- remote configuration of information panel 300 may offer several advantages over in-vehicle configuration. For example, there may be increased functionality for users to organize their personalized settings on a remote computing device.
- a user may organize multiple information panel configurations and program each configuration for different driving conditions. A first information panel configuration might be activated for a certain user during night time driving conditions, while a second information panel configuration might be activated during the day.
- a certain user may want to create seven different information panel configurations and activate each on different days of the week. Different information panel configurations may be activated based on other factors as well, including location, outside temperature, number of people in the vehicle, time of day, month of the year, whether the vehicle is parked or moving, etc.
- Another advantage of remote configuration of information panel 300 may be ease of use. Many users may find touch screens tedious and prefer the drag and drop interfaces available on computing devices. For example, using a personal computer, a user may select a display item 320 a for a navigation system and perform a drag and drop operation to place it in partitioned display area 310 d . The user may then continue to move display item 320 a to different partitioned display areas 310 until he/she is satisfied with the placement. By way of another example, using a personal computer, a user may select a display item 320 d for a speedometer, highlight the display item, and then select the desired partitioned display area 310 b , which may cause the speedometer to immediately appear in that partitioned display area.
- users may also create information panel configurations using a smart phone.
- a user while inside a vehicle with information panel 300 , may decide he/she wants to adjust the climate control.
- the user may access display item palette 315 to select display item 320 c to modify the current information panel configuration to include a controller for climate control.
- An application on a smart phone may allow a user to modify the current information panel configuration in real time and may allow a user to download different display items and display item palettes via the internet.
- different display item palettes may contain different types of display items 320 .
- a first display item palette may contain only display items relating to controllers and a second display item palette may contain only display items relating to gauges.
- some display item palettes may relate to entertainment display items, e.g., radio, news, sports scores, media player, etc.
- new display items and display item palettes may be downloaded from the internet to a computing device, or directly to information panel 300 .
- display item palette 315 may contain multiple display items 320 for the same kind of controller or gauge.
- display items 320 d , 320 g , and 320 h are different representations of a speedometer. In some embodiments, if a user is not satisfied with these options of speedometers, he/she may, using a computing device or a touch screen incorporated into information panel 300 , select an option for showing or downloading more display items of that type.
- FIG. 4 illustrates a selection of N vehicle information panel templates, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.
- the user may select an information panel template from among one or more templates that are compatible with the vehicle's information panel.
- information panel templates 400 , 410 , and 420 comprise partitioned display areas 405 , 415 , and 425 , respectively.
- the information panel template that is selected may affect the display items that are available.
- template 410 contains partitioned display areas 415 e - g that are wide and short and would be compatible with a different range of display items than partitioned display area 425 d of template 420 .
- a user may select a new template after a previous template has already been activated in a vehicle with one or more display items.
- the display items may automatically populate the new template according to an algorithm that determines the closest distance between partitioned display areas of the new and previous templates.
- FIG. 6 illustrates a vehicle information panel 600 with partitioning between the driver side and the passenger side, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.

Abstract
Description
- The present application is a continuation of U.S. Nonprovisional application Ser. No. 14/979,491, filed Dec. 27, 2015, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes
- The present disclosure generally relates to configuring display devices in vehicles, and more specifically to personalized configuration of display devices in vehicles using user biometric information.
- Vehicles, such as automobiles, have a wide range of controllers and gauges that may be visualized and adjusted inside a vehicle cabin. Vehicle controllers give the vehicle driver and/or passenger the ability to adjust one of several adjustable components. Examples of such adjustable components include mirrors (side and rear), seats, steering wheels, air temperature, air magnitude, radio, headlights, brakes, engine (e.g., economy or sports mode), among others. An automobile with adjustable components can typically facilitate a person entering the automobile (e.g., a driver) to manually select and set his/her preferred settings for the adjustable components. For example, a female driver entering the automobile can be facilitated to adjust various levers to position the seat properly for her body type. She can also be facilitated to set the steering wheel to an angle for ease of use, adjust the rear and side-view mirrors for her height, select a favorite station on the radio, and/or select any of the additional personal settings.
- Vehicle gauges, on the other hand, give the vehicle driver and/or passenger the ability to examine certain metrics regarding vehicle operation and performance. Examples of such gauges include speedometers, tachometers, oil pressure gauges, temperature gauges, voltmeters, odometers, ammeters, fuel pressure gauges, brake pressure gauges, check engine indicators, among others. Vehicle gauges may be displayed either using an analog or electronic display. Types of electronic displays include CRT, LED, OLED, LCD, and plasma technologies, among others. Electronic displays in vehicles can display still images or video.

