The invention provides systems and method for securely inputting user data from a user into a mobile device and also for generating user data to be input by a user into a mobile device. For example, there is provided a mobile device case for securely inputting user data from a user into a mobile device, the case comprising: a microcontroller, a communication module for communicating with the mobile device and a user interface to enable the user to input the user data. The microcontroller is preferably configured to receive the user data which is input by a user via the user interface, process said user data to create processed data and communicate said processed data to said mobile device. Alternatively, the microcontroller is configured to receive a request to generate the user data; generate said user data and display said user data on the user interface.

The present disclosure provides an auxiliary device that implements both free-stop hinge and click hinge and includes a seating member forming a seating area for a mobile terminal to implement a neat appearance and a hinge module rotatably connecting the cover member to the seating member, wherein the hinge module includes a holder, a rotation member including a first rotation member fixed to the seating member to form a first rotation axis between the holder and the seating member, and a second rotation member fixed to the cover member to form a second rotation axis between the holder and the cover member, the second rotation axis being parallel with the first rotation axis, and an elastic member configured to elastically press the rotation member to prevent a rotation due to a predetermined magnitude of force or less.

Presented are one or more embodiments of a device which includes a case and a sensor device. The case includes a first indent configured to secure an electronic device, the first indent in a first side of the case, a second indent in a second side of the case opposite the first side, the second indent extending from a first edge of the case in a first direction such that second indent is open at the first edge of the case, and a securing device in the second indent. The sensor device includes an outer casing configured to slide in the first direction in the second indent and at least partially prevented from leaving the second indent by the securing device, and a sensor at least partially in the outer casing.

In accordance with some embodiments, an apparatus and methods for providing alternative communications are provided. The apparatus may include a housing arranged to hold a personal communication device. The apparatus may provide an additional communication path for the personal communication device which was previously not there. In some embodiments, an additional communication mechanism may be provided for a newer telecommunication standard or form of communication. In another embodiment, an added close proximity data communication device may be provided, which enables a personal communication device to perform in close proximity standards that it otherwise may not be able to.

A UV-C emitting phone case is provided that includes a main body defining a receiving cavity and a perimeter configured to receive and hold a mobile phone, surround a perimeter and a back portion of the phone. The phone case includes at least one UV-C light emitting diode (LED) positioned in the main body of the phone case and exposed on a back side of the phone case. It further includes a window for exposing the UV-C LED and optionally having a color metric to indicate if the light is being emitted, a power source built into the phone case and connected to the UV-C LED; an on/off switch coupled to the power source configured to activate and deactivate the UV-C LED; and an optional distance sensor to indicate a distance from a target surface to the UV-C LED.

A voice-enabled external smart battery processing system is provided. At least one sensor includes a microphone and is configured to identify an input audio signal from a user. A low-power processor is configured to process the input audio signal and initiate a voice assistant session for a host device. A battery is configured to provide power to the processor and the host device, while a display provides visual output based on the input audio signal.

A protective arrangement for an electronic device includes a flexible cover having a panel and a skirt that form an interior cavity to receive an electronic device; and an adapter fixedly positioned in the flexible cover and having a male plug with connectors extending into the interior cavity of the flexible cover for mating with a female socket of the device and a contactor with contacts adjacent outwardly from the flexible cover and electrically coupled to one or more of the connectors of the plug. A docking cradle or external adapter can receive the electronic device and cover.

A smart controller with a sensor, according to one embodiment of the present inventive concept, communicates wirelessly with a mobile terminal and has a sensor for providing, to the mobile terminal, biometric information of a user or external environmental information, the smart controller comprising: a body; an input button unit which is arranged on the upper surface or a side surface of the body and which generates a control signal for the mobile terminal by means of operation by the user; a sensor for detecting biometric information of the user or external environmental information; and a control unit which is arranged inside the body and which receives an input of a detection value of the sensor and delivers same to the mobile terminal.

A protective case for a mobile device, the case having a housing sized and configured to cradle the mobile device without obstructing access to a user interface of the mobile device, the housing including an integrated, retractable stun gun component.

A secure cellular communication system comprises a modified smartphone mated with a security pack. A Cryptographic module within the security pack encrypts all cellular outgoing data and decrypts cellular incoming data. The modified smartphone is modified to rout all cellular outgoing data and incoming data via the Cryptographic module within the security pack. The cellular MODEM may reside within the security pack while the phone's cellular MODEM is disabled, or the phone's cellular MODEM may be used.
