Abstract:
An aspect provides a method, including: detecting a selection of an object on a touch screen display using touch based input; providing a visual indication of the object on the touch screen display in response to the detection of a selection; accepting gesture input at the touch screen display to fly out from the underlying document while maintaining the visual indication of the object on the touch screen display, such that during the fly out more of the underlying document is displayed; and moving the visual indication of the object about the underlying document in response to the accepted gesture input at the touch screen display. Other aspects are described and claimed.
Abstract:
A device can include a processor; a display operatively coupled to the processor; a battery having a battery length; a chassis that includes a bay having a bay length, the bay length being of sufficient length to allow translation of the battery along the bay length; a translation mechanism to translate the battery in the bay; and communication circuitry operatively coupled to the processor and the translation mechanism. Various other apparatuses, systems, methods, etc., are also disclosed.
Abstract:
An approach is provided to direct data to different applications based upon the amount of pressure applied by a user of a pressure sensitive touch-enabled screen. In this approach, a touch input is received at a location of the pressure sensitive touch-enabled screen. The various applications currently being displayed at the location are identified along with the physical pressure level (amount of pressure applied) at the location on the pressure sensitive touch-enabled screen. One of the applications running on the device is selected based on the amount of pressure applied and the touch-based input provided by the user is directed to the selected application.
Abstract:
An apparatus for distance-based network resource discovery includes a storage device storing machine-readable code and a processor executing the machine-readable code. The machine-readable code includes a determination module determining a distance between an information handling device and a network resource capable of communication with the information handling device. The machine readable code also includes a policy module following a discovery policy according to the distance. The discovery policy is associated with discovery of the network resource.
Abstract:
Systems, methods and products directed toward context aware device disconnection are provided herein.

Abstract:
A device includes a transceiver, a microphone, a sensor, and a controller coupled to receive signals from the sensor and to place the device into a mute mode when the signals from the sensor are indicative of a user action to reduce transmission of the user's voice.
Abstract:
An apparatus for detecting a touch event using a first touch interface and a second touch interface includes one or more touch-sensitive sensors, a first touch interface, and a second touch interface. The first touch interface includes an optical touch interface. The second touch interface is of a different type than the first touch interface. The apparatus also includes a storage device storing machine-readable code and a processor executing the machine-readable code. The machine-readable code includes a first interface module determining a touch position on the one or more touch-sensitive sensors using the first touch interface. The machine-readable code further includes a second interface module detecting a touch contact on the one or more touch-sensitive sensors using the second touch interface.
