  • Publication number: 20180001217
    Abstract: A removable, external peripheral holding device for a game-controller is disclosed. The device has left and right retaining annuli, each made to be a circumscribing, external fit to the respective left and right holding portions of a game controller, enabling the device to be removably attached to the game-controller. A receiving receptacle is connected to the retaining annuli by a cantilevered connecting element that extends forward of the game controller when the game controller is held in a playing orientation. This can accept a removable tab that is attached to a structural element. In one embodiment, the structural element is a lateral vision shield that may be foldable. In a second embodiment the structural element accommodates a smart phone.

  • Patent number: 9665702
    Abstract: In embodiments of restricted execution modes, a mobile device can display a device lock screen on an integrated display device, and transition from the device lock screen to display a shared space user interface of a shared space. The transition to display the shared space user interface is without receiving a PIN code entered on the device lock screen. The mobile device implements a restricted execution service that is implemented to activate a restricted execution mode of the mobile device, and restrict access of a device application to device content while the restricted execution mode is activated. The restricted execution service can also allow a shared device application that is included in the shared space access to the device content while the restricted execution mode is activated.

  • Patent number: 9261965
    Abstract: An application runs on an electronic device having a touch surface, with one or more virtual controls on the touch surface. An overlay panel is attached to the electronic device, with one or more physical actuators mounted within a nonconductive frame. Each physical actuator has one or more conductive elements configured to create a conductive path through the physical actuator. Each physical actuator is aligned with and makes contact with one or more associated virtual controls on the touch surface, such that a user can operate the virtual control(s) by actuating the associated physical actuator(s).

  • Publication number: 20130007103
    Abstract: An interactive content management system and method is disclosed that allows an administrator operating a server device to manage the presentation of interactive content on client devices that are in communication with the server device. The communication can be through wired or wireless networks. Client users can interact with the content independent of the administrator or other client users. This allows each client user to interact with the content at the client user's own pace. The server device can be configured to allow the administrator to see what each client user is seeing on their respective client devices. The interactive content can include any type of content, including active links to other content available on the Web or from other content sources. The administrator can send specific content to specific client users or the same content to all client users.
