  • Patent number: 10009872
    Abstract: An operating method of a mobile device includes determining a plurality of moving directions of a mobile device corresponding to a plurality of time points according to an acceleration sensing signal; determining a plurality of distances between the mobile device and an external wireless signal transmitter corresponding to the time points according to a wireless signal from the external wireless signal transmitter; calculating an average moving speed of the mobile device according to the moving directions and the distances between the mobile device and the external wireless signal transmitter; estimating an estimating moving direction of the mobile device according to the moving directions; and selectively outputting an operating requirement according to the average moving speed and the estimating moving direction of the mobile device, to make an external device operates an instruction corresponding to the operating requirement.

  • Publication number: 20150113263
    Abstract: A method for updating a basic input/output system of a server is disclosed. The method can be done by that of activating a customer end server; a BIOS initializing a network interface card; the customer end server linking a management end server; transmitting a product serial number of the customer end server and a version of the BIOS to the management end server for determination; if the management end server determines that the BIOS does need to be updated, the customer end server downloading the latest BIOS; the customer end server directly accessing a flash memory in the customer end server via an access program code in the BIOS, so as to burn the latest BIOS into the flash memory. Hence the customer end server automatically updates the BIOS therein while in a POST (power-on self-test) without entering into an operating system.
