Eye display interface for a touch display device
A wearable eye display device allows a user to use the touch interface of their touch display device while enjoying a personal view of the touch display device's display interface. During use the display screen of the touch display device is deactivated while the touch interface remains active. The wearable eye display device enables the touch display device to be used with greater privacy since the display screen is not observable to others while deactivated. In addition, power consumption is reduced since the touch display device consumes less power when viewing the display interface on the wearable eye display device instead of on the touch display device's larger display area.
HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY DEVICE WITH DETACHABLE DEVICE
A head-mounted device including a main frame couplable to an electronic device and a support part configured to affix the main frame to a facial side of the user, and an auxiliary input device including a body, an input module disposed on at least one surface of the body and configured to process an input signal for controlling a function of the electronic device, a sensor module disposed in the body and configured to obtain sensing information in accordance with a movement of the auxiliary input device, and a connection part electrically connectable to the electronic device and configured to serve as a path through which the input signal and the sensing information are transmitted to the electronic device is provided.
GAZE-BASED USER INTERFACE WITH ASSISTANT FEATURES FOR SMART GLASSES IN IMMERSIVE REALITY APPLICATIONS
A method for managing a user interface in a smart glass is provided. The method includes identifying an eye gesture of the user of the smart glass, based on an eye-tracking signal indicative of a pupil location of the user, assessing a user intention for an application displayed in a user interface in the headset based on the eye gesture, and activating the application based on the user intention. A smart glass for use with the above method is also provided.
Virtual assistant system to enable actionable messaging
A virtual assistant system includes a mobile device to receive an input command corresponding to a function to be performed at one or more external services, to translate the input command into a semantic atom representing the command, and to transmit the semantic atom, and an assistant server configured to receive the transmitted semantic atom, the assistant server including a plurality of plugins, each plugin corresponding to a respective one of the external services and configured to generate a proprietary language command corresponding to the received semantic atom for each external service in which the function is to be performed.
Coordinated Audio Data Presentation Using A Head-Worn Wearable Device And A Communicatively Coupled Electronic Device, And Methods Of Use Thereof
Systems and methods are provided for coordinating presentation of audio data using a head-worn wearable device. The method includes, while an associated electronic device is in proximity to the head-wearable device and the electronic device is presenting audio data, in accordance with a determination that sensor data received at the head-wearable device indicates that a precondition for presenting audio data is present at the head-wearable device, ceasing to cause presentation of the audio data at the electronic device and causing presentation of the audio data at the speaker of the head-wearable device. The method includes, in accordance with a determination that the sensor data received at the head-wearable device indicates that the precondition for presenting audio data is no longer present at the head-wearable device, ceasing to cause presentation of the audio data at the head-wearable device, and causing presentation of the audio data at the electronic device.
Bluetooth connection method, device, and system
A BLUETOOTH connection system includes a BLUETOOTH headset, and a first electronic device and a second electronic device that have been paired with the BLUETOOTH headset. The BLUETOOTH headset is configured to establish a first connection to the first electronic device, where the first connection includes an asynchronous connection-oriented link (ACL) connection. The BLUETOOTH headset is further configured to send a BLUETOOTH Low Energy (BLE) broadcast message. The second electronic device is configured to establish a second connection to the BLUETOOTH headset after receiving the BLE broadcast message.
Systems and methods for continuous, active, and non-intrusive user authentication
Provided here are systems and method for non-intrusive authentication of a user. Such systems and methods may include in an embodiment a waveform generator to generate a message, encrypt the message, and transmit the encrypted message to one or more transmitters. The system may include a decryption engine to receive a bone conduction signal from one or more receivers, process the bone conduction signal, decrypt the processed bone conduction signal, and separate a bone conduction token portion from the decrypted bone conduction signal. The system may include an authentication engine to analyze the bone conduction signal, authenticate a user for the operation detected based on a comparison of the analyzed bone conduction signal and the pilot portion of the message exceeding a preselected threshold, and verify bone conduction signal authenticity via the bone conduction token portion and the token portion.
COMMUNICATION CONTROL DEVICE, METHOD OF CONTROLLING COMMUNICATION, AND PROGRAM
[Object] To reduce power consumption even more.
[Solution] Provided is a communication control device including a communication necessity information acquisition unit configured to acquire communication necessity information indicating necessity to communicate with an external device, and a drive control unit configured to control drive of a first communication unit and a second communication unit on a basis of the acquired communication necessity information, the first communication unit communicating with the external device using a first communication mode, the second communication unit communicating with the external device using a second communication mode capable of transferring data at a rate higher than the first communication mode. The drive control unit controls a drive state of each of the first communication unit and the second communication unit to be set to one of an active state capable of communicating with the external device, a power-saving state having lower power consumption than the active state, and an inactive state being a power off state.
Headset system for establishing a call session
There is provided a headset system for establishing a call session between a selected plurality of users. The headset system comprises a pair of headphones worn by an end-user, and providing audio features for the user, the pair of headphones shaped to substantially fit inside a helmet. The headset system also comprises a companion application running on the end-user's connected device and connected to the pair of headphones, in which the companion application is used for setting up a group consisting of a selected plurality of users; in which the end-user, via a single user input, is able to establish a call session through the connected device between the selected plurality of users without having to take the helmet off and without handling the connected device.
AUGMENTED REALITY SYSTEM AND METHOD
An augmented reality system and method including calculating an orientation of a head mounted display, the head mounted display comprising a cursor located fixedly on the display, estimating pixel positions of a real world feature viewable via the head mounted display, and displaying a display element having an assigned function in a fixed position relative to the estimated pixel positions the real world feature, the display element is configured to execute the assigned function when the cursor is maneuvered to be on top of the display element. Additionally, the method including displaying, on a head mounted display a plurality of display elements, each having an assigned function, in a fixed positions relative to real world features viewed via the display, detecting according to sensed orientation when the cursor is maneuvered to be on top of one of the display elements, and executing the corresponding assigned function.