The processor may be further configured to effectuate configuring the first information panel configuration on a display device. The processor may be further configured to identify the second user when the second user is inside the driving apparatus. Following identification of the second user, the second information panel configuration may be retrieved. The processor may be further configured to effectuate configuring the second information panel configuration on a display device.
- In some embodiments, the first and second information panel configurations include an arrangement of display items for display on a display device. In some embodiments, the first and second users are identified by receiving biometric information regarding the first and second users. The biometric information that is received may be captured by a fingerprint scanner or a camera. In some embodiments, the first and second users are identified by receiving information from an input device that is configured to allow the first and second users to identify themselves. In some embodiments, the input device is a touch screen that is incorporated into the display device. In some embodiments, the plurality of information panel configurations are stored in a remote storage over a network.
- The first information panel configuration may include a first arrangement of display items and the second information panel configuration may include a second arrangement of display items. The first and second arrangements of display items may be previously selected by the first and second users on a computing device. In some embodiments, the first and second arrangements of display items differ by at least one display item. In some embodiments, the first and second arrangements of display items were previously selected by actions from the first and second users that include choosing an information panel template from among one or more selectable information panel templates where the information panel template includes one or more partitioned display areas, selecting one or more display items, and choosing a partitioned display area for each of the one or more display items.
- Systems and methods of the present disclosure may also include a computer-method for configuring a driving apparatus, and a non-transitory processor-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform several operations.
- The accompanying drawings, which are included to provide a further understanding of the invention, are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the invention and together with the detailed description serve to explain the principles of the invention.

- Various example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to the drawings constituting a part of the description. It should be understood that, although terms representing directions are used in the present disclosure, such as “front”, “rear”, “upper”, “lower”, “left”, “right”, and the like, for describing various exemplary structural parts and elements of the present disclosure, these terms are used herein only for the purpose of convenience of explanation and are determined based on the exemplary orientations shown in the drawings. Since the embodiments disclosed by the present disclosure can be arranged according to different directions, these terms representing directions are merely used for illustration and should not be regarded as limiting. Wherever possible, the same or similar reference marks used in the present disclosure refer to the same components.
- Traditional vehicle electronic displays, often referred to as digital instrument panels or electronic instrument clusters, typically have a built-in layout that is configured by the manufacturer. Any customizations permitted by these electronic displays are minimal, and generally apply to all users of the vehicle without the ability to store and later retrieve through a user profile. Therefore, it is desirable to provide new systems and methods for configuring display devices in vehicles.
- In accordance with the disclosure, personalized settings of an information panel in a driving apparatus may be facilitated. Biometrics, such as a fingerprint, retina pattern, voice pattern and/or any other biometric information of a certain user of the driving apparatus may be captured to identify the user. The user may be associated with several information panel configurations such that the user may configure and store an information panel configuration, and then later retrieve or update the same information panel configuration.
FIG. 1 illustrates one example of adriving apparatus 100 that allows a user to provide his/her biometric information to store, retrieve, and/or update their personalized settings for an information panel. - As shown, driving
apparatus 100 in accordance with the disclosure may include aprocessor 103 configured to execute machine-readable instructions. The machine-readable instructions, when executed, can causeprocessor 103 to perform one or more operations to implement storing, recalling and/or updating the personalized settings of an information panel in thedriving apparatus 100. As shown,processor 103 may be operatively connected to one or moreuser identifying devices 104, such as a biometricinformation capturing device 105 which is shown inFIG. 1 as a camera. The biometricinformation capturing device 105 can be configured to acquire biometric information from a user of the drivingapparatus 100. In some embodiments, the biometricinformation capturing device 105 may be configured to identify the user based on the biometric information provided by the user. However, this is not necessarily the only case. In some embodiments, the biometricinformation capturing device 105 may not identify the user. In those embodiments, the biometricinformation capturing device 105 may be configured to simply transmit the captured user biometric information toprocessor 103 for further processing. - In some embodiments, the
