20080207173 | AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED MESSAGES BASED ON DETERMINED PHONE STATE - A method performed by a mobile terminal may include storing a plurality of text messages in a mobile terminal, determining a state of the mobile terminal; and selecting and displaying one of the plurality of stored text messages based on the determined state of the mobile terminal. | 08-28-2008 |
20090002205 | DATA INPUT DEVICE AND PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE - Embodiments include a data input device and a portable electronic device including such a data input device. The data input device may include a key sensing mechanism and a solid material layer provided above the key sensing mechanism. The solid material layer may include a least one cavity that may go through the whole of the solid material layer. The cavity may include an electroactive polymer and two electrodes for providing a key that may be changed in shape based on an applied voltage. One embodiment may also allows the registering of inputs in the key sensing mechanism based on a user pressing down the electroactive polymer on the key sensing mechanism. | 01-01-2009 |
20090195861 | LIGHT CONTROL OF AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE - The invention is directed towards an electronic device including at least one electro active polymer element. The at least one electro active polymer element includes an electrode. The at least one electro active polymer element is configured to change volume when a voltage is applied to the electrode, where the change in volume results in a change in a luminous transmittance of the electro active polymer element. | 08-06-2009 |
