Technical Examples
- Methods and Systems are provided for interfacing to navigation operations. An application programming interface (API) library is provided having navigation modules, guidance modules, routing modules, and mapping modules. The API is accessible to customized modules operating on a portable electronic device. The customized modules are operable to selectively access and process a number of the modules using the API library while the customized modules are processing on the portable electronic device.
- A plug retention apparatus for use in securing two plug members together to prevent undesired disengagement. The plug retention apparatus is affixed to a first plug member using a retention ring which provides a means for adjustable positioning via a threaded coupling to facilitate securing a second plug member to the first plug member. A plug clamp may be rotatably positioned about the second plug member retaining the plug members in a desired position. The plug retention apparatus may include a sleeve removably disposed about the cord of the first plug. The clamp used for retaining the second plug may include a cord support, a latch to secure the cord on the support and a locking mechanism to selectively retain the latch in a closed position.
- A system and method for displaying plug-in supplied content in a browser-embedded window is provided. A plug-in module supplies content to a host application for display in a browser-embedded window. The plug-in supplied content contains special tags which identify certain processing actions to be taken by the host application on the content prior to display. The special tags in the content relieve the plug-in module from modifying its content upon installation according to the installation location of the host application. The special tags identify references, images, and controls. The control tags enable the plug-in module to receive event messages from controls embedded in the content that are manipulated by a user in the browser-embedded window. The plug-in modules implement a well-defined set of callback routines for receiving the event messages.

- Apparatus 10 for a computer system comprising a plurality of interconnecting modules 16, 18, 20 with each module in the series having computer components encased therein, and external linking and connector elements extending therefrom forming a functioning computer. Each module contains one or more hardware components such as processor 60, DVD 62, video card 54, memory 58, power supply 55, motherboard 46, etc. that provides the user with means for determining and assembling a computer system comprised of user selectable and swappable component modules that plug into each other. The modules are typically of a thin rectangular form and have a structure formed of either a metallic chassis 12 or a plurality of interconnecting panels with knock out portions 40 to allow for connection there through to the computer component's connection ports. The modules connect to one another via a plurality of spring mounted clips 74 on the top that snap into apertures in the bottom of the mating module so that this maintains the module's physical connection to one another having push buttons on the sides of each module for the selective release when so desired. Also, a plurality of jumper elements 84 are used to transmit data or power therethrough and between the modules to where it is needed.
