Patent number: 10412289Abstract: In one example, a controller of a camera is configured to detect a mechanical connection of an accessory for the camera through data received by a sensor. The accessory includes a physical component that performs a function for the camera. The function may replace an existing function of the camera or supplement an existing function of the camera. The controller identifies one or more identification marks on the accessory to determine an existence of the accessory or a position of the accessory. The controller may disable an existing function of the camera or modify a configuration of the camera based on the identification marks.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2017Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: HERE Global B.V.Inventors: Vids Samanta, Andrew Gartrell, Rhys Newman, Jeremy Matters, Julian Bleecker

Patent number: 9507445Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to facilitate the display of data in conjunction with an image. In the context of a method, an image is caused to be presented and input is received via a rotatable dial wheel while the image is presented. The method also includes determining data to be presented based upon the input. In this regard, the method modifies the data to be presented in response so the rotation of the dial wheel. Further, the method causes the data that is determined based on the input to be presented concurrent with the image.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2014Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Assignee: HERE Global B.V.Inventors: Charlie Sutton, Brody Larson, Sebastian Frey, Pascal Wever, David Vegezzi, Vidyut Samanta, Julian Bleecker, Simon James, Tom Arbisi, Jeremy Matters, Kevin Walker, Pawena Thimaporn, John-Rhys Newman, Duncan Burns, Markus Eklund

Patent number: 9429818Abstract: An accessory includes a body including a dial having a surface and multiple sets of optically-recognizable identification marks formed as part of the surface. The identification marks for each set are formed to be recognizable by a sensor having a two dimensional array of pixels. An apparatus includes a body comprising a groove having a first surface configured to align with a second surface of an accessory when a portion of the accessory is placed into the groove and a sensor formed in the first surface. The sensor includes a two dimensional array of pixels. An apparatus captures, with the sensor, an image of one of a set of multiple optically-recognizable identification marks formed as part of a surface of the dial, determines from the captured image a specific one of multiple possible accessories interchangeable for use with the apparatus, and performs configuration operation(s) based on the specific accessory.Type: GrantFiled: April 4, 2014Date of Patent: August 30, 2016Assignee: HERE GLOBAL B.V.Inventors: Marko A. Sarasmo, Andrew Gartrell, Tom Arbisi, Vidyut Samanta, John-Rhys Newman, Jeremy Matters, Simon James, Julian Bleecker
