Abstract:
Examples are disclosed for a conformal coating molded around power source circuitry, electrical components or at least portions of a display for a computing device. The conformal coating to include embedded microencapsulated thermal energy storage material to absorb heat generated by the electrical components.
Abstract:
Embodiments of an apparatus, system, method and techniques are described for an improved volumetric resistance blower and rotor. An apparatus may comprise, for example a motor, a casing having one or more inlets and one or more outlets, and a cylindrical rotor to create a volumetric resistance inside the casing, at least a portion of the rotor comprising a porous material. Other embodiments are described.
Abstract:
Magnetic force adjustment mechanisms are described herein. An electronic device includes a base, a first magnet carried by the base, a lid and a second magnet carried by the lid. The first and second magnets secure the base and the lid together with a holding force. A hinge pivotally couples the lid and the base. A slider displaces at least one of the first or second magnets relative to the other of the first or second magnets to reduce the holding force.
Abstract:
The present application is directed to dynamic input mode selection. In general, a system may sense a user's finger approaching a surface of a display (e.g., an imminent user touch input) and, depending on at least one trigger condition, may perform at least one output operation. For example, a first trigger condition may cause a display to enlarge at least a portion of a displayed image based on the imminent user touch input, a second trigger condition may cause the display to present a menu corresponding to an object in the enlarged portion, etc. This functionality may be implemented utilizing either an operating system (OS)-aware configuration or an OS-unaware configuration. In an OS-aware configuration, an intent-to-touch (ITT) module may utilize application program interfaces (APIs) in the OS to facilitate display zooming, menu presentation, coordinate translation, etc. In an OS-unaware configuration, the ITT module may facilitate these actions without OS assistance.
Abstract:
Techniques for forming and adjusting a magnetic tension mechanism are described herein. A system includes a first magnetic element in a first component of a computing device. The system includes a second magnetic element in a second component of the computing device, wherein the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component are to be held in tension by a magnetic force. The system also includes an adjustment mechanism to adjust the force required to decouple the magnetic elements.

Abstract:
In one embodiment, an apparatus may include a processor circuit and a keyframe indexing module that is operative on the processor circuit to map sensor data from a first sensor to a set of video data, where the sensor data and video data correspond to an event. The keyframe indexing module may be further operative on the processor circuit to identify one or more key portions of the set of sensor data, index the one or more key portions to respective mapped one or more video frames of the video data, and generate a first keyframe index to identify the one or more video frames.
