摘要:
Embodiments relate to systems for, and methods of, compensating for movement of a loudspeaker relative to a user's head, where the loudspeaker is present in a mobile device. Example systems and methods produce (300) an electrical signal representative of audio, determine (302) a distance between the device and the user's head and automatically set (304) a gain of the electrical signal in accordance with the distance. Example systems and methods also output (306) audio corresponding to the electrical signal with the gain.
摘要:
A portable electronic device comprising an external surface of a user interface, a piezoelectric transducer coupled to the external surface, and a controller. The piezoelectric transducer generates an electrical output originating at the piezoelectric transducer in response to mechanical actuation applied at the external surface. The controller performs an electronic function of the portable electronic device in response to the piezoelectric transducer generating the electrical output.

Embodiments relate to apparatuses for, and methods of, compensating for distance 206 and velocity present between a microphone and user's 202 mouth. Such devices and methods allow compensation for varying amplitudes of sound pressure received at a the due to a varying distance 206 between a microphone and an originating user's 202 mouth. Additionally, the devices and methods may also compensate for pitch shifts due to a Doppler effect caused by a non-zero velocity of a microphone relative to a user's 202 mouth.

A user computer device is provided that comprises a temperature sensitive touchscreen having a temperature sensitive user interface comprising multiple thermal energy emitter/detector devices, such as thermocouples. The multiple thermal energy emitter/detector devices are capable both of detecting thermal energy and emitting thermal energy. The temperature sensitive user interface generates thermal patterns that may be transferred to other thermally sensitive electronic devices or that may be used to authenticate the user computer device. The user computer device also can detect and thermally communicate with a thermal energy docking station and, based on thermal recognition, activate applications displayed on the temperature sensitive touchscreen. Further, the user computer device can auto-bias a temperature of the temperature sensitive user interface in order to better assure proper operation of the temperature sensitive user interface in all operating conditions.
摘要:
An active stylus or a method performed by an active stylus for interacting with a mobile device, wherein the mobile device has at least one sensor (e.g., a thermocouple junction), and wherein the stylus has at least one signal source (e.g., an analog heat source) that produces at least one signal (e.g., at least one analog temperature signal), wherein the at least one signal is configured to be detectable by the at least one sensor of the mobile device. The stylus also has at least one signal adjustment mechanism for changing the at least one signal and also has at least one transmitter (e.g., thermocouple junction) configured to transmit the at least one signal for receipt by the at least one sensor of the mobile device.
摘要:
Disclosed are electronic devices and methods of electronic devices having a housing including a wireless actuator without an electrical interface, the wireless actuator located on the housing, the wireless actuator being configured to provide tactile feedback and configured to generate an acoustic signal with a unique acoustic signature upon actuation. Included is at least one accelerometer being configured to receive a mechanical or acoustic stimulus and/or an acoustic signal which can include an impulse response being a brief non-periodic and/or non-repeating signal such as a tap or a repeating signal such as a tone, to generate an identifying signal. Also included is a processor configured to receive an identifying signal to generate a control signal based on the received acoustic signal correlated to the acoustic signature. The control signal can provide initiation of any function or application of the device.
摘要:
An electronic device having a user interface on which selectable operation indicators are navigated wherein each operational indicator is associated with a corresponding application or other selectable item. The operational indicators are sequentially identified, in a specified order and for a specified time interval, in response to a first input at the user interface. Selection occurs in response to a second input at the user interface during the corresponding time interval. Such selection may, for example, launch an application or cause the display of a submenu or perform some other function
