Abstract: A system and method for providing a custom response to a voice command of a specific user. The method encompasses receiving, at a transceiver unit [102] from a user device, a custom voice response preference setting associated with the specific user. The method thereafter leads to receiving, at the transceiver unit [102] from a first target device, a voice command of the specific user. The method thereafter encompasses generating, by a processing unit [104], a custom response to the voice command of the specific user based at least on the custom voice response preference setting. Further, the method encompasses identifying, by an identification unit [106], a second target device from one or more devices present in vicinity of the specific user. Thereafter, the method comprises providing, by the processing unit [104], the generated custom response to the voice command of the specific user via the second target device.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and a method for transferring subscriber identifier attribute of label units (110) on replacement. The system includes one or more label units (110) attached to a corresponding object (106) from one or more objects in transit, a first label unit (110-1) replaced by a second label unit (110-2) when said first label unit (110-1) is damaged, wherein a subscriber identifier attribute of the first label unit (110-1) is transferred to the second label unit (110-2) after said replacement. The system includes a tracking system (102) that receives a second set of signals from the second label unit (110-2), updates a database (210) coupled to the tracking system (102) with the second set of unique identifier attributes of the second label unit (110-2), and tracks the objects (106) by receiving one or more tracking and monitoring data from the second label unit (110-2).

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system (100) and a method for contextual tracking of label units (110) and optimizing energy consumption thereof. The system (100) includes one or more label units (110) being attached to a corresponding object (106), each label unit (110) having one or more sensors (116) that collect one or more tracking data, and being powered by a corresponding power supply unit (118). A tracking system (102) receives the tracking data from each of the label units (110) via a first set of signals, and determines a state-of-charge value of the power supply unit (118) therewith. When the state-of-charge value is less than a transit duration value associated with the object (106), the tracking system (102) determines one or more contextual transit parameters, and transmits a second set of signals to the label units (110) to optimize energy consumption thereof based on the contextual transit parameters.

Abstract: A system and method for automatically controlling a mode on a set top box [100]. The method comprises identifying, from a set of pre-stored contextual information, a target pre-stored contextual information associated with an entity. The method further comprises identifying, a usage preference associated with the entity based on the target pre-stored contextual information. Thereafter the method leads to identifying, one of a presence and an absence of the entity in the vicinity of the set top box [100] based on the target pre-stored contextual information and a sensor data. The method thereafter comprises automatically controlling, the mode on the set top box [100] based on the usage preference associated with the entity and one of the presence and the absence of the entity in the vicinity of the set top box [100].

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for enabling screen-specific user interfacing with elements of viewable screens presented by an electronic device are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of identifying a character sequence representing a first input that is received while displaying a viewable screen having at least one selectable viewable element. The actions further include accessing an electronic file that provides a text representation of one or more of the at least one selectable viewable element. The actions further include comparing the character sequence to the text representation. The actions further include selecting, within the viewable screen, a selectable viewable element whose text representation matches the character sequence. The actions further include triggering any action linked to the selecting the selectable viewable element.

Abstract: A portable device (100) includes an orientation engine (118) and a display controller (106). The display controller displays a navigational view on a first display (102). Upon detecting a reorientation of the device (610), the display control displays a second navigational view (204). The second navigational view is related to the first navigational view by a relationship dictated by the direction of orientation change, and may be displayed on the first display or on a second display (104), depending on the manner of reorientation.

Abstract: Devices and methods for determining an optimal travel route from an origin to a destination for a first device are disclosed. In some embodiments, the method includes: determining an origin and destination for a travel objective and determining whether a user is on a phone call or predicted to be on a phone call during the travel objective using context information associated with the first device. When the user is on a phone call, the method determines a phone call duration using the context information associated with the first device and uses the phone call duration to determine an optimal travel route. When the user is predicted to be on a phone call and the phone call is predicted to be ongoing when a call drop point is encountered, the method determines a phone call duration using the context information associated with the first device, and uses the phone call duration to determine an optimal travel route.

Abstract: A method 900 includes: identifying 903, within an electronic device 100, a character sequence representing a first speech input that is received 902 while displaying a viewable screen having at least one selectable viewable element; accessing 904 a view hierarchy that provides a text representation of one or more of the at least one selectable viewable element; comparing 906 the character sequence to the text representation of each of the selectable elements associated with the viewable screen; and in response to detecting 908 a match of the character sequence with at least one text representation, a processor of the electronic device 100 (i) selecting 910, within the viewable screen, a corresponding selectable viewable element whose text representation matches the character sequence and (ii) triggering 918 any action linked to selecting the corresponding selectable viewable element.
