Automobile display screen with graphical user interface

Automotive vehicle display screen with graphical user interface

In one aspect, a method for detecting an object and/or managing an inventory will be described. A motion of an object is detected at a storage structure. One or more images are acquired of at least a part of the object. A direction of the motion of the object is determined. An object is identified based on the one or more images. In various embodiments, an inventory for the storage structure is updated based on the motion direction determination and the object identity.

Object recognition for a storage structure

In one aspect, a method for adjusting one or more parameters using an interface will be described. A contact point on a display is detected. A parameter is adjusted based on a distance between a reference point and the contact point. A second parameter is adjusted based on an angle between a base line and a contact line. The base line is a reference line that extends from the reference point. The contact line is a reference line that connects the contact point with the reference point. Various systems, devices and software are described that help implement the above method.

Control interface

Multimedia terminal

Network hub

A computing system includes: a context module configured to determine a contextual information for representing the contextual information relative to a device; a zone module, coupled to the context module, configured to determine a proximity zone for identifying further devices within the proximity zone relative to the device; a proximate-device module, coupled to the zone module, configured to determine proximate-device identities for identifying the further devices relative to the device; and a configuration transfer module, coupled to the proximate-device module, configured to communicate a transferable configuration setting with a communication unit using the proximate-device identities for updating the device based on the transferable configuration setting and the contextual information for displaying on the device.

Computing system with configuration update mechanism and method of operation thereof

A system is described that includes a media management application for automatically scanning messages in a message inbox and new messages that are sent from or received by the message inbox to identify content, such as pictures, songs, etc., for tagging each message based on content attributes, and for storing the messages and content in a 'shoebox' relative to the content attributes.

Centralized media handling

A system is described that contains a device including a memory with a management application installed thereon. The management application contains a manager that generates a plurality of user accounts and associates at least one communication service as a messaging account with each user account, and an interface module that generates a user interface that presents the plurality of user accounts and that modifies the user interface based on the identification of the selected user account to present a selected account display.

Supporting multiple messaging services on mobile devices in a single user experience

A system and method are described for location-based and group-based operations on a data processing device. For example, a computer-implemented method according to one embodiment of the invention comprises: establishing a group containing identities of a plurality of users within the group and notification data indicating when other users are to be notified about current locations of the users in the group; determining whether wireless data processing devices of two or more users of the group are at the same location or within a particular distance of the location; identifying the users and the location; and notifying other users in the group of the identity of the users and the location.

Location-based and group-based operations on a data processing device

A system and method are described for location-based and group-based operations on a data processing device. For example, a computer-implemented method according to one embodiment of the invention comprises: establishing a buddy group containing identities of a plurality of users within the group and notification data indicating when other users are to be notified about current locations of the users in the group; determining whether wireless data processing devices of two or more users of the buddy group are at the same location or within a particular distance of the location; identifying the users and the location; and notifying other users in the group of the identity of the users and the location.

A graphical user interface which employs logical barriers for temporarily preventing cursor movement between graphical elements under certain circumstances. For example, one embodiment of the invention comprises a data processing device having a memory for storing program code and a processor for processing the program code to generate a graphical user interface (GUI), the GUI comprising: a first predefined region including of a first plurality of selectable graphical elements; a second predefined region including a second plurality of selectable graphical elements; and a logical barrier between the first predefined region and the second predefined region, the logical barrier configured to temporarily prevent movement from a graphical element in the first predetermined region to a graphical element in the second predetermined region in response to a user input directed towards graphical element in the second predetermined region, the logical barrier temporarily preventing the movement for either a specified period of time and/or a specified amount of movement generated by a user input device.

Trackball for a mobile device

Adjusting the GPS fix frequency of a wireless device is described. For example, a computer-implemented method according to one embodiment comprises: attempting GPS fix operations on a wireless device according to a first schedule; detecting one or more unsuccessful GPS fix operations; determining whether a location identified by a previous successful GPS fix operation is at or within a specified range from a first specified location; if the location identified by the previous successful GPS fix operation is at or within a specified range from a first specified location, then adjusting the wireless device to perform GPS fix operations according to a second schedule; and if the location identified by the previous successful GPS fix operation is not at or within a specified range from a first specified location, then adjusting the wireless device to perform GPS fix operations according to a third schedule.
