The method includes modifying one or more user interface elements displayed on a user interface of a display to provide an indication at least in part of the one or more directions, relative to position of at least one microphone, of the one or more prominent sound sources (1G).

Abstract: A method for an audio driver user interface comprising: capturing at least two audio signals (1 1, 14, 101); determining a trajectory of an audio source from the at least two audio signals (103); and generating a user interface input dependent on the trajectory of the audio source (105).

Abstract: Electronic device with a display screen and a navigational input device places information items in a string along a path on the display screen. The user can move the string of information items along the path at a variable speed by using the navigational input means. The shape of the path is changed in relation to the speed at which the string of information items is moved along the path. At low speeds the path is substantially rectangular and follows the outline of the rectangular display screen. At higher speeds the path becomes more and more curved.

Abstract: Methods, computer program products and apparatus are provided that enable a user interface or user interface element (e.g., an icon) to communicate additional contextual information for an associated application or file through attributes of the user interface or user interface element. For example, a simulated shadow of an icon or a simulated image projected on an icon can communicate contextual information for the application or file corresponding to the icon. One exemplary method includes: displaying an icon associated with an application or file; and displaying in association with the icon a simulated shadow having contextual information associated with the application or file.

Abstract: An apparatus including: a body configured for resilient contortion from a neutral equilibrium shape by a user, the body having an exterior surface that resiliently contorts in response to user provision of a force, wherein the body defines, proximal to a perimeter of a face of the body, at least a first portion of an exterior surface of the apparatus and a second portion of an exterior surface of the apparatus that opposes the first portion across the face, wherein user provision of a force in a first direction results in a first contortion of the exterior surface and user provision of a force in a second direction, opposite to the first direction, results in a second contortion of the exterior surface; and electronic circuitry configured to provide consistent meaning across a plurality of different software applications for user provision of a force to the exterior surface.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, computer program and user interface wherein the method comprises: detecting a user input at a first apparatus; determining that the user input was also detectable by a second apparatus; and causing a function to be performed where at least part of the function is performed by the first apparatus and at least part of the function is performed by the second apparatus.

Abstract: An apparatus including a display, an input unit and a processor connected to the display and input unit, the processor being configured to recognize an input and embed at least one effect, in response to the input, into a video feed transmitted from the apparatus.

Abstract: A method for processing status information on determined functions in a wireless terminal device. Reference information on the appearance of an element of a display, such as a selection or a background element, and the status of status information is determined. The status of the status information, such as availability, on pointable targets is determined. When a target is pointed by a selection element, the appearance of the element of the display is selected in a predetermined manner in accordance with the status of the status information. The method can be implemented by a wireless terminal device or by a software product arrangeable in a terminal device.
