A security system is coupled to a door lock system at a dwelling. A lock device is provided with a lock and a drive shaft. An intelligent door lock system includes: a door status device configured to couple to the drive shaft of the lock device, the door status device determining lock or unlock status of a the lock device, an engine that provides power to lock and unlock the lock and coupled to the door status device, the engine coupled to at least one wireless communication device at the dwelling configured to with a mobile device of a dwelling occupant for communication with the intelligent door lock system to lock or unlock the door, a circuit coupled to the engine, and an energy source coupled to the circuit and providing power to lock or unlock the door, wherein an occupant/owner, or end-user of the dwelling communicates with a server to grant third party access to the dwelling. A security system is configured to be coupled to the intelligent door lock system. The security system includes a video apparatus that captures video is coupled to a motion detection device to take a video of an image of the person or an outline of the person. The video apparatus is configured to provide communication with a communication device of the third party. In response to a communication with the video apparatus and the communication device of the third party, the third party is granted controlled access to the dwelling.

Security system coupled to a door lock system

An intelligent door lock system is coupled to a door at a dwelling. A sensor is at the dwelling. The sensor is coupled to a drive shaft of a lock device to assist in locking and unlocking a lock of a lock device at the door. The lock device is coupled to the sensor and includes a bolt. An engine, an energy source and a memory are coupled together. A camera is coupled to or part of the intelligent door lock system. The camera is configured to define a safe zone in the dwelling in which an occupant, and a non dwelling occupant third person is allowed into the dwelling.

In some examples, an electronic device may present a user interface that is configured to be controlled using a thumb of a single hand that is holding the device. For instance, the interface may present a plurality of selectable items, each of which may correspond to a respective one of a plurality of touch input areas on the display. In some cases, the touch input areas are within reach of the thumb, while the selectable items may be displayed on an area of the display that is not within reach of the thumb. The thumb may be pressed against the display surface with a force greater than a force threshold to select one of the selectable items. Thus, the thumb may be used to interact with the interface while remaining in contact with the display surface, enabling the user to maintain a grip on the device.

Thumb touch interface

A content item to be displayed via a display of an electronic device may be associated with a first set of grey values or a set of color values. The electronic device may generate, maintain, or at least have access to one or more mappings that map the set of color values and/or the first set of grey values to a second set of grey values. Based on the one or more mappings, the electronic device may convert a color value of the set of color values or a first grey value of the first set of grey values to a second grey value of the second set of grey values. The content item may then be displayed utilizing the second grey value.

Grey level-based page turn adjustment

A computing device may output content including text content, audio content, and video content according to one or more content output features. The content output features may include font features and page layout features for text content, volume and playback rate for audio content, and playback rate for video content. In some cases, a consumption rate of content by the individual may be determined to identify values of content output features that may increase consumption of content by the individual. The settings for the content output features may be modified to correspond with the values that provide increased consumption of content.

Controlling content output features to optimize content consumption

Personalized segmentation of media content may be performed to enable users to create end points to segment a media item based on user preferences, such as create a segment of a document that takes a predetermined amount of time to consume or read. In some embodiments, techniques may create new chapters or segments within existing chapters. The techniques may also create titles for the segments or chapters, possibly by leveraging text within the segment or chapter. The end points, segments/chapters, titles, and/or other information may be stored as annotations, which can be selectively used when rendering the media item to reveal the segments/chapters and other data.

Personalized segmentation of media content

A security system is coupled to a door lock system. A sensor is at a dwelling. The sensor is coupled to a drive shaft of a lock device to assist in locking and unlocking a lock of a lock device at a door. An engine, an energy source and a memory are coupled together. The engine is coupled to the sensor. The memory provides information relating to open or closed status of a door to a dwelling occupant or a third party designated by the dwelling occupant. At least one motion detection device is provided to detect a person at or near a door or window at the dwelling. A security system includes a video apparatus that captures video and coupled to the motion detection device to take a video of an image of the person or an outline of the person, wherein the video is configured to begin before motion detection begins.
