Abstract: An electronic device may include a first part; a second part may be movably connected to the second part; a first capacitance electrode incorporated into the first part; a second capacitance electrode incorporated into the second part; a controller in communication with the first capacitance electrode, the second capacitance electrode, or combinations thereof; memory in communication with the controller; and programmed instructions stored in the memory and configured, when executed, to cause the controller to broadcast a signal with the first capacitance electrode; and detect with the broadcasted signal with the second capacitance electrode.

Abstract: A capacitance module may include at least one capacitance electrode; a controller in communication with the electrode; memory in communication with the controller, and programmed instructions stored in the memory and configured, when executed, to cause the controller to detect, with at least one capacitance electrode, a broadcasted signal from an electronic display component.

Abstract: Adjusting a cursor speed may include a sensor with at least one capacitance sense electrode, a controller in communication with the sensor, memory in communication with the controller, and programmed instructions stored in the memory and configured, when executed, to cause the capacitance controller to detect movement of an object moving proximate the sensor at an object speed, apply a cursor speed to a cursor depicted in a display based at least in part on a cursor-to-object speed relationship, detect a trigger event in the detected object movement, and change the cursor-to-object speed relationship in response to detecting the trigger event.

Abstract: A message-carrying, antenna-mountable windsock allows a car owner to express a thought or concept. The windsock is tubular, preferably tapered, and is attached to the antenna of an automobile via holes in the top and bottom sides of the front end of the windsock. Several holes are provided for enabling the windsock to be horizontally positioned regardless of the angle of the antenna. The windsock is held in position on the antenna by a segment of slit rubber tubing, plastic twist ties, or both, positioned on the part of the antenna's shaft inside the windsock. A message, advertising, etc. is printed on the side of the windsock. The sock is very inexpensive to produce and the stock is easy to attach and remove.
