MICROPHONE AND CAMERA SENSORS

According to the patent application, the AI-powered backpack “may include sensors such as a microphone and camera” and will be able to recognize “contextual voice commands” that include “a non-explicit reference to an object in an environment.”

The first diagram in the patent application shows the backpack being worn by a skier who is advised by the backpack to avoid a nearby off-limits area.

Another shows a person looking at a poster for an upcoming concert and buying tickets by asking the backpack.

WILL HAVE NAVI

The patent goes on to say that the product could include a GPS unit, a compass to detect the cardinal direction, a thermometer and a barometer.

According to the application, the backpack will also include biometric sensors that can measure heart rate, blood pressure and blood sugar levels. The backpack could even be aware of its own contents through RFID tags.

Microsoft also shows a skier wearing an AI backpack and asking if he can go down a certain path.

Thanks to GPS, the backpack uses its sensors to relay information to the AI, which then tells the skier which path to take.
