  • Publication number: 20110040834
    Abstract: Systems and methods of providing access to meeting content via an interface to meeting scheduling software are described. A meeting organizer schedules a meeting or conference meeting with selected participants. The meeting is held with the available participants and meeting content is automatically maintained as an association to a calendar entry in the meeting scheduling software. After the meeting is completed, available participants may review content and unavailable participants (those that were unable to attend) may view the content of the meeting. Participants may further be able to augment the meeting content and make the augmented content available to all meeting participants via a historical calendar entry.

  • Publication number: 20070257893
    Abstract: A touch-sensitive sensor comprises a control circuit board and a sensor substrate which are fixed to a cover panel. Electrical connection terminals on the sensor substrate are adjacent an edge of the circuit board. To establish electrical connections between the sensor substrate and control circuitry on the circuit board, sprung electrical connectors are provided. These are mounted on the side of the circuit board opposite the side which is fixed to the cover panel. This allows the circuit board to be fixed flat against the control panel. The sprung electrical connectors are configured to extend over the edge of the control circuit board and are bent towards the control panel so that they resiliently connect with the connection terminals of the sensor substrate. This allows electrical connections to be established automatically as the sensor substrate is put in place during assembly. The sensor may be based on either capacitance or resistance measurements.
