Abstract: A system for controlling a camera resource in a resource-limited portable device. A method is provided for operating a camera system to allow an application to control a camera resource in a portable device. The method includes activating the camera system, wherein the camera system is operable to control the camera resource, providing an application program interface (API) to receive instructions from the application, receiving an instruction from the application via the API, wherein the instruction identifies a camera function to be performed, and performing the camera function identified by the instruction.

Abstract: A system for dynamic arbitration of a shared resource on a device (300). As the applications (322, 324, 326) execute on the device (300), they submit requests to the sound manager (318) and the camera manager (320) to access the associated device resources. The requests are processed to allocate each of the sound resource (306) and the camera resource (308) to selected applications. In the case where a device resource is currently unallocated, that device resource may be easily allocated to a requesting application. Associating owner information with requester information to form an arbitration request, wherein the owner information comprises information about the owning application and the requester information comprises information about the requesting application.

Abstract: A sensor interface is provided with a number of sensor inputs and a number of client inputs. The client inputs are configured to receive a number of data requests from a number of clients. The number of data requests include at least one data request that specifies a particular type of data to be returned, without identifying a particular physical sensor to be used in acquiring the particular type of data. A processor is configured to i) determine what sensor data can be used to satisfy the number of data requests, ii) configure ones of the sensor inputs to receive sensor data from a number of physical sensors, and iii) if possible, satisfy the number of data requests using the received sensor data. Methods and apparatus pertaining to such a sensor interface are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method is provided and includes generating a first simulated device at a device simulator. The first simulated device corresponding to a first physical device. Also, a second simulated device is generated at the device simulator. The second simulated device corresponds to a second physical device. At least one behavior extension file is loaded at the device simulator. Further, the behavior extension file is applied to the first simulated device or to the second simulated device. The method further includes selectively loading an application to the device simulator. The application can be selectively executed with respect to the first simulated device, the second simulated device, or to the first simulated device and the second simulated device. Also, the application can be modified at least partially in response to the execution of the application at the device simulator to produce a modified application.
