Abstract: Examples are described herein for inline actuators. In various examples, an apparatus to operably couple a computing device with a docking station may include: a first connector to be removably attached to the computing device; a second connector to facilitate removable coupling of the apparatus with the docking station; and an inline actuator arranged between the first connector and the second connector. The inline actuator may be actuable to cause a signal to be transmitted to the docking station or the computing device. The signal may directly or indirectly cause the computing device to transition from a first power state to a second power state.

Abstract: A protective cover for a computing device in accordance with an example includes a front side and a back side. The back side includes a display area to display notifications to a user when the protective cover is placed over the computing device. A connector at a bottom portion of the protective cover removably connects to the computing device.

Abstract: A pressure measuring apparatus includes a gage that is at least partially imbedded within a flexible elastomeric member disposed within an interior cavity of a device housing. A shock resistant member into which the gage is inserted permits fluid interconnection between the interior of the gage having a contained movement mechanism that is responsive to fluid pressure changes and a fluid source, such as an inflatable blood pressure cuff and further provides shock and/or impact resistance for a contained movement mechanism. Additional impact/shock absorption is provided by exterior features of the apparatus, including a peripheral bumper having a plurality of raised spring-like protrusions, and rubberized and contoured features of the device housing.
