Abstract: A system including a user interface that includes a processor in communication with a display and an input interface, the processor programmed to output on the display the user interface including a keyboard layout, wherein the keyboard layout includes at least a keyboard includes a collection of characters, in response to a first input from the input interface, output a first portion of the keyboard layout associated with a first subset of characters of the keyboard layout, wherein the first subset does not include all of the characters, in response to a second input from the input interface, select a second subset of characters, wherein the second subset of characters is from and include less characters than the first subset of characters and the second subset includes two or more characters, and output a character on a text field associated with the user interface based on the selection of the second subset.

Abstract: A virtual reality apparatus that includes a display configured to output information related to a user interface of the virtual reality device, a microphone configured to receive one or more spoken word commands from a user upon activation of a voice recognition session, an eye gaze sensor configured to track eye movement of the user, and a processor programmed to, in response to a first input, output one or more words of a text field, in response to an eye gaze of the user exceeding a threshold time, emphasize a group of one or more words of the text field, toggle through a plurality of words of only the group utilizing the input interface, in response to a second input, highlight and edit an edited word from the group, and in response to utilizing contextual information associated with the group a language model, outputting one or more suggested words.

Abstract: A device carrier for an information handling system includes a latch, an interface, lights located on a front of the latch, and first and second light pipes. The latch holds the device carrier within the information handling system. The first light pipes are located within the latch, and provide light to the lights located on the front of the latch. The second light pipes are located within the interface and the latch, and provide the light to the first light pipes. The location of the second light pipes enables the same brightness of the light provided to the lights when a long device is inserted within the device carrier as compared to when a short device is inserted within the device carrier.

Abstract: Techniques for managing a set of states associated with a capture device are disclosed herein. The capture device may detect and bind to users, and may provide feedback about whether the capture device is bound to, or detecting a user. Techniques are also disclosed wherein virtual ports may be associated with users bound to a capture device and feedback about the state of virtual ports may be provided.

Abstract: An input device includes a plurality of character input keys and is operable in a single alphabetic character input mode and a multiple alphabetic character input mode. In the single alphabetic character input mode, an individual character input key is assigned a single alphabetic character, and activating the individual character input key inputs the alphabetic character. In the multiple alphabetic character input mode an individual character input key is assigned multiple alphabetic characters, and the specific character that is input as a result of activating the individual character input key depends upon the number of times the individual character input key is activated.

Abstract: A input device is disclosed that is configurable as a manufacturing step or by a user to input selected characters. The input device includes character input keys and an internal memory. The specific character that is input by activating one of the character input keys depends upon a configuration code that is stored within the internal memory. The configuration code is associated with a key mapping configuration of a host device, for example, and the configuration code may be associated with a plurality of character identifiers for the character input keys. When the input device is configured during manufacturing, the configuration code may be programmed into the internal memory and the character identifiers may be provided. When the input device is configured by the user, the configuration code and the character identifiers are replaced with an alternate configuration code character identifiers.

Abstract: A character input device is disclosed that includes a plurality of character input keys and one or more mode-altering keys. Each character input key is associated with multiple characters. By activating only the character input keys, primary characters may be input. By activating the character input keys in conjunction with the mode-altering keys, however, various secondary, tertiary, and quaternary characters may be input. The mode-altering keys may be utilized in a temporary mode, wherein only one secondary, tertiary, or quaternary character is input. Alternately, the mode-altering keys may be utilized in a base mode, wherein a series of secondary, tertiary, or quaternary character is input.

In general, the single alphabetic character input mode utilizes a greater number of the character input keys than the multiple alphabetic character input mode. Accordingly, a portion of the character input keys are deactivated in the multiple alphabetic character input mode.
