  • Patent number: 11436942
    Abstract: An interactive braille display system includes a processor and a display unit in electronic communication with the processor. The display unit includes a braille cell unit and an interactive unit in physical contact with the braille cell unit. The interactive unit includes a surface layer for displaying braille information and sensing tactile contact by a user. The interactive unit also includes a subsurface layer in physical communication with the surface layer, the subsurface layer including electrodes for detecting a capacitance change caused by the tactile contact by the user. The capacitance change corresponds to a position of the tactile contact by the user.

  • Patent number: 9798314
    Abstract: Described are methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, for testing mobile devices using an intelligent mobile device test fixture. A server computing device generates programmatic instructions for testing an application on a mobile device coupled to the test fixture, where the programmatic instructions are based upon a test script, and include a first set of instructions and a second set of instructions. The server computing device transmits the first set of instructions to the application, and transmits the second set of instructions to a controller board coupled to the test fixture. The application executes the first set of instructions to activate functionality. The controller board executes the second set of instructions to activate one or more servo motors of the test fixture that control movement of the fixture. The server computing device determines an updated state of the application after execution of each instruction.
