20110235253 | PERIPHERAL DEVICE WITH LIMITED RELATIVE ANGULAR MOVEMENT - The present invention provides a peripheral device with limited relative angular movement. The peripheral device is configured for detachable operative interconnection with a computing device and comprises a first portion, a second portion, and an operatively connected peripheral device component. The first portion includes a first hinge portion, which defines an axis of rotation, and comprises a first protrusion and a second protrusion. The first protrusion is disposed axially separated at a predetermined distance from the second protrusion. The second portion includes a second hinge portion, which is operatively interconnected with the first hinge portion to allow the first portion and the second portion to rotate relative to one another about the axis of rotation between a first angle and a second angle. The peripheral device component provides one or more peripheral device functions. The first angle and the second angle at least in part are defined by the first protrusion and the second protrusion. | 09-29-2011 |
20130083494 | THREE-DIMENSIONAL ELECTRONICS PACKAGING - Solutions for providing stackable electronics packaging are provided. In some embodiments, electronic components are accommodated in the cavity of a printed circuit board (PCB) or printed circuit assembly (PCA), or co-accommodated in adjoining cavities of adjacent, stacked PCAs or PCBs. The cavities allow for closer stacking of the PCAs or PCBs. In some embodiments, a PCA comprises an encapsulant conformally layered over a PCB with electronic components mounted on top and bottom. Power and/or signal channels are routed through the encapsulant to the top and/or bottom layers. The encapsulated PCAs may be stacked. In various embodiments, stackable PCAs are modular, facilitating customization. | 04-04-2013 |
20140063774 | ELECTROMAGNETIC SHIELD CONFIGURED TO INHIBIT DEFORMATION - An electromagnetic shield is provided, for example for a printed circuit board. A shield lid fits onto a base structure having at least two, more typically four, opposing sidewalls. The lid includes a top portion and a lip extending downward from the top portion to cap the base structure. The lid includes at least one deformation inhibiting feature extending downward from the top portion, for placement near or against an interior portion of a sidewall, for example against an edge of a folded-over sidewall. The deformation inhibiting feature may include one or more half-dimples stamped into the lid. In response to an external force, the deformation inhibiting feature presses against its adjacent sidewall in order to brace the shield lid. This inhibits the base structure from deforming the lip due to outward pressure of a sidewall onto a portion of the lip, located opposite the deformation inhibiting feature. | 03-06-2014 |
20140273548 | REVERSE THROUGH-BOARD LOW PROFILE MODULE CONNECTOR - A connector component for operably coupling a removable integrated circuit component such as a Micro SIMâ„¢, to a host PCB is provided. The connector component is configured to fit within an aperture formed within the host PCB and houses the removable integrated circuit component within an internal cavity. The connector component includes a coupling portion configured for coupling to the top face of the host PCB, and a port for insertion and removal of the removable integrated circuit component which is exposed within the bottom face of the host PCB. The connector component may be made flush with the bottom face of the host PCB, and the host PCB may optionally be populated on one side only. | 09-18-2014 |

20100125905 | Method and Apparatus for Associating User Identity - In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus, comprising a processor configured to associate a first virtual screen with a first user identity receive input for transitioning from the first virtual screen to a second virtual screen, and associate the second virtual screen with a second user identity based at least in part on the input is disclosed. | 05-20-2010 |
20120233402 | Apparatus and Method for a Removable Memory Module - In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus is provided, comprising: a first part configured to receive a first and second removable memory module, a second part coupled with the first part with a hinge, and conductive terminals configured to contact the first removable memory module in a first closed position and the second removable memory module in a second closed position. | 09-13-2012 |
20130207901 | Virtual Created Input Object - An apparatus including an electrical touch surface; and a controller connected to the touch surface. Based upon a user drawing a symbol on the touch surface, the controller is configured to create a virtual user input object at the touch surface corresponding to the drawn symbol. | 08-15-2013 |
20130272557 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR A SOUND GENERATING DEVICE COMBINED WITH A DISPLAY UNIT - In an embodiment an apparatus includes a display panel and a speaker module. The panel has a display layer for displaying images and defines a plurality of apertures penetrating through at least the display layer. The speaker module includes a diaphragm arranged substantially parallel to the display layer. Sound from the speaker diaphragm is directed outside a device through the apertures and the display layer is configured for displaying at least one virtual image in relation to generated sound waves wherein the display panel is acoustically transparent. | 10-17-2013 |
20140379757 | METHODS, APPARATUS AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE STORAGE MEDIUMS FOR ORGANISING AND ACCESSING IMAGE DATABASES - A method comprising: receiving a user request including one or more object identifiers of an object database; determining if one or more stored images include one or more image portions corresponding to the one or more object identifiers; and controlling display of one or more of the stored images that include one or more image portions corresponding to the one or more object identifiers in the received user request. | 12-25-2014 |
