One embodiment of the present invention comprises a method for inputting information into an electronic device comprising the acts of orienting a sensing pad relative to an electronic device operator, sensing the relative location of a foot motion indicator controlled by the operator and translating the relative location of the foot motion indicator into electronic information. The method may further comprise displaying the electronic information on a screen. The act of sensing may be capacitive sensing, resistive sensing or optical sensing.
System For Selecting A Device Over A Network For A Computer To Use
A computer automatically selects a device, such as a printer, over a network for the computer to use without a user having to provide the network address of the device. The computer identifies a group of devices connected to a network that meet certain pre-determined criteria. The computer then selects the device from this group that has the lowest uptime. This device is assumed to be the device the user wishes to configure their computer to use. After the device is selected, the computer then can operate to configure itself to use the device.
A method is to be used with a device that is capable of carrying a cable and has a cover with a port. The method includes: (1) arranging the cable in the tray; (2) determining that the port is to be used to connect the cable; and (3) connecting the cable to the port.
One embodiment of the present invention comprises a foot operated device, which may be used by an operator, for inputting information into an electronic device. The foot operated device comprises a sensing pad support assembly, a sensing pad housing operably connected to the sensing pad support assembly and a sensing pad secured within the sensing pad housing for sensing a foot motion indicator, wherein the orientation of the sensing pad relative to the operator may be adjusted. The device may further comprise at least one actuator partially secured within the sensing pad housing for inputting information into the electronic device. The sensing pad may be a touch sensitive pad or a proximity sensitive pad. The sensing pad may be a capacitance-based sensing pad, a resistance-based sensing pad or an optical-based sensing pad.
The invention, in one embodiment is a cable management device. The device includes an elongated tray having a first surface and a second surface. The first surface further comprises a notched section continuous with the first surface; and a first end on the notched section distal from the first surface. The second surface further is continuous with the first surface and angularly disposed relative thereto and has a second end. The device also includes a cover attachable to the first end and to the second end.
