Abstract: Devices and methods are provided that spatially restrict online communications to persons from a real world meeting. Such restriction, with optional supervisory control by an authority, protects children from online predators, and can facilitate communication with known friends. An embodiment provides a portable access control (AC) device having a spatially-restricted (SR) communication port that communicates over a short range. The AC device has a unique identifier (UID) that identifies the AC device and the owner of the AC device. The user collects UIDs (using the SR port) from other people having AC devices, and stores the collected UIDs in a friendlist. When communicating by Internet, discrimination software restricts communication from people who do not have UIDs in the friendlist. The discrimination software can operate on a user's computer or on a remote server. Embodiments provide protected email, instant messaging, voice communication, gaming activities, and video links.

Abstract: A keyboard structure capable of suppressing a depth dimension of a keyboard instrument and rearward displacements of key main bodies to thereby prevent plastic deformation of hinges. White (27) and black (28) key main bodies are each disposed for pivotal motion around a common base end (20), serving as a key fulcrum, in a key depression/release direction via a hinge (24,25,26) extended therefrom vertically downward. A rear stopper (42) is provided in an intermediate portion of a key frame (10), and a contact portion of a stopper contact member (25a,30a) is in light contact with a front surface of the rear stopper when a key main body is in a key depression initial position. In a key-nondepressed state, when a force exerting toward the rear is applied to a key main body, the rear stopper applies the contact portion with a force exerting toward the front against the force applied to the key main body, thus suppressing a rearward displacement of the key main body.

Abstract: Techniques to configure quality of service (QoS) for communication are described. An access terminal configures a first QoS profile prior to a call. This QoS profile is for a set of QoS parameters that provides certain QoS. The access terminal thereafter establishes (e.g., originates or terminates) a call with an access network. If the first QoS profile is appropriate for the call, then QoS is not reconfigured. However, the access terminal may determine that a second QoS profile is to be used for the call, e.g., based on a format or a rate set supported by a remote/other terminal for the call. The access terminal would then configure the second QoS profile during the call. The access terminal may exchange data in accordance with (a) the first QoS profile before the second QoS profile is configured and activated and (b) the second QoS profile after it is configured and activated.
