Abstract: A support for a hand held phone or computing device is formed by a curved, elongated projection extending from a first end engagement with the phone or computing device to a distal end extending a distance past a portion of the perimeter edge of the phone or computing device. A curve formed on a first surface of the projection is adapted to contact the curved surface of a finger of a user placed against the perimeter edge of the phone or computing device to support it during use. The first end engagement can be formed as a permanent, rotational or removable engagement.

Abstract: A hanging garment wrinkle remover is provided having a support member engageable with a garment. The support member is formed of a first member component in a biased removable engagement against or toward a second member component. With a garment engaged between the first and second member components gravity acting on the weight of the support member removes garment wrinkles over time. A hanger having slots to engage the support member and support the garment can also be provided.

Abstract: An adaptive user interface device capable of implementing multiple modes of input and configuration may adapt to current user inputs, and may include configuration changes. In an aspect, an adaptive user interface device may be configured for a finger sensing in a touchpad mode, and configured for stylus sensing in a digital tablet mode. In another aspect, surface features of the adaptive user interface device may change shape, such as by raising buttons in response to entering a keyboard or keypad mode. Various mechanisms may be used for raising buttons, and may enable presenting buttons in a variety of shapes and locations on the interface. The configuration of the adaptive user interface device may depend upon the user actions and user identity. Configuration modes may be organized according to many levels enabling a single user interface to support a large number of input options functionality within a limited surface area.

Abstract: Automatic identification of media content is at least partially based upon visually capturing a still or video image of media content being presented to a user via another device. The media content can be further refined by determining location of the user, capturing an audio portion of the media content, date and time of the capture, or profile/behavioral characteristics of the user. Identifying the media content can require (1) distinguishing a rectangular illumination the corresponds to a video display; (2) decoding a watermark presented within the displayed image/video; (3) characterizing the presentation sufficiently for determining a particular time stamp or portion of a program; and (4) determining user setting preferences for viewing the program (e.g., close captioning, aspect ratio, language). Thus identified, the media content appropriately formatted can be received for continued presentation on a user interface of the mobile device.

Abstract translation: 媒体内容的自动识别至少部分地基于视觉地捕获通过另一设备呈现给用户的媒体内容的静态或视频图像。 可以通过确定用户的位置，捕获媒体内容的音频部分，捕获的日期和时间，或用户的个人资料/行为特征来进一步改进媒体内容。 识别媒体内容可能需要（1）区分对应于视频显示的矩形照明; （2）对显示的图像/视频内的水印进行解码; （3）充分表征表示以确定特定的时间戳或节目的一部分; 和（4）确定用于观看节目的用户设置偏好（例如，紧密的字幕，宽高比，语言）。 因此，可以接收适当格式化的媒体内容，以便在移动设备的用户界面上继续呈现。

Abstract: Methods, devices and systems enable prioritizing mobile device access to a communication network during periods of reduced network availability, such as during emergency situations. The mobile device may be configured to detect the existence of an emergency situation locally, on the mobile device. Upon recognizing an emergency situation the mobile device may collect information from various components and/or sensors of the mobile device. Using the collected information, the mobile device may compute a priority for accessing the communication network. Using the computed priority, the mobile device may attempt to access the communication network in a manner that staggers access attempts among all mobile devices to reduce network congestion.

Abstract: A system and method to respond to detection of blurry regions of interest in an image are disclosed. One embodiment includes a region locator to locate one or more regions of interest in an image captured by a digital image capturing device. The embodiment also includes a blurry region detector for detecting whether a region of interest is blurry. A blurry region indicator indicates to a user when a blurry region has been detected. When a blurry region is detected, a display interface provides an enlarged image of the detected blurry region. Some embodiments provide recommendations on how to capture the scene again with improved results.

Abstract: Methods and systems implement touch sensors or force sensitive materials disposed on the case of a computing device in order to enable user input gestures to be performed on portions of the device case. The force sensitive elements may generate an electrical signal in response to a gesture, such as a tap, squeeze, swipe or twist. The properties of the generated electrical signal may be compared to various reference templates to recognize particular input gestures. The force sensitive elements may operate in conjunction with more traditional input methods, such as touch-screen display and electromechanical buttons. By enabling user input gestures on the case of computing devices, the various aspects permit one hand operation of the devices including intuitive gestures that do not require the users focused attention to accomplish. Thus the various aspects may enable users to utilize their computing devices in situations not suitable to conventional user input technologies.
