A protective case for a handheld computer including a computer attachment portion and a computer cover portion. The computer attachment portion has a data connector adapted to be electrically coupled with a data port of the handheld computer. The computer cover portion has a keyboard that is electrically coupled to the data connector on the computer attachment portion. The computer cover portion is movably connected to the computer attachment portion for movement between (a) a computer protecting position wherein the cover portion is positioned in an overlying relationship with respect to the front side of the handheld computer, and (b) a computer operating position wherein the cover portion is moved out of the overlying relationship to enable the user to view a display screen of the handheld computer and operate the keyboard to input data into the processor.

An imaging method places an object upon a background pattern of regular repetitive marks and records a 2D image that is then processed for determining where in the image the repetitive marks are interrupted by the object, thereby indirectly determining the edge of the object. Multiple 2D images from different perspectives are used to create a 3D image of the object. When the object is a human food, individual bar codes and imaged foot dimensions can be cross-referenced to manufactured shoe sizes for accurate ordering of correctly sized footwear.

A footwear database system receives precision three dimensional foot image data of imaged feet of human beings, and receives precision footlast 3D image data from footwear manufacturers for storage into databases for automatic determination of footwear sizes. After imaging feet and storing the footlast data, a customer can thereafter remotely select, for example, through catalogs and web sites, a style of footwear and the footwear database system then determines the acceptable and best fitting size for the desired style of the footwear of a respective footwear manufacturer, and in so doing provides an automatic best fitting size selection for reducing footwear returns due to poor and uncomfortable fits.

1) A personal digital assistance (PDA) has a command bar made from a stick-on molded membrane having elevated portions serving as emulated mechanical buttons disposed over a touch sensitive screen that is in part disposed over a display with the mechanical buttons placed juxtaposed respective virtual buttons shown on the display, so that, upon pressing a portion of the membrane generates X-Y voltage levels corresponding to touch screen X-Y coordinates that are in turn associated with virtual button corresponding to computer commands and programs that are launched. The pressing of the emulated mechanical button offers stylus-free operation of the PDA.

A personal digital assistance (PDA) has a graffiti area upon which a stick-on molded membrane having elevated portions serving as an emulated mechanical cursor button and mouse button that are disposed over a touch sensitive screen with a cursor being displayed upon a display, so that, upon pressing the cursor button, the display cursor moves about the display and onto virtual buttons or icons corresponding to computer commands and programs that are launched when the mouse button is pressed. Portions of the membrane over the graffiti area generates X-Y voltage levels corresponding to touch screen X-Y coordinates that are in turn associated with cursor button and mouse button for emulating a mouse function on the PDS The pressing of the emulated mechanical buttons offers stylus-free emulated mouse operation of the PDA.

A combination changing method is used in an access control system which includes one or more keys encoded at a central console with a function information code, a key identification information code, an operation select information code and a two-field key combination information code and one or more locks having at least one memory level in which a lock identification information code and a lock combination information code are stored. A key is initially inserted into a selected lock and the data from the key is transferred to the lock. The lock identification information code is first compared with the key identification information code. If there is no correspondence, power to the lock is turned off for a set period of time. If the identification information codes correspond, a test field of the key combination information code is compared with the lock combination information code. If these correspond, the lock opens.
