摘要:
A low power processor in a computer is kept energized in a suspend state in which a main processor of the computer is deenergized. The low power processor maintains a network connection by sending keepalive packets as required by the network communication protocol.
摘要:
Fingertip-sized discrete areas are provided on a slate computer and have different tactile characteristics than the remainder of the surface on which they are disposed. The discrete areas are arranged to mimic home keys of a keyboard and each discrete area corresponds to a respective home key. In this way, a user is given tactile feedback of when fingers are properly placed in the home position, with home key finger placement triggering the presentation of a full keyboard on screen. Other embodiments do not use tactilely distinct keys, with simultaneous placement of two or more fingers on the computer triggering display of the virtual keyboard.
摘要:
A method includes sensing two successive positional inputs input via a sensor display; determining a time difference between the two successive positional inputs; and rendering, to the sensor display, a graphic between the two successive positional inputs if the time difference does not exceed a time difference threshold. Various other apparatuses, systems, methods, etc., are also disclosed.
摘要:
An apparatus and method are presented for selecting a surface for user input. The apparatus includes an information handling device having at least two surfaces and at least two sensors, as least one of the sensors being associated with one or more of the surfaces, a determination module, and a selection module. The determination module determines a current surface that is likely facing a user. The selection module selects one or more sensors associated with the current surface for user input.
摘要:
A method, apparatus, and system are disclosed for modifying substitution cost. A substitution cost module calculates a substitution cost between a first character of a first string and a second character of a second string. A spatial vector module calculates a spatial vector between the first character and the second character from a location of a first key representing the first character on a keyboard and a location of a second key representing the second character on the keyboard. The spatial vector module modifies the substitution cost if the spatial vector is less than a spatial threshold. An edit distance module calculates an edit distance between the first string and the second string using the modified substitution cost for the substitution cost of substituting the first character with the second character.
摘要:
Applications are disclosed involving root measurable entities such as given a size of a garment from one manufacturer that fits, appropriate sizes for garments made by other manufacturers can be returned; also, given a particular computer network and a user-input desire for a particular task, optimum settings are returned.
摘要:
A system and apparatus for noticing and creating relational settings, actions, profiles, and tasks by tying resources to a location based on user behavior.
摘要:
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for acceleration initiated association. A peripheral knock module receives a first knock command from a first accelerometer of a peripheral device. The first knock command comprises a plurality of peripheral time stamps for a plurality of peripheral device accelerations. A peripheral identifier module creates a peripheral identifier comprising time interval values of time intervals between the peripheral time stamps. A broadcast module broadcasts a discovery signal with a signal identifier that comprises the peripheral identifier.
