  • Patent number: 11583761
    Abstract: A portable information handling system interacts with a game controller through either a direct connection at a wired interface at the sides of opposing controller housings and the information handling system housing or through a bridge having a bridge housing that directly couples to the controller housing as a bridge to the information handling system, such as with a wireless interface. During a sliding coupling motion, pins of the controller housing wired interface move across pins of the bridge or information handling system wired interface. Analysis of the interface signals through a sliding coupling motion identifies the type of controller housing, such as a controller housing with game input devices or with extra functions like speaker audio and supplemental battery power.

  • Patent number: 10903025
    Abstract: A keyboard with a vibration function is provided. The keyboard includes a base member, an upper cover, a basic key structure and a vibration key structure. The vibration key structure includes a control module, a vibration keycap and an isolation element. The control module is fixed on the upper cover. When the control module is triggered, a vibration key signal is generated and a vibration action is provided. The control module is covered by the vibration keycap. The vibration keycap is exposed outside the upper cover. The isolation element is arranged between the control module and the upper cover. The vibration key structure is enclosed by the isolation element, so that the energy of the vibration action from the control module is isolated.

  • Publication number: 20190320008
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a data transfer method. First, a transmitting index of a file is generated on a data transmitting device using a transmitting data block and a size of the file. The transmitting index is then transmitted to a data receiving device. The data receiving device confirms if the transmitting index matches with one of a plurality of receiving indexes stored in the data receiving device. The plurality of receiving indexes respectively represents a plurality of receiving files stored on the data receiving device. The file is transferred from the data transmitting device to the data receiving device when the transmitting index matches none of the plurality of receiving indexes. The file is not transferred when the transmitting index matches one of the plurality of receiving indexes.

  • Patent number: 9171229
    Abstract: A visual object tracking method includes the steps of: setting an object window having a target in a video image; defining a search window greater than the object window; analyzing an image pixel of the object window to generate a color histogram for defining a color filter which includes a dominant color characteristic of the target; using the color filter to generate an object template and a dominant color map in the object window and the search window respectively, the object template including a shape characteristic of the target, the dominant color map including at least one candidate block; comparing the similarity between the object template and the candidate block to obtain a probability distribution map, and using the probability distribution map to compute the mass center of the target. The method generates the probability map by the color and shape characteristics to compute the mass center.

  • Publication number: 20140220885
    Abstract: A method for establishing a wireless connection between an electronic device and a computer host is provided. Firstly, a near field communication between a NFC reader of the computer host and a NFC tag of the electronic device is performed. Then, a Bluetooth wireless communication between the electronic device and the computer host is performed, and the NFC tag is disabled. Consequently, the NFC tag is not repeatedly read by the NFC reader. In other words, the use of the electronic device is more convenient.

  • Publication number: 20120088582
    Abstract: A separable game controller includes a first handle, a second handle and a fixing member. The second handle includes a first sensor, a second sensor and a first controlling unit. The first controlling unit is electrically connected with the first sensor and the second sensor. The first sensor is used for sensing whether the first handle and the second handle are separated from each other. When the first handle and the second handle are separated from each other, the first sensor generates a first signal. When the first signal is received by the first controlling unit, the second sensor is enabled by the first controlling unit to generate a second signal. According to the second signal, a displacement of the second handle is sensed by the second sensor.