user identifying device 104 need not include a biometric information capturing device. Users may identify themselves by entering information into the information panel or some other input device. For example, users may identify themselves using a keypad located on the inside of the vehicle. In some embodiments, a keypad located on the outside of the vehicle may simultaneously provide entry to the user and identify which user is entering the vehicle. Similarly, users may identify themselves using a key to the vehicle that is unique for different users. In some embodiments, users may say their name to a microphone inside drivingapparatus 100 to identify themselves. - As shown, driving
apparatus 100 may compriseinformation panel 102. In some embodiments,information panel 102 may be an electronic display that spans the dashboard of drivingapparatus 100. Types of electronic display technologies that may embodyinformation panel 102 include CRT, LED, OLED, LCD, and plasma technologies, among others. In some embodiments, drivingapparatus 100 may comprisemultiple information panels 102 positioned at different locations withinvehicle cabin 101. For example,information panels 102 may be positioned on the backs of seats, on the center console, on the steering wheel, on the ceiling ofcabin 101, on the front windshield, on the side windshields, or at any other location within drivingapparatus 100. - As shown, driving
apparatus 100 can comprisecustomizable components 106. Somecustomizable components 106 in thedriving apparatus 100 may have one or more settings that can define corresponding modes of operations for thosecustomizable components 106. Examples of thosecustomizable components 106 may include driving mode of an engine of driving apparatus 100 (e.g., sports or economy mode), automatic headlight mode (e.g., daytime running mode, tunnel light mode), light intensity on dashboard display(s), airbag mode, cruise control, camera mode and/or another components that can be customized to operate in a particular mode for a given user of the drivingapparatus 100. - Some
customizable components 106 in thedriving apparatus 100 may have one or more settings that can define a position and/or an operational angle of those components. Examples of suchcustomizable components 106 may include one or more seats (front and/or rear), one or more seat belts, one or more mirrors, a steering wheel, one or more windows and accessories thereto, and/or any other customizable components whose position(s) or angle(s) can be adjusted. - Some
customizable components 106 in thedriving apparatus 100 may have one or more settings that can define a starting point of the customizable components. Examples of such components may include mirrors, seats, radio (e.g., start station, start volume, etc.), headlights, brakes, engine (e.g., economy or sports mode), a navigation system (e.g., language, voice guide volume, voice guide accent), climate control (e.g., start temperature, wind strength, wind direction, humidity, and so on), and/or any othercustomizable components 106 that has a configurable initial state of operation. Other examples ofcustomizable components 106 are contemplated. - As still shown, driving
apparatus 100 can facilitate multiple users 108 to personalize their settings ofinformation panel 102. The users may include one or more drivers of the drivingapparatus 100 and/or one or more passengers of the drivingapparatus 100. As mentioned above, separate biometricinformation capturing devices 105 can be provided to different types of users of drivingapparatus 100. For example, without limitation, the biometricinformation capturing device 105 can be provided to the driver(s) of the drivingapparatus 100 for storing, recalling, and/or updating the personalized settings ofcustomizable components 106 associated with the driver(s); and the biometricinformation capturing device 105 can be provided to the passenger(s) of the drivingapparatus 100 for storing, recalling, and/or updating personalized settings of thecustomizable components 106 associated with the passenger(s). - It should be understood that driving
apparatus 100 in accordance with this disclosure is not necessarily limited to an automobile. Other types of drivingapparatus 100 are contemplated. For example, the drivingapparatus 100 can be a train, a bus, a vessel, a motorcycle, an electronic bike, a rocket ship, an airplane, and/or any other types of apparatus that can move in distance. -
FIG. 2 illustrates aninformation panel 200, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.Information panel 200 as shown inFIG. 2 is positioned on the dashboard of a vehicle abovesteering wheel 205. In other embodiments,information panel 200 may be positioned at other locations within a vehicle. - In some embodiments,
information panel 200 comprises partitioned display areas 210. Each partitioned display area 210 may be configured to display a single vehicle controller or gauge. In some embodiments, multiple vehicle controllers and gauges may be displayed on a single partitioned display area 210. For example, in some embodiments partitioneddisplay areas display area 210 c. -
FIG. 3 illustrates aninformation panel 300 positioned on the dashboard of a vehicle abovesteering wheel 305, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, a user is able to select one ormore display items 320 from adisplay item palette 315 and place eachdisplay item 320 in one of the partitioned display areas 310. There are various methods through which a user of a vehicle may interact withinformation panel 300. For example, in some embodiments a user may create his/her personalized settings for the information panel on a personal computer or a smart phone while being remote from the vehicle. In some embodiments, a user may create personalized settings using a touch screen that is incorporated into the information panel. For example, a user may touch an area oninformation panel 300 that is designated “create personalized settings”, which causesinformation panel 300 to display partitioned display areas 310 in a manner similar to that shown inFIG. 3 . The user may then touch each partitioned display area 310 which subsequently causesdisplay item palette 315 to appear, allowing the user to select adisplay item 320 to place into the designated partitioned display area. - In some embodiments, remote configuration of
