Abstract: In one embodiment, a wearable device includes a device body including a touch-sensitive display and a circular mechanical ring rotatable around the touch-sensitive display, a band coupled to the device body, processors, and a memory coupled to the processors including instructions executable by the processors, the processors being operable when executing the instructions to present on the touch-sensitive display a first screen corresponding to a device currently paired with the wearable device, the first screen including an indication of an operational status of the currently paired device and, based on determining a type of the operational status and in response to a first transition event at the first screen, present a second screen with its content being determined based on the type of the operational status and whether an input associated with the first transition event is on the circular mechanical ring or at the touch-sensitive display.

Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus includes one or more processors and a memory coupled to the processors include instructions executable by the processors. When executing the instructions, the processors present on a display of the apparatus a first screen that corresponds to a first mode of the apparatus. The first screen is in a first level of a graphical user interface (GUI) hierarchy and occupies a substantial portion of the display when presented. In response to a transition event at the first screen, the processors present a second screen that corresponds to a second mode of the apparatus. The second screen is in the first level of the GUI hierarchy and occupies the substantial portion of the display when presented. In response to a selection event at the first screen, the processors present a third screen that corresponds to a first function of the first mode of the apparatus.

Abstract: A computing system causes a plurality of display devices to display user interfaces containing portions of a canvas shared by a plurality of users. The canvas is a graphical space containing discrete graphical elements located at arbitrary locations within the canvas. Each of the discrete graphical elements graphically represents a discrete resource. When a user interacts with a resource in the set of resources, the computing system modifies the canvas to include an interaction element indicating that the user is interacting with the resource. The computer system then causes the display devices to update the user interfaces such that the user interfaces reflect a substantially current state of the canvas. In this way, the users may be able to understand which ones of the users are interacting with which ones of the resources.

Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus includes one or more processors and a memory coupled to the processors that includes instructions executable by the processors. When executing the instructions, the processors present on a display of the apparatus a first screen of a graphical user interface. The first screen includes one or more first elements. The processors receive user input indicating a transition in the graphical user interface and, in response to the user input, transition from the first screen to a second screen of the graphical user interface and apply one or more visual transition effects to the transition. The second screen includes one or more second elements.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a wearable computing device includes one or more sensors, one or more processors, and a memory coupled to the processors that includes instructions executable by the processors. When executing the instructions, the processors detect, by one or more of the sensors of the wearable computing device when worn on a limb of a user, a gesture-recognition-activation event associated with the wearable computing device; detect, by one or more sensors of the wearable computing device when worn on the limb of the user, a movement of the limb; determine a gesture made by the user based at least in part on the movement; and process the gesture as input to the computing wearable computing device.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a wearable apparatus includes a sensor, a processor coupled to the sensor, and a memory coupled to the processor that includes instructions executable by the processor. When executing the instructions, the processor detects by the sensor movement of at least a portion of an arm of a user; detects, based at least in part on the movement, a gesture made by the user; and processes the gesture as input to the wearable apparatus.
