  • Publication number: 20200225900
    Abstract: Particular embodiments described herein provide for a wearable electronic device, such as a bracelet, watch, wristband or armband. One particular example implementation of a wearable electronic device may include a first display screen, a second display screen, and logic. At least a portion of the logic is implemented in hardware. The logic is configured to receive a communication over a wireless network, and to display, in the first display screen, a communication alert. The communication alert can be a graphic design. The logic is also configured to receive input data indicative of a screen transition input to view information associated with the communication, and to display, in the second display screen, the information associated with the communication. In further embodiments, the graphic design includes a notification pattern indicating one or more attributes of the communication. In further embodiments, the first and second display screens form a single display screen.

  • Publication number: 20170041448
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to remote configuration and/or pre-setup for mobile devices are described. In an embodiment, logic causes receipt of user information at a device, which includes the logic, from a web portal in response to powering up the device. The logic causes creation of an account at the web portal for an end user in response to receipt of the user information and a code from the web portal at the logic. The logic causes display of the code to the end user to cause the device to become associated with the account in response to receipt of the code from the end user at the web portal. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

  • Patent number: 9513703
    Abstract: A gesture-based waking and control system to wake a smartwatch device from a low-power state is described. In one embodiment, the system utilizes a pressure or proximity based wake gesture that is interpretable by low-power sensors. An embodiment of the system can be integrated within a wearable device, such as a smartwatch accessory that can be paired with a mobile electronic device, such as a smartphone. In one embodiment, the wearable device includes a set of low-power sensors that are to detect the wake gesture. In one embodiment, the wake gesture causes the device to enable an additional set of sensors and sensor processing logic to detect more advanced commands or gestures. In one embodiment, the wake gesture enables a display of the wearable device.
