Apple breveteaza sistemul slide to unlock

    Desi au trecut mai bine de 4 ani de la lansarea primului model al iPhone, companiei Apple i-a fost inregistrat astazi brevetul de inventie pentru sistemul slide to unlock folosit pentru a debloca orice iDevice. Acum mai bine de 4 ani de zile Steve Jobs aparea in fata catorva mii de invitati prezentand noul terminal iPhone si impreuna cu el sistemul de deblocare care avea sa devina un trademark al iPhone-ului. Oficiul pentru brevete de inventie si marci din SUA a publicat astazi documentul prin care recunoaste inregistrarea brevetului pentru compania Apple iar mai jos aveti un extras al documentatiei trimise de catre compania din Cupertino.

A device with a touch-sensitive display may be unlocked via gestures performed on the touch-sensitive display. The device is unlocked if contact with the display corresponds to a predefined gesture for unlocking the device. The device displays one or more unlock images with respect to which the predefined gesture is to be performed in order to unlock the device. The performance of the predefined gesture with respect to the unlock image may include moving the unlock image to a predefined location and/or moving the unlock image along a predefined path. The device may also display visual cues of the predefined gesture on the touch screen to remind a user of the gesture. In addition, there is a need for sensory feedback to the user regarding progress towards satisfaction of a user input condition that is required for the transition to occur.

    Scott Forstall, Imran Chaudhri, Bas Ording, Freddy Allen Anzures, Marcel Van Os, Stephen O. Lemay si Greg Christie sunt inventatorii pentru care a fost brevetata tehnologia, toti facand desigur parte din compania Apple. Cu ajutorul acestui brevet de inventie Apple poate da in judecata orice alt producator de gadget-uri care foloseste acelasi sistem sau unul asemanator in propriile produse. Probabil in viitor el va fi utilizat impotriva unor companii dar deocamdata Android-ul poate sta linistit.
