According to one embodiment, a repair terminal includes reception means for receiving a setting value of a predetermined setting item set in an information processing device by visible light communication using light emitted by a light source device connected to the information processing device; matching means for matching a setting value of the setting item received by the reception means with a matching setting value corresponding to the setting item and determining appropriateness of the setting value; and output means for outputting a matching result of the matching means.

An automatic robot control system and methods relating thereto are described. These systems include components such as a touch screen panel (“TSP”) robot controller for controlling a TSP robot, a camera robot controller for controlling a camera robot and an audio robot controller for controlling an audio robot. The TSP robot operates inside a TSP testing subsystem, the camera robot operates inside a camera testing subsystem, and the audio robot operates inside an audio testing subsystem. Inside the audio testing subsystem, an audio signals measurement system, using a bi-directional coupling, controls the operation of the audio robot controller. In this control scheme, a test application controller is designed to control the different types of subsystem robots. Methods relating to TSP, camera, and audio robots, and their controllers, taken individually or in combination, for automatic testing of device functionalities are also described.

In a control device 22 having a control unit 31 that controls an NR measurement device 20 and an LTE measurement device 21 and a display unit 33 that displays control contents of the control unit 31, the control unit 31 controls the display unit 33 such that the display unit 33 displays an NR simulation parameter display area 33c1 or an LTE simulation parameter display area 33c2 in accordance with the communication standard of the selected NR or LTE, in a case where the selection of either NR or LTE is received on the communication standard identification tabs 41a and 41b of the main screen 33a.

A portable device repair machine may be configured to receive portable devices, identify the portable device, diagnose, repair and/or upgrade the portable device, collect payment for the service and return the portable device to the payee. The portable device repair machine may include an audio/video interface for interaction with a portable device user as well as a mechanized connection, inspection, diagnostic and upgrade system. The mechanized connection, inspection, diagnostic and upgrade system may comprise a conveyance mechanism for conveying the portable device among multiple stations such as a physical inspection station, device connection mechanism station, diagnostic, repair and upgrade station, and a physical upgrade station. Various mechanical devices, such as robotic arms may interact with the portable device, based in part on feedback obtained via various image sensors within the portable device repair machine.

A smart cord reel cable including at least one sensor for measuring cord or cord reel usage, a memory for receiving sensor input to create usage records, and a processor for analyzing the usage records to provide information for maintenance status indication and/or usage analytics.

Apparatus, methods, and other embodiments associated with debugging a device-under-test are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes sensing and recording a screen image produced by a device-under-test as the device-under-test is being operated. The sensing and recording of the screen image are performed by an apparatus. The method also includes sensing and recording coordinates and durations of gestures impinged upon the apparatus while operating the device-under-test. The sensing and recording of the coordinates and durations are performed by the apparatus. The apparatus is configured to physically conform to the device-under-test to allow functionality of the device-under-test through the apparatus.

There is presented a system and method for detecting mobile device fault conditions, particularly detecting defects in a display or housing of a mobile device. One or more cameras included within the mobile device are used with a reflecting surface in a test fixture to obtain properly aligned and formatted images of the external housing and display of the mobile device, and interactive guidance assists with placement and execution of diagnostics. A remote server conducts further analysis of the captured images, and then defect status may be returned to and displayed upon the mobile device screen.

According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a non-transitory computer readable medium that the processor may execute to initiate a testing process of the apparatus following a boot up of the apparatus, in which a popup message is displayed on the apparatus following the boot up and the popup message blocks performance of the testing process and in which the apparatus is to enter into a lock mode following the popup message being displayed. While the apparatus is in the lock mode, the apparatus may be caused to emerge from the lock mode, in which emergence from the lock mode is to dismiss the popup message from being displayed on the apparatus. In addition, execution of the testing process of the apparatus may be continued following dismissal of the popup message.
