Abstract: A method of establishing a charged connection using a screen sharing application between multi-platforms is disclosed. A transmitting end application is installed in a transmitting end apparatus of a sharing source. A receiving end application is installed in a receiving end apparatus of a sharing target. If the transmitting end application is a charged version, an unlimited connection is established for performing screen sharing between the transmitting end apparatus and any receiving end apparatus. If the transmitting end application is a free version, the method further confirms if the receiving end application is a charged version for deciding whether a limited connection or an unlimited connection should be established. Thus, it is assured that either the transmitting end application or the receiving end application is a charged version, the interests of application developers are protected and users are free from paying twice for establishing one connection.

Abstract: A remote audio-video sharing method and an application program for the same are provided. The method comprises a content provider device capturing screen frames and sounds of the content provider device. First encoding and second encoding are executed on the captured screen frames and sound to transmit to and play on a content displayer device and a content controller device. The content displayer device receives, decodes the data and smoothly plays the received data. The content controller device receives, decodes the data and plays the received data in synch with the content provider device. Additionally, a control command is generated by the content controller device to reply to the content provider device to manipulate operations of the content provider device.

Abstract: A multi-functional image fetching module inserted in a slot of an electronic device comprises a body having a recess, a first housing and a second housing both slidingly received in the recess, the first housing having a hinge for coupling to the second housing so that the first housing is capable of pivoting about the second housing for fetching an image through an image fetching module installed therein, and a switching knob for moving a latched member from the second housing to let the first housing spring out of the recess.

Abstract: A rotating gear with limited angular movement comprises of a spindle pivotally disposed inside an object, at least one flange disposed on the periphery of one end of the spindle adjacent to the object, and an mobile limiter having a first plate extended from the periphery of one side of the limiter toward the spindle and a second plate extended from the periphery of another side of the limiter toward the object. Thus, while the spindle is rotated, the flange is engaged with the first plate to drive the limiter to rotate until the second plate touches against a stopper disposed on the object, which prevents the spindle from being continuously rotated in a range causing damages.
