  • Publication number: 20160321448
    Abstract: A keyboard wirelessly connecting to one of multiple hosts is provided. Each host has a device ID code and a device authorization code. The keyboard includes a host selection device, a storage device, a connection device, and a communication device. The storage device stores a lookup table including multiple host codes, each corresponding to one device ID code and one device authorization code. The host selection device selects a candidate host code when receiving a first operation. The connection device receives a second operation different from the first operation. When the second operation lasts shorter than a threshold period, the keyboard connects to a host having the device ID code and the device authorization code corresponding to the candidate host code. When the second operation lasts longer than the threshold period, the keyboard updates the device ID code and the device authorization code corresponding to the candidate host code.

  • Patent number: 9251674
    Abstract: A human machine interface includes a display screen coupled to a processing device. The display screen is disposed on a case and displays an image frame. In the processing unit, a comparing module compares a first trigger signal stored in a storage unit with a monitored signal transmitted from a signal source. A notification signal is generated when the first trigger signal is detected appearing in the monitored signal. A control module receives the notification signal and generates a first alert signal to display in the image frame or on the case.

  • Patent number: 9224553
    Abstract: A keyswitch structure includes a keycap having a vertical connection member and a vertical-horizontal-translation mechanism, a baseplate having a vertical connection member, a slidable part having a vertical-horizontal-translation mechanism, and a restoring member. The vertical connection members are engaged for constraining the keycap to move relative to the baseplate substantially along a Z axis. The vertical-horizontal-translation mechanisms are engaged, so that the slidable part can perform a motion in response to a movement of the keycap toward the baseplate along the Z axis upon a pressing operation. The motion includes a displacement in a first direction. When the pressing operation is discontinued, a horizontal restoring force by the restoring member enables the slidable part to perform a motion that includes a displacement in a second direction to move the keycap away from the baseplate along the Z axis. The second direction is opposite to the first direction.

  • Publication number: 20130117664
    Abstract: A method for screen display on a touch screen is disclosed. The method is used on a touch screen, wherein the touch screen comprises a display area, and the display area has a first display boundary. The method includes: displaying a first document area of an electronic document within the display area, wherein the electronic document comprises a first document boundary; detecting a traveling path of an object; if the traveling path is determined as an “instruction of moving the electronic document in a first direction”, moving the electronic document in the first direction, and displaying a second document area of the electronic document within the display area; if the instruction exists and the first document boundary reaches the first display boundary, displays a deformed electronic document; and if the instruction no longer exists, stops the deformation.
