Abstract: Example camera and hub arrangements are presented herein. An example device includes an Ethernet connector configured to provide power and data, a camera port configured to provide power and data to a camera module, and an audio port configured to provide power and data to at least one audio input/output module. The device also includes a processor configured to determine one or more camera parameters for the camera module attached to the camera port, such as a type of a camera module attached to the camera port. The device can change operation mode based on camera parameters and audio parameters associated with connected camera modules and audio modules. Different modules can be connected to the device and located remotely from the device.

Abstract: Video recording and/or streaming apparatuses (e.g., devices, systems, etc.) and methods of recording and/or streaming video. In particular, described herein are video recording and/or streaming medallion devices. These apparatuses may be worn, for example around a user's neck, and may therefore include a lanyard. Alternatively or additionally, these apparatuses may be handheld.

Abstract: A storage box with synchronous opening and lifting mechanisms, having a shell unit, a storage unit arranged inside the shell unit for receiving the object, a lifting unit disposed at a position between the shell unit and the storage unit for lifting and lowering the object, and a synchronization unit disposed inside the shell unit and the storage unit for enabling the shell unit to perform a synchronous opening and closing operation. The lift unit is coupled to the synchronous unit for lifting an object in the storage unit during the synchronous opening operation of the shell unit and lowering the object during the synchronous closing operation of the shell unit.

Abstract: A display apparatus switchable between a first mode and a second mode is provided. The display apparatus includes a transparent light emitting layer, a light modification layer and a first polarization layer. The transparent light emitting layer is configured to display image in the first mode and be disabled in the second mode. The light modification layer is disposed under the transparent light emitting layer. The first polarization layer between the transparent light emitting layer and the light modification layer is configured to polarize an incident light which transmits through the transparent light emitting layer. When the display apparatus is operated in the first mode, the light modification layer is configured to absorb the incident light, and when the display apparatus is operated in the second mode, the light modification layer is configured to reflect the incident light. Another display apparatus and a display method are also provided.

Abstract: A storage box with synchronous opening/lifting mechanism, adapted for storing an object, which comprises: a shell unit; a storage unit, arranged inside the shell unit for receiving the object; a lifting unit, disposed at a position between the shell unit and the storage unit to be used for lifting and/or lowering the object; and a synchronization unit, disposed inside the shell unit and the storage unit for enabling the shell unit to perform a synchronous opening operation and/or a synchronous closing operation; wherein the lift unit is coupled to the synchronous unit for enabling the object stored in the storage unit to be lifted during the synchronous opening operation of the shell unit and lowed during the synchronous closing operation of the shell unit.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus and a control method thereof are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a case, a touch sensor, a strength sensor and a controller. The touch sensor is disposed at the case and capable of sensing whether the case is touched. The strength sensor is disposed at the case and capable of sensing whether the case is pressed. The controller is disposed in the case and electrically couple to the touch sensor and the strength sensor. According to the touch sensor for sensing whether the case is touched and according to the strength sensor for sensing whether the case is pressed, the controller produces a control signal.

Abstract: A system for handling multi-touch input on a computing device enables the device to handle multi-touch input where each touch input is provided to a separate application executing on the device. In response to a first touch input, a first application generates and registers a first connection point with a link component. Similarly, a second application generates and registers a second connection point in response to a second touch input. The link component then provides the second connection point to the first application and notifies the first application that it should complete a communication connection with the second application. The two applications then exchange information to determine a coordinator application that will execute first in response to the input. The information exchange may include a handshake process in which each application may request or provide information and notify the other application that it will or will not execute an operation.

Abstract: A handheld electronic device including a lower body, an upper body, a sliding mechanism and a pivot axle is provided. The lower body has a carrying surface and a recess on the carrying surface. The upper body is disposed on the carrying surface. The sliding mechanism is disposed between the upper body and the lower body for driving the upper body sliding relative to the lower body. The pivot axle is disposed between the sliding mechanism and the lower body. When the handheld electronic device is transformed from a retracting state to a spreading state, an end of the upper body enters the recess, and the carrying surface of the lower body and a top surface of the upper body form an included angle.
