Abstract: An interface system and method for inputting control signals to an electronic device with a display and at least one input element. An application module is coupled with the input element and performs at least one task in response to the activation signal. The application module is additionally coupled to an information module and a control module. The information module receives at least one information image from the application module, and the control module receives at least one control image from the application module. Furthermore, the control image is associated with the input element. A rendering module coupled with the information module and the control module is used to create a compound image. The compound image created is a combination of the content image and control image such that the content image appears in front of the control image.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are related to navigating through content on a device that includes stored information that is organized according to channels. Content that is associated with the channels is selected and viewed on a display of the device by means of passive interaction when the device is in a glance-view operating state. The device periodically changes the display according to a playlist that indexes selected channel views associated with the current channel. The selected channel views are selected from the available channels according to a rule set that is associated with the channel. After every item in the playlist is processed, the playlist is updated according to application of the rule set. A customized channel may include references to other channels such that channel views associated with the customized channel correspond to channel views from other channels.

Abstract: A user interface for small computing devices. The user interface includes a display screen and a bezel encircling the display screen. The bezel is adapted to move relative to the display screen in one or more axes. For example, the bezel may be rotated about the display screen, pivoted about a pivot point, or moved in a planar direction. A cursor displayed within the display screen is responsive to movement of the bezel.
