  • Patent number: 9741088
    Abstract: In a mobile device with a processing unit, main memory, display memory and display, a context module identifies a user-context, a determiner module determines correspondence or non-correspondence of data images in the main memory to the user-context, a first selector module selects corresponding data images for access by the display memory in case of correspondence, a second selector module select data items in case of non-correspondence, a transformation module transforms selected data items to corresponding data images and stores them in the main memory, and an access module lets the display memory access the selected data images.

  • Patent number: 9445236
    Abstract: A mobile device has a location sensor and a data sensor for collecting data that relates to technical equipment. An area component determines that the mobile device is located in an event area with the potential of occurrence of events in categories. A detection component processes data from the data sensor that is indicative of events. The detection component is active if the mobile device is located in the event area. A recorder component records data from the data sensor in combination with the geographic location of the mobile device. The recorder component is active if a particular event that falls into at least one of the categories has been detected.
