  • Enrollment with an automated assistant
    Patent number: 11238142
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for dialog-based enrollment of individual users for single- and/or multi-modal recognition by an automated assistant, as well as determining how to respond to a particular user's request based on the particular user being enrolled and/or recognized. Rather than requiring operation of a graphical user interface for individual enrollment, dialog-based enrollment enables users to enroll themselves (or others) by way of a human-to-computer dialog with the automated assistant.

  • Invoking automated assistant function(s) based on detected gesture and gaze
    Patent number: 11237630
    Abstract: Invoking one or more previously dormant functions of an automated assistant in response to detecting, based on processing of vision data from one or more vision components: (1) a particular gesture (e.g., of one or more “invocation gestures”) of a user; and/or (2) detecting that a gaze of the user is directed at an assistant device that provides an automated assistant interface (graphical and/or audible) of the automated assistant. For example, the previously dormant function(s) can be invoked in response to detecting the particular gesture, detecting that the gaze of the user is directed at an assistant device for at least a threshold amount of time, and optionally that the particular gesture and the directed gaze of the user co-occur or occur within a threshold temporal proximity of one another.

  • Assigning priority for an automated assistant according to a dynamic user queue and/or multi-modality presence detection
    Patent number: 11240560
    Abstract: Implementations relate to an automated assistant that provides and manages output from one or more elements of output hardware of a computing device. The automated assistant manages dynamic adjustment of access permissions to the computing device according to, for example, a detected presence of one or more users. An active-user queue can be established each time a unique user enters a viewing window of a camera of the computing device when, up to that point, no user was considered active. Multiple image frames can be captured via the camera and processed to determine whether an initial user remains in the viewing window and/or whether another user has entered the viewing window. The initial user can be considered active as long as they are exclusively detected in the viewing window. Restricted content associated with the user may be rendered by the computing device whilst the user is active.

  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REDACTION OF SCREENS
    Publication number: 20210409641
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods redact one or more light-emitting screens in data recorded on a recording device. The redaction may include receiving recorded data comprising a plurality of pixel values. The redaction may include detecting one or more light-emitting screens in the received image. The redaction may include redacting a subset of the pixel values from the recorded associated with the one or more detected light-emitting screens. The redaction may be commonly applied to multiple frames of recorded data through the use of a unique identifier assigned to a same detected light-emitting screen. A same light-emitting screen may be tracked across multiple non-sequential or sequential frames and assigned a same unique identifier.
