Abstract:
A system for enabling the viewing, distributing and/or manipulation of stored data or applications on a host device when the host device is in a power-save, dormant or other semi-active state. In one embodiment, a peripheral device is provided which runs its own native operating system. When the peripheral device is connected to the host device, which is running a different native operating system, the peripheral device is capable of sharing files that are stored on the host device, thereby permitting the viewing, editing, transferring or other manipulation of the files. In another embodiment, a wireless modem or similar device is integrated into the host device. When the host device enters a power-save or dormant state, a hand-off occurs to the wireless modem such that the files contained on the host device remain accessible.
Abstract:
Medicinal container bags are presented. Bags can include openers capable of sealing an opening of the bag. Disclosed bags further comprise electronic assemblies configured to detect opening or closing events as the openers move along the rims of the bag opening. The assemblies can compile usage data based on opener movement, and then provide the data to remote monitoring systems.
Abstract:
A system for wireless communication comprises a first communication device having a first interface for interfacing with a host device and a second interface; and a second communication device configured to be coupled to the second interface of the first communication device. The first communication device and the second communication device, when coupled, form a substantially integrated device.
Abstract:
A system and method by which audio clips, video clips and/or combination audio-video clips may be exhibited when a device is connected to a local host. According to various embodiments, one or more A/V clips reside on a device. When the device is operatively connected to a host, the A/V clips are uploaded to the host and are run on the host. A service carrier or provider is therefore capable of providing its own unique branding to the end user in an animated form when a connection is made, or to provide other information to the end user through the use of A/V clips.
