Abstract: A hinge housing of an electronic device is coupled to a first hinge arm extending into to a first device housing a second hinge arm extending into a second device housing. The first hinge arm has a first pin extending from a terminal edge of the first hinge arm that engages a first slot defined by a first plate fixedly coupled to the first device housing. The second hinge arm has a second pin extending from a terminal edge of the second hinge arm that engages a second slot defined by a second plate fixedly coupled to the second device housing. The pins translate when the first device housing and the second device housing pivot to change a displacement between the hinge housing and the device housings, as well as to separate proximal ends of the first device housing and the second device housing in the closed position.

The electronic device included a hinge housing with a hinge coupled to the first device housing and the second device housing such that the first device housing is pivotable about the hinge housing between an axially displaced open position and a closed position. The hinge of the hinge housing changes a displacement between the hinge housing and the first device housing and second device housing, respectively, when the first device housing and the second device housing pivot about the hinge housing between the axially displaced open position and the closed position.

Abstract: A channel state information request requesting a device to feedback channel state information can be received. Whether the channel state information request corresponds to regular latency based operation or reduced latency based operation can be determined. Channel state information can be derived based on a first reference resource when the channel state information request corresponds to regular latency based operation. Channel state information can be derived based on a second reference resource when the channel state information request corresponds to reduced latency based operation. The reduced latency based operation can have a latency less than the regular latency based operation. The derived channel state information can be reported to a network.

Abstract: A device includes a digital camera positioned underneath a display of the device that captures images through the display. The brightness of the display is controlled when capturing images using the digital camera to reduce interference from light emitted by the display with the captured images. The brightness can be controlled in various manners, such as reducing the brightness of only a camera region of the display that is within the field of view of the camera, reducing the brightness of only an expanded region of the display that includes a camera region of the display and an area surrounding the camera region but less than the entire display, reducing the brightness of the entire display or the brightness of only particular colors of the display, blacking out the camera region of the display, blacking out the expanded region of the display, strobing the display, and so forth.

Abstract: Visual content from different camera systems is concurrently routed to different applications during video call. A first application (e.g., a video call application) receives visual content from a first camera system while in a video call. The user can request to activate a second application, such as a photography application that allows the user to capture and display, store, or otherwise process visual content. A visual content routing system routes visual content captured by a second camera system (e.g., a rear facing camera system) to the second application concurrently with routing visual content captured by the first camera system (e.g., a front facing camera system) to the first application.

Abstract: Front-shielded, coplanar waveguide, direct-fed, cavity-backed slot antennas are described. Various implementations form an antenna unit capable of millimeter waveform and/or microwave waveform transmissions. A bottom shielding structure of the antenna unit defines a cavity, where various implementations include one or more dampening structures within the cavity. Some implementations includes a slot antenna within the cavity defined by the bottom shielding structure, such as a coplanar waveguide (CPW) direct-fed slot antenna, to form a cavity-backed slot antenna. Some implementations connect a top shielding structure to the bottom shielding structure to encase the slot antenna. In one or more implementations, the top shielding structure includes aperture windows to allow waveforms within a frequency range from about between 600 Megahertz (MHz) to 72 Gigahertz (GHz). and radiated by the slot antenna to radiate outward from the antenna unit.

Abstract: An electronic device, computer program product, and method prioritizes communication between participants in a communication session. A controller configures the electronic device to identifying participants, each respectively using a second electronic device to participate in the communication session. The controller associates a priority rank for each of the participants. The controller monitors for an indication from each of the second electronic devices that a corresponding participant among the participants is attempting to speak to the other participants during the communication session. In response to receiving two or more indications, the controller compares the respective priority ranks of the participants corresponding to the two or more indications. The controller selects the audio stream received from the second electronic device of the particular participant having a highest priority. The controller presents the audio stream to the other participants.

Abstract: Systems and methods of providing improved directional noise suppression in an electronic device implement a technique that specifies a direction or speaker of interest, determines the directions corresponding to speakers not lying in the direction of interest, beam forms the reception pattern of the device microphone array to focus in the direction of interest and suppresses signals from the other directions, creating beam formed reception data. A spatial mask is generated as a function of direction relative to the direction of interest. The spatial mask emphasizes audio reception in the direction of interest and attenuates audio reception in the other directions. The beam formed reception data is then multiplied by the spatial mask to generate an audio signal with directional noise suppression.

For instance, default media capture settings of a media capture device are modified to enable the media capture device to capture an instance of media content that complies with specific media specifications.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing power and data usage in a mobile electronic communications device entail detecting a sleep state of a user of the device, and entering an idle mode when the sleep state of the user is deep sleep, wherein the idle mode restricts device CPU and network activities to exclude user-centric operations. When the sleep state of the user changes from the deep sleep state, the device exits the idle mode and enters an operative state to execute any pending user-centric operations.
