According to various embodiments, a gaming controller for a mobile device includes a first hardware gaming controller configured to be manipulated by a user's left thumb and/or fingers to generate a left controller input; and a second hardware gaming controller configured to be manipulated by a user's right thumb and/or fingers to generate a right controller input. The first hardware gaming controller is mechanically securable to a side portion of a housing, and the second hardware gaming controller is mechanically securable to an opposing side portion of the housing. One of the first hardware gaming controller and the second hardware gaming controller is a primary game controller configured to combine the left controller input and the right controller input into a single controller input representation for providing to the mobile device.

Gaming controller for mobile device and method of operating a gaming controller

According to various embodiments, a method for emulating a virtual controller device may be provided. The method may include: receiving input from a game controller; determining whether the received input is assigned to a first virtual controller device or to a second virtual controller device; outputting data related to the first virtual controller device if it is determined that the received input is assigned to the first virtual controller device; and outputting data related to the second virtual controller device if it is determined that the received input is assigned to the second virtual controller device.

Methods for emulating a virtual controller device, emulators, and computer-readable media

In the present disclosure, a gaming controller for a mobile device is provided. The gaming controller can include a first hardware gaming controller including a first programmable controller and at least one input switch, the at least one input switch of the first hardware gaming controller configured to be manipulated by a user's left thumb and/or fingers to generate a left controller input with the first programmable controller. The gaming controller can include a second hardware gaming controller including a second programmable controller and at least one input switch, the at least one input switch of the second hardware gaming controller configured to be manipulated by a user's right thumb and/or fingers to generate a right controller input with the second programmable controller. The first hardware gaming controller and the second hardware gaming controller are each configured to be removably coupleable with a mobile device, the mobile device including a mobile device processor coupled to a memory module and configured to run a software application. Further, the first hardware gaming controller is configured to be mechanically secured to a side portion of a housing of the mobile device, and the second hardware gaming controller is configured to be mechanically secured to an opposing side portion of the housing of the mobile device. The left controller input and the right controller input can be combined with a virtual controller module to form a virtual gaming controller with a single controller input representation for providing to the software application. A corresponding method for operating a gaming controller is also provided.

A mobile radio communication device is provided. The mobile radio communication device include; a near field communication interface configured to communicate with a near field communication device using a near field communication standard; a further communication interface configured to communicate with a further communication device using a further communication standard; and a conversion circuit configured to convert information between the near field communication standard and the further communication standard.

Mobile radio communication devices, communication devices, methods for controlling a mobile radio communication device, and methods for controlling a communication device

According to various embodiments, a method for controlling a computing device may be provided. The method may include: controlling a central processing unit; providing using a kernel an interface between the central processing unit and an application to be executed by the central processing unit; providing a software in a user space; providing a virtual file system in the kernel; and communicating using a communication interface between the software and the virtual file system.

Methods for controlling a computing device, computer-readable media, and computing devices

According to various embodiments, an information encoding method may be provided. The information encoding method may include: receiving information to be encoded; splitting the information into a plurality of subsets; assigning each subset to a frame, so as to determine a plurality of frames; for each subset assigning the subset to a plurality of colors; and sequentially, for each frame of the plurality of frames, displaying the colors assigned for the respective frame and an indicator for the frame on an array of picture elements.

Information encoding methods, information decoding methods, computer-readable media, information encoders, and information decoders

According to various embodiments, a radio communication device may be provided. The radio communication device may include: a receiver configured to receive from a first further radio communication device first information indicating a Received Signal Strength Indication in the first further radio communication device and configured to receive from a second further radio communication device second information indicating a Received Signal Strength Indication in the second further radio communication device; a selection circuit configured to select the first further radio communication device or the second further radio communication device based on the first information and the second information; and a pairing request circuit configured to send a request for pairing to the selected further radio communication device.
