20130236040 | AUGMENTED REALITY (AR) AUDIO WITH POSITION AND ACTION TRIGGERED VIRTUAL SOUND EFFECTS - An augmented reality (AR) audio system for augmenting environment or ambient sound with sounds from a virtual speaker or sound source positioned at a location in the space surrounding an AR participant. The sound from the virtual speaker may be triggered by an action of the listener and/or by the location or relative orientation of the listener. The AR audio system includes stereo earphones receiving an augmented audio track from a control unit, and binaural microphones are provided to capture ambient sounds. The control unit operates to process trigger signals and retrieve one or more augmentation sounds. The control unit uses an AR audio mixer to combine the ambient sound from the microphones with the augmentation sounds to generate left and right ear augmented audio or binaural audio, which may be modified for acoustic effects of the environment including virtual objects in the environment or virtual characteristics of real objects. | 09-12-2013 |

20110088094 | System for efficiently handling cryptographic messages containing nonce values in a wireless connectionless environment without comprising security - A system for determining the validity of a received cryptographic message while ensuring for out-of-order messages is utilized to provide for secure communications among peers in a network. In particular, a secure communication module may be configured to accept the cryptographic message in response to a received nonce value of the received message is greater than the largest nonce value yet seen. Otherwise, when the received nonce value is not the largest nonce value yet seen, the secure communication module may be configured to compare the received nonce value with a nonce acceptance window. If the received nonce value falls outside the nonce acceptance window, the secure communication module may be further configured to reject the received message and assume that a replay attack has been detected. If the received nonce value falls within the nonce acceptance window, the secure communication module may be further configured to determine if the received nonce value has been seen before by comparing the received nonce value with a replay window mask. If the received nonce has been seen before, the secure communication module may be further configured to reject the received message and assume a replay attack. Otherwise, the secure communication module may be further configured to accept the message and add the received nonce value to the replay window mask. | 04-14-2011 |
20120210424 | System for Efficiently Handling Cryptographic Messages Containing Nonce Values in a Wireless Connectionless Environment Without Comprising Security - A secure communication module that accepts a cryptographic message if a nonce value for the received message is greater than the largest nonce value yet seen. If the received nonce value is not the largest nonce value yet seen, the secure communication module compares the received nonce value with a nonce acceptance window. If the nonce value falls outside the nonce acceptance window, the secure communication module rejects the received message and assumes a replay attack. Alternatively, if the nonce value falls within the nonce acceptance window, the secure communication module compares the received nonce value with a replay window mask. If comparison with the replay window mask indicates that the received nonce value has been seen before, the secure communication module rejects the received message and assumes a replay attack. Otherwise, the secure communication module accepts the message and adds the received nonce value to the replay window mask. | 08-16-2012 |
