There is provided a method and apparatus for determining at least one of a position and an orientation of a wearable device on a subject. At least one physiological characteristic signal is acquired from a subject (). The acquired at least one physiological characteristic signal from the subject has one or more characteristics indicative of at least one of a position and an orientation of a wearable device on the subject. The at least one of the position and orientation of the wearable device on the subject is determined based on the one or more characteristics indicative of the at least one of the position and orientation of the wearable device on the subject ().

Display screen with graphical user interface

A data processing system, e.g., a remote control device, has a pressure-sensitive touch screen arranged over a display monitor. The monitor provides a visual indication depending on a magnitude of a pressure registered by the touch screen. The indication is rendered as centered on the touch area and has an attribute that depends on the pressure exerted.

An audio/video set is operated with hierarchical menus. It displays a menu string of first items in a first coordinate direction on the screen and detects a user selecting an item thereamong. Upon so detecting, the set displays a menu string of second items in a coordinate direction transverse to the first direction and through the selected item. It detects user selection among the second items for activating an associated television functionality. It displays the items in a bulletized manner as annotated by supporting indicativity.
