Patent number: 10139858Abstract: An apparatus comprises a transformable body configured to be elastically stretchable between at least a first configuration and a second configuration, a user input device, a user input device configured to receive user input signal, a communication interface configured to provide a wireless link for the apparatus and a flexible interconnection between at least two components within the transformable body. The apparatus may perform determining of user information based on the user input signal, transmitting at least part of the user information over the wireless link to a remote processing unit, receiving feedback information from the remote processing unit and presenting the feedback information to the user.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2010Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: Nokia Technologies OyInventors: Piers Andrew, Teppo Tapani Jokinen, Lotta Maaria Partanen, Antti Salo, Jarkko Tapio Saunamäki, Qifeng Yan, Matti Kosonen

Patent number: 8812990Abstract: An approach is provided for presenting a global view of content. A content mapping platform determines a viewing location of a device with respect to a user interface, wherein the user interface depicts a three-dimensional object in which a surface closest to the viewing location is transparent to show, at least in part, an opposite surface of the three-dimensional object. Further, the content mapping platform then determines at least one target location associated with at least one content item. Furthermore, the content mapping platform causes, at least in part, a rendering of the at least one content item on the opposite surface of the three-dimensional object based, at least in part, on the at least one target location.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2011Date of Patent: August 19, 2014Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Erika Piia Pauliina Reponen, Jaakko Olli Taavetti Keranen, Aarne Vesa Pekka Ketola, Panu Marten Jesper Johansson, Jari Tapio Selenius, Lotta Maaria Partanen

Patent number: 8630797Abstract: A method, device, and computer-readable medium are configured for guiding a person (21) to a destination. The method comprises the steps of storing an association between a person (21) and a content item, wherein the content item comprises audio and/or at least one image, determining a destination for the person (21), determining a current position of the person (21), identifying at least one reproduction device (22, 23, 24, 25) between the current position and the destination, and reproducing the content item on the identified at least one reproduction device (22, 23, 24, 25).Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2008Date of Patent: January 14, 2014Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Lotta Maaria Partanen, Menno Dieperink, Job Rutgers, Catharine Melissa Macintosh, Richard Allan Thomas

Patent number: 8543917Abstract: An approach is provided for presenting a global view of content. A content mapping platform receives an access address of content, the content including location information. The content mapping platform then determines availability information of the content by causing, at least in part, detection of the content at the access address and causing, at least in part, presentation of the content on a user interface of a user device indicating the location information based on the availability information of the content.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2009Date of Patent: September 24, 2013Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Pekka Ketola, Panu Johansson, Jari Selenius, Lotta Maaria Partanen, Erika Piia Pauliina Reponen, Jaakko Keränen
