Abstract: Apparatus, systems, articles of manufacture, and methods have been disclosed that include example hinges that enable a physical keyboard to be stowed between halves of a closed electronic device with dual screens. An example device includes a first screen, a second screen, a first hinge pair, and a second hinge pair. The first hinge pair and the second hinge pair enable 360 degrees of rotation between the first screen and the second screen. The device also includes a physical keyboard that is couplable to a plurality of positions on at least one of the first screen or the second screen.

Abstract: Apparatus, systems, articles of manufacture, and methods have been disclosed that include example hinges that enable a physical keyboard to be stowed between halves of a closed electronic device with dual screens. An example device includes a first screen having a first end and a second end, a second screen having a first end and a second end, and a hinge assembly to couple the first screen and the second screen. The hinge assembly includes a first hinge pair and a second hinge pair. The first hinge pair and the second hinge pair are to cause the first end of the first screen and the first end of the second screen to be separated a first distance when the device is in a closed position. The second end of the first screen and the second end of the second screen are separated a second distance when the device is in a closed position, the second distance less than the first distance.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and arrangement for detecting free fiber ends in a paper surface. The method comprises illuminating a target sample (6) surface, which comprises free fiber ends, from at least two directions one at the time, with at least one light source (1). Original reflectance images are obtained for the target sample (6) surface with an imaging device (4), and a surface normal is estimated for each image pixel of the original reflectance image. Thus it is possible to reconstruct a reconstructed reflectance image from the estimated surface normals, and to compare the reconstructed reflectance image and the corresponding original reflectance image and to construct a difference image, where the differences represent shadow objects of the free fiber ends in a paper surface.

Abstract: A domesheet assembly for use with a circuit board in a keyboard. The domesheet assembly has a dome-mounting sheet with a plurality of recesses separated by a plurality of bridging sections. A dome is attached to the upper part of a recess via a bead of glue so that only a small section of the dome is physically connected to the dome-mounting sheet. An air passage is provided between neighboring recesses through the bridging section so as to allow some of the air in a recess to escape to the neighboring recesses when a key is pressed. The dome-mounting sheet is securely attached to a printed wire board or printed circuit board by an adhesive to form a domesheet assembly. The domesheet assembly is hermetically sealed to prevent moisture from reaching under the domes.

Abstract: A mobile telephone is configured to handle business relations and business activities. The telephone comprises means for receiving a command from a user via a user interface, means for acting on said command resulting in an activation of a functional unit comprising means for receiving user commands and data, means for manipulating said data, means for storing said data in any of a customer database, a resource booking database and a cash register database and means for presenting output data to the user.
