A system can include a power cable that includes a plug and a cord; and a power supply unit that includes wireless charging circuitry and a disk shaped body that includes a recess, a power connector disposed in the recess and a cable notch as a passage from the recess to an outer perimeter of the disk shaped body, where the power connector is electrically coupled to the wireless charging circuitry and where the plug couples to the power connector and the cord passes through the cable notch.

Power supply system

A system can include a processor; memory accessible to the processor; a base housing; a display housing that includes a display operatively coupled to the processor, a display side, and a back side that includes a back side mobile device docking surface; a hinge assembly that couples the display housing and the base housing; and mobile device control circuitry that, responsive to docking of a mobile device to the back side mobile device docking surface, issues a mobile device operational control command.

Computing system

A method can include receiving by a mobile device, an identifier transmitted wirelessly from a tagged device; accessing proximity information using the identifier and the mobile device; performing a wireless ranging protocol using the mobile device to determine a distance from the mobile device to the tagged device; and establishing a control session for control of the tagged device using the mobile device, where the distance is within a distance limit specified by the proximity information.

Automated device control session

A system can include a display assembly that includes a rectangular housing that includes a back side that includes a raised portion and an attachment surface adjacent to the raised portion; and a stand that includes a base, a joint assembly and a coupling that magnetically couples to the attachment surface of the display assembly.

Display system

A case can include a base that includes at least one input device; a display device holder; a hinge that couples the base and the display device holder; and a flexible back end that automatically extends backwardly responsive to opening rotation of the display device holder with respect to the base via the hinge.

Computing device case

A system can include a display housing that includes a display, a frame, a display side, and a back side; and a cellular phone coupling that couples a cellular phone to the display housing with a portion of the cellular phone extendable a distance beyond an edge of the frame of the display housing.

A system can include a display device that includes a rectangular housing that includes a back side that includes a first arrangement of magnets; and a stand that includes a base, a flap and a hinge that couples the flap to the base, where the flap includes a second arrangement of magnets, where the first arrangement of magnets and the second arrangement of magnets provide a first magnetic attraction force that couples the rectangular housing to the flap in a first position and a second magnetic attraction force that couples the rectangular housing to the flap in a second position, where, in the second position, the rectangular housing is rotated by 90 degrees with respect to the first position.

A foldable device can include a processor; memory accessible to the processor; a foldable frame that includes a hinge assembly that defines a folding axis offset from a center of the foldable frame; and a foldable display supported by the foldable frame and operatively coupled to the processor.

Foldable device

A system can include a tablet computer that includes a tablet display; and a clamshell computer that includes a keyboard housing, a display housing and a hinge assembly that rotatably couples the keyboard housing and the display housing, where the display housing includes a display viewable via a display side, an opposing back side, and a tablet computer recess disposed between the display side and the back side that removably receives the tablet computer.

Removable tablet computing system

An apparatus can include a processor; memory accessible to the processor; a base housing; a display housing that includes a center panel and folding wings that fold over the center panel to form a recess for the base housing; and a hinge assembly that couples the display housing to the base housing.

Folding device

A system can include a processor; memory accessible to the processor; a first display housing that includes a first display, a first display surface and a recess; a second display housing that includes a second display, a second display surface, where the second display housing is translatable at least partially out of the recess to expose at least a portion of the second display surface adjacent to the first display surface; a sensor that generates a position signal for position of the second display; and circuitry that controls rendering of information to the second display based at least in part on the position signal.

A system can include a display housing that includes a display on a display side, and an opposing, back side; a keyboard housing that includes a keyboard portion that includes a keyboard, a stand portion, and a hinge assembly that rotatably couples the keyboard portion and the stand portion; a stand portion and back side contact orientation, where the stand portion forms a non-planar angle with the keyboard portion and contacts the back side of the display housing to support the display housing at the non-planar angle with the keyboard portion; and a keyboard portion and back side contact orientation, where the keyboard portion is non-planar with the stand portion and contacts the back side of the display housing to support the display housing at one of two different angles.

Computing system with keyboard stand

A virtual collaboration system receives input video data including a participant. The system analyzes the input video data to identify a gesture or a movement made by the participant. The system selects an overlay image as a function of the gesture or the movement made by the participant, incorporates the overlay image into the input video data, thereby generating output video data that includes the overlay image, and transmits the output video data to one or more participant devices.

Controlling video data content using computer vision

A computer implemented method and device for augmenting a communal display device (CDD) are provided. The method includes, under control of one or more processors configured with specific executable program instructions, capturing CDD image data at a digital camera unit (DCU) of a client device. The CDD image data is indicative of an image presented on the CDD. The method displays the CDD image data on a display of the client device and processes the CDD image data to determine interactive regions associated with the image presented on the CDD. The method generates an instruction in response to a user-based selection on the client device of at least one of the interactive regions and transmits the instruction to one or more processors associated with the CDD.

Method and device for augmenting a communal display device

In one aspect, a device includes at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage includes instructions executable by the at least one processor to identify coordinates of a camera relative to a screen and to present on the screen a video stream next to the coordinates responsive to identifying the coordinates of the camera.
