20200310486 · 2020-10-01 · ·

An electronic display device includes measurement sensors that measure respective items, a digital display that displays the items, and a processor. The processor determines a main image related to a measurement of at least one of the items and updates a screen at first timing. Upon displaying the main image related to a measurement of an item other than the first item on the digital display, the processor determines that a sub image is related to measurement of the first item, synchronizes the first timing with update timing that is related to the main image, and simultaneously updates the main image and the sub image.

Automatic time zone updating method and system for bluetooth watch

A method and system for automatically updating a current time zone of a smart watch by using the smart watch to acquire longitude and latitude data corresponding to a current location of the smart watch and to provide the longitude and latitude data to a mobile terminal to generate time zone information that is then provided to the smart watch.

Clock faces for an electronic device

A device displays a clock face in response to receiving a request to display a clock face. In accordance with a determination that a respective graphical element is to be displayed at a respective location on the clock face, the clock face includes a plurality of analog-dial graphical elements corresponding to respective units of time, where the plurality of analog-dial graphical elements includes a first analog-dial graphical element that occupies a first position and has a first size. In accordance with a determination that the respective graphical element is not to be displayed at a respective location on the clock face, the clock face includes the plurality of analog-dial graphical elements corresponding to the respective units of time, and the first analog-dial graphical element of the plurality of analog-dial graphical elements occupies a second position and/or has a second size. In some embodiments, clock faces are reordered.

AUTOMATIC TIME ZONE DETECTION IN DEVICES

Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for enabling devices to determine the time zone in which they are located. A mobile device may receive location information from one or more sources. Based thereon, the current location of the mobile device may be determined in terms of latitude and longitude. The indication of the current location may be converted to an index value according to a Hilbert curve (or other space-filling curve), and the index value applied to a time zone index file to determine the local time zone. A time zone setting of the mobile device may be updated accordingly. Furthermore, geofencing may be used by the mobile device to detect movement towards and through a time zone boundary, leading to a new time zone determination being initiated.

Display device and method for displaying a timeline of at least two successive events and/or activities to be carried out

The invention relates to a device (1-1f) for displaying a timeline of at least two successive events and/or activities to be carried out, said device having a main body (2-2e) with at least two display fields (4, 5, 6-4f, 5f, 6f) and a movable indicator (8-8c; 14; 14e; 14f).The movable indicator (8-8c; 14; 14e; 14f) is expediently designed to point to one of the display fields in order to indicate the event and/or the activity to be carried out. Advantageously, a user who is cognitively impaired is provided by the device according to the invention with an easily understandable time schedule independent of a time of day.

Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for displaying a timeline of at least two successive events and/or activities to be carried out, in which a movable indicator (8-8c; 14; 14e; 14f) points to one of at least two display fields (4, 5, 6-4f, 5f, 6f).
