Abstract: The description relates to hinged devices, such as hinged computing devices. One example can include an expandable hinge assembly that rotatably secures a first portion and a second portion. The example can also include a hinge assembly positioned between the first portion housing and the second portion housing and that includes first and second rotatable links that are rotatable relative to both the hinge assembly and the first and second portions.

Abstract: Accessory device power management techniques are described in which a power exchange state for a system including a host computing device, an accessory device, and an adapter is recognized. Power exchange states may be defined according to relative states of charge (RSOC) and connection status for the system components and mapped to power management control actions. Responsive to the recognition of a current power exchange state, corresponding power management control actions may be ascertained and applied to jointly manage power for the system. For instance, the host device may draw supplemental power from a power source associated with an accessory device (e.g., a battery or power adapter) or supply power for use by the accessory device according to different states. Power exchanges may also be managed in accordance with capabilities of the accessory device identified based on authentication of the accessory device.

Abstract: Display device settings are described. In one or more implementations, an apparatus includes a display device and a display settings control module. The display device has a plurality of display settings, at least one of the display settings is adjustable to one of a plurality of different display setting levels. The display setting control module is implemented at least partially in hardware and configured to expose functionality having a plurality of different user selectable levels, the user selectable levels arranged in a plurality of intervals in which, user selectable levels in a corresponding said interval are successively spaced apart from each other at increasing amounts, one to another.

Abstract: Systems and methods for adjusting a projection mirror of a rear projection device, that may be utilized to properly align an image projected by an image source within a desired projection area of the projection screen by adjusting the positional orientation of an image reflected by the adjustable projection mirror relative to a projection screen of the projection device based on one or more measured characteristics of light reflected by the projection mirror for projection onto the projection screen.
