A method of displaying navigational instructions when a navigation application is running in a background mode of an electronic device is provided. The method displays a non-navigation application in the foreground on a display screen of the electronic device. The method displays a navigation bar without a navigation instruction when the device is not near a navigation point. The method displays the navigation bar with a navigation instruction when the device is near a navigation point. In some embodiments, the method receives a command to switch from running the navigation application in the foreground to running another screen view in the foreground. The method then runs the other screen view in the foreground while displaying a navigation status display on an electronic display of the device.

A method for producing and electronically distributing a digital magazine for onscreen viewing using a standard browser converts or renders an original document, which can be in a print format or in a digital format, to a format suitable for full-screen viewing on a display screen. The conversion or rendering includes reformatting the original document from the portrait format to the landscape format, if necessary. The digital magazine is displayed in a full-screen manner, which hides the toolbar(s) of the standard browser. To navigate the digital magazine, a navigation bar is embedded into each page of the digital magazine. The digital magazine is delivered to subscribers as an attachment to an e-mail message or as a URL link within an e-mail, which, when clicked on, downloads the digital magazine to the subscribers' computers.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for screening articles utilizing a computerized touch sensitive screen or other computerized pointing device for operator identification and electronic marking of objects within the article to be further examined. An operator positioned at a computerized touch sensitive screen views electronic images of the articles to be screened as they are conveyed past a sensor array which transmits sequences of images of the series either directly or through a computer to the touch sensitive display screen. The operator manually “touches” objects within the articles displayed on the screen to be identified on coupled interactive screens thereby registering the objects selected within the computer. The computer then provides sequential information identifying actions to be taken and information and data to be recorded.

Embodiments include a headset computer, including a processor, configured to display text in a screen view. The computer further configured to place a first point within the displayed text according to one or more of first head tracking information, first voice commands and first gestures, and place a second point within the displayed text according to second head tracking information, second voice commands and second gestures. The computer further configured to select a text section between the first point and the second point in response to one or more of third head tracking information, third voice commands and third gestures, and display the selected text section as a highlighted text section.

The present invention converts a wide-angle lens image into a two dimensional view with reduced distortion and warping. The present invention uses a graphics engine which accepts a shape, an image, and a viewing position. An effective lens shape, corresponding to the recording lens, an image as well as a image-related viewing position is supplied to the graphics engine. The graphic engine projects the image on the effective shape and displays a portion of the image from the viewing position. The recording lens is often a wide-angle lens. The graphics rendering engine maps the wide-angle lens image onto an effective lens shape and displays sections of the mapped image on the shape in a full screen view. Portions of or the entire image are viewable at any one time. Use of acceleration hardware permits frame per second rates of display of up to 60 and greater frames per second. Typical wide-angle recording lenses include “fisheye” lenses and torus shaped (doughnut) lenses.
