  • Patent number: 9503802
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a controller for controlling an electronic device. The invention may e.g. be used to control a headset or another electronic device connected to the controller. The controller (1) comprises an elongate controller body (3) having a first body end (4) and a second body end (5). The controller body (3) comprises an elongate rotatable body section (10) adapted to be rotated by a user about a longitudinal axis (11) extending through the first body end (4) and the second body end (5). The rotatable body section (10) has a radially outer side surface (12) extending between a first section end (13) near the first body end (4) and a second section end (14) near the second body end (5). The rotatable body section (10) has a size and shape allowing the user to rotate the rotatable body section (10) about the longitudinal axis (11) by performing a rolling action using three or more fingers (21, 22, 23).

  • Patent number: 9414810
    Abstract: An ultrasound imaging system includes a probe with a transducer array with at least one transducer element that transmits ultrasound signal and receives echo signals produced in response thereto. The system further includes a console with a controller that controls the at least one element to transmit the ultrasound signals and receive the echo signals, and an echo processor that processes the received echoes and generates images indicative thereof. The system further includes a user interface with at least one control for interacting with the console. The user interface includes at least one recessed physical feature that facilitates identifying, through sense of touch, an operation activated by the at least one control.
