Sony reveals a few HDTV Features on the Drawing Board

1 - Sony Reveals a few HDTV Features on the Drawing Board
Even though it's been called the idiot box by all of us at one point in time, it's still where many of us end up in front of when our never ending day gives us an hour or two to kill. All we want is to turn off the net and get a little entertainment that's a little more polished – be it a movie, TV show, video game or even a little music. The biggest and coolest thing to come to TV of late has been the shift to the flat screen. Playing video games on these units in 1080p is just phenomenal. Yet the question always is: what's next? In today's report we take a look at four recent Sony patents that definitely provide us with a peek at what they're working on. Some of the ideas are rather interesting and are bound to be features that we'll all take for granted in just a matter of years. And again we'll ask the same old question: What's next? When it comes to the idiot box we're still hopeful that one day it will joint its brethren in the smart-device category. Yes, the smart TV is coming to a showroom near you, one day; and all of us idiots just said Amen.

Apple Wins a Foundational 3D Interface Patent that Might be Timely

1 - Apple Wins a Foundational 3D Interface Patent that Might be Timely
On February 28, 2012, the US Patent & Trademark Office published a granted patent from Apple that could be considered a foundational 3D interface patent. The patent describes a new "transition engine" that will be added to OS X and iOS. This new engine will allow a user to choose a tiny object on their new 3D desktop and zoom it out to see what it is or to read a filed PDF or view a photo or video and then allow it to zoom back to the position on their desktop with a cross fading effect in play. It could also transition using an animated effect. So instead of clicking on the object to open it, the user will have the ability to simply zoom an image or app in and out with ease. When you think about it awhile, it's one of the coolest and most refreshing ideas that I've read about in some time.

Apple Wins Patents for Telephonic MacBook & Morphing Device Interfaces

1 - Apple patents, Telephonic MacBook, Morphing Device Interfaces
On February 28, 2012, The US Patent and Trademark Office officially published a series of twenty-four newly granted patents for Apple Inc. today. In our second report of the day we primarily focus on two patents. One involves yet another win for Apple's future Telephonic MacBook and the other for a dynamic input graphic display. The latter patent is really interesting as Apple envisions how a device interface could one day morph depending on its orientation. Some of the ideas may have been implemented in iOS devices already, but others could still be on the drawing board for a future device.

Is Samsung Preparing to Storm the Gaming Market?

1PA - Is Samsung Preparing to Storm the Gaming Market
Who would have thought of Samsung storming the Kitchen Appliances market years ago? Who could have guessed that they would storm and succeed in both the Android smartphone market as well as challenge Apple's iPad? So when a 2012 Samsung patent illustrates that they already have a working model of a multiplayer, multiplatform gaming system in the works, you have to take them very seriously. Is Samsung preparing to storm the gaming market? Only time will tell.

Google Patent Reveals New Docking Station Concepts

1 PA - Google Patent Reveals New Docking Station Concepts
Earlier this month both Business Insider and eWeek made it abundantly clear that they thought Google's foray into hardware, beginning with a music gadget for the home, would be a disastrous move. Well, according to a new Google patent, they've have their sights on making hardware as far back as Q3 2010. Google's patent clearly illustrates their desire to deliver not one, but two distinct Android phone docks. One is aimed for the desktop market while the other is aimed for the car dock market. In particular, the car dock model will offer users a series of unique apps including one for full turn-by-turn navigation. At the end of the day, Google's delivery of some common ground devices designed to serve the entire Android ecosystem only makes sense.

Microsoft Invents New Kinect Feature Called the "Seekbar"

1 - Microsoft Invents New Kinect Feature Called teh Seekbar
At this year's CES, Microsoft's CEO Steve Ballmer revealed that Kinect was coming to the PC – and on February one they introduced Kinect for Windows. Even though we're not quite sure what Kinect for Windows will offer PC users, a new Microsoft patent application reveals that Kinect will in fact work with documents. Microsoft's latest Kinect related patent focuses on a new feature called the Seekbar. The patent also hints that the Natural User Interface associated with Kinect will work itself into future computers, tablets and phones that have integrated cameras. Considering that it's been reported that Microsoft is already in the early stages of licensing its Kinect technology to the likes of Vizio and Sony, it's only a matter of time before we find that Kinect is integrated into our computer displays and beyond. With Google developing a voice activated TV Remote and Apple thinking of one utilizing Siri and 3D Motion, the race is on to deliver the next TV related Killer App – the Smart Remote. Today, we get a tiny glimpse of what Microsoft has on Kinect's drawing board.

