Mobile terminal
Disclosed is a mobile terminal having a differentiated structure from the conventional one. The mobile terminal includes a neck band unit configured to be wearable on a user's neck, and having a main power supply unit; and a glass unit having a frame configured to be wearable on a user's head, having an input/output module installed at the frame, and electrically-connectable to the neck band unit so as to be provided with power from the main power supply unit, wherein the neck band unit is provided with accommodation recesses formed such that at least part thereof corresponds to the frame, and wherein the glass unit is coupled to the neck band unit when two ends thereof are inserted into the accommodation recesses, respectively, and wherein the glass unit is separated from the neck band unit when the two ends thereof are withdrawn from the accommodation recesses, respectively.
Mobile Phone Accessory
The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, a mobile accessory device that includes a housing having a collapsible grip and defining an attachment surface that is configured to adhere to, attach to, or engage with another surface, a user input apparatus arranged at least partly within the housing and configured to activate in response to input by a user, and a controller arranged at least partly within the housing and configured to activate in response to activation of the user input apparatus and trigger one or more predetermined functions including causing a mobile device to perform one or more predetermined mobile device functions.
Method, device and system for setting operation modes of communication devices in a communication network
A method for setting operation modes of a group of communication devices in a communication network, wherein the group of communication devices comprises a first communication device and at least a second communication device, the method comprises receiving information from at least one device of said group of communication devices, determining an operation mode based on the received information and setting an operation mode on at least one of the other communication devices of the group of communication devices to the determined operation mode, wherein information is communicated between the two devices including state information and/or instructions to set the operation mode of at least one of the other communication device of the group of communication devices to the determined operation mode.
REMOVING RF INTERFERENCE THROUGH SCAN RATE LOCKING
This relates to methods and apparatus for mitigating effects of the presence of RF communication signals. In some examples, non-linearity and rectification of the RF communication signals can become rectified in sensor circuitry such that spectral components of a frame or sub-frame timing of the RF communication signals can be aliased into the sensor circuitry output within a bandwidth of interest. In some examples, a notch filter can be employed to remove the aliased RF communication signals from the sensor output. In some examples, a sampling rate used for sampling the user's physiological signals can be generated such that the sampling of the sensor is synchronous with the RF communication signals. In some examples, the sampling rate for the sensor can be generated as an integer multiple or integer submultiple of the frame or sub-frame timing of the RF communication signals.
MUSIC SELECTION BASED ON EXERCISE DETECTION
Techniques for music selection based on exercise detection are disclosed. In one aspect, a method of operating a wearable device may involve determining, based on output of one or more biometric sensors, that a user of the wearable device has started an exercise and playing music for the user of the wearable device in response to determining the start of the exercise. For example, playing the music may involve turning on a music player based on the start of the exercise. In another example, the wearable device includes the music player.
Virtual queue system and method
A system in accordance with present embodiments includes a plurality of wearable devices and a virtual queue control system configured to maintain respective virtual queues for respective attractions and in communication with the plurality of virtual queuing attraction stations. The virtual queue control system is configured to receive communications from the plurality of virtual queuing stations and add guests to the respective virtual queues based on the communications.
Adaptive antenna tuning based on measured antenna impedance
A system includes an antenna, an impedance measurement circuit, an impedance tuning circuit, and a controller. The impedance measurement circuit can include a test current source that conveys a test current through the antenna, and a voltage sensor that measure a voltage across the antenna while the test current is conveyed through the antenna. The impedance tuning circuit can be coupled to the antenna leads and can include one or more reactive elements that can be selectively coupled to the antenna, or otherwise adjusted, to effect adjustment of the impedance connected to the antenna. The controller can: (i) use the impedance measurement circuit to obtain a measurement indicative of an impedance of the antenna; (ii) determine an adjustment to the impedance tuning circuit based on the obtained measurement; and (iii) cause the impedance tuning circuit to make the determined adjustment.
Smart ring
A wearable device is described. The wearable device includes a body portion and an adjustable strap affixed to a body portion to form an opening. The opening receives a body part of a user therein. The wearable device includes a control component, a gesture component, and/or a sensing component configured to detect input, gestures, and/or biometric parameters of the user and transmit the input, the gestures, and/or the biometric parameters to a smart device connected to the wearable device via a wireless personal area network technology to modify parameters of the smart device. The wearable device may include one or more sensors that assist the control component, the gesture component, and/or the sensing component.