information panel 300 may offer several advantages over in-vehicle configuration. For example, there may be increased functionality for users to organize their personalized settings on a remote computing device. In some embodiments, a user may organize multiple information panel configurations and program each configuration for different driving conditions. A first information panel configuration might be activated for a certain user during night time driving conditions, while a second information panel configuration might be activated during the day. By way of another example, a certain user may want to create seven different information panel configurations and activate each on different days of the week. Different information panel configurations may be activated based on other factors as well, including location, outside temperature, number of people in the vehicle, time of day, month of the year, whether the vehicle is parked or moving, etc. - Another advantage of remote configuration of
information panel 300 may be ease of use. Many users may find touch screens tedious and prefer the drag and drop interfaces available on computing devices. For example, using a personal computer, a user may select adisplay item 320 a for a navigation system and perform a drag and drop operation to place it in partitioneddisplay area 310 d. The user may then continue to movedisplay item 320 a to different partitioned display areas 310 until he/she is satisfied with the placement. By way of another example, using a personal computer, a user may select adisplay item 320 d for a speedometer, highlight the display item, and then select the desired partitioneddisplay area 310 b, which may cause the speedometer to immediately appear in that partitioned display area. As another example, users may also create information panel configurations using a smart phone. A user, while inside a vehicle withinformation panel 300, may decide he/she wants to adjust the climate control. The user may accessdisplay item palette 315 to selectdisplay item 320 c to modify the current information panel configuration to include a controller for climate control. An application on a smart phone may allow a user to modify the current information panel configuration in real time and may allow a user to download different display items and display item palettes via the internet. - In some embodiments, different display item palettes may contain different types of
display items 320. For example, a first display item palette may contain only display items relating to controllers and a second display item palette may contain only display items relating to gauges. Furthermore, some display item palettes may relate to entertainment display items, e.g., radio, news, sports scores, media player, etc. As discussed above, new display items and display item palettes may be downloaded from the internet to a computing device, or directly toinformation panel 300. In some embodiments,display item palette 315 may containmultiple display items 320 for the same kind of controller or gauge. For example,display items information panel 300, select an option for showing or downloading more display items of that type. -
FIG. 4 illustrates a selection of N vehicle information panel templates, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, prior to or after a user selects display items, the user may select an information panel template from among one or more templates that are compatible with the vehicle's information panel. As shown inFIG. 4 ,information panel templates template 410 contains partitioned display areas 415 e-g that are wide and short and would be compatible with a different range of display items than partitioneddisplay area 425 d oftemplate 420. In some embodiments, a user may select a new template after a previous template has already been activated in a vehicle with one or more display items. The display items may automatically populate the new template according to an algorithm that determines the closest distance between partitioned display areas of the new and previous templates. -
FIG. 5 illustrates avehicle information panel 500 positioned on the dashboard of a vehicle abovesteering wheel 505 with a single partitioneddisplay area 510, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.Partitioned display area 510 allows a user to place display items 520 from display item palette 515 over a wide range of locations oninformation panel 500. The drawback of partitioneddisplay area 510 is that the increase in flexibility for the user come is accompanied by increased complexity. Display items 520 that are placed on partitioneddisplay area 510 may be more difficult to align horizontally or vertically with each other than would be the case with other information panel templates, and display items positioned nearsteering wheel 505 may difficult to place where their view is not obstructed. -
FIG. 6 illustrates avehicle information panel 600 with partitioning between the driver side and the passenger side, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, it may be advantageous to partitioninformation panel 600 into a driverside information panel 615 and a passengerside information panel 620 in order to facilitate access toinformation panel 600 by users of the vehicle other than the driver. In this example, a driver may configure display items 610 and a passenger may configure display items 625. - As an example of an embodiment of
