20080284739 | Human Interface Device - An input device may detect an input on an input device. The input may be compared to stored inputs to determine if the input is related to one of the stored inputs where the stored inputs can be user defined. If the input is related to one of the stored inputs, an action may be executed related to the stored input. If the input is not related to one of the stored inputs or is not recognized, the steps of the method may be repeated. The actions associated with different gestures may be defined by the user. | 11-20-2008 |
20090002396 | Navigating Lists Using Input Motions - A method of navigating items on a display on a computing device with a touch sensitive input device is disclosed. Similar to a bike wheel, the list of items will rotate in relation to the velocity of the input applied including speed up, slow down, stop and change directions. | 01-01-2009 |
20090004973 | Activity Illumination - A method to indicate that a first device is in communication with a second device is disclosed. The first device may receive an indication activity from the second device. The indication activity may change the display and the illumination object on the first device and the displays on the illumination object and the display are similar. | 01-01-2009 |
20090172593 | METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR ALLOWING A USER TO SELECT A MENU OPTION - A method of allowing a user to select a menu option, which method comprises the steps of allowing the user to select a position ( | 07-02-2009 |
20090282102 | PLAYBACK DEVICE - A playback device comprising playback means for playing content and wireless communication means for communicating with another device that is within communication range, further comprising content management means for identifying a content item available from the other device, for making the identified content item available for playback by the playback means for as long as the other device is in communication with the playback device and for retaining a ghost reference to the identified content item after detecting the other device is no longer in communication with the playback device. | 11-12-2009 |
20100017723 | APPARATUS FOR INTRODUCING A DEPENDENCY BETWEEN A USER INTERFACE AND A SIGNAL - An apparatus ( | 01-21-2010 |
20130007668 | MULTI-VISOR: MANAGING APPLICATIONS IN HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAYS - A system and method are provided that enhances a user's experience when using a see-through near eye display device. A user interface is provided for a user to manage single or simultaneous applications in a head mounted device. Applications for the head mounted device may be activated or deactivated by the user via the user-interface. The user's total field of view (TFOV) which accounts for a complete range of rotation and translation of the user's head may be determined by tracking the user's head position and rotation relative to the user's body and an environment associated with the user. One region of the user's TFOV (e.g., the right-hand side) may display an “application menu” including a list of applications that can be launched, and another region of the user's TFOV (e.g., the left-hand side) may display an “active menu” including a list of applications currently running. | 01-03-2013 |
20140080604 | ACTIVITY ILLUMINATION - A method to indicate that a first device is in communication with a second device is disclosed. The first device may receive an indication activity from the second device. The indication activity may change the display and the illumination object on the first device and the displays on the illumination object and the display are similar. | 03-20-2014 |
20140250398 | ENHANCED CANVAS ENVIRONMENTS - Systems, methods, and software are disclosed herein for facilitating enhanced canvas presentation environments. In an implementation, a user interacts with a touch-enabled display system capable of displaying items on a canvas. In response to a gesture made by the user with respect to an item being displayed, a format-specific interaction model is identified based on a format associated with the item. A response to the gesture may then be determined using the interaction model and the response rendered for display. | 09-04-2014 |
20140250413 | ENHANCED PRESENTATION ENVIRONMENTS - Implementations disclosed herein include systems, methods, and software for enhanced presentations. In at least one implementation, motion information is generated that is associated with motion of a subject captured in three dimensions from a top view perspective of the subject. A control is identified based at least in part on the motion information and a presentation of information is rendered based at least in part on the control. | 09-04-2014 |
