摘要:
The present invention provides a portable electronic device. The device includes a first controller, a second controller, a mode switch unit, and a main controller. The mode switch unit is for a user to operate thereby generating a mode switch instruction. The main controller is for switching a work mode according to the mode switch instruction from the mode switch unit. When the mode switch unit generates a first mode switch instruction, the device enters a common work mode whereby the main controller activates the first controller and the second controller to be on standby; and when the mode switch unit generates a second mode switch instruction, the device enters a single work mode whereby the main controller activates only one of the first controller and the second controller to be on standby.

An auxiliary input device for menu control on a portable computing device is provided. The auxiliary input device includes a lighting unit, an optical lens, and an optical sensor. The lighting unit is for projecting light to a surface upon which the portable computing device is moved upon. The optical lens is for receiving reflected light from the surface and focusing the reflected light on the optical sensor. The optical sensor is for periodically capturing images of the reflected light and transmitting information of the images captured to the portable computing device. The images captured map a movement of the portable computing device. Accordingly, the portable computing device scrolls through a menu displayed thereon according to the images captured. A related method is also provided.

A computer system capable of playing multimedia files while in a power off mode or power-saving mode is provided. The computer system has a first operating system operated in a high power mode and a second operating system operated in a low power mode. The first operating system has a hard disk storing multimedia files and a central processing unit for running the first operating system. The second operating system has a non-volatile storage unit consuming substantially less power than the hard disk, for storing multimedia files; a multimedia playing unit for playing the multimedia files of the non-volatile storage unit; and a microcontroller having less computing performance than the CPU and consuming substantially less power than the CPU, for running the second operating system when the first operating system is in a power off mode or power-saving mode. A related method for operating the computer system is also provided.

A touch control method used for an electronic device storing a relationship table recording a mapping relationship between handwritten touch input and a number of commands includes the following steps. Display an electronic file. Sense a touch trace of a user on the displayed electronic file and generating a trigger signal if the touch trace forms a closed loop having an enclosed region. Sense handwritten touch input by the user within the enclosed region and generate associated signals. Recognize a circled path having an enclosed region as input by the user according to the generated signals. Determine a command associated with the sensed handwritten touch input according to the relationship table in response to the trigger signal. Retrieve content of the displayed electronic file displayed within the enclosed region. And execute the retrieved command to the retrieved content. An electronic device using the method is also provided.

A bus stop includes a storage unit, a communicating unit, a display unit, and a control unit. The communicating unit communicates with a server which is in communication with a plurality of buses, a plurality of stops which the buses will pass, and current locations of the buses. The display unit displays at least one route consisting of a plurality of bus stops including the bus stop. The control unit generates a request signal carrying the location of the bus stop to the server. The server determines current locations of the buses on a route which includes the bus stop, compares the real-time locations with the location of the bus stop to select a nearest bus travelling towards the bus stop. The display unit display a mark marking the bus stop. A related system is also provided.
