  • Patent number: 8207910
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and a method for presentation of information on a display. The method performs obtaining information to be presented on an information presentation unit, presenting information on the information presentation unit, presenting a selection area on the information presentation unit, determining mode for updating information on information presentation unit, in dependence of user input, detecting a rotational motion around an axis of rotation of an information presentation device, and providing either the selected area at an updated position on the information presentation unit or the presented information at an updated position on the information presentation unit, in dependence of the detection of rotational motion and in dependence of obtained user input, enabling the selection area or the information to rotate according to detected rotational motion around an axis of rotation of the information presentation device.

  • Patent number: 8203505
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a device for presentation of content-rich information portions and content-poor information portions, such as list type information on a display. The method performs obtaining of information for presentation on an information presentation unit, monitors a rotational motion around an axis of rotation of an information presentation device, monitors the position of a seam of the information presentation unit, and presents information on the information presentation unit in dependence of the monitored rotational motion and in dependence of the monitored position of the first and second ends, such that content-rich information is presented on the information presentation unit and that content-poor information is presented across the first and second ends of the information presentation unit.

  • Patent number: 8170186
    Abstract: An electronic device may be controlled with a remote control device. The remote control device may be moved in a first manner to cause the electronic device to scroll through an ordered sequence. The remote control device may be moved in a second manner to cause the electronic device to select an entry from the ordered list. During scrolling of the ordered sequence, audio feedback regarding the nature of an associated entry may be provided to the user.

  • Publication number: 20090315810
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a device for presentation of list type information on a display. The method controls the information to be presented on the display, and comprises obtaining information to be presented on the display, presenting information on the display, and detecting a rotational motion around an axis of rotation of an information presentation device, providing the presented information on the display in dependence of the detected rotational motion, such that information can be shifted out from the display and shifted in to the display.
