Abstract: The invention is a continuous extendable light saber toy whose blade, when fully extended, is rigid and firm enough to use as a sword, but, when not in use, is able to be rolled up into a small compact form factor.

Abstract: An ultra-thin self-balancing flexible key switch for use in portable and or mobile low profile keyboards and or keypads. The key switch disclosed uses a minimal amount of components by utilizing a thin flexible polymer strip for each row of a keyboard as opposed to using separate individual keys.

Abstract: A keyboard containing a number of keys that contain dynamically stabilizing self-balancing keyswitches that are expandable and compressible. Each key includes a compressible-expandable elastic keyswitch, a rigid keyboard base, a mechanical actuator switch, and a printed circuit board. Each elastic keyswitch includes a rigid keytop, one or more thin elastic membranes, and a compressible-expandable spherical surface. The compressible-expandable spherical surface allows the keyboard to dissipate key wobble and also compress to a very thin flat surface.

Abstract: A wearable computing, input, and display device is disclosed. One embodiment of the invention includes a band wrappable around a wrist of a user, one or more input mechanisms, a display mechanism, and a computing mechanism. The input mechanisms are attached to the band and have recessed and extended positions. In the recessed position, the input mechanisms are positioned under the wrist of the user. In the extended position, the input mechanisms are substantially positioned at the user's fingertips. The display mechanism is attached to the band such that it is over the wrist of the user, whereas the computing mechanism is attached to the band and operably coupled to the input and display mechanisms. In an alternate embodiment, the display mechanism is additionally rotatable from a flat position to a raised position, and vice-versa, where the raised position is user controlled for optimal viewing by the user.

Abstract: A one-handed thumb-supported mobile input device for a computing device includes an input mechanism and a thumb loop or an elastic band in which a thumb of a hand may be inserted. The thumb loop or elastic band is attached to an adjustable thumb loop holder that is enclosed within a thumb loop holder and is adjustable with respect to the thin sections of the input mechanism. The thumb loop holder is attached to one of the sections of the input mechanism. The input mechanism has a folded position and an unfolded position, and includes a number of thin sections containing a number of keys, and which may have one or more folds. The device may further include a display mechanism having a folded position and an unfolded position, and including a thin section containing a display and that is foldable with respect to the sections of the input mechanism.
