Techniques are disclosed for enabling an integrated sensor hub of a main computer to access a detachable peripheral device. In an embodiment, a system includes a main unit having a peripheral interface, an embedded controller, and a device controller. The peripheral interface is configured to be detachably coupled to a peripheral. The peripheral includes a control unit and an input/output device. The embedded controller is configured to communicate with the control unit of the peripheral via the peripheral interface while the peripheral is attached to the peripheral interface. The embedded controller includes at least one data register, and in some embodiments, a set of data registers, configured to store data relating to the peripheral and to the corresponding input/output device. The device controller is configured to read data from the data register(s) of the embedded controller, write data to the data register(s) of the embedded controller, or both.

Accessing input/output devices of detachable peripheral by a main computer

Apparatus, method and storage medium associated with UAV position estimation are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an UAV may comprise a transmitter-receiver arrangement to transmit and receive communication signals, including receipt of absolute positioning system (APS) signals from one or more APS sensors, and wireless signals from one or more proximately located other UAVs; one or more motors or engines to provide propulsive force for the UAV; and a flight controller coupled to the transmitter-receiver arrangement and the one or more motors or engines to control at least the one or more motors or engines to provide propulsive force to navigate the UAV, based at least in part on the APS and relative positioning signals. Other embodiments may be disclosed or claimed.
