    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are presented for controlling an application on a device. In some embodiments, a method may include detecting that a user is maintaining an object or gesture at a position hovering near the device for a threshold length of time. The method may also include anchoring an initial position of the object or gesture to the device based on the detection of the maintained position, and controlling the application using the anchored initial position. In some embodiments, controlling the application using the anchored initial position may include manipulating the application based on detecting within a stable zone associated with the anchored initial position a change in height of the gesture or object relative to the device, and not manipulating the application whenever the object or gesture is detected to move along a plane above and parallel to the device and within the stable zone.

    Abstract: A method includes accessing signal data descriptive of a transmission sequence and pre-determined values associated with the transmission sequence. The signal data and the pre-determined values may be stored in a memory. The method includes transmitting a signal from a speaker of an electronic device according to the transmission sequence. The method includes generating a frame based on one or more signals received at a microphone of the electronic device. The one or more signals include an echo signal associated with the transmitted signal. The method includes processing the frame using the pre-determined values to produce an output frame in which a contribution associated with the echo signal is reduced.

    Abstract: A user interface, methods and article of manufacture each for selecting an audio cue presented in three-dimensional (3D) space are disclosed. The audio cues are audibly perceivable in a space about a user, where each of the audio cues may be perceived by the user as a directional sound at a distinct location from other audio cues in the space. Selection of a specific audio cue is made based on one or more user gestures. A portable electronic device may be configured to present the audio cues perceived by a user and detect certain user gestures to select audio cues. The audio cue selection can be used to control operation of the portable device and/or other associated devices.

    Abstract: Methods and USB devices correlating clock domains are presented. A USB device includes at least one signal line adapted to carry signals in a first clock domain. The signals are received from a USB host. A clock operates a second clock domain. A periodic packet detection circuit detects a missing periodic packet from the signals received in the first clock domain. A device controller correlates a USB operation in the second clock domain with the first clock domain based on the periodic packet detection circuit detecting the missing periodic packet. A USB device includes at least one signal line carrying UTMI or ULPI signaling. A USB controller decodes packet identification from the UTMI or ULPI signaling. A periodic packet detection circuit, separate from the USB controller, decodes packet identification from the UTMI or ULPI signaling.

The first data includes at least one of a temperature measurement associated with the first power amplifier, a supply voltage measurement associated with the first power amplifier, a load resistance associated with the first power amplifier, or a gain associated with the first power amplifier. The method further includes modifying an audio signal based at least in part on the first amplitude limiting signal to generate a first gain-adjusted audio signal. The method also includes providing a first output audio signal to the first power amplifier for amplification. The first output audio signal is based at least in part on the first gain-adjusted audio signal.