Google Invents an Original Search Gesture for Future Devices

1 - Google invents an Original Search Gesture for future Devices
Google has invented an original search based gesture for future Android devices. In some cases, the new "continuous gestures" will allow a user to simply and quickly draw a circle around what they want to search for in the form of the letter "g" or in the combination of "g + o" as noted in our cover graphic above. When the user lifts their finger from the display, the search is automatically initiated. If a user wishes to use another search engine such as Yahoo or Wikipedia, they simply use a different continuous gesture in the form of the letter "S." This will trigger a pop-up menu with search engine options such as Wikipedia, Yahoo or others. Being that it's a new gesture concept, Google has gone to extraordinary lengths to explain this concept to both users and realistically, the USPTO examiners, to ensure that they nail this gesture as their own going forward. Our report tries to accommodate Google's presentation, and if you're not the reading type, then pretend that's it's a Playboy article and only look at the pictures.

Google Patent Clearly Eying the Desktop Market for Android

1 - Google is Clearly Eying the Desktop Market in New Patent
A recent patent filing by Google surprisingly indicates that they're seriously eying the desktop and notebook markets for Android. Interestingly, the patent seems to focus on similar capabilities now found in Apple's Multi-Touch Trackpad and Magic Trackpad. In many ways that's understandable considering that Google is working on the Android for x86 project along with a serious list of other Intel-Android related projects. Android is headed for the desktop and today's report lays out Google's specific work on trackpad operations corresponding to touchscreen events.

Google Developing Siri-Like User Interface for Google TV

1A - Google Developing Siri-Like UI to control Google TV
Just six days prior to Apple officially launching iCloud and Siri, Google was rushing their patent application to the US Patent and Trademark Office covering a new Google TV remote and/or application. The new remote will use voice controls associated with Google's own cloud services. The user will be able to use their Android Phone as the remote to make inquiries about TV shows and the TV will list what's available as illustrated in our cover graphic. Apple has had a similar feature under Remote for several years now, but it doesn't relate to live TV as Google's will. Google's real competitor on this particular front will come from Samsung who just announced their latest TV remote with voice controls and a touch pad. The race to bring the best next generation TV Remote to market is officially on.

Apple Files New iChat Trademark while transitioning to "Messages"

1 - Apple - new ichat TM while transitioning to Messages
The US Patent & Trademark Office published Apple's latest trademark application for "iChat." The new filing updates the underlying International Class foundation for iChat so as to better protect it going forward. Then again, going forward may have a limited life span. Apple's new "Messages" Beta is now available for download which when installed, replaces iChat. Although Apple states that "iChat will continue to work" on certain OS versions right up to OS X Lion, it won't for those upgrading to the next iteration of OS X dubbed "Mountain Lion" that's due to be released this summer. But until iChat finally fades into the sunset, Apple wants it better protected.

Apple to Add Storyboard Tools to iMovie & Final Cut Pro X

1 - Apple to Add Storyboard Tools to iMove & Final Cut Pro X
Last week a patent filing revealed that Apple is planning to bring a teleprompter tool to both iMovie and Final Cut Pro X sometime in the future. This week, the adventure deepens. Apple now reveals that they're also thinking about bringing a new and novel Storyboard tool to both programs. This must have been an idea that Steve Jobs brought to the table being that it was an everyday tool used by his Pixar team. And to close off our report, we reveal an interesting patent figure that was published today that might have been an accident. The patent figure shows us a never seen before iPhone accessory. Time will tell if the idea ever pans out, but you should check it and weigh-in for yourself.

Apple is Out to Make Sharing Media on Your iPhone a lot Easier

1 - Apple is Out to Make Sharing Media on your iPhone a lot Easier
On February 16, 2012, the US Patent & Trademark Office published a patent application from Apple that revealed an all new binding protocol designed to allow users to automatically or manually bind attachments easily to a phone call or even a voicemail message. Additionally, the media could be transferred during or after the phone call. Another feature describes how sent photos, for example, could automatically be opened on the receiving end in a photo viewer or editing application. Today's report illustrates several interesting iPhone interface features associated with Apple's new binding protocol. This is an extremely practical patent, especially for social networking types wanting to share photos quickly and conveniently with their friends and those in the enterprise that need to exchange documents on the go with their office and/or clients.

