20130086077 | Method and Apparatus for Associating Commenting Information with One or More Objects - An approach is provided for presenting a user interface and associating one or more commenting information with on one or more content items detected in one or more media items. Further, a user may associate one or more commenting information related to a point of interest/object wherein one or more content items associated with the point of interest/object may be retrieved and aggregated with the one or more commenting information. | 04-04-2013 |
20130147702 | Method, Apparatus, Computer Program and User Interface - A method, apparatus, computer program and user interface wherein the method comprises: detecting a user input at a first apparatus; determining that the user input was also detectable by a second apparatus; and causing a function to be performed where at least part of the function is performed by the first apparatus and at least part of the function is performed by the second apparatus. | 06-13-2013 |
20130162667 | USER INTERFACES AND ASSOCIATED APPARATUS AND METHODS - One example apparatus is provided that includes at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code with the at least one memory and the computer program code being configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to at least detect one or more particular user inputs from respective one or more positions, each position associated with a respective edge region of a display. The at least one memory and computer program code may also be configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to, upon detection of the one or more particular user inputs, modify at least a portion of a foreground view on the display to create a peep-hole within the foreground view in the portion, the foreground view comprising first content data associated with a foreground application and the peep-hole comprising second content data. | 06-27-2013 |
20140347273 | User Interface Apparatus and Associated Methods - An apparatus including at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following: determine a curvature of a deformable flexible user interface area of an electronic device, the deformable flexible user interface area being capable of detecting user input within a hover region; and based on the determined curvature, enable adjusting the hover input region of the user interface area to maintain a substantially flat planar hover input region across the deformable flexible user interface area. | 11-27-2014 |

20100262616 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING VISUAL SEARCH ENGINE RESULTS - An approach is provided for modifying the image content of returned images resulting from a search query. The portions of each image that is unrelated to the search query is omitted or other wise obscured so as to reduce the amount of image data in the search results. Additionally, related advertising, hyperlinks, or other object can be combined with the image data to enhance the information returned to the user. | 10-14-2010 |
20130202265 | Video Viewing Angle Selection - A method including identifying a plurality of common objects-of-interest in each of a plurality of videos, where each of the plurality of videos has a different viewing angle of the plurality of objects-of-interest; and automatically selecting a first one of the videos to send to a user based, at least partially, upon a selection by the user of one of the objects-of-interest. | 08-08-2013 |
20130222222 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRESENTING MULTI-DIMENSIONAL REPRESENTATIONS OF AN IMAGE DEPENDENT UPON THE SHAPE OF A DISPLAY - A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to cause different multi-dimensional representations of an image to be presented upon a display and to facilitate changing from one multi-dimensional representation of the image to another multi-dimensional representation of the image, such as in response to a change in the shape of the display. In the context of a method, a first, multi-dimensional representation of an image is caused to be presented upon the display while the display has a first shape. The method also causes a second, multi-dimensional representation of the image, different than the first, multi-dimensional representation of the image, to be presented upon the display while the display has a second shape, different than the first shape. The method also determines the shape of the display such that the corresponding representation of the image is caused to be presented in response thereto. | 08-29-2013 |
