Various methods for determining an active input area are provided. One example method includes acquiring frame buffer data defining an image area that has been refreshed and detecting a cursor within the frame buffer data. Detecting the cursor may include determining that dimensions of the image area match dimensions of a previously acquired image area associated with a successful cursor detection, and the example method may further include directing transmission of coordinates and dimensions of the image area to a remote environment. Similar and related example methods and example apparatuses are also provided.

An apparatus, method, and computer program product are described that provide for a replicated user interface, including a replicated active display area and a replicated boundary area, such that the replicated user interface can recognize the same types of user inputs that are recognized by a remote user interface, and the same operations may be executed upon receipt of such inputs. The apparatus can establish a communications link with the remote user interface and determine whether the remote user interface is configured to detect a user input at least partially received in a boundary area outside an active display area of the remote user interface. A replicated active display area and a replicated boundary area may then be provided for in response to a determination that the remote user interface is configured to detect a user input at least partially received in the boundary area of the remote user interface.

A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided to enable the provision of a mechanism by which an orientation of information presented may be maintained based upon a use state of a device, regardless of a physical display orientation. A method may include determining a physical orientation, determining whether the physical display orientation warrants a change of orientation of information presented, and determining whether a use state precludes a change of the orientation of the information presented based upon the physical display orientation. The method may further maintain the orientation of the information presented in response to a physical display orientation that warrants a change of the orientation of the information presented in an instance in which the use state is determined to preclude the change of the orientation of the information presented based on the physical display orientation.

An apparatus, method, and computer program product are described that determine a position of a touch component of a user input received outside a touch sensitive area of a touch surface by correlating a position of the force component and a position of a touch component of a portion of the user input received within the touch sensitive area with a position of the force component of a portion of the user input received outside the touch sensitive area. In this way, the position of a touch component of the user input received outside the touch sensitive area, where the touch surface is not capable via hardware to detect the position of the touch component, may be determined, and operations may be executed based on the position of the touch component that is determined.

Mobile devices provide a variety of techniques for presenting messages from sources to a user. However, when the message pertains to the presence of the user at a location, the available communications techniques may exhibit deficiencies, e.g., reliance on the memory of the source and/or user of the existence and content of a message between its initiation and the user's visit to the location, or reliance on the communication accessibility of the user, the device, and/or the source during the user's location visit. Presented herein are techniques for enabling a mobile device, at a first time, to receive a request to present an audio message during the presence of the user at a location; and, at a second time, detecting the presence of the user at the location, and presenting the audio message to the user, optionally without awaiting a request from the user to present the message.

Various methods for providing data entry content to a remote environment are provided. One example method includes receiving, at a device, a data entry field selection message notifying that a selection of a data entry field has occurred at a remote device, modifying a focus of a user interface of the device to the data entry field, retrieving current data content of the data entry field, and causing an indication to be provided to the remote device informing the remote device of the current data content of the data entry field to enable the remote device to display the current data content of the data entry field in a data entry input interface. Similar and related example methods and example apparatuses are also provided.

An apparatus, method, and computer program product are described that provide for a user to share content with other users who are proximate to his or her device in a simple and intuitive manner. In some embodiments, a “wave” gesture is used to identify users of devices that nearby to the source user's device with whom the source user may communicate, such as to share content. Upon receiving a first orientation input, a scanning mode may be initiated during which one or more devices proximate the apparatus are determined. A second orientation input that is different from the first orientation input, and the scanning mode may be terminated in response. As a result, a communication with at least one selected device of the one or more devices determined to be proximate the apparatus may be facilitated.

A method for communicating one or more offers to one or more users determines a distance between each of the plurality of users and one or more merchants, based at least in part on a first set of data, wherein the first set of data comprises information related to a plurality of users and a plurality of locations, each of the plurality of locations corresponding to one or more of the plurality of users, correlates the distance between each of the users and the one or more merchants to one or more offers, wherein the offers are intended to entice one or more users to travel to one or more locations corresponding with the one or more merchants, determines to which of the plurality of users to make offers, communicates one or more offers to the determined users based at least in part on the correlated distance between each of the users and the one or more merchants, and receives, communicated from a mobile device of a user, acceptance or redemption of one or more of the offers.
摘要:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to methods, systems, apparatus and computer program products are described herein for communicating offers to customers based in part on the distance from the customer to the merchant's location after receiving an indication of a point of transaction event by receiving an indication of a point-of-transaction event, collecting positioning information related to the customer, determining the distance between the customer and the merchant, correlating the distance between the customer and the merchant to offers to entice the customer to travel to the merchant's location and communicating the offers to the customer.
