Abstract:
The disclosure is related to identifying an Internet of Things (IoT) device with an image of the IoT device. A user device captures the image of the IoT device, wherein the image of the IoT device includes at least a portion of an environment around the IoT device, and transmits the image from the user device to the IoT device, wherein the IoT device associates the image with information identifying the IoT device. The IoT device receives the image of the IoT device from the user device, stores the image of the IoT device, and associates the image of the IoT device with information identifying the IoT device.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices of the various embodiments enable a receiver device to determine a high watermark margin and a low watermark margin for a cache based on data associated with a selected media instance and control the download of portions of the media instance based at least in part on the determined high watermark margin and low watermark margin. The high watermark margin and the low watermark margin may be determined based on a playback rate of the media instance and a high watermark margin time value and low watermark margin time value, respectively. The low watermark margin may be determined based on a rate of change in buffered portions of the media instance and the high watermark margin may be determined based on the determined low watermark margin and the playback rate.
