    摘要: A pointing device having a laser in a handheld housing is disclosed. The laser generates a light beam that exits the housing. A beam steering assembly causes the light beam to move relative to the housing. The pointer includes a housing orientation sensor that measures the orientation of the housing. A controller operates the beam steering assembly to compensate for changes in the housing orientation. Embodiments based on housing orientation sensors constructed from a gyroscope and a camera are described. In addition to stabilizing the light beam location, embodiments in which the beam steering assembly also causes the light beam to execute a fixed pattern can also be constructed.

    摘要: An ultrasonic device determines a position of a user-controlled object within a virtual mouse region. The ultrasonic device includes an ultrasonic transmitter, spatially separated ultrasonic receivers and a processor. The ultrasonic transmitter produces an ultrasonic pulse and radiates the ultrasonic pulse into the virtual mouse region. The ultrasonic receivers receive a reflected ultrasonic pulse reflected from the user-controlled object within the virtual mouse region and produce respective reflected ultrasonic signals in response thereto. The processor determines the position of the user-controlled object within the virtual mouse region based on the reflected ultrasonic signals, and generates a position signal indicative of the position.

    摘要: An input device comprises a light source, a light modulator, and a sensor. The light modulator is configured to emit a path of light. The light modulator is arranged relative to the light source transversely across the path of light to produce a light contrast pattern from the light modulator. The sensor module is configured to detect relative motion between the light contrast pattern and the sensor module.

    摘要: An image processing system uses centralized image correction data to process digital images. The image processing system includes a centralized database for storing image correction data for imaging devices. An image processor that receives image data representing an image captured by one of the imaging devices accesses the centralized database with a key associated with the imaging device to retrieve the image correction data for the imaging device. The image processor processes the image data using the retrieved image correction data to correct the image data by reducing various noise components in the image.

    摘要: A switch for controlling a lighting device includes a contact surface, a light source, and an optical navigation sensor. The contact surface includes a generally transparent zone and is configured for removably receiving a fingertip adjacent to the transparent zone. The light source is configured to illuminate the transparent zone of the contact surface. The optical navigation sensor is configured to sense relative motion of the illuminated fingertip at the transparent zone to modify a function of a lighting device external to the light switch based on the relative motion.
