Patent number: 8990438Abstract: A computer system includes a receiver configured to pair with a set of peripheral devices and have active connections with a first subset of the peripheral devices and inactive connections with a second subset of the peripheral devices. The first and the second subsets of peripheral devices are subsets of the set of peripheral devices. If a select one of the peripheral devices in the inactive set of peripheral devices is operated, the receiver is configured to activate a connection with the select one of the peripheral devices in a latency period that is below human perception levels of the latency period.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2013Date of Patent: March 24, 2015Assignee: Logitech Europe S.A.Inventors: Jacques Chassot, Xavier Bize, Eric Tissot-Dupont, Philippe Chazot, Tarak Fekih, Pierre Chenes

Patent number: 8988354Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to an input device comprising a processor configured to operate the input device in one of a plurality of modes of operation, a plurality of buttons, and a housing configured to receive and secure a display device. The housing is configurable in a plurality of positions relative to the plurality of buttons, where at least a portion of the plurality of buttons operates in one of the plurality of modes of operation based, at least in part, on a position of the plurality of positions of the housing relative to the plurality of buttons.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2012Date of Patent: March 24, 2015Assignee: Logitech Europe S.A.Inventors: Richard Milhe, Tarak Fekih, Alexis Richard, Sylvain Sauvage, Laurent Plancherel, Pai-Cheng Chu, Eric Hsu

Patent number: 8386651Abstract: A computerized method provides for a computer to interact with peripheral devices where a complete set of control functions of the peripheral devices are operable on the computer. The method includes receiving by a computer from a receiver coupled to the computer an enumerator report having a peripheral device report and a device index included in a set of device indices. The peripheral device report is sent from a select peripheral device to the receiver. The method further includes determining by the computer the device index in the enumerator report. The method further includes routing by the computer the peripheral device report to a device driver associated with the device index. The device driver is configured to provide a complete set of operating function for a peripheral device associated with the device driver. The computer executes a command function from the peripheral device report issued by the select peripheral device.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2011Date of Patent: February 26, 2013Assignee: Logitech Europe S.A.Inventors: Jacques Chassot, Xavier Bize, Eric Tissot-Dupont, Philippe Chazot, Tarak Fekih, Pierre Chenes
