20100067407 | Methods and Systems for Provisioning Network Services - Certain exemplary embodiments provide a method, comprising: automatically detecting at an agent an installation of a communications device to a local network coupled to the agent; automatically offering via the communications device a plurality of user-selectable service options relating to a service provider's network and relating to at least one capability of the communications device, the at least one capability detected by the agent; in response to a selection of at least one service option from the plurality of service options, providing via the agent a user connection address. | 03-18-2010 |
20110130885 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING THE PROVISIONING OF ENERGY TO OR FROM A MOBILE ENERGY STORAGE DEVICE - A method and system for managing the provisioning of energy to or from mobile energy storage devices are disclosed. For example, the method receives a current intended energy use for a mobile energy storage device associated with a user, and analyzes whether the current intended energy use is achievable based upon a current energy state of the mobile energy storage device. The method then provides a recommendation to an endpoint device associated with the user in response to the current intended energy use. | 06-02-2011 |
20120139731 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR WIRELESS MONITORING OF SPORTS ACTIVITIES - The subject disclosure provides a system and method for wireless monitoring of sports activities. A subject participating in a sports activity is associated with biometric sensors which measure the subject's body movements. In one aspect, the system includes a sensor for continuously gathering biometric data from a subject performing a sports activity where the biometric data associated with the body movements of the subject. A wireless transceiver coupled to the sensor transmits the biometric data and a database engine receives the biometric data from the wireless transceiver and providing real-time feedback. The real-time feedback associated with the biometric data from the subject is characterized by instructions associated with the sports activity. | 06-07-2012 |
20120151034 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONFIGURING INSTRUMENTATION DEVICES - A method and system for managing an instrumentation device include accessing an image of the instrumentation device. Based on the image, an identity for the instrumentation device is determined. The identity is used to register the instrumentation device by configuring a gateway at a multimedia content distribution network client location to access and communicate with the instrumentation device. The identity of the instrumentation device and the gateway may be stored for future configuration of the gateway. | 06-14-2012 |
20130097317 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REMOTE TRUST MANAGEMENT FOR MACHINE TO MACHINE COMMUNICATIONS IN A NETWORK - A method, non-transitory computer readable medium and apparatus for providing remote trust management for machine to machine communications in a network are disclosed. For example, the method receives a request from a sensor to join a wireless network, determines a trust score of the sensor by a server at the network, and allows the sensor to join the wireless network if the trust score is greater than a predetermined threshold. | 04-18-2013 |
20130127618 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MACHINE TO MACHINE NETWORK SECURITY MONITORING IN A COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK - A method, non-transitory computer readable medium and apparatus for providing network security monitoring in a communications network are disclosed. For example, the method receives communications traffic associated with a sensor network from a sensor that is a member of the sensor network, analyzes the communications traffic to determine if an attack is occurring on the sensor network, and generates an alarm if the attack is occurring on the sensor network. | 05-23-2013 |
20140113635 | CONTENT-BASED HANDOVER METHOD AND SYSTEM - A handover of a wireless communication device is performed between a first wireless band and a second wireless band when a detected feature occurs within a content stream being communicated with the wireless communication device. | 04-24-2014 |
20150364139 | SENSOR ENHANCED SPEECH RECOGNITION - A system for sensor enhanced speech recognition is disclosed. The system may obtain visual content or other content associated with a user and an environment of the user. Additionally, the system may obtain, from the visual content, metadata associated with the user and the environment of the user. The system may also include determining, based on the visual content and metadata, if the user is speaking. If the user is determined to be speaking, the system may obtain audio content associated with the user and the environment. The system may then adapt, based on the visual content, audio content, and metadata, one or more acoustic models that match the user and the environment. Once the one or more acoustic models are adapted and loaded, the system may enhance a speech recognition process or other process associated with the user. | 12-17-2015 |
20150365759 | Exploiting Visual Information For Enhancing Audio Signals Via Source Separation And Beamforming - A system for exploiting visual information for enhancing audio signals via source separation and beamforming is disclosed. The system may obtain visual content associated with an environment of a user, and may extract, from the visual content, metadata associated with the environment. The system may determine a location of the user based on the extracted metadata. Additionally, the system may load, based on the location, an audio profile corresponding to the location of the user. The system may also load a user profile of the user that includes audio data associated with the user. Furthermore, the system may cancel, based on the audio profile and user profile, noise from the environment of the user. Moreover, the system may include adjusting, based on the audio profile and user profile, an audio signal generated by the user so as to enhance the audio signal during a communications session of the user. | 12-17-2015 |