FIG. 6 , a first user of a vehicle may have four different information panel configurations that may be activated when he/she is identified as being in the vehicle. A first configuration may be activated when it is determined that the first user is in the driver's seat of the vehicle and there is no passenger in the vehicle. The first configuration may contain display items for each of partitioned display areas 610 and 625. A second configuration may be activated when it is determined that the first user is in the driver's seat of the vehicle and there is a passenger in the vehicle. The second configuration may contain display items for each of partitioned display areas 610 but not 625. A third configuration may be activated when it is determined that the first user is sitting on the passenger side of the vehicle and there is also someone in the driver's seat. The third information panel configuration may contain display items for each of partitioned display areas 625 but not 610. Finally, a fourth configuration may be activated when it is determined that the first user is sitting on the passenger side of the vehicle and there is no driver in the vehicle (for example, when the driver goes into a store and the passenger remains in the vehicle). The fourth information panel configuration may contain display items for each of partitioned display areas 610 and 625. For example, the fourth configuration may enable a passenger who was previously watching a movie only on the passengerside information panel 620 to expand the movie to theentire information panel 600 when the driver is not in the vehicle. -
FIG. 7 illustrates a set of partitioned vehicle information panel templates, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. When creating or modifying an information panel configuration, a user may select different options from among driver side information panel templates 700 and passenger side information panel templates 705 much in the same manner as was described in reference toFIG. 4 . As a safety feature, certain display items may only be available for certain information panel templates. For example, in some embodiments display items that relate to media players or entertainment may only be placed onto passenger side information panel templates 705 while such display items are prohibited on driver side information panel templates 700. In other embodiments, display items that relate to media players or entertainment may be allowed on driver side information panel templates 700 but only under certain conditions, such as when the vehicle is parked or where the entertainment display item is not of the kind that overly distract drivers, such as a news ribbon that displays the score of a sporting event every ten minutes, or the audio of a media item. -
FIG. 8 illustrates a block diagram of amethod 800 for facilitating a user to configure an information panel in a driving apparatus, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.Method 800 will be described in reference toFIGS. 1-7 . The operations ofmethod 800 presented below are intended to be illustrative. In some embodiments,method 800 may be accomplished with one or more additional operations not described and/or without one or more of the operations discussed. Additionally, the order in which the operations ofmethod 800 are illustrated inFIG. 8 and described below is not intended to be limiting. - At
block 805, a user of a driving apparatus creates a new information panel configuration or modifies an existing one. The user may interact with the information panel to create or modify an information panel configuration through various methods, including but not limited to, a touch screen incorporated into the information panel, a personal computer, a smart phone, and other remote or in-vehicle computing devices. A user may select an information panel template, as described in reference toFIG. 4 , and then select display items to place in each of the partitioned display areas of the selected template, as described in reference toFIG. 3 . - At
block 810, the information panel configuration is stored either locally within the driving apparatus or on a remote server. In some embodiments, information panel configurations associated with different users are transmitted to a remote server by initiating requests to transmit byprocessor 103 followed by actual transmission of the information panel configurations, as described in reference toFIG. 1 . A single user may have multiple information panel configurations with which he/she is associated with, as described in reference toFIG. 6 . Atblock 815, the user of the driving apparatus is identified. User identification is performed by a user identifying device, as described in reference toFIG. 1 . However, the user identifying device need not be a biometric information capturing device. A user may identify himself by entering his information into the information panel or some other input device (e.g., keypad), or the user may provide his biometric information to a input device for further processing by the processor. - At
block 820, the information panel configuration that was created or modified by the user is retrieved. In some embodiments, information panel configurations associated with different users stored on a remote server may be retrieved by initiating requests to the server byprocessor 103, as described in reference toFIG. 1 . Information panel configurations stored locally may be retrieved by searching a memory component that is operatively coupled withprocessor 103. At block 825, the information panel configuration is effectuated on a display device within the driving apparatus. The display device may be an electronic display that spans the dashboard of the driving apparatus. The display device may also be positioned on the backs of seats, on the center console, on the steering wheel, on the ceiling, or at any other location within the driving apparatus, as described in reference toFIG. 1 . -

These instructions might take the form of executable code, which is executable by thecomputer system 900 and/or might take the form of source and/or installable code, which, upon compilation and/or installation on thecomputer system 900 e.g., using any of a variety of generally available compilers, installation programs, compression/decompression utilities, etc., then takes the form of executable code. - It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that substantial variations may be made in accordance with specific requirements. For example, customized hardware might also be used, and/or particular elements might be implemented in hardware, software including portable software, such as applets, etc., or both. Further, connection to other computing devices such as network input/output devices may be employed.
