  • Publication number: 20160255496
    Abstract: A plurality of portable electronic devices monitors a user-initiated re-writing of a Cascading Style Sheets, CSS, source and/or of at least one CSS variable. A server crowdsources information on the user-initiated re-writing from the plurality of portable electronic devices through a cellular communication network. The server processes the crowdsourced information on the user-initiated re-writing to determine CSS to be used by the mobile terminal. The server outputs information on the determined CSS to configure the mobile terminal.

  • Patent number: 9304681
    Abstract: Software, firmware, and systems are described for identifying characters in a handwritten input received from a user on an input device, irrespective of an angle that the input is received at. In one implementation, the system establishes an anchor point and distances from the anchor point to reference support lines. A set of candidate characters is identified based on received handwritten input. The system estimates support lines for each of the candidate characters. The system ranks the candidate characters based on a total deviation measurement from the expectation for each candidate, where the expectation in part is based on the established distance from the established anchor point to reference support lines, and identifies a best-ranked candidate based at least in part on a smallest total deviation measurement.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for forwarding an advertisement to a recipient electronic device. A call request may be sent to a server from an originating electronic device, the call request including an identity of the recipient electronic device. The server may generate a connection request including an identity of the originating electronic device and an advertisement. The server may send the connection request including the advertisement to the recipient electronic device. The connection request may be received at the recipient electronic device, and the notification of an incoming call may be displayed at a display of the recipient electronic device while the advertisement is presented at the recipient electronic device.

  • Patent number: 9111139
    Abstract: A handwriting recognition apparatus facilitates user entry of strokes one on top of another. The apparatus, which includes a processor and a display integrated with a touch sensitive screen, receives a series of strokes via the screen. Each stroke is defined by contact, trace, and lift occurrences. Each stroke appears on the display until occurrence of a prescribed event, and then disappears. The apparatus accumulates strokes into a buffer and interprets all accumulated strokes collectively against a character database and optionally a linguistic database, to identify multiple candidate strings that could be represented by the accumulated strokes. The apparatus displays candidate strings for user selection after all strokes have faded, or after receiving a user submitted delimiter, or after a given delay has elapsed following user entry of the latest stroke. Alternatively, candidate strings are displayed after each stroke without waiting for timeout or explicit delimiter.

  • Patent number: 9050732
    Abstract: A cutting line partially through a multilayer plate structure (1) comprising at least one rigid layer (6, 7) attached to a non-rigid layer (5) is formed by punching in one operation a cutting edge (15) through at least the rigid layer (6) the leaving at least one layer (7) of the multilayer plate structure (1) uncut. During the cutting operation, the rigid layer is gripped by lateral position retaining means (16) to prevent lateral movement of the rigid layer.

  • Patent number: 9026428
    Abstract: A system and method for receiving character input from a user includes a programmed processor that receives inputs from the user and disambiguates the inputs to present character sequence choices corresponding to the input characters. In one embodiment, a first character input is received and a corresponding first recognized character is stored in a temporary storage buffer and displayed to the user for editing. After a predetermined number of subsequent input characters and/or predetermined amount of time without being edited, the system determines that the first recognized character is the intended character input by the user and removes the first recognized character from the buffer, thereby inhibiting future editing.
