  • ENHANCED ROLL-OVER, BUTTON, MENU, SLIDER, AND HYPERLINK ENVIRONMENTS FOR HIGH DIMENSIONAL TOUCHPAD (HDTP), OTHER ADVANCED TOUCH USER INTERFACES, AND ADVANCED MICE
    Publication number: 20180074680
    Abstract: A hypermedia object associated with an application, displayed on a display screen, and responsive to information is disclosed. The information is provided by a user interface input device having two-dimensional pointing functions and at least one additional user-adjustable input for entering values from a range of more than two possible values. The hypermedia object includes a first visual representation of the hypermedia object for display in a first region of a display screen, an associated responsive area in a second region of the display for in activating the hypermedia object, and a procedure for allowing a user to activate the hypermedia object from a user-initiated action enacted on the user interface input device. Activating the hypermedia object enables the entry of at least one additional user-adjustable input value for use by the associated application.

  • Accurately tuning resistors
    Patent number: 6862714
    Abstract: Resistors may be more accurately tuned by using an external resistor and comparing the value of an internal resistor to the value of the external resistor. The value of the internal resistor may be adjusted to match the value of the external resistor. Any number of on-chip resistors may then be matched and adjusted using the information obtained with respect to the first internal resistor.
