Abstract:
A device includes a color display that includes a plurality of pixels, wherein a particular pixel of the plurality of pixels includes a first set of subpixels configured to emit a first set of colors; and a second set of subpixels configured to emit a second set of colors, wherein the second set of colors is offset from the first set of colors by a wavelength range. The device may further include logic configured to obtain an image; detect activation of a privacy mode; generate an inverse image of the obtained image; display the obtained image using the first set of subpixels; and display the generated inverse image using the second set of subpixels, in response to detecting the activation of the privacy mode.
Abstract:
The invention concerns an electronic wearable device (1) adapted to form a loop around a body part of a user and comprising an elongated member (10) being a part of the loop and a control unit (20). The elongated member (10) comprises an electroactive polymer (11), whereby the shape of the electroactive polymer is adapted to be changed by regulating a voltage applied to the electroactive polymer. The invention also concerns an electronic wireless communication system comprising the electronic wearable device and a mobile electronic communication device for wireless communication with the electronic wearable device.
Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium having instructions to analyze a characteristic of an ultrasonic signal that propagated on a body of a user of the computational device and effected by an on-body action, performed by the user, in an area in which the ultrasonic signal has propagated; determine one or more sides of the computational device at which the on-body action is performed relative to the computational device; and select an input based on an analysis of the ultrasonic signal and the one or more sides.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to the technical field of capacitive touch panels and discloses a touchpen which may be used in mobile phones, computers and other devices with touch panels for writing characters, letters and other symbols. In particular it relates to a capacitive touchpen 10 for inputting information into an electronic device 1 through touching of a capacitive touch panel 30, the capacitive pen comprising an elongated body member 11 comprising a conductive part 13 and a tip 12 disposed at one end of the body member 11 having a contact surface 14 for contacting the capacitive touch panel 30. The conductive part 13 is configured such that the distortion of the touch panel's electrostatic field caused by the conductive part 13 when changing the position of the touchpen 10 in relation to the capacitive touch panel 30, when the contact surface is kept in contact with the touch panel 30, is sufficient to register a change in capacitance by the capacitive touch panel 30. The disclosure further relates to methods for detecting the position of a touch pen as well as to an electronic device and a computer program.
Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium having instructions to analyze a characteristic of an ultrasonic signal that propagated on a face of a user of the computational device and effected by an on-body touch, by the user, in an area in which the ultrasonic signal has propagated, wherein the characteristic includes at least one of facial expression or contraction state of a facial muscle; select an input based on an analysis of the ultrasound event; and perform an action specified by the input.
Abstract:
Video data is captured by an imaging sensor. Motion is detected in the captured video data, e.g., by applying image analysis to different video frames of the captured video data. At least one subarea of an overall imaging area of the imaging sensor is determined. The subarea is determined to correspond to a position of the detected motion. In the determined subarea, a video capturing frame rate applied which is higher than a video capturing frame rate applied in other parts of the overall imaging area.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to a display comprising a transmissive portion and a reflective portion. The reflective portion presents at least one icon in an active mode and at least one notification in a sleep mode. The at least one icon is used for manipulating content presented on the transmissive portion. The at least one notification comprises a message notification, a time or date indicator, a weather indicator, a calendar, a photo, a logo, an event indicator, a moving image, or text. The reflective portion may be located above, below, or adjacent to the transmissive portion.
Abstract:
A headset equipped with one or more materials that can change in size to facilitate the wearing experience by the user. The change in size may provide for a more accurate fit for the user to prevent or reduce the likelihood of the headset inadvertently moving away from the user's ear (e.g., falling out from the ear canal). The changeable size may also be used to convey aspects of the received sound to provide a more powerful listening experience. The material may be constructed from an electroactive polymer that changes in size when stimulated by an electric field. The headset includes a controller with an input for a user to control the size of the material.
