Abstract:
In one example a electronic device comprises a housing, at least one heat generating component disposed within the housing, at least one internal heat dissipation device positioned proximate the at least one heat generating component, and a thermal interface defined in at least a portion of the housing to allow direct thermal contact between the heat dissipation device and an external heat dissipation device. Other examples may be described.

Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for processing a video stream to reduce platform power by employing a stepped and distributed pipeline process, wherein CPU-intensive processing is selectively performed. The techniques are particularly well-suited for hand-based navigational gesture processing. In one example case, for instance, the techniques are implemented in a computer system wherein initial threshold detection (image disturbance) and optionally user presence (hand image) processing components are proximate to or within the system's camera, and the camera is located in or proximate to the system's primary display. In some cases, image processing and communication of pixel information between various processing stages which lies outside a markered region is suppressed. In some embodiments, the markered region is aligned with, a mouse pad or designated desk area or a user input device such as a keyboard. Pixels evaluated by the system can be limited to a subset of the markered region.
Abstract:
Systems and methods may receive data from a data interface of a base platform, convert the data into an analog signal and modulate the analog signal onto a direct current (DC) power line coupled to a connector of the base platform. Additionally, the modulated analog signal may be received from a DC power line coupled to a connector of a tablet platform, wherein the modulated analog signal is converted to a digital signal and demodulated to recover the data. In one example, the data includes user input data associated with an input device including one or more of a mouse, a keyboard, a keypad or a touchpad.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus relating to thermal throttling of WiDi (Wireless Display) video stream resolution are described. In an embodiment, logic generates one or more signals to cause a processor to a change the resolution and/or frame rate of a video stream in response to input from one or more sensors and one or more values. The one or more signals can also cause wireless display logic to modify a compression level of the video stream received from the processor prior to transmission of a compressed version of the video stream to a display device. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
