  • Patent number: 7765390
    Abstract: An activation system is applied to a computer apparatus. An activation signal is received by the computer apparatus to implement a booting action. The system comprises an external power adapter and a detection unit. An external power is received by the external power adapter. The external power then is provided to the computer apparatus. Meanwhile, a power supply signal then is generated by the external power adapter. The power supply signal is detected by the detection unit. The activation signal is outputted by the detection unit after detecting the power supply signal, so as to boot the computer apparatus through the external power.

  • Publication number: 20070159714
    Abstract: A storage apparatus having protection function and a protection system of the storage apparatus are disclosed. The storage apparatus having protection function comprises a storage apparatus main body, a read/write component, an acceleration sensor and a controller. The read/write component can perform data read/write action to the storage apparatus main body. A move acceleration of the storage apparatus can be sensed by the acceleration sensor to generate a sensing result. The read/write component is controlled by the controller to return to an initial position, so as to protect the storage apparatus.
