REMOTE USER INTERFACE
Target electronic devices can be remotely controlled using a personal electronic device are disclosed. The personal electronic device can identify target devices that are responsive to remote control. The personal electronic device displays graphical user interface objects that, when selected, cause the personal electronic device to instruct the target electronic device to perform an operation.
Electronic device and method for communication connection based on low energy in electronic device
According to an embodiment, an electronic device may include a Bluetooth communication circuit and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to: perform a first communication connection based on a first Bluetooth communication with a first audio electronic device having a first Bluetooth address by using the Bluetooth communication circuit, receive, from a second audio electronic device having the first Bluetooth address, a second communication connection request based on the first Bluetooth communication while performing the first communication connection, transmit, to the second audio electronic device, a second communication connection request response signal including rejection information for the received second communication connection request by using the Bluetooth communication circuit due to the first communication connection, and transmit, to the first audio electronic device, a message related to the rejection information for the second communication connection request through the first communication connection. Other embodiments are possible.
Streaming binaural audio from a cloud spatial audio processing system to a mobile station for playback on a personal audio delivery device
Spatial audio is received from an audio server over a first communication link. The spatial audio is converted by a cloud spatial audio processing system into binaural audio. The binauralized audio is streamed from the cloud spatial audio processing system to a mobile station over a second communication link to cause the mobile station to play the binaural audio on the personal audio delivery device.
RESUMING PLAYBACK ON MULTIPLE STREAMING DEVICES
Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for transferring streaming media playback between streaming media devices. In an example embodiment, a user may be streaming content using a first media device. The user may then send a command to the first media device to transfer the streaming content to a second media device. The first media device may identify the second media device as being on a common network and transmit a wake command to the second media device as well as media playback state information indicating a playback position to resume playback. In some embodiments, the first media device may download the media playback state information onto a mobile device. The mobile device may then provide the media playback state information to the second media device to resume playback at the first media device's playback position.
USER INTERFACE-BASED RESTRICTION ON CONTENT ACCESS
The subject disclosure provides systems and methods for providing access to media content from a server based on a user interface of a client device through which the access is requested. A user may access certain media content, such as a song, album, playlist, a radio station, etc., only if a request for that content is initiated via a specific user interface, and when the user is a subscriber to a reduced subscription tier to a service of the server. To restrict the access in this way, an interface-specific token is generated at a server for each media content. The interface-specific token is received by a user device and is used for further access to the media content from the server.

Audio/Video Wearable Computer System with Integrated Projector
A head mounted system can include a video camera that is configured to provide image data. A wireless interface circuit can be configured to receive augmentation data from a remote server. A processor circuit can be coupled to the video camera, where the processor circuit can be configured to register the image data with the augmentation data and combine the image data with the augmentation data to provide augmented image data. A projector circuit, coupled to the processor circuit, the projector circuit can be configured to project the augmented image data from the head mounted system onto a surface.
Terminal device, and DSD audio playback circuit and method
A terminal device includes a processor, a direct stream digital (DSD) audio playback circuit, and a headset jack. The processor is connected to the DSD audio playback circuit, and the DSD audio playback circuit is connected to the headset jack. The processor outputs a DSD audio signal to the DSD audio playback circuit in response to triggering performed by a user. The DSD audio playback circuit is configured to process the DSD audio signal, generate an alert tone based on a current scenario, and superpose the processed DSD audio signal and the alert tone. The headset jack is configured to connect to a headset and play the superposed audio signal and alert tone using the headset.
METHODS AND INTERFACES FOR HOME MEDIA CONTROL
The present disclosure generally relates to interfaces and techniques for media playback on one or more devices. In accordance with some embodiments, an electronic device includes a display, one or more processors, and memory. The electronic device receives user input and, in response to receiving the user input, displays, on the display, a multi-device interface that includes: one or more indicators associated with a plurality of available playback devices that are connected to the device and available to initiate playback of media from the device, and a media playback status of the plurality of available playback devices.
