    Abstract: A system, tracking an object within an environ, includes a hub with a processor instantiating a vision recognizer, a data store storing location data including a first location model, and a first camera which captures and provides, within a first field of view (FOV), a first image to the hub. The first image includes a first depiction of a first captured location, and the vision recognizer determines an object is present at the first location when the first depiction of the first captured location corresponds to the first location model. The first image depicts an element present within the first FOV, the data store further stores an image library record including a first object model, and the vision recognizer determines whether the object is present at the first location when the element depicted in the first image corresponds to the object as modeled by the first object model.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a system and related operating method of providing video game functionality that is contextually linked with video program content. In certain implementations, the method involves the steps of: causing presentation of a video program at a presentation device; identifying a portion of the video program as a candidate for gamification; processing the identified portion into a video game segment that represents a gamified version of the identified portion; and causing presentation of the video game segment at a playback device.

    Abstract: An intelligent battery charging system for improving battery safety, battery longevity, and battery charging efficiency. The intelligent battery charging system includes a memory that is arranged to store an intelligent battery controller system. The intelligent battery controller system is executable by a processor and is in communication with a device state sensor, a battery temperature sensor, one or more current sensors, and a battery charge level sensor. The intelligent battery controller system is configured to monitor, via the battery temperature sensor, a temperature of the battery for a mobile device and apply one or more of a plurality of remedial actions to lower the temperature of the battery when a battery temperature above a certain threshold is measured.

    Abstract: A unique code per pairing of each remote control to each controlled device (such as a TV or other media device) is used in infrared (IR) commands sent by the remote control for the device to detect if the remote control has been moved to a different room. The remote control supports both IR and short range wireless radio (e.g., Bluetooth®) commands. Both IR and Bluetooth® commands are sent on every key press of the remote control unit. When the IR command is received by the device, the device will check if the unique code is from a remote control unit currently paired to the device. If the unique code is not from a remote control unit currently paired to the device, the device will initiate pairing with the remote control unit and execute the command.

    Abstract: Various arrangements of wireless tracking systems are presented. A tag device may be presented that include a first plurality of antennas. Each antenna of the first plurality of antennas may have an antenna radiation pattern pointed in a different direction. The tag device may include a wireless transmitter interface that transmits via each antenna of the first plurality of antennas. The wireless tracking system may also include a tracker device that tracks a direction to the tag device. The tracker device may include a second plurality of antennas. Each antenna of the second plurality of antennas may have an antenna radiation pattern pointed in a different direction. The tracker device may include a wireless interface receiver that performs a plurality of signal strength measurements using the second plurality of antennas.

    Abstract: Techniques are described for quick charging of batteries. For example, a battery charging system can include a battery charger integrated circuit (IC) and a fuel gauge IC coupled between a battery and a central processor to execute a stored multi-phase battery charging protocol. Executing the protocol can include charging the battery in a constant current regulation phase by applying a constant charge current until a charge voltage (e.g., measured by the battery charger IC) reaches a defined regulation voltage that is higher than the nominal voltage of the battery plus the voltage drop across series components of the battery. Protection of the battery during such charging includes monitoring a present relative state of charge (RSOC) of the battery (e.g., by the fuel gauge IC) to detect when the present RSOC reaches a defined regulation RSOC level that may be substantially 100 percent of the charge capacity of the battery.
