Abstract:
Devices such as electronic book readers, televisions, and so forth may use reflective display technologies. Described herein are devices and methods for ambient light sensing for use in conjunction with displays. A light guide panel is coupled to a light sensor to measure ambient light impinging on the light guide panel. Where the display is reflective, the light guide panel may be configured to provide for illumination of the display.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are described for determining whether any one of three or more proximity test conditions is met using measurements from a plurality of proximity electrodes located relative to an antenna of a user device and reducing a transmit power level to be used by the antenna when any one of the three or more proximity test conditions is met. A user device obtains measurements from the proximity electrodes, checks the three or more proximity test conditions, and instructs a transmit power manager to reduce a transmit power level to transmit data when any one of the three or more proximity test conditions is met.
