Abstract: A method includes displaying a first screen of a keyboard area having an upper pseudo-image part, a lower pseudo-image part, and multiple image-pixel keys, changing a Unicode character in one of the upper pseudo-image part and the lower pseudo-image part into a first non-blank Unicode character in the first screen in response to a first image-pixel key input, displaying a second screen of the keyboard area different from the first screen, providing the upper pseudo-image part in a text input area in response to a first image-part key input, providing a word in the text input area in response to at least one letter key input, and providing the lower pseudo-image part in the text input area in response to a second image-part key input.

Abstract: A method for inputting characters capable of being performed in a device is disclosed. The device is configured to input characters in a text input area that is displayed on the device itself or on an external display device. The method for inputting characters includes receiving, at the device, a key input which corresponds to a language character to be inputted in the text input area, and causing the device to input a plurality of Unicode characters in the text input area in response to the key input, the plurality of Unicode characters representing a shape of the language character over at least two text lines.

Abstract: Panoramic camera systems are disclosed. The panoramic camera systems include a panoramic lens with a wide field of view, a video sensor and a processor module contained in a camera body that remains outside the field of view of the lens. The panoramic camera systems may also capture audio sounds and may include various types of motion sensors. Mounting assemblies and charging cradles for the camera systems are also disclosed. Methods for processing panoramic video image data are disclosed. Methods and devices for displaying video images are also disclosed.

Abstract: A locking device structured to maintain an activating plunger of a dispenser assembly in an inoperative position, subsequent to dispensing, so as to facilitate a single-use operation thereof and thereby preclude the potential confusion between a used and an unused single-use dispensing device. The locking device includes a body disposed in receiving relation to the plunger as it moves from an operative position to an inoperative position. A locking structure connected to the body is disposed to frictionally engage the plunger in movement restricting relation during its passage from the operative position to the inoperative position. Such frictional engagement is sufficient to restrict movement of the plunger back into the operative position once the material has been dispensed.
