentication at traffic signal and tollgates are disclosed. In certain example embodiments, a dispatch server can provide identifying credentials and time-bounded intersection tickets (TBIT) to traffic signals and tollgates for conducting authentication of emergency vehicles. The emergency vehicles can transmit a traffic light control message requesting expedited access through a traffic signal or tollgate. The traffic signal or tollgate can decrypt the message using the TBIT. It can further determine if the identifying credential received from the emergency vehicle is authorized for expedited access and if the message was received within a required time period. In response, the traffic signal or tollgate can determine its current signal or gate position and determine if a change needs to be made to provide expedited access to the emergency vehicle.
