Exemplary embodiments of methods and systems that dynamically generate different user environments from a handheld device for secondary devices with displays of various form factors are described. In one embodiment, a method includes generating a user environment for the handheld device; auto-detecting a configuration of the secondary device over an interface; generating at least a part of a different second user environment based on the configuration of the secondary device; transmitting the second user environment over the interface; and displaying at least a part of the second user environment on the second display.

A method for generating an alert and/or a notification to a system user is provided. The method may include using a receiver to receive a user selection to capture a generated alert and/or report. At a point that is later in time than the user selection to capture, the method may further include using the receiver to receive a user instruction to recall the captured alert and/or report. The method may also include using the processor to update the fields associated with the captured alert and/or report. In addition, the method may include using the processor to display the alert and/or report based on the updated fields.

An terminal apparatus includes a terminal communication section that transmits image data to a projector, an image data generating section that generates comparison result image data representing a result of comparison between a post-update image data and a pre-update image data, and an evaluation section that evaluates whether or not the comparison result image data generated by the image data generating section represents that there is no difference between the pre-update image data and the post-update image data. The evaluation section evaluates the comparison result image data whenever a frame cycle elapses in a case where the comparison result image data represents that there is difference and evaluates the comparison result image data after a period longer than the frame cycle elapses in a case where the comparison result image data represents that there is no difference between the pre-update image data and the post-update image data.

A digital signage abnormality detection method of detecting presence or absence of an abnormality of a digital signage including a display includes measuring current or voltage data applied to the display; determining presence or absence of an abnormality of the display by analyzing the measured current or voltage data; and transmitting the determination result regarding the presence or absence of the abnormality of the display to a manager of the digital signage. In the process of determining presence or absence of the abnormality, the presence or absence of the abnormality is determined by comparing the measured current or voltage data with current or voltage data obtained when the display is in a normal state.

A system for permitting a medical practitioner to interact with medical information, the system including: a sensing unit for detecting a position of a reference object used to interact with the sensing unit; at least one control unit for determining a gesture performed by the medical practitioner, identifying a command relative to the medical information that corresponds to the gesture, and executing the command in order to display the medical information; generating a graphical user interface including a virtual representation of the reference object and at least one virtual icon and/or a virtual representation of the sensing unit, with each of the at least one virtual icon corresponding to one of a respective mode of operation, a respective user notification, and a respective system setting option; and displaying the GUI along with the medical information.

Methods and apparatus for link training and low power operation. A multi-lane high speed bus is optimized for transferring audio/visual (A/V) data at slower rates. In one embodiment, the high speed bus is configured to use a packet format structure that allows for more fluid data delivery times, thereby allowing the high speed bus to deliver A/V data at times selected to reduce power consumption. In another embodiment, the high speed bus is configured to cache link initialization data for subsequent link re-initialization before entering a low power state. Thereafter, when the link exits the low power state, the high speed bus can skip certain portions of link initialization. Still a third embodiment of the present disclosure is directed to exemplary modifications to existing high speed bus link training and low power operation, consistent with the aforementioned principles. Variants of a Universal Serial Bus implementation are provided for illustration.

A method for grading spatial painting, apparatus and system for grading spatial painting are proposed. The method includes: generating a first spatial pattern; recording a moving trace and a plurality of moving parameters of an electronic apparatus and transforming the recorded moving trace into a second spatial pattern; calculating a similarity between the first and the second spatial pattern; and calculating a grade for completing the second spatial pattern according to the moving parameters and the similarity.

Techniques for selective display frame fetching can include receiving or fetching rendered display frames by a display engine. The display engine can obtain an indication of a new frame and, in response to the indication of the new frame not including an indication of a flip completion event: (i) fill the display buffer with the new frame; (ii) scan out the new frame from the display buffer to a display port; and (iii) apply an adaptive contrast and backlight enhancement based on a histogram of changes in the new frame.

An electronic apparatus includes a processor configured to: display content as a first image including a playback area, transmit data of the first image to a first external apparatus, identify whether a first user input is to request a change in a playback area of a second image, based on the first user input generated in the first external apparatus, in which the content is being displayed as the second image including a playback area identical to the playback area of the first image, and, based on the identifying the first user input is to request the change in the playback area of the second image, transmit a request, to the first external apparatus, to display the content as a third image including a playback area different from the playback area of the first image and maintain the playback area of the first image on the display.

Systems are presented including: a first electronic device operative to receive a first input, the first electronic device including: a first data communication unit operative to connect the first electronic device to a second electronic device; and a first processing unit operative to process the first input to generate information representing at least a portion of a first intended display, and operative to establish at least one communication channel between the first and second electronic devices using the first data communication unit operative and to call at least one application programming interface to forward the information representing the at least the portion of the first intended display to the second electronic device for display, and further operative to receive and process a representation of a second input from the second electronic device.
