The HMD device may further include a communication unit configured to communicate with the EMG device, and the at least one processor may be configured to receive, from the EMG device via the communication unit, information about data stored on the EMG device. At least some of the received information may be displayed in relation to the EMG device as the augmented reality effect. Information sent from the EMG device to a mobile terminal may be displayed in relation to the EMG device as the augmented reality effect.

Abstract: Systems and methods for mapping and navigation are provided. In implementations, the systems and methods perform operations including receiving, via a network, a message from a messaging application of a mobile device of a user requesting a map of a mapped area. The operations also include generating the map of the mapped area displaying an icon indicating a location of the user. Further, the operations include sending, via the network, the map to the messaging application of the mobile device.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for managing applications in a mobile device are provided. The method includes selecting a predetermined location within an active first application that is in a forefront state, and dragging the selected location to uncover an active second application. The first application is returned to the forefront by returning the selected location back to an original position thereof. The second application may be interacted with directly while the first application is in the dragged state.

Abstract: An apparatus, a system, and a method for transferring data from a terminal to an Electromyography (EMG) device are provided. The method includes detecting a user motion, determining whether the user motion corresponds to a motion associated with requesting data to be transferred from the source terminal to the EMG device, and if the user motion corresponds to a motion associated with requesting data to be transferred to from the source terminal to the EMG device, transmitting to the source terminal a request for the data according to the user motion.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for differentiation of a touch input in a touch sensitive device are provided. The method includes extending an object of a plurality of objects, each of the plurality of objects having a different corresponding identity, determining an identity of the extended object, communicating the identity of the extended object to the touch sensitive device, and, when the object touches the touch sensitive device, performing a function of the touch sensitive device according to the identity of the extended object.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for creative wallpaper are provided. The method includes presenting a first desktop environment in which icons, menus, applications, or functions can be located and invoked, presenting an uncoverer for revealing a second desktop environment in which icons, menus, applications, or functions can be located and invoked, and if the uncoverer is selected and executed, progressively removing the first desktop environment to reveal the second desktop environment underneath.

Abstract: A method for pre-loading contents in a cache of a mobile terminal, and a mobile terminal using the method, are provided. The method includes determining specific contents for pre-loading, determining circumstances for pre-loading the specific contents, and monitoring circumstances of the mobile terminal. If the circumstances for pre-loading are detected, the method determines whether the specific contents are already present in cache, and if the specific contents are not present in cache, loads the specific contents into the cache when the circumstances for pre-loading are detected.

Abstract: A user may manually indicate his or her location using a first IPS-enabled device and share the location with a second device. The first IPS-enabled device may communicate to an IPS backend the user-specified location and information about beacons and their respective signal strengths detected by the first IPS-enabled device at the time that the user indicated his or her location. The IPS backed may forward the location information to a second device, which may or may not be IPS-enabled. The IPS backend may also use the user-specified location and the beacon information received from the first IPS-enabled device to update and maintain a global beacon database to ensure that the global database remains up-to-date for future indoor positioning operations.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling a portable device are provided. The method includes a method for controlling a portable device, the method including finding at least one object to be tracked in view of a camera, differentiating motion of the at least one object from changes in camera input other than the at least one object in the camera's view, tracking the motion of the at least one object, and executing a function according to the tracked motion.

Abstract: A system collects localized data of elements relative to containers into a fingerprint database memory and stores dynamic input maps where the maps can be grid based or relevance factor based. The input maps represent input data or outputs from algorithms regarding the elements in known relation to reference points for a plurality of containers. A touchscreen user interface is used for configuring the display of the dynamic input maps and the containers with a plurality of container attributes, for inputting a plurality of additional data regarding the elements and the containers and for displaying the dynamic input maps. A processor receives data inputs and builds the database concerning the element attributes and the container attributes and builds the dynamic input maps and processes relevance factors regarding the data. Algorithms can be used to rank relevance factors and create specific displays.
