Abstract:
A digital microscope system configured for use with the built in camera of a mobile device is provided. The digital microscope system has a lens and an advanced lighting system incorporated into a case designed to fit a particular mobile device, where the case positions the optics of the case over the lens of the built in camera and the camera built in flash. When combined with an application program (app) running on the mobile device held within the case, the optics of the case combined with the built in camera of the mobile device becomes a powerful digital microscope with a user adjustable magnification. In a specific embodiment the adjustable magnification ranges from 1x up to 200x optical magnification.
Abstract:
A handheld electronic device protective case includes a shell with a retention structure attached to the shell. The retention structure is capable or retaining an e-vaping article, where the e-vaping article is a blister pack or an e-vaping item. The retention structure can be a storage portion with a holding member that slideably receives and retains a blister pack, and a locking member that impedes the blister pack from sliding from the storage portion. The retention structure can also include a cavity or a compartment that receives and retains a cylindrically- shaped e-vaping item.
Abstract:
The present invention describes a common case that can hold, protect, and recharge both one or more electronic cigarettes and/or electronic cigars (e-cigs) and either a cell phone or a tablet computer simultaneously with a single external battery charger that plugs into a port on the common case. Once one or more e-cigs are integrated in this way using a common case with a cell phone or tablet, a number additional features can be achieved that make the user's daily routine easier, more productive, and manageable. An example of such feature is to share the total battery power available in his/her cell phone or tablet with the battery power in his/her e-cig so that battery power in the e-cig can be used as a supplemental power source to sustain operation of the cell phone on days when call activity is high and smoking activity is low (or vice versa).
Abstract:
A personal communication device provided with means for the detection of potential harmful radiation emitted by the device and which is provided with a data memory module that records the characteristics of the data detected to provide real time data for the study of potentially harmful radiation.
Abstract:
A scent release system includes scent cartridges containing temperature activated scent media. The scent cartridges may bear machine-readable identification that specifies which scent media are carried by the cartridge. The scent release system can be controlled by a timer to initiate a phase change of the scent media to selectively release one or more scents, followed by a reverse phase change to selectively stop release of the respective scents. A scent release system in conjunction with a mobile electronic device, such as a smart phone, allows sending and receiving scent messages. The scent release system can be built into a case for the mobile electronic device, eliminating the need for a separate unit. A private scent delivery device in the form of a headset can be worn by users of a scent release system or by scent message recipients.
Abstract:
Portable electronic device for measuring a physical quantity, including at least one sensor device that measures and converts the value, or variation, of a physical quantity into an analog electrical signal and an electronic device, which acquires the analog electrical signal, converts it into digital format and calculates the engineering value in real time, comprising two distinct physical units operationally connected in a dismountable manner, of which: • the first of said physical units is a smart mobile electronic device; • and wherein the second of said physical units comprises said at least one electrical/electronic sensor device, a jack connector corresponding to said microphone connecting port on said first unit, and electrical/electronic means that convert said analog electrical signal, generated by said at least one sensor device, into a frequency value and transmit it to said output jack connector.
Abstract:
Embodiments relate generally to electrical and electronic hardware, audio equipment, wired and wireless network communications, data processing, and computing devices, including mobile and wearable computing devices. More specifically, devices, techniques, and computer-readable media for mobile device speaker control are described. An example of a method can include initiating proximity detection, establishing a first communication link between a speaker box and a mobile computing device, and receiving a first identifier via the first communication link from the mobile computing device. A method can further include detecting a packet via a second communication link and determining the mobile computing device is in a range of proximity of the speaker box a first point in time. Also, the method can include transferring control of the speaker box to the mobile computing device as a function of the range of proximity.
