20110260983 | PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING SAME - A method includes determining first respective values representative of forces applied by a plurality of actuators to a touch-sensitive input device of an electronic device, controlling the actuators to cause the actuators to change the forces applied to the touch-sensitive input device, determining second respective values representative of the forces applied by the actuators to the touch-sensitive input device, and determining when there is a fault based on a change from the first respective values to the second respective values. | 10-27-2011 |
20110279382 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING TACTILE TOUCH-SENSITIVE DISPLAY AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING SAME - A method of controlling an electronic device having a touch-sensitive display includes determining a first value representative of force applied by an actuator to a touch-sensitive input device of an electronic device, controlling the actuator to modulate the force on the touch-sensitive input device for providing tactile feedback, determining a second value representative of force applied by the actuator to the touch-sensitive input device, and adjusting control of the actuator to adjust a subsequent force applied by the actuator based on a difference between the first value and the second value. | 11-17-2011 |
20130005413 | MOBILE WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE WITH PROXIMITY BASED TRANSMITTED POWER CONTROL AND RELATED METHODS - A mobile wireless communications device may include a portable housing, at least one antenna carried by the portable housing, and at least one capacitive proximity sensor carried by the portable housing and configured to sense proximity of a human user adjacent thereto. The mobile wireless communications device may also include a wireless transmitter carried by the portable housing and coupled to the at least one antenna, and a controller carried by the portable housing and coupled to the wireless transmitter and the at least one capacitive proximity sensor. The controller may be configured to cooperate with the wireless transmitter to adjust transmitted power output from the at least one antenna based upon the at least one capacitive proximity sensor. | 01-03-2013 |
20130221855 | CONTROLLING BACKLIGHT OF A PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A method of controlling a backlight for illuminating an electronic device, includes: receiving, at a processor of the electronic device, a first input indicating a first user-specified light level of the backlight, the first user-specified light level of the backlight being in association with a first ambient light level, receiving, at the processor, a second input indicating a second user-specified light level of the backlight, the second user-specified light level of the backlight being in association with a second ambient light level, determining a current ambient light level, and controlling the backlight as a function of the current ambient light level, the first user-specified light level of the backlight and the second user-specified light level of the backlight. | 08-29-2013 |

20130163980 | APPARATUS, AND ASSOCIATED METHOD, FOR AFFIXING EXTERNAL CAMERA LENS TO DEVICE HAVING CAMERA FUNCTIONALITY - An assembly for a device having camera functionality, such as a portable wireless device, provides for affixation of an external camera lens to the device. A magnetic coupler is positioned at the device. The magnetic coupler exerts magnetic forces that affix the external camera lens in position. Removal forces in excess of the magnetic forces are applied to remove the external lens out of the affixation at the device. | 06-27-2013 |

20080309455 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A MOVEABLE BARRIER OPERATOR - In some of these approaches, a first fingerprint of a first user is stored in a memory and the transmission of an activation code is authorized. Subsequently, the first fingerprint is re-sensed and authenticated and a second fingerprint of a second user is responsively sensed and stored. The activation code is transmitted to the moveable barrier operator upon subsequent authenticating of the second fingerprint. Subsequently, the second fingerprint is re-sensed and authenticated and a third fingerprint of a third user is responsively sensed and stored. The activation code is transmitted to the moveable barrier operator upon subsequent authenticating of the third fingerprint. | 12-18-2008 |
20080310689 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A MOVEABLE BARRIER OPERATOR - The presence of a first human fingerprint at the fingerprint scanner. The first human fingerprint is analyzed to determine whether the first human fingerprint has been previously learned by the barrier movement operator. When the first human fingerprint is determined to be previously learned, a first command is sent to actuate a moveable barrier operator. Within a predetermined time period after the first human fingerprint has been determined to be previously learned, the presence of a second human fingerprint is sensed at the fingerprint scanner. Without analyzing the second fingerprint, a second command is sent to actuate the moveable barrier operator. The first fingerprint and the second fingerprint may be from the same or different users. | 12-18-2008 |
