Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a microphone of a voice-controlled device, a speech input, generating an electrical signal having a first gain level that is below a gain threshold for audible detection by a user, transmitting the electrical signal to the speaker and detecting, by the microphone, an audio signal that includes a combination of ambient noise and a probe audio signal, wherein the probe audio signal is output by the speaker based on the electrical signal. The method further includes determining a power level of the probe audio signal and determining a state of the display based on the power level of the probe audio signal.

Abstract: A system and method delivers a message from a first device of a first user to a second device of a second user. Message data corresponding to a message to the second user is received, and a user profile associated with the second user is determined. The second device determines that the second user is not proximate and searches for the second user. Once the second user is found, the message is delivered.

Abstract: A system and method establishes a communication connection between a first device of a first user and a second device of a second user. Request data corresponding to a request to establish a communication connection with a second user is received, and a user profile associated with the second user is determined. One or more sensors of the second device receive input data corresponding to the environment of the second device, and an identity of the second user is determined based thereon. The communication connection is established and, based on the identity, the second device tracks movement of the second user in the environment.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a microphone of a voice-controlled device, a speech input from a user and determining, by the voice-controlled device, that a power state of an AV display device that is coupled to the voice-controlled device is an ON or OFF state. Based on the user intent determined from the speech input and the power state of the AV display, the voice-controlled device sends data to the AV display device to switch the AV display device ON or OFF. The method can further include receiving, by the voice-controlled device, content from a content source location and sending the content to the AV display device via an AV port.

Abstract: Described herein is a system for improving sentiment detection and/or recognition using multiple inputs. For example, an autonomously motile device is configured to generate audio data and/or image data and perform sentiment detection processing. The device may process the audio data and the image data using a multimodal temporal attention model to generate sentiment data that estimates a sentiment score and/or a sentiment category. In some examples, the device may also process language data (e.g., lexical information) using the multimodal temporal attention model. The device can adjust its operations based on the sentiment data. For example, the device may improve an interaction with the user by estimating the user's current emotional state, or can change a position of the device and/or sensor(s) of the device relative to the user to improve an accuracy of the sentiment data.

Abstract: An autonomous mobile device (AMD) may be used in an environment as a communication endpoint for voice or video communications. An incoming request for communication may initiate a process in which the AMD finds a user within the environment. Information obtained from sensors onboard the AMD or in the environment may be used to determine the whereabouts of the user. If an existing communication endpoint is not available to the user or cannot support a requested communication modality, the AMD may travel to permitted areas within the environment to find the user, while avoiding areas designated as private. Once found, communication may be established with the user. If the incoming request expires, the AMD may present information indicative of the request to the user.
