Methods, Systems, And Computer Program Products For Operating Handheld Electronic Devices Including Moveable Displays And Related Devices

View page
US Patent:
20100039350, Feb 18, 2010
Filed:
Aug 19, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/194127
Inventors:
Ivan Nelson Wakefield - Cary NC, US
Kevin Scott Kirkup - Raleigh NC, US
Robert Flenniken - Raleigh NC, US
International Classification:
G09G 5/00
US Classification:
345 13
Abstract:
In a method of operating a handheld electronic device including a housing having a fixed display on a surface thereof and a moveable display that is configured slide along the surface to variably overlap portions of the fixed display, a signal is received from a position sensor adjacent the surface of the housing. A relative position of the moveable display with respect to the fixed display is determined in response to the signal from the position sensor. An image displayed on the moveable display and/or the fixed display is selectively manipulated according to the determined relative position of the moveable display to the fixed display. Related devices are also discussed.

Method And Apparatus For Dual Input Text Entry

US Patent:
20100085312, Apr 8, 2010
Filed:
Oct 3, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/245205
Inventors:
Kevin Scott Kirkup - Raleigh NC, US
Assignee:
Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB - Lund
International Classification:
G06F 3/041
US Classification:
345173
Abstract:
A method and apparatus is provided for entering alphanumeric characters into a computing device. A user selects a row in a character array containing a plurality of alphanumeric characters using a first input device and selects a character in the row using a second user input device. A processor outputs the selected character to a display or to memory. The selected row may, in some embodiments, be displayed to the user on a display screen.

Dual Input Keypad For A Portable Electronic Device

US Patent:
20100123676, May 20, 2010
Filed:
Nov 17, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/272166
Inventors:
Kevin Scott Kirkup - Raleigh NC, US
International Classification:
G06F 3/045
US Classification:
345174
Abstract:
A keypad input device includes a plurality of dual-input keys. One input is a capacitive input that may sense an input instrument proximate the key. The other input is a tactile input that responds to physical pressing of the key. The capacitive input typically may be used for navigation type functions. The tactile input may be employed for inputs typically associated with a particular input key. A user may manually select either a tactile input mode or capacitive input mode depending upon the user input preference. The device also may have an auto mode that automatically selects the capacitive or tactile input mode based on the operational state of the device or based on a characteristic of the input. Key inputs are executed commensurate with the automatically determined or user selected input mode.

US Patent:
20120128061, May 24, 2012
Filed:
Nov 21, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/301348
Inventors:
Scott C. Labrozzi - Cary NC, US
Mark D. McBride - Cary NC, US
Kevin Scott Kirkup - Raleigh NC, US
International Classification:
H04N 7/26
US Classification:
37524002, 37524028, 375E07126, 375E0701
Abstract:
A method is provided in certain example embodiments and may include evaluating a first video stream being encoded by a first encoding element, where the first video stream is provided at a first bit rate. The method may also include evaluating a second video stream being encoded by a second encoding element, where the second video stream is provided at a second bit rate. The method may further include providing an output that is reflective of a time synchronization and a frame alignment for a plurality of frames within the first video stream and the second video stream.

US Patent:
20100007603, Jan 14, 2010
Filed:
Jul 14, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/172785
Inventors:
Kevin Scott Kirkup - Raleigh NC, US
International Classification:
G06F 3/033
US Classification:
345158
Abstract:
An approach provides controlling of display orientation in a mobile device. Motion of a mobile device having a plurality of displays is detected, wherein each of the displays is configured to present an image. Orientation of one or more of the images is changed on the displays in response to the detected motion.

Reconciling Redundant Copies Of Media Content

View page
US Patent:
20150261600, Sep 17, 2015
Filed:
Mar 14, 2014
Appl. No.:
14/213156
Inventors:
- San Jose CA, US
Eric C. Friedrich - Somerville MA, US
Matthew F. Caulfield - Clinton MA, US
Kevin S. Kirkup - Raleigh NC, US
Keith Millar - W.Sussex, GB
Gareth J. Bowen - Hampshire, GB
Assignee:
CISCO TECHNOLOGY, INC. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G06F 11/08
H04L 29/06
Abstract:
A system can include a reconciliation engine configured to evaluate metadata in a given manifest file of a plurality of manifest files generated for redundant copies of a given media asset. The metadata describes a condition of a given chunk of media content in one of the redundant copies of the given media asset. The system can also include a manifest modification function configured to modify the given manifest file for the given chunk of media content in response to the reconciliation engine detecting that the given chunk of media content is damaged based on the evaluation of the metadata associated with the given chunk of media content in the given manifest file.
