    摘要: A portable electronic device includes a housing with a base. A touch-sensitive input assembly is spaced from and moveable relative to the base and a stopping arrangement limits movement of the touch-sensitive input assembly in the direction of the base. An actuating arrangement including a piezoelectric actuator is disposed between the touch-sensitive input assembly and the base for selectively receiving an applied voltage to thereby apply a force to the touch-sensitive input assembly. An accelerometer and functional components are housed within the housing. The functional components include a memory and a processor operably connected to the memory, the touch-sensitive input assembly, the piezoelectric actuator, and the accelerometer to execute a program stored in the memory to monitor signals from the accelerometer and, if a fall is detected based on the signals from the accelerometer, apply a negative voltage to the piezoelectric actuator causing reverse bending of the piezoelectric actuator to permit the stopping arrangement to limit movement of the touch-sensitive input assembly and thereby limit force exerted on the piezoelectric actuator between the touch-sensitive input assembly and the base.

    摘要: A touch screen display of an electronic device is calibrated. The method includes receiving input comprising selections of features registered at the touch screen display, filtering the input based on characteristics determined during the receiving to determine if the input is to be used for calibrating, for each input used for calibrating, determining a difference between registered touch location and a respective target for the selection and subtracting an offset from the difference, thereby providing remainders of differences for the selections, and calibrating by adjusting a prior calibration based on the remainders if the input is determined to be used for calibrating.

    摘要: An augmented-reality component associates augmented-reality keycaps with corresponding physical keycaps of a physical keyboard. The augmented-reality component can comprise, at least in part, augmented-reality glasses. By one approach the augmented-reality component associates the augmented-reality keycaps with the physical keycaps by visually overlaying, at least in part, the augmented-reality keycaps with corresponding ones of the physical keycaps. By one approach the keycaps of the physical keyboard can themselves selectively display informational content but can also selectively display one or more of the physical keycaps as being informationally blank to thereby present a substantially uniform blank screen upon which the augmented-reality keycap content can be presented.

    摘要: A keyboard comprises a plurality of keycap-bearing physically-discrete segments that are hingeably coupled to one another. When in a non-deployed configuration, the keycap-bearing physically-discrete segments are disposed on a back side of a corresponding housing such that the keys face outwardly away from that back side of the housing. When in a deployed configuration, the keycap-bearing physically-discrete segments are disposed substantially planar with respect to that same housing and face outwardly away from a front side of the apparatus.

    摘要: In one example, information is presented to a user through an electronic device in a non-visual manner. In this example, an informational event is received. Next, a determination is made if the informational event has been previously associated with a binaural sound sequence, the binaural sound sequence includes a user's nominal ear spacing for sound localization in a 3D space. The binaural sound sequence is presented to a multimedia port, in response to a binaural sound sequence being previously associated with the event. The localization in the 3D space using a binaural sound can be associated with importance, future times, source of information associated with the event, a person associated with the event, or a combination thereof.

    摘要: A handheld electronic device includes a housing, a flexible display associated with the housing, and an input portion linked to the flexible display. The input portion is movable relative to the housing between a first position and a second position. The flexible display has a first viewing area when the input portion is in the first position and a second viewing area when the input portion is in the second position. The second viewing area is smaller than the first viewing area.
