  • Patent number: 10606540
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein that are capable of making a state-based determination of information to be displayed on a screen region of a hinge that is coupled to other screen regions. For instance, a state of a hinge that is coupled between a first screen region and a second screen region may be determined. Information that is to be displayed on a third screen region that is provided on the hinge may be determine based at least in part on the state of the hinge.

  • Patent number: 10481791
    Abstract: A system for detecting input described herein can include a processor to augment a user interface to display a magnified input panel proximate a keyboard. The processor can also load a plurality of gesture functions associated with the magnified input panel and detect an input character corresponding to a source text field based on at least one keyboard selection from the keyboard. Additionally, the processor can display the input character in the magnified input panel and the source text field and generate a modified input character to be displayed in the magnified input panel and the source text field based on the input character and at least one gesture corresponding to the plurality of gesture functions.

  • Publication number: 20190114131
    Abstract: A system for executing context based operations can include a processor and a memory device comprising a plurality of instructions that, in response to an execution by the processor, cause the processor to detect context information corresponding to input wherein the context information comprises device information, a subject of the input, device usage information, or a combination thereof. The processor can also store a link between the context information and the input. Additionally, the processor can detect an operation corresponding to the context information and the input and execute the operation based on the context information and the input.

  • Publication number: 20180276193
    Abstract: An example system for formatting digital ink includes a processor configured to receive digital ink. The processor is to also detect a context in which the digital ink is received. Additionally, the processor is to detect a layout object in the digital ink. The processor is to further automatically format the layout object based on the detected context in response to detecting a break event.
