Abstract:
A system of extending functionalities of a host device using a smart flash storage device comprises the host device having a host interface and configured to perform a specific function to generate a first set of data. The host device is coupled with a flash storage device. The flash storage device is configured to conform to a flash memory interface. A set of data generated by the host device is to be stored in flash memory storage of the flash storage device. A processor of the flash storage device is configured to run one or more user applications to process the set of data. The processor is to operate using power supplied by the host device.
Abstract:
A product includes a porcelain external wall, a touchscreen panel positioned behind the external wall, a graphical display panel positioned behind the external wall, graphical display logic to render a graphical user interface on the graphical display device to be projected through the porcelain external wall, and touch logic to interpret touch interactions with the touchscreen panel received through the porcelain external wall. The porcelain external wall at least partially obscures presentation of the graphical user interface.
Abstract:
An apparatus, system and other techniques for a smart card device, one or more host devices and a modular computing system comprising a smart card device and one or more host devices are described. For example, an apparatus or example smart card device may comprise one or more processor circuits, an interface coupled to the one or more processor circuits, the smart card device sized to be removably inserted into a host device and the interface configured to removably couple the smart card device to the host device, and logic, at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to configure the smart card device based on one or more characteristics of the host device. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
