Finger control of wearable devices
An object approaching a wearable device of a user is identified. In response to determining that the approaching object is a previously identified target of the user, one or more applications displayed in a user interface of the wearable device, and how said one or more applications are organized on the user interface of the wearable device, are modified based on the identified approaching object. The modified user interface is displayed to the user.
System, Method and User Interface for Supporting Scheduled Mode Changes on Electronic Devices
An electronic device displays a reminder for increasing the first battery level above a first preset battery level when the a current time is within a first preset time period preceding a scheduled mode change and the first battery level is below a first preset battery level. The electronic device forgoes displaying the reminder for increasing the first battery level above the first preset battery level when the current time is outside of the first preset time period and the first battery level is below a first preset battery level.
Cell Phone Gripper
The present invention provides a device comprising: a case shell having cavities and protrusions, a screen cover with a plurality of buttons, a plurality of connectors, and a cover light. The present invention further includes a stand positioned along the back side of the case shell, wherein the stand extends outwards from the back side of the case shell.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM
An electronic device, an information processing method, and a program with high security are proposed. The electronic device includes a fingerprint sensor and a control unit. The control unit detects a fingerprint and a gesture of a finger that performs a touch operation on the fingerprint sensor. The control unit executes processing associated with the fingerprint and the gesture detected at the time of the touch operation while performing fingerprint authentication based on the fingerprint detected at the time of the touch operation.
