20100169785 | Methods and Systems for Interacting with an Imaging Device - Aspects of the present invention are related to systems and methods for remote interaction with an imaging device. | 07-01-2010 |
20110026069 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PERFORMING AN IMAGING OPERATION USING A WIRELESS REMOVABLE STORAGE DEVICE - A method for performing an imaging operation using a wireless removable storage device is described. A wireless removable storage device is connected to an imaging device. The wireless removable storage device comprises a wireless transceiver for wireless communications, memory and a communications port for connecting to other devices. Wireless communications are established between the wireless removable storage device and a mobile computing device. An imaging operation is performed relating to a document file, and the document file is communicated between the wireless removable storage device and the imaging device. The document file is also communicated between the wireless removable storage device and the mobile computing device. | 02-03-2011 |
20110296213 | Enterprise power management method and system and power manager for use therein - A method and system for managing power in an enterprise environment based on individual office worker schedules. In one aspect, the system includes a power manager, a plurality of client devices operatively coupled with the power manager and a plurality of managed elements operatively coupled with the power manager, wherein the power manager receives from the client devices individual worker schedule information and generates based at least in part on the individual worker schedule information a list of scheduled events having associated managed elements and power profiles, and wherein in response to a start time of a scheduled event the power manager adjusts a power state of one or more managed elements associated with the scheduled event in accordance with a power profile associated with the scheduled event. | 12-01-2011 |
20120079399 | Methods and Systems for Routing Meeting-Related Content - Aspects of the present invention are related to systems and methods for routing meeting-related content to destinations associated with meeting participants. | 03-29-2012 |
20120083934 | MONITORING AND CONTROLLING ENERGY IN AN OFFICE ENVIRONMENT - A method for monitoring and controlling energy usage in an office environment is described. Energy usage information and sensor data are received from a status and control unit for an appliance. An appropriate energy profile for the appliance is determined. The energy profile is customizable by an end user based on preferences and schedules. The energy profile corresponds to appliances within an energy group. A control message is sent to the status and control unit to implement the determined energy profile. | 04-05-2012 |
20120302226 | Workspace energy management using multifactor presence detection and mobile phone identity verification - A workspace energy management method and system control the power state of workspace appliances using multi-factor presence detection and mobile phone identity verification. Multifactor presence detection substantially reduces the risk that workspace appliances will be powered-up in response to erroneous detection of presence at the workspace (e.g., false positive). Mobile phone identity verification, which verifies that the office worker's mobile phone is at the workspace (and thus that the office worker is also likely at the workspace) before workspace appliances are powered-up, prevents workspace appliances from being inadvertently powered-up by personnel other than the office worker, but without compromising worker privacy. | 11-29-2012 |

20130151656 | Globally Assembled, Locally Interpreted Conditional Digital Signage Playlists - Globally assembled, locally interpreted conditional digital signage playlists allow a global administrator with knowledge of content provider intentions but without knowledge of local data collection methods or local customs at digital signage deployments to assemble a conditional playlist on a global basis and be ensured that content items from the playlist will be displayed at all deployments in a manner conformant with content provider intentions, local data collection methods and local customs. | 06-13-2013 |
20130201161 | Methods, Systems and Apparatus for Digital-Marking-Surface Content-Unit Manipulation - Aspects of the present invention are related to systems, methods and apparatus for collecting and displaying digital-marking-surface content based on semantic tags. Some aspects of the present invention relate to ink gestures that invoke content-unit tagging. Some aspects of the present invention relate to ink gestures that invoke the collection and display of like-tagged content units. Some aspects of the present invention relate to ink gestures that invoke the restoration of a viewport or digital sheet to a pre-collection state. Some aspects of the present invention relate to manipulation of content units in a collection view and the persistence of the content-unit manipulations upon restoration of a pre-collect state. Some aspects of the present invention relate to action invocation from a collection view. | 08-08-2013 |
20140245181 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR INTERACTING WITH AN INFORMATION DISPLAY PANEL - Aspects of the present invention are related to methods and systems for interacting with an information display panel. An interactive display system may comprise an information display panel (IDP), a server system and a touch-enabled mobile device. Touch gestures, for example, single-touch gestures, multi-touch gestures and other gestures, performed on the touch-enabled mobile device may control the content displayed on the IDP. Touch-gesture information describing a touch gesture performed on the touch-enabled mobile device may be communicated to the server system from the touch-enabled mobile device. The server system may translate the received touch-gesture information into IDP-domain touch-gesture information specific to the IDP. The IDP-domain touch-gesture information may be communicated from the server system to the IDP. The IDP may decode the received IDP-domain touch-gesture information and may effectuate changes to content displayed on the IDP in accordance with the decoded IDP-domain touch-gesture information. | 08-28-2014 |
