Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that determine an attentive state of a user based on physiological data associated with a physiological response of the user to an auditory stimulus. For example, an example process may include selecting an auditory stimulus based on a characteristic of an environment, presenting the auditory stimulus to a user, obtaining, using a sensor, first physiological data associated with a physiological response of the user to the auditory stimulus, and assessing an attentive state of the user based on the physiological response of the user to the auditory stimulus.

An automated replacement device moves in a right-left direction along a front surface of production line including multiple machines. The automated replacement device moves to a front side of an instructed machine among the multiple machines to perform an automated replacement operation on the machine. A periphery monitoring device monitors a safety area set in a periphery of the automated replacement device to stop an operation of the automated replacement device in an emergency manner when a person or an obstacle is detected in the safety area and alarm device sounds an alarm to notify that the automated replacement device is moving, in which the periphery monitoring device is switched such that a range of the safety area during the movement of the automated replacement device is smaller than a range of the safety area during the automated replacement operation.

A computing device may receive an indication of an audio signal captured by a microphone, wherein the audio signal includes voice input. The computing device may determine that the voice input in the audio signal is from an authorized user of the computing device and includes a trigger phrase associated with a request to trigger device finder functionality based at least in part on comparing the voice input with data provided by the authorized user of the computing device. The computing device may, in response to determining that the voice input in the audio signal is from the authorized user of the computing device and includes the trigger phrase associated with the request to trigger device finder functionality, cause a speaker of the computing device to audibly output the alert sound to assist the authorized user to locate the computing device.

An electronic relative directional indicator includes a microcontroller in electronic communication with an electronic compass, an electronic motion-detecting module and at least one light source that is controllably illuminable. A battery life of the electronic relative directional indicator is managed by monitoring the electronic motion-detecting module for motion within pre-defined time periods and reducing power to electronic components accordingly. The electronic relative directional indicator can be placed on the face shield portion of a self-contained breathing apparatus face mask to provide a constant source of orientation for firefighters in reduced- or zero-visibility environments.

Real time cognitive reasoning using a circuit with varying confidence level alerts including receiving a first set of data results and a second set of data results; transferring a first unit of charge from a first charge capacitor on the A-B circuit to a collection capacitor on the A-B circuit for each of the first set of data results that indicates a positive data point; transferring a second unit of charge from a second charge capacitor to the collection capacitor for each of the second set of data results that indicates a positive data point; and triggering a first sense amp on the A-B circuit if the charge on the collection capacitor exceeds a first charge threshold, indicating that the positive data points in the first set of data results is greater than the positive data points in the second set of data results to a first statistical significance with a first confidence level.

An electronic device and a method for controlling the electronic device, the method including receiving an input of a command to reproduce music contents, determining audio characteristics information on the music contents and situation information on an environment where the music contents are being reproduced; and displaying a visualization effect of visualizing the music contents using the audio characteristics information and the situation information, and reproducing the music contents.

A protection system for a power tool is disclosed having a battery pack. The batter pack may be used with the power tool to supply an electrical consumer of the power tool with electrical energy, as well as hearing protection for a user of the power tool. The battery pack has a first control circuit, which is set up to, directly or indirectly, provide information relating to a value of an operating parameter of the power tool to a second control circuit of a hearing protector. The hearing protector has an audio output device, and the second control circuit is set up for this purpose, the audio output device uses the transmitted information to control generation of an audible warning output.
