  • Patent number: 10862693
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to meeting passcodes. In an example, meeting passcodes can employ a meeting hub including an antenna and a controller coupled to the antenna to wirelessly receive, via the antenna, information including a first meeting passcode from a meeting device, generate a second meeting passcode in response to receipt of the first meeting passcode, cause the second meeting passcode to be sent to a registered user of meeting device, and admit the meeting device to a meeting using the second meeting passcode.

  • Patent number: 10721005
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to signal strength based printings. In an example, signal strength based printings can employ a personal computing device including a network adapter coupled to a computer network, an antenna to receive a wireless signal from a mobile electronic device, a processor to compare a signal strength indication (RSSI) value of the received wireless signal to a RSSI threshold value, and send, via the network adapter, a printable file to a printer based on the comparison of the RSSI value to the RSSI threshold value.

  • Patent number: 10318750
    Abstract: An electronic device has a lower power state in which power to a storage device is disabled. Predetermined information stored in a memory is useable to unlock the storage device during a procedure to transition the electronic device from the lower power state to a higher power state. The predetermined information is different from a credential for use in unlocking the storage device.

  • Patent number: 9990255
    Abstract: A first non-volatile memory stores a redundant copy of system data that relates to a configuration of at least one physical component of a system, where the first non-volatile memory is accessible by a controller in the system and inaccessible to a processor in the system. It is determined whether system data in a second non-volatile memory accessible by the processor is compromised. In response to determining that the system data in the second non-volatile memory is compromised, the compromised system data in the second non-volatile memory is repaired.
