Abstract:
Method and system for gait controlled operations of a device including one or more gait sensors (22) for sensing a pattern of self-propelled movement of a person, which defines a gait. The gait controlled device (10) includes at least one data processor (40) configured for determining one or more first parameters which define a first gait of an authenticated person based on a first output of the one or more gait sensors. The data processor uses a second output of the one or more gait sensors (22) to determine one or more second parameters which define a second gait of a second person. Thereafter, the data processor compares the first parameters to the second parameters to determine if the second gait resulted from the authenticated person. The data processor is configured to perform at least one action responsive to the comparing.
Abstract:
Control of multiple functions of an electronic device is provided by using a single control element (102) including a switch body (312) adjustable between multiple switch positions, a primary actuator (302) with lateral (302b) and distal surface (302a) portions extending from the switch body and configured for adjusting the switch body between the switch positions, and a pressure sensor (314) operable via an activation force at the lateral surfaces of the primary actuator. A first function can be controlled responsive to motion of the primary actuator during an activation of the pressure sensor. Additionally, a second function can be controlled responsive to the motion of the primary actuator of the control element exclusive of the activation of the pressure sensor. Further, a third function can be controlled in responsive to activation of the pressure sensor for at least a first period of time exclusive of motion of the primary actuator.
Abstract:
Systems (100) and methods (400) for controlling functions of a Radio Transceiver (206, 208). At least one function is controlled in response to: a depression of a center of an elongated roller of a control element (102, 300); a depression of a first peripheral edge portion (FPEP) of the elongated roller (302) for a first period of time; a depression of a second peripheral edge portion (SPEP) of the elongated roller for a second period of time; a rotation of the elongated roller around a central axis thereof; a depression of the FPEP (352) for a third period of time that is longer than the first period of time; and/or a depression of a SPEP (354) for a fourth period of time that is longer than the second period of time.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a system, apparatus and method for an audible indicator of a quality of a received digital radio transmission. After receiving a digital radio transmission in a digital radio receiver, the quality of the received digital radio transmission is detected. Then an audible communication from the received digital radio transmission is decoded. Then an audible indicator is superimposed onto the audible communication, to form a composite audible signal. Finally, an amplitude of the audible indicator is dynamically adjusted relative to an amplitude of the audible communication, responsive to a quality of the received digital radio transmission.

Abstract:
Systems (100) and methods (800, 900) for communicating information over a network (104). The methods involve receiving group call voice data (GCVD) communicated from a first communication device (102, 504, 704) and addressed to a second communication device (SCD). The GCVD (410, 512, 610, 712) is processed to convert it to text data in response to a condition occurring at SCD (106, 108, 112). The condition is selected from a group consisting of an audio mute condition and a concurrent voice communication condition. The speech-to-text conversion is performed at network equipment (114) and/or SCD. The text data is processed to output text defined thereby on a user interface (230) of SCD. The text data can also be processed to identify at least one word or phrase in the text defined thereby. An indicator can be output using the user interface if the word or phrase is identified in the text.
