Phone Holder
A phone holder includes a pocket having a rear wall and a front wall and configured to receive a phone; an elongate neck extending from an upper portion of the rear wall of the pocket and foldable relative to the rear wall of the pocket; and at least one magnet located on or in the neck. The neck is foldable so that a rear surface of the neck faces an opposite surface of the rear wall to enable the neck to overlie a waist band of clothing of the user or a belt or the like with the magnet being magnetically coupled by magnetic attraction to the phone at a location adjacent the phone to support the phone holder.
Setup procedures for an electronic device
In some embodiments, an electronic device can guide the user in setting up the device for the first time or after a factory reset. In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates suggesting and installing applications on the electronic device during device setup. In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates transferring settings and information from another electronic device during device setup.
WIRELESS CHARGING APPARATUS THAT CAN SUPPORT USER TERMINAL IN VARIOUS DIRECTIONS AND AT VARIOUS ANGLES
Discussed is a wireless charging device that changes a direction of a magnetic field generated by a transmission coil, through a repeater capable of rotating in a plane, and supports a user terminal in parallel with the repeater, to wirelessly transmit power in various directions and at various angles. The wireless charging device includes a power transmitting module including a plurality of transmission coils arranged side by side, therein, a terminal supporting module including a repeater therein and disposed at a slant with respect to an upper surface of the power transmitting module on the upper surface of the power transmitting module, a moving module to move the terminal supporting module along a direction in which the transmission coils are arranged, and a controller to supply a voltage to any one of the plurality of transmission coils depending on a position of the moving module.
Input Session between Devices based on an Input Trigger
Techniques for input session between devices based on an input trigger are described and may be implemented to enable a first device (e.g., a mobile device) to serve as an input device for a second device. Generally, the described implementations enable multiple different input triggers to be utilized to trigger an input session between devices, such as for enabling proximity-based input (e.g., stylus input, touch input, etc.) to a first device to be provided as input to a second device.
Display calibration system
A system may include multiple electronic devices. A first device such as a source electronic device may supply visual content for displaying by a display in a second electronic device such as a display electronic device. The display electronic device may be a television or other device with a display. Calibration operations may be performed by taking light measurements on light produced by the display when test content is provided from the first device to the second device. A third electronic device in the system such as a portable electronic device with an ambient light sensor may make measurement on the light from the display while the test content is being displayed. The test content may contain a test image target with time-varying color and time-varying intensity, allowing calibration information such as gamma curves to be obtained on the display.

MOBILE TERMINAL, COMBINED TERMINAL DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SPLICING CONTROL
A mobile terminal (20), and in particular, a mobile terminal (20), a combined terminal device (30) and a method for splicing control of mobile terminals (20). For a splicable mobile terminal (20), according to a state determination instruction, the mobile terminal (20) is caused to selectively enter a master operating state or a slave operating state; when the mobile terminal (20) operates as a master, a display partitioning unit (a2) partitions the display content of the master according to the display screen resource of individual mobile terminals (20) in a combined terminal device (30), to obtain a plurality of pieces of partitioned display data corresponding to a plurality of the mobile terminals (20) in the combined terminal device (30), and sends corresponding partitioned display data to slaves; and in a case in which the mobile terminal (20) acts as a slave, upon reception of the partitioned display data from the master, a display switching unit (a3) displays the received partitioned display data. The content displayed by the master can be displayed by the slaves, and when there are a large number of slaves, the content can be displayed to a user on a relatively large screen composed of a plurality of slaves, satisfying people's demand for a large display area.
Mobile device securing system
The present invention relates to a mobile device securing system that allows a user to insert his/her finger into a finger gap created by the invention when engaged with the mobile device. This invention may be used on any number of mobile devices, provided that the mobile device has one or more ports included therein. The invention includes at least one connector disposed on a connecting end that may be inserted into a port included in the mobile device to create a finger gap into which a user may insert his/her finger therein, thus reducing the risk that the mobile device will be dropped when held with one hand.
OPTICAL SENSOR BASED USER INTERFACE FOR A PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE
An apparatus and method are described herein, which simultaneously promotes a positive computing experience for users of portable computer systems and increases overall durability and longevity thereof. In one embodiment, an optical apparatus enhances the user computing experience, in one embodiment by simplifying operation, and is much more durable and long-lasting than mechanical switch and dial type devices it may replace. In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to an apparatus, which enables efficient portable computer device function, field, and data selection, gaming, input, interconnection, and other switching-related functions, simplifying operation and enhancing versatility thereof, yet without exposing the portable computer interior to any degree to incursion of environmental contamination. In one embodiment, an optical apparatus obviates openings in a portable computer package which would otherwise be required. In one embodiment, the apparatus, capable of sensing manipulation and directed by software, has a light source and corresponding light sensor.
Imaging method for modular mixed reality (MR) device
An imaging method is provided for a modular mixed reality (MR) device having an MR calculation module, an MR optical path module and an MR posture module. The MR calculation module is configured to adjust display content according to data from the MR posture module. The MR optical path module comprises a virtual-image optical path and a mixed optical path. A semi-transparent semi-reflective mirror is provided in the mixed optical path. One surface of the mirror is a real-image introduction surface facing a real environment, while the other is a virtual-image introduction surface facing the virtual-image optical path. Virtual-image light is reflected by the virtual-image introduction surface onto an observation end and mixed with real environment light transmitted to the observation end by the real-image introduction surface to form a mixed reality image.
