A card can include a processor; memory accessible to the processor; and instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to: decrypt a private key of a payor stored in memory of the card, where the private key is associated with digital cryptocurrency; use the decrypted private key to generate a signed message to transfer the digital cryptocurrency to an address of a payee; and output the signed message.

Biometric account card

An apparatus can include a processor; memory operatively coupled to the processor wherein the memory stores identifier information; a network interface; notification circuitry; and policy engine circuitry that, responsive to receipt of identifier information via the network interface, activates the notification circuitry if, according to a match criterion, a match exists between at least a portion of the received identifier information and at least a portion of identifier information previously transmitted via the network interface and stored in the memory.

Stateful notification

An embodiment provides a system, including: a sensor unit, comprising: a sensor that captures data; a memory storing data captured by the sensor; a photovoltaic cell operatively coupled to the sensor and the memory; the photovoltaic cell formed as a transparent layer; a display operatively coupled to the photovoltaic cell; a communication component that communicates the data captured by the sensor to a device; and a device that receives the data captured by the sensor via the communication component. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Sensor with a photovoltaic cell power source

A method provides a band, including: placing an energy harvesting mechanism within a deformable band; the energy harvesting mechanism being placed to transform deformation of the deformable band into stored energy; and providing a connection element to the energy harvesting mechanism; said connection element offering a coupling of the stored energy of the deformable band to a device. In an embodiment, a force is applied to deform a deformable band along a length dimension of the deformable band. The force acts to move an energy harvesting mechanism of the deformable band such that the energy harvesting mechanism transforms deformation of the deformable band into stored energy. The stored energy may be used, e.g., to collect information using a sensor of said deformable band. Other aspects are described and claimed.

An aspect provides a method, including: detecting a received communication at a device; detecting, using a device orientation sensor, orientation data relating to device orientation; the orientation data being associated in time with the received communication; determining, using the orientation data, a value for a magnitude of a notification of the received communication; and adjusting, using a processor of the device, the magnitude of the notification of the received communication according to the value. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Device notification adjustment dependent on user proximity

An aspect provides a method, including: in a low power mode of an electronic device, examining, using a network component, an application specific network connection; in response to the examining, using the network component to consult a policy to determine a communication on behalf of the specific application to be sent over the application specific network connection; and sending, using the network component, the communication on behalf of the specific application without waking one or more main processors of the electronic device. Other aspects are described and claimed.

A system can include a base device and a satellite device configured to operate in an attached state and to operate in a detached state; circuitry that responds to a transition from the detached state to the attached state by establishing a wired communication session between the base device and the satellite device; circuitry that responds to a transition from the attached state to the detached state by establishing a wireless communication session between the base device and the satellite device; and circuitry that communicates information, via an established wired communication session in the attached state and via an established wireless communication session in the detached state, from the base device to the satellite device for rendering the communicated information to a display of the satellite device. Various other apparatuses, systems, methods, etc., are also disclosed.

Establishing a remote desktop

An apparatus and method for pairing a base and a detachable device. A query module queries a detachable device in response to the detachable device connecting to a base. The detachable device provides a display for the base if the detachable device and base are connected. A determination module determines if the detachable device is paired with the base. A credential module obtains a pairing credential for a pairing in response to the determination module determining that the detachable device is unpaired with the base.

Pairing of base and detachable device

An embodiment provides a band, including: an energy harvesting mechanism that stores energy in response to deformation of the band; a device; and a connection coupling the stored energy of the band to the device. In an embodiment, a force is applied to deform a deformable band along a length dimension of the deformable band.
