Abstract:
Aspects relate to automatic execution of a target action, which can be energy-intensive tasks, processing compute-intensive tasks, interaction with a node, or combinations thereof. A context aware trigger, power aware trigger, a randomly scheduled wakeup trigger, a deterministically scheduled wakeup trigger, and/or a predictively scheduled wakeup trigger can be utilized to determine the availability of contexts associated with the target action. Based on the availability of a context that should be available, one or more target actions are automatically executed and/or selectively suspended.
Abstract:
The various embodiments include a near-eye display having a transmissive display and a diffractive micro-lens array. The transmissive display may be positioned relative to the diffractive micro-lens array so that the distance between the transmissive display and the diffractive micro-lens array is be approximately equal to focal length of the diffractive micro-lens array. The transmissive display may also be positioned relative to the diffractive micro-lens array so that a percentage of light emitted from the transmissive display is diffracted by the micro-lens array and collimated into focus on a retina of a human eye. The transmissive display may be further positioned relative to the diffractive micro-lens array so that light from a real world scene passes through transparent portions of the transmissive display and is diffracted by the micro-lens array out of focus of the human eye.
Abstract:
An apparatus, a method, and a computer program product are provided. The apparatus detects an eye gaze on a first region in a real world scene, sets a boundary that surrounds the first region, the boundary excluding at least a second region in the real world scene, performs an object recognition procedure on the first region within the boundary, and refrains from performing an object recognition procedure on the at least the second region.

Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for modulating optics in a display are provided. An apparatus forms a plurality of zone plates in a liquid crystal using electric fields. Each zone plate has a center, and the centers are aligned along a first axis of the display. The apparatus moves the plurality of zone plates in a first direction along a second axis of the display different from the first axis of the display, while maintaining alignment of the centers of the plurality of zone plates along the first axis. Such movement is provided through repositioning of electric fields through the liquid crystal.
