An approach is provided for modifying the image content of returned images resulting from a search query. The portions of each image that is unrelated to the search query is omitted or other wise obscured so as to reduce the amount of image data in the search results. Additionally, related advertising, hyperlinks, or other object can be combined with the image data to enhance the information returned to the user.

An apparatus, method and computer program product are provided for differentiating between and transmitting different levels of information associated with an object or file depending upon a number of tactile inputs detected. In particular, a user can define a number of levels (e.g., of privacy, of detail, etc.) associated with items of information making up objects or files stored on his or her device. The user can then indicate which level of information (i.e., which items of information of the object or file) he or she would like to transmit by using a different number of fingers (or other selection devices) to select the object or file. The electronic device may, in response, determine the number of fingers (or other selection devices) used and then transmit only the corresponding portions (e.g., items of information) of the selected object or file.

The present invention is directed to a respiratory helmet. The helmet is designed to provide protection to a user's cranium area. The helmet also has a visor designed to provide protection to the user's face area, an air intake system, and a parallel elliptical rail system. The visor can be positioned on the helmet, in front of the user's face area, and any position in between. The area between the visor, when the visor is positioned in front of the user's face area and the face area is called the breathing zone. The visor has at least two wheels, a top side and a bottom side wherein the bottom side is positioned closer to the user's chin when the visor is positioned in front of the user's face. The air intake system has an intake unit that receives a gaseous medium from a gaseous medium supply system or the ambient air into the helmet, and the intake unit directs the gaseous medium toward the breathing zone. The parallel elliptical rail system allows the visor to move in an elliptical motion. Each rail receives at least one wheel of the visor, and is designed to decrease the accumulation of particulates on the rail.
摘要:
An apparatus, method and computer program where the apparatus: includes at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program instructions; wherein the at least one memory and the computer program instructions are configured to, with the at least one processor, enable the apparatus to: determine fluctuations in a signal provided by a capacitive sensor of a touch pad; wherein if the fluctuations are below a threshold the processor is configured to determine that an object is touching the touch pad.
摘要:
An apparatus, method, computer program and user interface wherein the method comprises: a controller configured to determine locations of interest within a predetermined distance of a first location; a display configured to simultaneously present a map, a first bounded area of the map and a list of the determined locations of interest within the first bounded area; a user input device configured to enable a user to make a user input, wherein; the controller is configured to detect a user input and, in response to the detection of the user input, control the display to present a second bounded area of the map and update the list of the determined locations of interest so that locations of interest within the second bounded area are presented in the list.
摘要:
A haptic/tactile input in which the behavior and/or appearance of the mechanical user interface input is configured to be adapted to the function and context of an electronic device to give feedback and cues to the user. The mechanical input for example, buttons, sliders, levers, and other input devices are made appear on the surface of the user interface when needed.

An apparatus for determining interactions with annotations to objects based upon real-world affordances of the objects in audio-visual media data may include a processing element configured to receive image data describing one or more objects having real-world affordances, to identify the one or more objects having real-world affordances, and to create one or more semiotic regions by associating with the one or more objects interaction rules corresponding to the respective real-world affordances of the one or more objects.
