20080276273 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FOCUSED NAVIGATION IN A MEDIA CENTER/EXTENSION DEVICE ARCHITECTURE - A home entertainment system includes a home media center for providing media content to a plurality of remotely located televisions within a home. The home media center includes a user interface module to generate graphical commands usable by a separate media center extension to render a focused navigation user interface on one of the plurality of televisions. | 11-06-2008 |
20090125843 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FOCUSED NAVIGATION USING OPTION TYPE FILTERS - A sequence of cards representing filters is displayed along a first axis of a user interface with a single card being displayed in a focus area. The card in the focus area defines a selected object type filter, which is applied to another sequence of available options. The filtered sequence is then displayed along another (perpendicular) axis of the user interface, which only includes options corresponding to the selected option type filter. | 05-14-2009 |
20090300497 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FOCUSED NAVIGATION WITHIN A USER INTERFACE - A sequence of cards is stored that graphically represents available options within an information system. In response to a single user action, the sequence of cards is successively displayed within a focus area of the user interface. In response to a subsequent user action, the successive display is discontinued to display a particular card representing a selected option. | 12-03-2009 |
20100011322 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FOCUSED NAVIGATION WITHIN A USER INTERFACE - A sequence of cards is stored that graphically represents available options within an information system. In response to a single user action, the sequence of cards is successively displayed within a focus area of the user interface. In response to a subsequent user action, the successive display is discontinued to display a particular card representing a selected option. | 01-14-2010 |
20100122290 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FOCUSED NAVIGATION WITHIN A USER INTERFACE - A method for navigation of television program listings within a user interface includes successively displaying a first set of visual cards in a first area of the user interface. Each visual card of the first set of visual cards represents a corresponding broadcast time slot associated with a graphically represented first card characteristic. Selection by a user of a particular visual card of the first set of visual cards is enabled in order to view a television program corresponding to the time slot represented by the selected visual card. In an embodiment, a transition from display of a first visual card of the first set of visual cards to display of a second visual card of the first set of visual cards occurs automatically at the conclusion of a first time period. | 05-13-2010 |
20100242068 | System and Method for Capturing Video Clips for Focused Navigation within a User Interface - A video clip is captured from a television broadcast on each of a plurality of channels. The captured video clips are provided to a display interface, which successively displays the captured video clips within a focus area of a user interface in response to an initiating action by a user. The display interface then discontinues the successive display of video clips to show a particular video clip corresponding to a selected channel in response to a terminating action by the user. | 09-23-2010 |
20140358938 | FILE UPLOAD BASED ON HASH VALUE COMPARISON - A server determines whether a the stored on a computing device matches a file stored on the server by comparing hash values for a first portion of the files. Based on the comparing, the server determines whether to upload the first portion of the file. The server uploads second portion of the file. The server generates the file for download by appending the first portion of the file stored on the server to the second portion of the file uploaded from the computing device. | 12-04-2014 |

20080197983 | Conditional RFID - A RFID tag includes logic to compare information in a received signal with conditional response criteria, and to respond to the received signal with an RFID only if the information satisfies the conditional response criteria. | 08-21-2008 |
20080207261 | Panoramic scene capture using a mobile wireless device - A device accessible via a wireless service network includes logic to receive digital frames from a wireless communication device, to identify digital frames that are suitable tiles for a digital panorama, to create a digital panorama from the identified frames, and to associate the panorama with one or more locations on a digital map. | 08-28-2008 |
20080268920 | Turbulence sensitive mobile device power control - A mobile communication device may include one or more sensors to detect shaking and/or swinging of the device when the device is in a low-power or power-down mode. The device may include logic to determine if shaking and/or swinging occurred within an interval of time after the device was used, and logic to remove the device from low power or power down mode (and thus initiate a power-up mode) if shaking and/or swinging occurred within the interval of time after the device was used. | 10-30-2008 |
20130138344 | MOBILE LOCATION AND MAP ACQUISITION - Providing a map and/or directions to a visitor to a facility may include and/or involve a wireless communication device signaling its presence at a location in a facility, and communicating to the wireless communication device a map of the facility indicating the location. This may include and/or involve communicating to the wireless device directions to and/or from the location to a destination within the facility. | 05-30-2013 |
