Abstract: A communication apparatus includes a first communication circuit, a second communication circuit, and a controller. The first communication circuit performs wireless communication with a gateway using a first communication system. The second communication circuit performs wireless communication with the gateway using a second communication system having a higher transmission speed than the first communication system. The controller is configured to activate the second communication circuit when the first communication circuit receives an activation request signal from the gateway, and to establish a link between the second communication circuit and the gateway when the first communication circuit receives a connection request signal from the gateway after the second communication circuit is activated.

Abstract: In an information management system for handling digital position data recorded by an electronic pen, the pen is controlled to convert recordings of a first code on a product to position data in a coordinate system, to convert recordings of a second code to input data, and to process the position data on the basis of the input data. The input data may define one or more functional areas in the coordinate system, and the pen may map the position data against the input data and take appropriate action if the position data is deemed to fall within a functional area. This allows the pen to be dynamically provided with a description of all or parts of the functional layout of a product, thereby reducing the need of the pen to pre-store such descriptions for all products. Encryption or usage may also be controlled based on data encoded by the second code. The product may be generated, via a computer-implemented method, to include the first code, the second code and any supporting graphics.

Abstract: Disclosed methods, computer-readable media, and systems relate to position-coded products and processing data from such products. In one implementation, a computer-readable storage medium stores a program for a computer to perform a method for creating an electronic representation of a position-coded product. The method may access an electronic document file with a set of document pages and map the document pages, copy for copy, within a selected number of copies, to pattern pages according to an ordering of the pattern pages.

Abstract: A control system in a device allows for installation of application packages to impart different position data processing abilities to the device. The position data may be generated by an electronic pen, and the control system may be arranged in such a pen. Each application package comprises a license specification and an application program. The application program is configured to access the position data and device functions via the control system. The license specification provides for digital rights management and data protection. For example, the license specification may be used by the control system to verify an application program for installation in the device. Further, the license specification may cause the control system to selectively allow the application program to access a specific device function only if it is listed in the license specification.

Abstract: In an information management system for handling digital position data recorded by an electronic pen, the pen is designed to operate essentially independently of other system components. The pen is controlled to incorporate the position data into a data file object suitable for storage in a file system, and to expose the file object to an external data handler. The data file object may then be transported in the system from the external data handler in a sequential chain of transfers, with each transfer being independent of other transfers. The pen may be controlled to convert recordings of a first code on a product to one or more absolute positions in a coordinate system, to convert recordings of a second code to data indicative of a functional layout of the product, the data defining one or more functional areas in the coordinate system, and to map the absolute position(s) against the data to identify if the absolute position(s) falls within the functional area(s).

Abstract: A data management device in an electronic pen apparatus operates to receive (602) images of a product surface and extract (604) data from these images. The product surface may be provided with part of a position-coding pattern, and the extracted data may then represent positions encoded by the pattern. The device selectively processes the extracted data in an online process and an offline process. The selection (606) of process may be controlled by the pattern data in the images. The online process is operable to provide (614) the extracted data, sequentially and typically in near real time, on a communications interface of the pen apparatus. The offline process is operable to store (608) the extracted data in an internal storage (M) of the pen apparatus. The offline process is also operable to selectively provide (610) the extracted data in non-sequential order on the communications interface, by retrieving and collating extracted data originating from a specific part of the abstract position-coding pattern.
