Displays and information input devices
An integrated display and input device including a pixel array operative to provide a visually sensible output, at least one sensor operative to sense at least a position of at least one object with respect to the pixel array when the at least one object has at least a predetermined degree of propinquity to the pixel array and circuitry receiving an output from the at least one sensor and providing a non-imagewise input representing the position of the at least one object relative to the pixel array to utilization circuitry.
People suggester using historical interactions on a device
Systems and methods can suggest applications and/or recipients for a user of a computing device to perform communication. The suggestions can be provided on a user interface for a user to select. A suggestion engine can use historical user interactions that include a recipient, a communication application used to communicate with the recipient, and contextual data to determine which application and/or recipients to suggest. The user interactions may occur in a variety of ways, e.g., after a content object has been selected within a host application, where a communication application is selected thereafter. Multiple models may be used to provide the suggestions, such as a pattern model or a cluster model that uses recent user interactions. As another example, a heuristics model may also be used.
Information processing device, information processing method and computer-readable recording medium
There is provided an information processing device including a detection unit for detecting a state of a manipulating body in a manipulation area, a state judgment unit for judging whether the manipulating body is in an input state in which a given input manipulation process is executed according to input information input by the manipulating body or in a standby state in which the input manipulation process is not executed, based on the detection result of the detection unit, and an execution process determination unit for determining a process to be executed from a plurality of processes including the input manipulation process based on the state judged by the state judgment unit or a change of the state.
Digital jukebox device with improved user interfaces, and associated methods
Certain exemplary embodiments relate to entertainment systems and, more particularly, to systems that incorporate digital downloading jukebox features and improved user interfaces. For instance, a smart search may be provided, e.g., where search results vary based on the popularity of songs within the venue, in dependence on songs being promoted, etc. As another example, a tile-based approach to organizing groupings of songs is provided. Groupings may involve self-populating collections of songs that combine centrally-promoted songs, songs in a given genre that are popular across an audiovisual distribution network, and songs that are locally popular and match up with the given genre (e.g., because of shared attributes such as same or similar genre, artist, etc.). Different tile visual presentations also are contemplated, as are different physical jukebox designs. In certain example embodiments, a sealed core unit with the “brains” of the jukebox is insertable into a docking station.
INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, PROGRAM, AND METHOD
There is a demand for an information processing device capable of determining a position where a user attempts to perform operation on a screen of the information processing device, without impairing usability. Therefore, the present disclosure proposes an information processing device including: an acceleration sensor unit that detects a tilt of the information processing device; a display unit; a gyroscope sensor unit that measures angular velocity of the information processing device; and a determination unit that, in response to detection of a first tilt of the information processing device, determines a position where a user attempts to perform operation on the display unit on the basis of a first gyro waveform obtained from the angular velocity and a second gyro waveform at each operation position of the information processing device measured in advance or a learning model generated by using the second gyro waveform as training data. The display unit further displays a screen displayed on the display unit while reducing the screen by a predetermined amount or moving the screen by a predetermined amount in a predetermined direction in accordance with the determined position.

Touch Region Adjustment Method and Apparatus
A touch region adjustment method includes: determining a region on a touch display of a terminal device and in which a sensing parameter changes to determine a grasping gesture of a user for the terminal device; and adjusting a location of a touch response region on the touch display based on the grasping gesture of the user for the electronic device to avoid an accidental touch caused by the grasping gesture of the user for the screen of the terminal device.

User Interface for Real-time Online Payment User Input
A user interface that captures the user input of payment amount during real-time online events (e.g. live podcasts, live stream videos, online games). The user utilizes their personal computer or mobile device to drag a graphic object displayed in the user interface. The amount of fund to be sent is proportional to the time length of the user's drag motion. The user interface allows users to control the input value by timing the release of the graphic object. Further, a component to display count up of input value may be utilized as part of the user interface to provide user feedback.
