20090150006 | ERGONOMIC COMPUTER ALIGNMENT - A system and computer program product for automatically positioning a computer to an ergonomically correct orientation are presented. An optic sensor at a top of a computer monitor measures a distance and angle to a user's eye. This distance and angle, along with stored anatomical data for a specific user, are used to automatically adjust a base of the computer, thus positioning the computer's keyboard in an ergonomically correct alignment for the specific user. | 06-11-2009 |
20090258713 | AUTOMATIC FAIL-OVER FOR GAMING CONTROLLERS - A set of controllers can be communicatively linked to a gaming console. One of the controllers can be programmatically designed as an active controller and another can be programmatically designed as a fail-over controller. A failure of an active controller can be determined. Responsive to this determination, the fail-over controller can be automatically substituted for the active controller. | 10-15-2009 |
20130011068 | Policy-Based Image Management - The different illustrative embodiments provide a method, computer program product, and apparatus for managing an image. A determination is made whether an object is present in a subset of a plurality of images using an identification of the object. A determination is made whether the object is permitted to be present in the subset of the plurality of images using the policy for the user associated with the object responsive to a determination that the object is present in the subset of the plurality of images using a policy for a user associated with the object. A removal action of the object is performed on the subset of the plurality of images responsive to an absence of a determination that the object is permitted to be present in the subset of the plurality of images using the policy. | 01-10-2013 |
20130244791 | Video Game Modification Based on User State - Provided are techniques for modifying the action of a computer game based upon information corresponding to a user. Information may include, but is not limited to, the health and social status of a user and current events.

20140067982 | DETERMINING AN ESTIMATION OF MESSAGE RESPONSE TIME - A first computer receives a first chat message from a second computer within a first chat session. The first computer determines an initial estimated response time to the first chat message, based on chat history of a user of the first computer, and sends the initial estimated response time to the second computer. The first computer then determines a subsequent estimated response time, which is based on the activity of a user of the first computer. The first computer adds the initial estimated response time and the subsequent estimated response time to determine a total estimated response time, which is then sent to the second computer. | 03-06-2014 |
20140173696 | WEB CONFERENCE OVERSTAY PROTECTION - Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for managing participants of a web conference that follows a first web conference.
