20100318697 | UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS (USB) TO DIGITAL VIDEO - This document discusses, among other things, a system and method for deserializing non-packet-based video information received using a physical Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface and providing a high definition output signal to a video port (e.g., an HD video port, such as HDMI, DisplayPort, etc.) using the deserialized video information. | 12-16-2010 |
20100318704 | UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS (USB) TO DIGITAL VIDEO - This document discusses, among other things, a system and method for switching serialized video information (e.g., non-packet-based video information) and Universal Serial Bus (USB) information (e.g., packet-based information) to a common output (e.g., to a physical USB interface). | 12-16-2010 |
20110099298 | METHOD OF DETECTING ACCESSORIES ON AN AUDIO JACK - An apparatus comprises an audio or video jack connector configured to receive an audio or video jack plug of a separate device, a detection circuit in electrical communication with the connector, and a processor communicatively coupled to the detection circuit. The connector includes an electrical contact for connection to a conducting terminal of the plug. The detection circuit is configured to determine a resistance at the conducting terminal. The resistance is a resistive load of the separate device at the conducting terminal of the plug. The processor is configured to identify a function of the separate device according to the determined resistance, and configure an operation of the apparatus according to the determined function. | 04-28-2011 |
20110099300 | CAMERA SHUTTER CONTROL THROUGH A USB PORT OR AUDIO/VIDEO PORT - An apparatus comprises a digital image sensor, a communication port, a detection circuit and a processor. The detection circuit is configured to detect a change in electrical resistance at a connector of the communication port. The processor is configured to initiate an operation of the apparatus according to the detected change in resistance. | 04-28-2011 |
20110291482 | VBUS POWER SWITCH - This document discusses, among other things, an electronic circuit and method for defaulting to a valid battery supply to power an electronic device. In an example, an electronic circuit can be configured to receive information about the battery supply (e.g., an internal battery), such as the battery supply voltage (V | 12-01-2011 |
20120293702 | REMOTE DISPLAY GLASSES CAMERA SYSTEM AND METHOD - A system including a digital camera and remote display glasses. The remote display glasses include a frame, at least one display, and a first and a second temple configured to support the display proximate to at least one of the user's eyes when the remote display glasses are worn on the user's head. The digital camera includes a lens configured to capture light, an electronic viewfinder; a video processor configured to generate an image, and a camera switch configured to selectively transmit the image from the video processor to the electronic viewfinder or the display of the remote display glasses. | 11-22-2012 |
20120326736 | DETECTING ACCESSORIES ON AN AUDIO OR VIDEO JACK - A detection circuit can be configured to receive a digital value from an identification register and to determine a resistance at a conducting terminal of an audio or video jack plug using the digital value. The detection circuit can include a current source that outputs a current according to the digital value from the identification register and a comparator that compares a reference voltage to a voltage created by the current source across the resistance at the conducting terminal of the audio or video jack plug. A control logic circuit can be configured to store the digital value in the identification register, generate an interrupt signal to cause a processor to read the digital value, and identify a function of an accessory device including the audio or video jack plug, when the detection circuit determines the resistance at the conducting terminal of the audio or video jack plug. | 12-27-2012 |
20130086297 | UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS (USB) TO DIGITAL VIDEO - This document discusses, among other things, a system and method for serializing a video signal and providing non-packet-based serialized video information to a physical Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface and, in certain examples, receiving the non-packet-based serialized video information from the physical USB interface, deserializing the received non-packet-based serialized video information, and providing a high definition output signal to a video port (e.g., an HD video port, such as HDMI, DisplayPort, etc.) using the deserialized video information. | 04-04-2013 |
20140025845 | DETECTING ACCESSORIES ON AN AUDIO OR VIDEO JACK - A detection circuit can be configured to receive a digital value from an identification register and to determine a resistance at a conducting terminal of an audio or video jack plug using the digital value. The detection circuit can include a current source that outputs a current according to the digital value from the identification register and a comparator that compares a reference voltage to a voltage created by the current source across the resistance at the conducting terminal of the audio or video jack plug. A control logic circuit can be configured to store the digital value in the identification register, generate an interrupt signal to cause a processor to read the digital value, and identify a function of an accessory device including the audio or video jack plug, when the detection circuit determines the resistance at the conducting terminal of the audio or video jack plug. | 01-23-2014 |
