Abstract

An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a body with a processor, a camera and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.

Claims (29)

1. A device, comprising:

a processor coupled to a wireless transceiver;

a camera to determine a distance, shape, or dimension of an object proximal to the device;

an accelerometer to detect acceleration of the device; and

a module to record the motion of the device, to compare and to render video responsive to a third-party or another device based on camera and accelerometer outputs.

2. The device of claim 1 , comprising a pressure sensor, a motion sensor, a finger sensor, a digit motion sensor, an EKG sensor, a bio sensor, a medical sensor, or a temperature sensor.

3. The device of claim 1 , comprising a module to follow other third parties or other devices in a flock.

4. The device of claim 1 , comprising a road-contacting surface, air-contacting surface or water-contacting surface.

5. The device of claim 1 , comprising a gesture identifying component configured to identify hand or finger gesture to the device.

6. The device of claim 1 , comprising an optical positioning system or a laser positioning system.

7. The device of claim 1 , comprising phone display, an augmented reality display, or a virtual reality display.

8. The device of claim 1 , comprising a sensor to detect an imminent impact and activate crash protection for a user.

9. The device of claim 1 , comprising a hidden markov model (HMM) or a deep learning machine to detect patterns from the camera and the accelerometer.

10. The device of claim 1 , comprising an emotion detector to detect a user condition.

11. A system, comprising:

an accelerometer disposed in the system for measuring a force on the system;

a radio frequency transmitter disposed in the system and coupled to the accelerometer for transmitting measurements;

a camera in the system to determine a distance, shape, or dimension of an object near the system;

a radio frequency receiver for receiving the measurements; and

a module to compare a third party or device motion with a user motion and to render video responsive to the motion.

12. The system of claim 11 , comprising a pressure sensor, a motion sensor, a finger sensor, a digit motion sensor, an EKG sensor, a bio sensor, a medical sensor, a temperature sensor, a hand gesture sensor.

13. The system of claim 11 , comprising a module to follow other third parties or other devices in a flock.

14. The system of claim 11 , comprising a positioning system.

15. The system of claim 11 , comprising a cloud computer coupled to the receiver to predict the impact and to protect a user for the potential impact.

16. The system of claim 11 , comprising a phone display, an augmented reality display, or a virtual reality display controlled by the processor.

17. The system of claim 11 , comprising vibrator coupled to the processor.

18. The system of claim 17 , comprising a phone display, an augmented reality display, or a virtual reality display to render images to stimulate or excite a user.

19. The system of claim 11 , comprising phone display, an augmented reality display, or a virtual reality display to render images to stimulate or excite a user.

20. The system of claim 19 , comprising an object, a vibrator or a toy operating in conjunction with the phone display, the augmented reality display, or the virtual reality display to render images to stimulate or excite a user.
