Techniques for determining user identification and attributing the user identification to a touch input received at a touch screen enabled electronic device are described. Some embodiments may include a touch screen enabled electronic device performing facial recognition to determine the identification of a user providing a touch input to the touch screen enabled electronic device. In some embodiments, the user identification is determined from a group of users associated with the electronic device. The touch input may correspond to an action or request, such as selecting an icon on the touch screen. In some embodiments, output data may be generated for display on the touch screen in response to the selected action or request. The user identification determined from the facial recognition may be used to personalize or customize, such as based on user preferences, the output data for display on the touch screen.

User identification attribution for touch interactions

Systems, methods, and devices for adaptably authenticating a user are disclosed. A device captures a user input, and sends data corresponding thereto to a system. The system determines natural language understanding (NLU) results representing the user input. A user authentication component of the system receives the NLU results and determines a skill configured to perform an action responsive to the user input. The user authentication component adaptably performs user authentication based on a user authentication condition associated with the skill. If the user can be authenticated to the satisfaction of the condition, the NLU results data are sent to the skill, along with an indicator representing the user was authenticated by the system.

User authentication as a service

A computing system and method for producing and consuming metadata within multi-dimensional data is provided. The computing system comprising a see-through display, a sensor system, and a processor configured to: in a recording phase, generate an annotation at a location in a three dimensional environment, receive, via the sensor system, a stream of telemetry data recording movement of a first user in the three dimensional environment, receive a message to be recorded from the first user, and store, in memory as annotation data for the annotation, the stream of telemetry data and the message, and in a playback phase, display a visual indicator of the annotation at the location, receive a selection of the visual indicator by a second user, display a simulacrum superimposed onto the three dimensional environment and animated according to the telemetry data, and present the message via the animated simulacrum.
