The detection unit detects the current sequencing of at least two of the plurality of I/O ports being in a disconnected state with corresponding external devices. The comparison unit compares the current sequencing of at least two of the plurality of I/O ports being in a disconnected state with a predetermined sequencing of the at least two of the plurality of I/O ports being in a disconnected state. When the current sequencing of at least two of the plurality of I/O ports being in a disconnected state is different from the predetermined sequencing, the alert unit provides an alert. | 05-31-2012 |
20120144496 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH DATA PROTECTION FUNCTION AND METHOD THEREOF - The present disclosure provides an electronic device with a data protection function. The device includes a display, an input unit, and a processor. The display displays content of a document and a cursor. The input unit generates mode switching signals in response to a user input. The mode switching signals is for switching operational modes of the electronic device between a normal mode and a data protection mode. The processor switches the device to the data protection mode upon receiving the mode switching signals when in the normal mode, and displays a color layer on the display to cause content selected through the cursor to be visible and unselected content to be invisible when in the data protection mode. A related method is also provided. | 06-07-2012 |
20120147729 | PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH DISC DRIVE - A portable electronic device includes a first main body and a disc drive. The disc drive is received in the first main body. The disc drive includes a second main body, a driving element, and a laser assembly. The second main body is rotatably received in the first main body. The driving element is arranged on the second main body for driving a disc. The laser assembly includes a laser slidably received in the first main body. The disc drive is in a use state when the second main body is rotated to cause the driving element to face the laser. | 06-14-2012 |
20120174107 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD FOR RUNNING APPLICATION - An electronic device capable of selecting an appropriate running mode for a to-be-run application is provided. The device is powered by a battery and runs a number of applications, which can be run in different running modes. The device includes a storage unit and a processor. The storage unit stores a relationship among the number of applications, running modes, and power consumption speeds. The processor detects current battery capacity of the battery, obtains the power consumption speeds corresponding to a to-be-run application being run in different modes respectively, and determines running times of the application in the different modes. The processor further compares each determined running time with a preset running time of the application and controls the application to be run in one mode according to the comparison result. A related control method is also provided. | 07-05-2012 |
20120287160 | DISPLAY DEVICE AND ROTATION METHOD OF SAME - A display device includes a display screen, an image capturing device for capturing real-time images of a user, a direction unit, an angle calculation unit, and a control unit. The direction unit determines a first desired rotation direction around a first axis and a second desired rotation direction around a second axis based on the movement of the head image of the user in the real-time images. The angle calculation unit calculates a first desired rotation angle around the first axis and a second desired rotation angle around the second axis based on the movement of the head image of the user in the real-time images. The control unit controls the display screen to rotate in the first desired rotation direction by the first desired rotation angle and controls the display screen to rotate in the second desired rotation direction by the second desired rotation angle. | 11-15-2012 |
