Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a body with a processor, a camera and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A device, comprising: a processor coupled to a wireless transceiver; a camera to determine a distance, shape, or dimension of an object proximal to the device; an accelerometer to detect acceleration of the device; and a module to record the motion of the device, to compare and to render video responsive to a third-party or another device based on camera and accelerometer outputs. 2. The device of claim 1 , comprising a pressure sensor, a motion sensor, a finger sensor, a digit motion sensor, an EKG sensor, a bio sensor, a medical sensor, or a temperature sensor. 3. The device of claim 1 , comprising a module to follow other third parties or other devices in a flock. 4. The device of claim 1 , comprising a road-contacting surface, air-contacting surface or water-contacting surface. 5. The device of claim 1 , comprising a gesture identifying component configured to identify hand or finger gesture to the device. 6. The device of claim 1 , comprising an optical positioning system or a laser positioning system. 7. The device of claim 1 , comprising phone display, an augmented reality display, or a virtual reality display. 8. The device of claim 1 , comprising a sensor to detect an imminent impact and activate crash protection for a user. 9. The device of claim 1 , comprising a hidden markov model (HMM) or a deep learning machine to detect patterns from the camera and the accelerometer. 10. The device of claim 1 , comprising an emotion detector to detect a user condition. 11. A system, comprising: an accelerometer disposed in the system for measuring a force on the system; a radio frequency transmitter disposed in the system and coupled to the accelerometer for transmitting measurements; a camera in the system to determine a distance, shape, or dimension of an object near the system; a radio frequency receiver for receiving the measurements; and a module to compare a third party or device motion with a user motion and to render video responsive to the motion. 12. The system of claim 11 , comprising a pressure sensor, a motion sensor, a finger sensor, a digit motion sensor, an EKG sensor, a bio sensor, a medical sensor, a temperature sensor, a hand gesture sensor. 13. The system of claim 11 , comprising a module to follow other third parties or other devices in a flock. 14. The system of claim 11 , comprising a positioning system. 15. The system of claim 11 , comprising a cloud computer coupled to the receiver to predict the impact and to protect a user for the potential impact. 16. The system of claim 11 , comprising a phone display, an augmented reality display, or a virtual reality display controlled by the processor. 17. The system of claim 11 , comprising vibrator coupled to the processor. 18. The system of claim 17 , comprising a phone display, an augmented reality display, or a virtual reality display to render images to stimulate or excite a user. 19. The system of claim 11 , comprising phone display, an augmented reality display, or a virtual reality display to render images to stimulate or excite a user. 20. The system of claim 19 , comprising an object, a vibrator or a toy operating in conjunction with the phone display, the augmented reality display, or the virtual reality display to render images to stimulate or excite a user.
