Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090006958Method, Apparatus and Computer Program Product for Providing an Object Selection Mechanism for Display Devices - An apparatus for providing an object selection mechanism for touch screen devices may include a processing element. The processing element may be configured to receive an indication of a detection of an event associated with a display, determine a type of the event, determine a candidate object associated with the type of the event, and generate a user interface component based on the determination of the candidate object.01-01-2009
20090079702Method, Apparatus and Computer Program Product for Providing an Adaptive Keypad on Touch Display Devices - An apparatus for providing an adaptive keypad on touch display devices may include a processing element. The processing element may be configured to receive an indication of a detection of a touch event invoking an operation related to a text character entry, determine candidate text characters based on the operation, and provide for a display of an adaptive keypad having a size that is variable based on the candidate text characters.03-26-2009
20100138784MULTITASKING VIEWS FOR SMALL SCREEN DEVICES - A system and method that includes providing content items to be displayed on a display of a device, determining a relevance of each content item with respect to each other content item, and organizing the content items on the display of the device along a scattered continuum, wherein more contextually relevant content is located closer to a center area of the display and less contextually relevant content is located away from the center area.06-03-2010
20110102334METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING ADJUSTED POSITION FOR TOUCH INPUT - An apparatus, comprising a processor, memory including computer program code, the memory and the computer program code configured to, working with the processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least receiving indication of a touch input associated with a touch display, comprising position information associated with the touch input, determining a hand orientation associated with the touch input, and determining an adjusted position to associate with the touch input based at least in part on the determined hand orientation, and the position information associated with the touch input is disclosed.05-05-2011
20110260842APPARATUS, METHOD, COMPUTER PROGRAM AND USER INTERFACE - An apparatus, method, computer program and apparatus wherein the apparatus comprises: at least one processor: and at least one memory including computer program code; wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, enable the apparatus to: provide a user selectable part; and configure the apparatus in either a first active state or a second active state wherein, in the first active state the user selectable part is actuated in response to a first mode of actuation and in the second active state the user selectable part is not actuated in response to the first mode of actuation; and configure the apparatus to provide a tactile indication when the apparatus is in the first active state that the user selectable part is actuated in response to the first mode of actuation.10-27-2011
20110260985APPARATUS, METHOD, COMPUTER PROGRAM AND USER INTERFACE - An apparatus, method, computer program and apparatus wherein the apparatus comprises: a user input device; at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code; wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, enable the apparatus to: control a display to display a user interface item; and associate, in response to actuation of the user input device, a user interface item with a tactile indication so that the tactile indication is provided whenever the user interface item is displayed.10-27-2011
20110265000APPARATUS, METHOD, COMPUTER PROGRAM AND USER INTERFACE - An apparatus, method, computer program and apparatus wherein the apparatus comprises: a user input device; at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code; wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, enable the apparatus to: provide a user selectable part of the user input device; configure the apparatus in either a first state or a second state wherein, in the first state the user selectable part is associated with a first function, having a first characteristic, so that the first function is performed in response to actuation of the user selectable part and in the second state the user selectable part is not associated with the first function so that the first function is not performed in response to the actuation of the user selectable part; and configure the apparatus to control the tactile quality of the user selectable part with respect to the rest of the user input device so that the user selectable part is provided with a first tactile quality when the apparatus is in the first state and a second tactile quality when the apparatus is in the second state wherein the relative height is indicative of the first characteristic of the first function.10-27-2011
20120036468USER INPUT REMAPPING - An apparatus and method for receiving an input at a first location on an input-sensing surface, the first location being mapped to the activation of a first user interface component; receiving a correction of the activation to the activation of a second user interface component; and based at least in part on the correction, remapping subsequent inputs within a locus to the activation of the second user interface component.02-09-2012
