Abstract:
Some embodiments provide an integrated circuit (‘IC’) that includes at least first and second circuits operating at a first voltage. The IC includes, between the first and second circuits, a direct connection comprising a third circuit for transmitting a signal from the first circuit to the second circuit at a second voltage that is lower than the first voltage. At least one of the first and second circuits is a configurable circuit for configurably performing operations.
Abstract:
Various embodiments are directed to techniques to automatically focus a digital camera. In one or more embodiments, a mobile electronics device may comprise a digital camera having a lens component and lens position component. A display may be coupled to the digital camera to reproduce an image with a first focal point. The digital camera may also include a focal point selection module coupled to the display to select a second focal point for the image and a focus control module coupled to the focal point selection module and the lens position component to provide focus control signals to the lens position component to focus the lens component on the second focal point. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a processor configured to run a plurality of applications, a power supply coupled to the processor, and a database coupled to the processor The database is configured to store information identifying each of the plurality of applications as being in either a first set of applications or a second set of applications. The processor monitors the power level of the power supply and is configured to disable the first set of applications when the power level reaches a predetermined power level.
Abstract:
Various embodiments are directed to improved systems and techniques for allowing a user to navigate to media content on a mobile computing device and/or perform available operations associated with the media content. In one embodiment, for example, a mobile computing device may comprise a display to present a tabbed multimedia graphical user interface comprising a navigation bar including a plurality of navigation tabs for navigating to media content and performing available operations associated with the media content. The plurality of navigation tabs may comprise an audio navigation tab associated with audio content, a pictures and videos navigation tab associated with image and video content, a still camera navigation tab for taking digital photographs, a video camera navigation tab for taking video movies, and an online and bookmarks navigation tab associated with online media content. The tabbed multimedia graphical user interface may present a corresponding view associated with an active navigation tab. Tapping a different navigation tab on the display or inputting a directional command to the mobile computing device may immediately navigate to the different navigation tab and display the corresponding view for enabling a user to navigate to media content and perform available operations associated with the different navigation tab.
