Abstract: An input mechanism, such as a crown, detects amounts of applied force. In various examples, an assembly including an input mechanism has an enclosure; a stem coupled to the enclosure such that the stem is rotatable, translatable, and transversely moveable with respect to the enclosure; a sensor, coupled between the stem and the housing, to which force is transferred when the stem moves with respect to the housing; and a processing unit coupled to the sensor. The processing unit is operable to determine a measurement of the force, based on a signal from the sensor.

Abstract: An external digital crown for a smartwatch can be implemented using a computer. A smartwatch having a display can receive an electronic cue from a digital crown. The electronic cue can related to a tactile event on the digital crown from a user. The digital crown can be positioned contiguously with the watch. The electronic cue can be analyzed to relate the tactile event to a movement of an indicator on the display for a selection on the display, and a selection can be initiated on the display based on the analysis of the electronic cue.

Abstract: Provided is a method for unlocking by use of a knob. The method is applied to an electronic device provided with an operation knob. The method includes the following steps: detecting (1) an action of the operation knob in a screen locked state in real time; and starting (2) an unlocking program in response to rotation of the operation knob: calculating the rotational circumferential distance of the operation knob along the current rotational direction, determining whether the rotational circumferential distance of the operation knob reaches a preset circumferential distance, controlling the electronic device to unlock in response to the rotational circumferential distance of the operation knob reaching the preset circumferential distance, and unlocking failed and returning to step (1) in response to the rotational circumferential distance of the operation knob not reaching the preset circumferential distance.

Abstract: A system for determining relevant information based on user interactions may include a processor configured to receive data and associated relevance information from a data source and a set of signals describing a current environment of a user or historical user behavior information in which the data source being local to a computing device. The processor may be further configured to provide, using a machine learning model, a relevance score for each of multiple data items based at least in part on the received relevance information and the set of signals. The processor may be further configured to sort the data items based on a ranking of each relevance score for each data item. The processor may be further configured to provide, as output, the multiple data items based at least in part on the ranking.
