Abstract:
A method including recognizing at least one gesture to define at least one computer-implemented virtual boundary in a monitoring space, wherein the gesture includes a motion along a path and at a location in a monitored scene space wherein there is a correspondence between the monitoring space and the monitored scene space; causing implementation of the at least one virtual boundary in the monitoring space corresponding to the scene space, wherein at least part of the virtual boundary is determined by the path in the monitored scene space and the at least part of the virtual boundary is located in the monitoring space at a corresponding location equivalent to the path location; and processing received data to generate a response event when there is, relative to the at least one virtual boundary, a change in a portion of the monitored scene space.
Abstract:
The innovation relates to a method and a system for positioning objects, the method comprising detecting, by a central unit, signals from a plurality of receiver/transmitter units at least partly surrounding an area around the central unit; detecting, by the central unit, an absence of at least one signal from at least one of the plurality of receiver/transmitter units at least partly surrounding an area around the central unit; and determining a position of at least one object between the central unit and the at least one of the plurality of receiver/transmitter units based on the detected absence of the at least one signal.
Abstract:
A method comprising receiving audio information by way of a plurality of microphones comprised by an apparatus, determining at least one spatial audio property of the audio information in relation to the apparatus, determining an operational directive based, at least in part, on the spatial audio property, and performing one or more operations in conformance with the operational directive is apparatus
Abstract:
A method comprises receiving information associated with a first content item, designating a first bead apparatus (842) to be associated with the first content item, the first content item being identified by a first content item identifier, causing display of a visual representation of the first content item identifier by the first bead apparatus on a display of the first bead apparatus, receiving information indicative of a content item selection input of the first bead apparatus indicative of selection of the first content item, receiving input indicative of a tag selection input that identifies a tag, and causing an establishment of an association between the first content item and the tag based, at least in part, on the tag selection input. The tag selection input may relate to a tap input associated with the bead apparatus, a rotation input associated with the bead apparatus, and/or the like.
Abstract:
An apparatus, method, and computer program product for: associating a first item with a first portion of a hovering field, the hovering field at least partially encompassing a device, providing a first virtual item representative of the first item and controlling spatial audio in dependence on a position of the first virtual item.
Abstract:
A method comprising receiving information indicative of an incoming communication, determining a notification that signifies the incoming communication, causing rendering of the notification, receiving information indicative of a point of interest selection input that identifies a selected point of interest, and causing performance of a location response action associated with the incoming communication, based at least in part, on the selected point of interest is disclosed.
