摘要： Technologies for interfacing an input overlay device with a touch screen of a computing device are disclosed. A computing device includes a touch screen and at least one processor to execute instructions to: determine parameters associated with an input overlay device overlying the touch screen, the input overlay device separate from the computing device, the parameters to identify a first area of the touch screen and a second area of the touch screen different than the first area, the first area corresponding to an area of the touch screen covered by the input overlay device; detect a position of a touch on the touch screen; if the position of the touch is in the first area, determine an input for the computing device based on the position of the touch; and if the position of the touch is in the second area, ignore the touch.

摘要： An interface device includes an on-panel pad and a sensor controller. The interface device is used to perform an input to an electronic device in response to an operation by a user on a capacitive touch panel display of the electronic device. The on-panel pad causes sensor electrodes included in the touch panel display to generate a two-dimensional pattern of capacitance while the on-panel pad is on the touch panel display. When the two-dimensional pattern generated while the on-panel pad is on the touch panel display has been detected, the sensor controller generates or outputs data including operation information in response to a change in capacitance in a region that is associated with the two-dimensional pattern and that receives an operation of the on-panel pad, the operation information indicating an operation state of the on-panel pad.

摘要： A mobile security basic control device (15) of a robot (1), has a hand-held housing (16), an emergency stop switching means (17) arranged at the housing (16), a communication device (18) for establishing a link in terms of control between the mobile security basic control device (15) and a robot controller (12) of the robot (1). A holder (19) is connected to the housing (16), which is designed to mount the mobile security basic control device (15) on a mobile terminal (20). The mobile terminal has a terminal control system (21) and a multi-touchscreen (22), which is designed to transmit inputs to the terminal control system (21) via the multi-touchscreen (22). The mobile security basic control device (15) comprises a coding device (25) which, in a state where the mobile security basic control device (15) is mounted on the mobile terminal (20) by means of the holder (19), is designed to automatically transmit at least one identification code identifying the mobile security basic control device (15) to the terminal control system (21) via the multi-touchscreen (22).

摘要： A touch conductive facemask for touch screen devices includes a nonconductive facemask body comprising breathable material and having an inner surface facing a user when the facemask is worn and an outer surface facing away from the user. The facemask also includes a plurality of elastic straps coupled to the facemask body and configured to be placed around a head of the user. In addition, electrically conductive material such as conductive stitching or a conductive coating proximate a center portion of the facemask body passes from the inner surface to the outer surface of the facemask and is configured for bioelectricity from skin of the user that comes in contact with electrically conductive material on the inner surface to pass through to the outer surface to be sensed by a touch screen device.

摘要： A computer mouse including a base with bottom surface for sliding across a work surface, with a retrievable tip for providing a resistance point for precision movements. At retrieved position, the tip is not touching the work surface, proving regular mouse movement. At working position, the tip is touching the work surface and creating resistance for precise movement of the mouse over the work surface.
In some embodiments, computer mouse operated with tip in braked position allows the user to make rotational movements/gestures that can be registered by computer program to invoke actions, this new type of gesture is especially important for people with disabilities that have difficulties with existing gesture like clicking button.
In some embodiments, computer mouse operated with tip in braked position allows users with hand tremor to improve cursor positioning by stopping cursor in vicinity of target, then reaching target by rotational movement.