- As mentioned above, in one aspect, some embodiments may employ a computer system such as the
computer system 900 to perform methods in accordance with various embodiments of the technology. According to a set of embodiments, some or all of the procedures of such methods are performed by thecomputer system 900 in response toprocessor 910 executing one or more sequences of one or more instructions, which might be incorporated into theoperating system 940 and/or other code, such as anapplication program 945, contained in the workingmemory 935. Such instructions may be read into the workingmemory 935 from another computer-readable medium, such as one or more of the storage device(s) 925. Merely by way of example, execution of the sequences of instructions contained in the workingmemory 935 might cause the processor(s) 910 to perform one or more procedures of the methods described herein. Additionally or alternatively, portions of the methods described herein may be executed through specialized hardware. - The terms “machine-readable medium” and “computer-readable medium,” as used herein, refer to any medium that participates in providing data that causes a machine to operate in a specific fashion. In an embodiment implemented using the
computer system 900, various computer-readable media might be involved in providing instructions/code to processor(s) 910 for execution and/or might be used to store and/or carry such instructions/code. In many implementations, a computer-readable medium is a physical and/or tangible storage medium. - Such a medium may take the form of a non-volatile media or volatile media. Non-volatile media include, for example, optical and/or magnetic disks, such as the storage device(s) 925. Volatile media include, without limitation, dynamic memory, such as the working
memory 935. - Common forms of physical and/or tangible computer-readable media include, for example, a floppy disk, a flexible disk, hard disk, magnetic tape, or any other magnetic medium, a CD-ROM, any other optical medium, punchcards, papertape, any other physical medium with patterns of holes, a RAM, a PROM, EPROM, a FLASH-EPROM, any other memory chip or cartridge, or any other medium from which a computer can read instructions and/or code.
- Various forms of computer-readable media may be involved in carrying one or more sequences of one or more instructions to the processor(s) 910 for execution. Merely by way of example, the instructions may initially be carried on a magnetic disk and/or optical disc of a remote computer. A remote computer might load the instructions into its dynamic memory and send the instructions as signals over a transmission medium to be received and/or executed by the
computer system 900. - The
communications subsystem 930 and/or components thereof generally will receive signals, and thebus 905 then might carry the signals and/or the data, instructions, etc. carried by the signals to the workingmemory 935, from which the processor(s) 910 retrieves and executes the instructions. The instructions received by the workingmemory 935 may optionally be stored on anon-transitory storage device 925 either before or after execution by the processor(s) 910. - The methods, systems, and devices discussed above are examples. Various configurations may omit, substitute, or add various procedures or components as appropriate. For instance, in alternative configurations, the methods may be performed in an order different from that described, and/or various stages may be added, omitted, and/or combined. Also, features described with respect to certain configurations may be combined in various other configurations. Different aspects and elements of the configurations may be combined in a similar manner. Also, technology evolves and, thus, many of the elements are examples and do not limit the scope of the disclosure or claims.
- Specific details are given in the description to provide a thorough understanding of exemplary configurations including implementations. However, configurations may be practiced without these specific details. For example, well-known circuits, processes, algorithms, structures, and techniques have been shown without unnecessary detail in order to avoid obscuring the configurations. This description provides example configurations only, and does not limit the scope, applicability, or configurations of the claims. Rather, the preceding description of the configurations will provide those skilled in the art with an enabling description for implementing described techniques. Various changes may be made in the function and arrangement of elements without departing from the spirit or scope of the disclosure.
- Also, configurations may be described as a process which is depicted as a flow diagram or block diagram. Although each may describe the operations as a sequential process, many of the operations can be performed in parallel or concurrently. In addition, the order of the operations may be rearranged. A process may have additional steps not included in the figure. Furthermore, examples of the methods may be implemented by hardware, software, firmware, middleware, microcode, hardware description languages, or any combination thereof. When implemented in software, firmware, middleware, or microcode, the program code or code segments to perform the necessary tasks may be stored in a non-transitory computer-readable medium such as a storage medium. Processors may perform the described tasks.
- Having described several example configurations, various modifications, alternative constructions, and equivalents may be used without departing from the spirit of the disclosure. For example, the above elements may be components of a larger system, wherein other rules may take precedence over or otherwise modify the application of the technology. Also, a number of steps may be undertaken before, during, or after the above elements are considered. Accordingly, the above description does not bind the scope of the claims.
- As used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “an”, and “the” include plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a user” includes a plurality of such users, and reference to “the processor” includes reference to one or more processors and equivalents thereof known to those skilled in the art, and so forth.
- Also, the words “comprise”, “comprising”, “contains”, “containing”, “include”, “including”, and “includes”, when used in this specification and in the following claims, are intended to specify the presence of stated features, integers, components, or steps, but they do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, components, steps, acts, or groups.
