Abstract: A computerized system for facilitating eye-free use, e.g. by the blind, of an electronic device, the system comprising an interface layer including a hierarchy of operating modes presenting a portion of a hierarchy of possible choices, each portion comprising possible users' choices within the hierarchy; and an OS for accepting, via a touch screen, selected options generated by the user responsive to the sequence of possible choices respectively, and for activating electronic device functionalities accordingly. The hierarchy of possible choices includes sequences of n possible choices presented within sequences of n operating modes having n predetermined archetypical formats each having at least one fixed characteristic. The interface layer includes an orientation signal generator for generating orientation signals, sensible by the user and uniquely associated with the archetypical formats.

Abstract: A system for creating a panorama image in real time across a bandwidth-limited network by communicating low-resolution images and selected high-resolution image portions, and registering (stitching) the low-resolution images based on shared objects in the high-resolution image portions.

Abstract: A method, a device, and/or a computer program for adapting user interface of a mobile application to the available attention of the driver, including receiving an assessment of user attention available to operate a device and/or a software program, assessing user attention required to operate the device and/or the software program, and adapting the user-interface of the device and/or the software program according to the assessment of user available attention.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a computer program defining a plurality of ambient conditions, associating a set of measurable ambient values for each of the ambient conditions, providing rules for computing a user attention requirement value based on the measurable ambient values, measuring one or more of the ambient conditions, and computing user attention requirement including the measured ambient values, using the rules.