Google Patent Reveals Future Unlock Features for Android Devices

1 - Google patent reveals future unlock features for Android Devices
Back in October 2011 we reported that Apple's "Slide to Unlock" patent stirred up a hornet's nest in Taiwan and we now see that Apple has filed another patent infringement lawsuit against Samsung over this feature. On Tuesday, Apple's CEO Tim Cook stated during a Goldman Sachs conference that he loved competition – as long as they invented their own stuff. While it's pretty clear that Samsung has copied Apple's slide to unlock feature on certain smartphones, relief may be on the way. A new Google patent application that was published by the by the US Patent and Trademark Office earlier this month, reveals that Google will offer Android OEMs new options to unlock future Android devices. One method simply involves using voice recognition while a second method involves a nifty two-icon methodology. Although Google's alternative unlocking feature based on face recognition method has been compromised, it now appears that Google has finally found a few new tricks to unlock future Android devices while avoiding patent infringement trouble with Apple. That's something that Samsung will be very glad to get their hands on – sooner rather than later. Report Updated Feb. 17, 2012

Apple may Breathe New Life into their Video Headset Project While Sharp Ramps-Up IGZO Displays for Tablets this Month

1 - Apple may breathe new life into video headset Project and More
A recent rumor report stated that Google would soon be releasing new video glasses into the market – yet concluded by stating that "the product is still a very long way from being finished." It also stated that Google's prototype looked like a pair of Oakley glasses. That's a humorous example considering that their newly acquired Motorola tried pushing these glasses back in 2005 and failed miserably. Though at the end of the day, there's no doubt that one of these days video glasses will emerge from either Google or Apple – who just happens to have a granted patent on such a device. Interestingly a recent market development has come to light that could give both of these video headset projects a little push in the right direction. We'll take a look at that development that could make the difference. Additionally, our report takes a look at new information that arose during a financial conference with Sharp's President earlier this month that briefly touched on their upcoming IGZO displays for tablets. The question is, which company will be first to introduce these new displays into the market?

A Riveting Read: Apple Files a Complaint for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief against Motorola

1 - cover graphic - Apple v Moto Mobility Feb 2012
Late yesterday, Apple Inc. (US) and Apple Sales International (Ireland) filed a Complaint for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief against Motorola Mobility in the Southern District of California, San Diego Office. Apple's complaint before the court states that this is a lawsuit asserting claims for breach of contract, declaratory, and injunctive relief on one of Motorola's patents. Apple claims that they're entitled to a permanent anti-suit injunction enjoining Motorola from continuing to prosecute litigation in Germany alleging that Apple infringes its patents by virtue of incorporating Qualcomm chips into its products. Qualcomm has informed Apple that they have already paid Motorola for the licenses and covenants for Qualcomm and its customers, including Apple. What makes this court document such a riveting read is that it walks us through the entire battle Apple is having with Motorola through the German Courts. It discusses the adjoining arguments surrounding standards-essential patents or what is known as Fair, Reasonable, and Non-Discriminatory or "FRAND" terms and how Motorola is attempting to halt sales of Apple's hottest iPhone to date: the iPhone 4S. This is all done without the need for IP talking heads to interpret the events. This is Apple's full accounting of the events as they perceive them to be and on that basis alone it's worth a read. This report includes the full body of Apple's formal document before the court. While android fans have openly attacked Apple as being the evil one on all patent fronts over the last year, Pando Daily asks this question this week: Will Google Become the New Patent Villain? The powerful case that Apple makes before the court does in fact make one wonder that aloud.

Apple to Add Teleprompter Tools to iMovie and Final Cut Pro

1 - Apple to Add Teleprompter Tools to iMovie and Final Cut Pro
Yesterday, the US Patent & Trademark Office published a patent application from Apple that revealed their intent to add a new teleprompter feature to both iMovie and Final Cut Pro. Sometime in the future you'll be able to both film yourself on an iPad while reading your very own script like the pros. This is Apple's second patent relating to future iReporter tools for iOS devices. Is it a trend? Well, last March, KBTV anchor-reporter Mike McNeill was the first person to shoot a news segment using the iPad 2 and Apple may want to tap into this new trend relating to Street Reporting. While this type of reporting won't be mainstream anytime soon, it surely has its place in impromptu situations or for informal video casts. This is Patently Apple reporting live for J-A-C-K news.

