Abstract:
An interactive input system comprises an interactive surface; at least one proximity sensor in proximity with the interactive surface and generating output signifying user proximity to the interactive surface; and processing structure configured to process user input generated in response to user interaction with said interaction input system and output from the at least one proximity sensor, said processing structure controlling interactive input system operation based upon at least one of said user input and proximity sensor output.
Abstract:
An interactive input system comprises a display surface and processing structure communicating with the display surface. The processing structure presents on the display surface at least one graphic object, the graphic object having properties and a respective solution state comprising a value of at least one property. The processing structure in response to gesture input manipulates the value of the at least one property, and provides an indication as to whether the graphic object is in its solution state in response to the application of a predetermined amount of pressure against the display surface in association with the graphic object. A method and computer readable medium are also provided.
Abstract:
An interactive input system includes a touch panel; and processing structure displaying on the touch panel at least one graphic object depicting a book having one or more page stacks. The processing structure displays each page stack of the book graphic object with a respective width that is based on a number of pages in the page stack. A method for manipulating a book object, and computer program embodied by a computer readable medium are also disclosed.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention include systems for determining locations of UWB transmitters. The system (100) includes multiple UWB receivers (104) for receiving a UWB signal (120) emitted by a UWB transmitter (106). Each receiver (104) includes: RF amplifiers (306) arranged in a cascade structure, the RF amplifiers (306) receive and amplify the UWB signal; multiple baseband blocks (308), each of the baseband blocks is coupled to the corresponding RF amplifier (306) and taps an output signal from the corresponding RF amplifier; and a processor (320) coupled to the multiple baseband blocks (308), the processor processes output signals from the multiple baseband blocks (308) to identify the UWB signal (120). The system (100) also includes a server (110) coupled to the multiple receivers (104), the server (110) receives the identified UWB signals from the multiple receivers (104) and determines the location of the UWB transmitter (106) using the identified UWB signals.
Abstract:
Computerized methods and interactive input systems for manipulation of 3D objects are disclosed. An image of 3D object is displayed on a 2D interactive surface, and input is received and is interpreted for manipulating the 3D object. When the 3D object is selected, rotation control handles indicating available rotation directions are displayed. In one embodiment, the method comprises capturing images of a 3D input space, recognizing at least one object in the images, and comparing the recognized objects in the images to determine a difference therebetween based on a difference threshold. Depending on the outcome of the comparison, the recognized objects are emerged and associated with digital content, or only one of the recognized objects is maintained and associated with digital content.
