  • Patent number: 11928386
    Abstract: An example computing device includes a plurality of interfaces to connect to a plurality of audio peripheral devices, a communications interface to establish a network connection, and a processor interconnected with the plurality of interfaces and the communications interface. The processor is to determine a location of the computing device based on the network connection. The processor sets an audio peripheral device from the plurality of the audio peripheral devices as a default audio peripheral device based on the location. The processor communicates an audio signal through the default audio peripheral device.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11755739
    Abstract: An example of a first computing device may include firmware, a controller, and a processor. The processor may be to generate a trust state message, to be sent to the controller, indicating the firmware of the first computing device is operating a trusted environment and utilize the firmware to validate an update within the trusted environment. The controller may be to assert, responsive to receiving the trust state message, a trust state signal to a second computing device indicating the firmware of the first computing device is operating the trusted environment The assertion of the trust state signal may be to enable the second computing device to install the validated update.

  • Publication number: 20200125140
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to accessibility of components. In an example, the system may include a processing resource and a memory resource storing readable instructions to cause the processing resource to determine, in response to a sensor value, a state of a computing device that includes a plurality of components, determine, in response to the state of the computing device, an accessibility of the plurality of components, select a component from the plurality of components based on the accessibility of the plurality of components, and alter an electrical state of the selected component that is utilized to identify a user.
