Abstract: A device (100) includes an infrared light source (114), an imaging sensor (212), and an electrochromic filter (214) overlying the imaging sensor. The electrochromic filter is configurable between at least a first filter state and a second filter state, whereby the second filter state has a higher infrared light transmittance than the first filter state. The device further includes a controller (314) to reconfigure the electrochromic filter from the first filter state to the second filter state responsive to a user authentication event. The device further may include a processing component (302) to trigger the infrared light source to emit infrared light and to process an infrared light image captured by the imaging sensor, the infrared light image including a reflection of the emitted infrared light. The processing component may process the infrared light image by performing a user recognition process using the infrared light image.

Abstract: A portable electronic device (100) for detecting type and orientation of a hand of a user is provided. The device can include a housing (101), a display (106), a control circuit (108), a first sensor (115), and a second sensor (116). The first sensor can determine a type of hand of the user supporting the portable electronic device. The second sensor can determine an orientation of the portable electronic device relative to the user. The control circuit of the portable electronic device can perform a function based on the type of hand as determined by the first sensor and the orientation of the portable electronic device as determined by the second sensor.

Abstract: A method for determining a height above ground of an aircraft broadly comprises the steps of generating a transmit signal with a transmitter, transmitting the transmit signal with a first antenna, generating a local oscillator signal with a local oscillator, receiving a receive signal with a second antenna, mixing the receive signal with the local oscillator signal to generate a baseband signal, determining a frequency of interest of the baseband signal, and calculating an aircraft altitude corresponding to the frequency of interest.

Abstract: A method includes identifying a wafer position for a plurality of die on a wafer, storing the wafer position for each of the plurality of die in a database, dicing the wafer into a plurality of singulated die, positioning each of the singulated die in a die position location on a tray, and storing the die position on the tray for each of the singulated die in the database. The database includes information including the wafer position associated with each die position. The tray is transported to a processing tool, and at least one of the plurality of singulated die is removed from the die position on the tray and processed in the processing tool. The processed singulated die is replaced in the same defined location on the tray that the singulated die was positioned in prior to the processing. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A hall monitor system includes a telephone system, a video surveillance system, and an access control system that work together to provide a fully-integrated system that can respond to a number of different emergency events. Interfaces between these systems are defined, emergency events are defined, and each of these systems is programmed with customized functions that support the defined emergency events. The customized functions that support the defined emergency events can include initiating one or more of the emergency events from any of the telephone system, video surveillance system, and access control system, making mass notification of an emergency event by the telephone system, displaying at least one image from at least one camera corresponding to an initiated emergency event from the video surveillance system, and locking or unlocking some or all of the doors by the access control system depending on the emergency event.

Abstract: An electronic device can include detectors for altering the presentation of data on one or more displays. In a wearable electronic device, a flexible housing can be configured to enfold about an appendage of a user, such as a user's wrist. A display can disposed along a major face of the flexible housing. A control circuit can be operable with the display. A gaze detector can be included to detect a gaze direction, and optionally a gaze cone. An orientation detector can be configured to detect an orientation of the electronic device relative to the user. The control circuit can alter a presentation of data on the display in response to a detected gaze direction, in response to detected orientation of the wearable electronic device relative to the user, in response to touch or gesture input, or combinations thereof. Secondary displays can be hingedly coupled to the electronic device.
