A fixing mechanism includes a receptacle for receiving a component. A pair of spaced rails is formed in the receptacle and defining a slideway therebetween. A latch member is movable along the slideway. A resilient member is installed adjacent the slideway and engagable with the latch member to urge the latch member forward for fixing the component and to assist in urging the latch member backward when the latch member is operated to unfix the component.

A cover mounting assembly includes a button (20), a cover (40), a locking member (60) and a base plate (70). The cover includes a pair of hooks (49). The locking member includes a lockpin (65). The locking member is attached with the button on the opposite surfaces of the cover to slide forward or rearward together. The base plate includes an opening (71) and a pair of slots (77). The cover is received in the opening of the base plate and the hooks are received in the slots of the base plate respectively. The lockpin of the locking member abuts against the internal surface of the base plate to fasten the cover to the base plate.

The present invention provides a system for developing sense of rhythm. The system includes an interactive surface embedded with an RF antenna, a host, a memory unit, and a media player, an array of contact points on the interactive surface, a display device configured to export the comparison of the tempo and the beat input by a player with the preset tempo and the preset beat, and multiple physical sheets. The function of each contact point is determined or changed by the host in accordance with preset programs. Each physical sheet is embedded with an RFID tag and marked with a musical instrument and corresponding functional components, and the location of the functional components corresponds to the contact points in accordance with the preset programs. Once a physical sheet is placed on the interactive surface, the host is configured to assign a timbre of a musical instrument and the corresponding playing rules to the array of contact points in accordance with the preset programs and the RFID tag embedded in the physical sheet. The visible feedback would help players make corrections more efficiently.

The present invention discloses a system and accompanying method for directing the movement of an object on an interactive surface through a defined path. The system includes an object embedded with a unique identification code (UID), a movement module, and a distinct pattern of capacitive tabs near the surface of the object that makes contact with the interactive surface, an interactive surface configured to recognize the UID, location and orientation information of an object placed on the interactive surface, and a processor operatively linked to the interactive surface and configured to direct, track and correct the movement of the object along a defined path on the interactive surface by tracking the UID, location and orientation of the object continuously and throughout the movement. A centralized control mode is applied in the present invention, which makes the structure of the electronic hardware within the moving object substantially simplified, which leads to a decreased manufacturing cost, and, from an aesthetic point of view, the logic clearer and easily understood.

The present invention provides a system and accompanying method for deriving spatial sequence of multiple objects on an interactive surface. The system includes an interactive surface and multiple physical objects. Each object is placed within a finite three-dimensional space on the interactive surface, and embedded with an RFID tag. The interactive surface further includes an RF module, an antenna, a host, an adjustable matching network, a channel switch, and an output module. The host instructs the channel switch to change the parameters of the components of the adjustable matching network to generate a series of resonance frequencies. And the host instructs the antenna to read the RFID tags at the series of resonance frequencies, with an effective reading range of the antenna changing as the resonance frequency changes. The host receives information of multiple sets of RFID tags in multiple readings, derives a spatial sequence of the objects placed on the interactive surface, and provides the output signal or action through the output module. The invention could be applied to the Tower of Hanoi game.

The present invention discloses a system and method for changing the state of a user interface (UI) element of a computer program visually marked on a physical object, through a touch action upon the object, among a plurality of objects on the interactive surface, each comprising a capacitance tab and a unique identification code. During runtime execution of the computer program, and in response to a touch action upon an object by an end-user, the interactive surface is configured to detect such touch action upon the object through an embedded capacitance sensor positioned under the object, and direct a sensory accessory to indicate a new state of the UI element marked on an object by exhibiting a new sensory pattern. The present invention offers enhanced interactivity between an end-user and a computer program mediated by physical objects.

The present invention discloses a system and method to enable a capacitance sensor to further recognize a capacitive action on an object after the capacitance sensor has recognized the presence of the object. The system includes an object, an interactive surface embedded with a capacitance sensor, and a processor that is configured to continuously receive capacitance values from the capacitance sensor. After an object is placed on an interactive surface and within the detection range of the capacitance sensor, the processor is configured to deduce that a first significant change in capacitance value has occurred, and that an object has been placed on the interactive surface, based on one or more heuristics. And further, once an end-user touches the object, the processor is configured to deduce that a second significant change in capacitance value has occurred, and that the object has been touched by a finger, based on one or more heuristics. The present invention may be valuable for a variety of education, entertainment and productive applications by providing enhanced human machine interactivity through the manipulation of physical objects.
