Abstract:
An AC adapter including an AC-side plug module and a DC-side connector module coupled to each other is provided. A first voltage-reducing element and a relay are electrically coupled to an AC power supply. An AC-to-DC converter is electrically coupled to the relay. The DC-side connector module has a mechanical switch element electrically coupled to the relay and the first voltage-reducing element. When the DC-side connector module is connected to a device socket, the mechanical switch element is turned on and the relay is enabled, so that the electrical power of the AC power supply is transmitted to the AC-to-DC converter through the enabled relay. When the DC-side connector module is disconnected from the device socket, the mechanical switch element is turned off and the relay is disabled, so that the electrical power of the AC power supply is not transmitted to the AC-to-DC converter.

Abstract:
A handheld apparatus is provided. The handheld apparatus includes a first touch pad, a second touch pad, an impedance unit, and a microprocessor. When an input tool touches the first touch pad and the second touch pad simultaneously, a touch voltage signal is generated on a common contact of the second touch pad and the impedance unit, wherein the resistance of the impedance unit is greater than that of the input tool. The microprocessor executes a specific function according to the touch voltage signal.

Abstract:
A method for setting a voice tag is provided, which comprises the following steps. First, counting a number of phone calls performed between a user and a contact person. If the number of phone calls exceeds a predetermined times or the user fails to perform a voice dialing before calling to the contact person within a predetermined duration, the user is inquired whether or not to set a voice tag corresponding to the contact person after the phone call is complete. If the user decides to set the voice tag, a voice training procedure is executed for setting the voice tag corresponding to the contact person.
Abstract:
A method is used for creating a biological feature data in an electronic apparatus with a user-operable controller. The method includes: capturing at least a biological feature of a user in response to a control signal generated by the controller due to a manipulating input operation of the user, thereby generating a biological feature data for user verification; and storing the biological feature data for user verification in the electronic apparatus while normally executing the control signal to perform a function corresponding to the manipulating input operation of the user.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for application procedure management are provided. First, an event is received, wherein the event defines a normal procedure and a specific procedure. In response to the event, a sensor is activated to detect a presence of at least one object. If the presence of the object is not detected, the normal procedure for the event is performed. If the presence of the object is detected, the specific procedure for the event is performed. In some embodiments, the executed specific procedure includes inactivating a display unit.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for information retrieval during communication for use in a device having telecommunication capability. The device performs a communication. An instruction is received during the communication. Information is retrieved according to the instruction. The information is converted to speech using a text-to-speech technology, and the speech is provided to at least one party corresponding to the communication.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for screening incoming calls for use in a device having telecommunication capability. An incoming call from a caller is received. In response to the incoming call, a prompt is generated to the caller, and a response corresponding to the prompt is received therefrom. It is determined whether the response conforms to a specific answer. If so, the device indicates the reception of the incoming call. The prompt and response may be voice and/or text.
