Abstract: Embodiments described herein enable remote control of a mobile device. A representation of a screen displayed on a mobile device is obtained by an emulating device. The emulating device transmits the representation of the screen to a first computing device. The emulating device receives, from the first computing device, a control command comprising instructions to perform an action with respect to the mobile device. The emulating device converts the control command to an input command based on an input device emulated by the emulating device. The emulating device transmits the input command to the mobile device. In a further aspect, control of the mobile device by external devices is restricted to input devices capable of interfacing with an accessibility interface of the mobile device to provide input user interface commands. In this further aspect, the emulating device interfaced with the accessibility interface.

Abstract: A game device includes a storage unit and a control unit configured to execute a game program. The control unit acquires biological information indicating physical feature of a user operating the game device, computes a biological parameter of the user based on the biological information, and stores the biological parameter in the storage unit. The control unit then computes, in accordance with the biological parameter stored in the storage unit, a property parameter that determines a property of a character generated by the game program.

Abstract: A network system, method, and computer program product support automatically distributing virtual gamepads customized based on frequency of use of particular controls for a game. The network system connects, via a communication subsystem of a network system, to a communication network. The network system associates a game application with a first virtual gamepad configuration including virtual controls. The network system stores, in network memory, customized versions of the first virtual gamepad configuration including a second virtual gamepad configuration having modified virtual controls that are adjusted in size relative and/or spatially repositioned based on frequency of use of the virtual controls during detected interactions with the game application by user device(s). The network system transmits the first and/or the second virtual gamepad configurations to an electronic device for presenting on a touch screen display while executing the game application and presenting a game screen on an external display.

Abstract: A game processing device includes a scene determination portion, a sound recognition portion, a conformity determination portion, and an action controller. The scene determination portion determines whether a scene is an input scene in which sound input information can be input. The sound recognition portion, at an input scene, recognizes sound that is input as the sound input information. The conformity determination portion determines a degree of conformity between (a) the sound input information that is recognized and (b) reference information. The action controller changes an action effect according to the degree of conformity.

Abstract: Docking platforms formed in one of the largest-surface-area surfaces of mobile electronic devices. Such a docking platform may comprise a docking accessory cavity having a docking connection system comprising one or more docking connectors formed within the cavity, and optionally two or more electrical contacts within the cavity, the contacts electrically connected to electronics within the electronic device and constructed and arranged to allow electrical connection to detachable docking accessories. The docking connection system is operable to form detachable attachments to multiple independent docking accessories simultaneously. The cavities of the docking platforms are shaped to accommodate a broad range of docking accessories that are specially adapted to sit in a generally flush manner with the back surface of the mobile electronic device while attached to the docking connectors. One type of accessory forms an assembly with an expandable accordion attached to the docking platform.
