Abstract:
Various operations may be performed based on a distance-related function associated with two or more devices. For example, an association procedure for two or more devices may be based on one or more determined distances. Similarly, presence management may be based on one or more determined distances. A distance-related function may take various form including, for example, a distance between devices, two or more distances between devices, a rate of change in a relative distance between devices, relative acceleration between devices, or some combination of two or more of the these distance-related functions.

Abstract:
Methods, devices, and computer program products for robust estimation of color-dependent measurements are described herein. In one aspect, a method for generating a reference color grid that may be placed beside a color-dependent measuring device is disclosed. The reference color grid may contain a number of colors which enable a mapping from the color space of a testing device to a reference color space. This mapping may allow a function that is able to determine an estimate of a color-dependent measurement based on a color in the reference color space to be used. In another aspect, a method for robust estimation of color-dependent measurement using a reference color guide is disclosed.
Abstract:
Operating at least one low duty cycle (LDC) controller to maintain synchronization between the LDC controller and a plurality of LDC terminals operating over a communication network using only overhead channels of the network and conforming to the protocol and timing of said network, wherein synchronization between the LDC controller and the plurality of LDC terminals is maintained separately from the protocol and timing of the communication network, and enables the LDC controller to schedule power down and wake up of the plurality of LDC terminals for durations longer than allowable under the protocol and timing of the communication network.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses, and devices are described for converting non-stereo cameras into a stereo camera. At least one optical element may be used to temporarily change an effective position and an effective orientation of a first non-stereo camera. The changed effective position may be displaced from an effective position of a second non-stereo camera by a predetermined distance, and the changed effective orientation may provide the first non-stereo camera with a field of view that overlaps a field of view of the second non-stereo camera. The at least one optical element may be used to capture a first image with the first non-stereo camera. A second image may be captured with the second non-stereo camera. The second image may have a frame of reference displaced from a frame of reference of the first image by the predetermined distance.
