Methods, systems, and program products for securely blocking access to system operations and data

One embodiment provides a method, including: identifying, using one or more sensors of a central communication system, a user action performed by the user at one of a plurality of image capturing devices, wherein each of the plurality of image capturing devices is associated with a video capture feed separate from a video capture feed of the other of the plurality of image capturing devices; determining, at the central communication system, the user action corresponds to a video capture action command; activating, at the central communication system and responsive to the determining, the one of the plurality of image capturing devices; and capturing and transmitting the video capture feed of the one of the plurality of image capturing devices to one or more information handling devices that are communicating with the central communication system. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Video activation based upon detection of user action

Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for projecting interfaces on a surface. An apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The code is executable by the processor to scan a surface around a display device connected to an electronic device, determine a usable area of the scanned surface for projecting at least one graphical interface of the electronic device, and project the determined at least one graphical interface on the usable area of the scanned surface using at least one projector.

Projecting interfaces on a surface

An apparatus for setting an orientation mode includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor to a context for a route to be navigated by a user. In various examples, the code causes the processor to determine an orientation mode for the context. In various examples, the code causes the processor to set an orientation mode for a navigation system to a first orientation mode based on the context. A method and a computer program may perform the functions of the apparatus.

Method for contextual navigation direction orientation

In one aspect, a device includes at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage includes instructions executable by the at least one processor to determine a first context and to determine that a threshold number of messages of a message chain have been received within a threshold amount of time. Based on the first context and the threshold number of messages being received within the threshold amount of time, the instructions are executable to delay presenting at least one notification regarding one or more messages of the message chain.

Message notification delay

One embodiment provides a method, the method including: receiving, at a shock analysis system, image data corresponding to at least one image capture device and associated with transportation of a package; determining, at the shock analysis system and by analyzing the image data, the package has undergone a shock of a magnitude exceeding a predetermined threshold; and performing, at the shock analysis system and responsive to determining the package has undergone the shock exceeding the predetermined threshold, at least one predetermined action, wherein the at least one predetermined action comprises notifying a user of the shock.

Image analysis to identify package shock

In one aspect, at least one device may include at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage may include instructions executable by the at least one processor to access an image and to execute object recognition using the image to identify at least a first object from the image. The instructions may also be executable to access a database indicating whether use permissions are grantable for various objects and to determine, based on accessing the database, that use permissions are grantable for the first object. The instructions may then be executable to control a display to present a graphical user interface (GUI) on the display, where the GUI may indicate the use permissions for the first object and include a selector that is selectable to initiate secure communication to authenticate an entity as being granted the use permissions for the first object.

Graphical user interfaces for authentication to use digital content

Apparatus, methods, and computer program products for managing power sharing in electronic devices are disclosed. One apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor to determine, in real-time, whether one or more first electronic devices that are compatible with a second electronic device that is low on power are within a predetermined geographic distance of the second electronic device and, in response to determining that one or more first electronic devices that are compatible with the second electronic device are within the predetermined geographic distance of the second electronic device, transmit a request to the one or more first electronic devices inquiring whether any of the one or more first electronic devices are willing to share power with the second electronic device. Methods and computer program products that include and/or perform the operations of the apparatus are also disclosed.

Apparatus, methods, and program products for managing power sharing in electronic devices

One embodiment provides a method, the method including: reading, using a device application identification system of an information handling device of a user, an identifier broadcast by a device, wherein the device is enabled to communicate with other devices within a network of devices; identifying, using the device application identification system and based on the identifier, a software application corresponding to the device; and presenting, using the device application identification system, the software application to the user. Other aspects are claimed and described.
