Abstract: An electronic device receives depth sensor data that includes depths sensed in multiple zones in the field of view of a depth sensor. The device determines whether a user is in front of the device based on the depth sensor data. If the user is determined to be present, then the device causes a display to enter an operational mode. Otherwise, the device causes the display to enter a standby mode. The device may also determine whether the user's attention is on the device by determining whether the depth sensor data indicates that the user is facing the device. If so, the device causes the display to enter the operational mode. Otherwise, the device causes the display to enter a power saving mode. The device may use a machine learning algorithm to determine whether the depth sensor data indicates that the user is present and/or facing the device.

Abstract: Technologies for protecting virtual machine memory of a compute device include a virtual machine (VM) instantiated on the compute device, a virtual machine monitor (VMM) established on the compute device to control operation of the VM, a secured memory, and a memory manager. The memory manager receives a memory access request that includes a virtual linear address (LA) from the VM and performs a translation of the LA to a translated host physical address (HPA) of the compute device using one or more page tables associated with the VM and VMM. The memory manager determines whether a secured translation mapping of LA-to-HPA that corresponds to the LA is locked. If the mapping is locked, the memory manager verifies the translation based on a comparison of the translated HPA to a HPA translated using the secured translation mapping and, if verified, performs the memory access request using the translated HPA.

Abstract: Technologies for transferring offloading or on-loading data or tasks between a processor and a coprocessor include a computing device having a processor and a sensor hub that includes a coprocessor. The coprocessor receives sensor data associated with one or more sensors and detects events associated with the sensor data. The coprocessor determines frequency, resource usage cost, and power state transition cost for the events. In response to an offloaded task request from the processor, the coprocessor determines an aggregate load value based on the frequency, resource usage cost, and power state transition cost, and determines whether to accept the offloaded task request based on the aggregate load value. The aggregate load value may be determined as an exponential moving average. The coprocessor may determine whether to accept the offloaded task request based on a principal component analysis of the events. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating suggestions based on group criteria. A device may act as a proxy for a group and scan information from other devices in the group. The proxy device may then transmit the scanned information to a remote resource. The remote resource may obtain preference information based on profile information, for devices that are determined to be registered with a service, and based on inquiry responses for unregistered devices. The preference information may be compiled into group criteria that may be employed in making one or more suggestions to the group. If the group selects one of the suggestions then the remote resource may make arrangements based on the selection. Otherwise, additional suggestions may be provided to the group. The remote resource may also monitor the group and continue to make suggestions accordingly.
