International Classification:

G06F 3/16

Abstract:

Systems and methods for controlling an audio device include a system provider device that retrieves, through a network, audio device information for at least one audio device. The system provider device also receives an indication of a triggered alert from at least one of a plurality of devices. In various embodiments, the system provider device determines an alert type corresponding to the received indication of the triggered alert. In addition, the system provider device modifies an audio setting of the at least one audio device based on the determined alert type. In some examples, the system provider device further modifies the audio setting of the at least one audio device to return the modified audio setting of the at least one audio device to a pre-modified setting.

G06T 19/00
G06K 9/00

Abstract:

Systems and methods for device and content management include determining a user is viewing virtual reality content from a user device, and receiving, through a network from the user device, body information associated with the user while the user is viewing the virtual reality content. A user device management configuration associated with the body information is determined. A user device management action is retrieved using the user device management configuration. A notification associated with the user device management action that causes the user device to perform the user device management action and modify the virtual reality content being viewed by the user is sent through the network to the user device.

G06F 21/62

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer program products are disclosed for automatically adjusting a display to obscure application data. In an example, a computer-implemented method may include collecting eye data from a user, receiving the eye data collected from the user, analyzing the eye data, determining that eyesight of the user is on a display based on the eye data, providing data on the display to the user when the eyesight of the user is determined to be on the display, determining that the eyesight of the user is off the display, obscuring the data on the display in response to determining that the eyesight of the user is off the display, removing the obscuring applied to the data on the display when the eyesight of the user returns to the display.

Abstract:

Systems and methods for device and content management include determining a user is viewing virtual reality content from a user device. Body information associated with the user while the user is viewing the virtual reality content is received through a network from the user device. User engagement information associated with the virtual reality content being viewed by the user is determined using the body information. A first content management action based on the virtual reality content being viewed by the user is generated using the user engagement information. A first notification associated with the first content management action that causes a first change to the virtual reality content being viewed by the user is sent through the network to the user device.

International Classification:

G06F 9/445
G06F 11/36

Abstract:

A system for maintaining and upgrading hardware device functioning provides processes to select and install updates for software (e.g., applications or apps) on the hardware device. A notification system provides information for discretion and control over the selection of software updates to be applied to consumer mobile devices according to the particular characteristics of the device, e.g., the model of device, the specific operating system of the device, and software applications installed on the device. The notification system may be integral with app stores on mobile devices and tablets, and may also be applicable to the Internet of Things. A notification may take the form, for example, of a warning or recommendation associated with an update for an app on the user device and may enable the user to make an informed decision beforehand about whether or not to install a particular update on the user device.