Apple Envisions iOS Devices Having Integrated Touch Zones

1 Apple envisions iOS devices having Integrated Touch Zones
According to patent records, Apple has been dreaming and working on the smart bezel since 2005 – which actually predates the iPhone. In 2010, the smart bezel project began to gather some real steam and today the project takes an interesting twist. The difference this time around, is that touch zones aren't being limited to just the bezel. No, this time around, Apple is considering the use of touch zones on any surface that makes sense for a given application, be it the iBook or video games. It could equally be applied to an iPad or a television. Now that Apple has proven that touch zones actually work by releasing their Magic Trackpad into the market in 2010, Apple seems to now think that it's time to advance this technology to iOS devices. When you add this specific patent to the other great inventions published today covering coded magnet applications and a new 3D GUI option, it's clear that Apple has some definite plans of taking iOS devices to the next level in the coming years. Let's hope that the Crazy Ones push some of these great ideas to market sooner rather than later.

Apple Working on Hot 3D Eye-Tracking Interface for Gaming & iPhone!

1
On February 10, 2012, the US Patent & Trademark Office published a patent application from Apple that reveals a hot 3D eye-tracking based interface that will be used for gaming, digital photography and videography, biometrics and surveillance applications while being an OS feature option for iOS devices and Apple's iMac. The technology may work in conjunction with Apple's previous work on 3D which touched on head tracking and unique ambient light feature technologies. Apple wowed us earlier this year with a patent which demonstrated that they're paving the way for a new 3D GUI. Today's patent adds fuel to that fire. Apple's 3D GUI patent trend is really picking up momentum and you have to wonder when they'll release this beast into the wild!

Apple Reveals Powerful Magnet Coded Apps for iPad & Sporting Gear

1 - Apple reveals powerful coded magnet apps for iPad & Sporting Gear
Apple first introduced us to the Wild World of Coded Magnets in late January. Today, greater revelations are found in a new patent application form Apple published by the US Patent and Trademark Office. While Apple further discusses their technology relating to magnetic fasteners, they specifically reveal real-world applications for the iPad and iPhone. Moreover, Apple envisions their programmable magnets eventually working through to the sporting world via smart bikes, ski boots and snowboards. The energy surrounding Apple's smart magnet project is high and it's evidenced in their latest patent. In fact, the energy found in all of their programmable magnet patents thus far screams the message that they believe this is a breakthrough technology.

1 - Smart Audio Technologies vs. Apple - patent infringement case
Texas based Smart Audio Technologies has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Apple in the Delaware District Court. The patent infringement lawsuit concerns Apple's media players in respect to their ability to "modify a play list of a random access player." Oddly Smart Audio only identifies the iPod nano by name. Yet the most interesting aspect of this case, if there is one, is that Smart Audio's key exhibit is that of patent assigned to Delco Electronics.

Apple's Macroscalar Architecture: Will it Take iOS to the Next Level?

1 - Apple's Macroscalar Architecture - will it take iOs to the next level
The general consensus in the market today is that Apple's upcoming A6 quad core processor is to bring more performance to the 2012 iPad and iPhone. It's said that it will also preserve battery life due to a shift from a 40-nanometer to a 28-nanometer process. Joel Hruska, writing for Extreme Tech, goes one step further with his belief that Apple's upcoming A6 processor could in fact introduce 3D transistors. Yet the one twist that no one even considered as a remote possibility was whether or not Apple's secretive Macroscalar Processor Architecture would be finally come to market. In a surprising and uncharacteristic move by Apple this past week, they may have shown their hand. Our report explains why.  Update February 25, 2012 - Update 2, March 17, 2012

Evidence: Apple Still Working on Thunderbolt Trademark

1 - Evidence - Apple Still Working on Thunderbolt Trademark
In May 2011 we posted a report titled "Apple Didnt' Get the Memo: Files for Thunderbolt Trademark in the US." Information was swirling around the web at that point in time that Apple had transferred their IP for Thunderbolt to Intel. If that were true, then why did more information surface at the US Patent and Trademark Office late on Friday contradicting that position? The new document clearly demonstrates that Apple's lawyers are still vigorously working their trademark application for Thunderbolt through the system.

New Virtual Controls from Apple Point to a Future iMac Touch

1 - New Virtual Controls from Apple Point to a  Future iMac Touch
On February 2, 2012, the US Patent & Trademark Office published a patent application from Apple that describes new virtual controls for a desktop with a touchscreen. This once again illustrates that Apple may be working on an iMac Touch desktop computer. Considering that a company by the name of Perceptive Pixel will be introducing a 27" slanted Touch Display through various vendors later this year, Apple should step up this project from patent concept to reality sooner rather than later. In today's report, we'll show you a very cool video that'll make you lust for one of these new systems, I'm sure.  Note: An important update has added to this report at 1PM MST.
