Title: Detection of flip closure state of a flip phone
Inventor: KERR RICHARD
IPC: H04M1/72403
Filed: 2000-05-05
Granted: 2008-06-17
Abstract: A detection circuit that detects the open and close state of a flip cover of a communications device. The detection circuit includes a resistive network and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). When the flip cover is in the closed position, the circuit detects a unique resistive value through a set of contacts. This voltage level is converted from an analog signal to a digital signal via the ADC for input into a microprocessor. When the flip cover is in the open position, the contacts are broken, thus, disabling the detection of the unique resistive value. The resulting voltage level is converted from an analog signal to a digital signal via the AD for input into a microprocessor. Software, programmed within the microprocessor, enables the communications device to operate in the appropriate mode according to the detection of the open/close state of the flip cover.

Abstract: A private branch exchange (PBX) or other communication system switch processes a call to determine if an identifier associated with the call has a corresponding entry in a stored list of external endpoints registered with the switch. The switch directs the call to an external port of the switch for delivery to a given one of the external endpoints if the identifier associated with the call has a corresponding entry in the stored list of external endpoints registered with the switch. The given external endpoint does not have a fixed external port assignment in the switch. Instead, the switch dynamically selects from a set of external ports an available external port over which the call is directed to the given external endpoint. The dynamic selection of the available external port may be implemented using an automatic route selection (ARS) algorithm. The switch in an illustrative embodiment directs the call to an external port of the switch via a loop-back arrangement implemented between port cards of the switch, e.g., a loop-back trunk between an output port associated with a first port card of the switch and an input port associated with a second port card of the switch. Advantageously, the registered external endpoint is treated by the switch as if it were an internal extension serviced by the switch, such that desirable switch features may thereby be made available to the external endpoint.

Abstract: The vastly distributed information system known as the World Wide Web (WWB o r Web) is largely composed of documents created in the HyperText Markup Langua ge (HTML). A widespread technique for data entry in respect of Web applications is the use of an HTML form. The widespread use of such forms, whilst utilisi ng user familiarity with the concept of its predecessor, the printed form, can however entail significant disadvantages. According to the present invention however, a method of entering information into a data record is provided whi ch utilises a virtual environment. A user can direct an avatar in this environment and at least one location in the virtual environment is associat ed with a field of said data record and with one or more selectable information options for inclusion in said field. The user is provided with representatio ns of the selectable information options distributed around the location and th e position of the avatar in the virtual environment is monitored. In the event that the avatar moves into a predefined proximity with one of the representations of the selectable options, the selection of that one of the selectable options is detected and that selected one option is then stored i n the associated field of the data record.
