20150066494 | SMART CIRCULAR AUDIO BUFFER - An audio buffer is used to capture audio in anticipation of a user command to do so. Sensors and processor activity may be monitored, looking for indicia suggesting that the user command may be forthcoming. Upon detecting such indicia, a circular buffer is activated. Audio correction may be applied to the audio stored in the circular buffer. After receiving the user command instructing the device to process or record audio, at least a portion of the audio that was stored in the buffer before the command is combined with audio received after the command. The combined audio may then be processed, transmitted or stored. | 03-05-2015 |

20140163978 | SPEECH RECOGNITION POWER MANAGEMENT - Power consumption for a computing device may be managed by one or more keywords. For example, if an audio input obtained by the computing device includes a keyword, a network interface module and/or an application processing module of the computing device may be activated. The audio input may then be transmitted via the network interface module to a remote computing device, such as a speech recognition server. Alternately, the computing device may be provided with a speech recognition engine configured to process the audio input for on-device speech recognition. | 06-12-2014 |

20150227782 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SENDING DIGITAL IMAGES - Facial recognition algorithms may identify the faces of one or more people in a digital image. Multiple types of communication may be available for the different people in the digital image. A user interface may be presented indicating recognized faces along with the available forms of communication for the corresponding person. An indication of the total number of people available to be communicated with using each form of communication may be presented. The user may have the option to choose one or more forms of communication, causing the digital image to be sent to the recipients using the selected forms of communication. An individual may have provided information for facial recognition of the individual to a service. Based on the information, the service may recognize that the individual is in an uploaded picture and send the digital image to the user account of the individual. | 08-13-2015 |

20130344152 | PEROXIDE DISPERSIONS - The viscosity of aqueous dispersions of normally solid organic peroxides may be advantageously lowered through the use of surfactants which are polyglyceryl esters of C6-C12 fatty acids. The reduction in viscosity facilitates milling the peroxides to reduce particle size and also provides dispersions of small particle size peroxides which may be readily poured or pumped. The aqueous dispersions are useful as components of pharmaceutical, personal care, and cleaning products and the like and are effective decolorizing agents for food products, industrial products and the like. | 12-26-2013 |

20110086959 | SHEAR THINNING PEROXIDE DISPERSIONS - Provided are dispersions which comprise more than about (40) percent by weight of an organic peroxide which is normally solid, an effective dispersing amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable dispersing agent and water. The water and about (40) percent or more peroxide forms a paste. Addition of the dispersing agent/surfactant to a non-flowing organic paste resulted in the formation of a shear thinning aqueous dispersion. The aqueous dispersions can also contain optional components such as thickening agents and anionic emulsifiers. | 04-14-2011 |
