Peripheral retention device
First Claim
1. A peripheral retention device comprising:
- a computing device securing portion configured to removably engage a computing device such that the computing device securing portion is securable to and removable from a cavity on a first side of a housing of the computing device using one or more hands of a user; and
a peripheral securing portion connected to the computing device securing portion and configured to removably engage a peripheral device via a second side of the housing that opposes the first side of the housing such that the peripheral device is securable to and removable from the peripheral securing portion using one or more hands of a user, the computing device securing portion configured to be secured to the cavity on the first side of the housing by pulling the peripheral securing portion from the first side of the housing through the cavity to the second side of the housing that opposes the first side of the housing.

Abstract
Peripheral retention device techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a peripheral retention device includes a computing device securing portion and a peripheral securing portion. The computing device securing portion is configured to removably engage a computing device such that the computing device securing portion is securable to and removable from a first side of a housing the computing device using one or more hands of a user. The peripheral securing portion is connected to the computing device securing portion and configured to removably engage a peripheral device via a second side of the housing that opposes the first side of the housing such that the peripheral device is securable to and removable from the peripheral securing portion using one or more hands of a user.

12. A computing device comprising:
-
a display device; a housing having a form factor configured to be held by one or more hands of a user, the housing including a kickstand that is movable to support different viewing positions of the display device as secured to the housing, the kickstand configured to removably engage a peripheral retention device such that the peripheral retention device is securable to and removable from the kickstand using one or more hands of a user, the peripheral device is securable to and removable from the peripheral retention device using the one or more hands of a user, the peripheral retention device configured to be secured to a cavity on a first side of the kickstand by pulling a peripheral securing portion of the peripheral retention device from a first side of the kickstand through the cavity to a second side of the kickstand that opposes the first side of the kickstand; and one or more modules implemented at least partially in hardware and configured to perform one or more operations responsive to inputs received from the peripheral device. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)
