RECONFIGURING REMOTE CONTROL BEHAVIOR
Aspects of the disclosure relate to a remote control which may include one or more buttons configured to provide input to the remote control upon being activated, a transmitter for transmitting data, a receiver for receiving data, a processor and memory storing computer executable instructions that, when executed, cause the two-way remote control to perform a method for configuring repeat transmission behavior of one or more of the buttons of the two-way remote control. Further, the receiver may be configured to receive data from a device configured to be controlled by the remote control and the data may include instructions for configuring the repeat transmission behavior of the one or more buttons of the two-way remote control. Additionally, the two-way remote control may configure the repeat transmission behavior of the one or more buttons of the two-way remote control based on the data received from the device.
System and method for interacting with a program guide displayed on a portable electronic device
A method for controlling the operation of a plurality of consumer electronic devices by displaying a plurality of broadcast channel identifiers each corresponding to a broadcast channel in a display of a controlling device adapted to command at least channel tuning operations of the plurality of consumer electronic devices. Input is accepted into the controlling device that functions to designate one of the plurality of broadcast channel identifiers and the controlling device uses the designation of the one of the plurality of broadcast channel identifiers to cause a transmission of a wireless signal from the controlling device to a one of the plurality of consumer electronic devices to thereby cause the one of the plurality of consumer electronic devices to tune to the broadcast channel corresponding to the designated one of the plurality of broadcast channel identifiers. A condition associated with at least one of the controlling device and the designated one of the plurality of broadcast channel identifiers functions to determine the one of the plurality of consumer electronic devices to which the wireless signal is transmitted.
Methods and systems for assisting radio frequency selection
Systems and methods are provided for monitoring aircraft to mitigate potential loss of communication scenarios. One exemplary method involves monitoring a plurality of communications channels using an onboard communications system, maintaining associations between respective communications channel assignments and respective operational contexts based on the plurality of clearance communications, and in response to detecting a change in an operational context of the aircraft, providing indication of a recommended communications channel based on an association between the recommended communications channel and one of the plurality of different operational contexts corresponding to a current operational context of the aircraft.
Electronic mezuzah system, device and method of use
An electronic device, with a compartment for storing a religious script, activates playback of a stored audio file in response to a touch input. The electronic device includes power and timing components that can be isolated or disconnected so that the device will not operate during specified times, such as high holy days. Different audio files are available for selection on a server, and the desired audio file can be selected using an application that is running on a separate device, such as a cell phone or table. Provisions can also be made for storage and playback of video files in response to a touch input.
GUIDED FREQUENCY SETUP FOR CONFIGURATION OF WIRELESS RECEIVERS
A wireless receiver includes a guided user interface to enable and assist users to optimally select groups and frequencies for wireless communication with wireless transmitters is provided. The wireless receiver may automatically detect the connectedness and parameters of wireless receivers in order to adaptively display and select setup options and messages. The guided user interface may improve user satisfaction and reduce the configuration time of the wireless receivers.
Integrated karaoke device
The present invention discloses an integrated karaoke device, which comprises a control unit, a main sound chamber and a microphone assembly connected to the main sound chamber. At least two symmetrically arranged speakers are provided within the main sound chamber. The microphone assembly comprises a microphone and a microphone holder. The microphone holder is made of a soft material. The microphone and the speakers are respectively electrically connected with the control unit. The present invention has the following advantageous effect: the symmetrical arrangement of the plurality of speakers within the sound chamber allows the sound vibrations generated by the plurality of speakers to cancel each other out, such that the vibrations are prevented from being transmitted to the microphone.

Wireless radio switching
Examples are provided for establishing a bonded zone comprising a first playback device comprising a respective first wireless radio and a second playback device comprising a second respective wireless radio. The first and second playback devices may establish a bonded zone comprising at least the first and second playback device. While in the established bonded zone, the first playback device may determine that the first playback device is in the established bonded zone and that the first playback device is not currently playing audio in synchrony with the second playback device. Responsive to determining that the first playback device is not playing audio in synchrony, the first playback device may disable communicating via the first wireless radio of the first playback device and send a message to the second playback device to disable communicating via the first wireless radio of the second playback device.
