摘要:
A control indication assembly. A first control mounted on a surface of a computer is coupled to a first sensor, to a first sensing circuit to send an electrical signal to the first control when a user-touch occurs to the first sensor, and to a first indicator to indicate an occurrence of said user-touch. A second control mounted on a surface of a display which is coupled to the computer is coupled to a second sensor, to a second sensing circuit to send an electrical signal to said second control when said user-touch occurs to the display, and to a second indicator to indicate an occurrence of the user-touch. The first and second control are configured such that the first and second indicator are synchronized to exhibit identical behaviors when the user-touch occurs to either the first control or the second control.

A system and method for dynamically correcting display characteristics to compensate for non-uniformities is disclosed. In the preferred embodiment, the display screen is divided into logical tiles, and then the initial correction parameters of the characteristics under consideration, namely convergence, brightness, hue, and beamlanding, are measured at the vertices of each tile. The dynamic correction circuitry automatically synchronizes the correction waveforms, which are functions of the locations on the physical display screen, with the control signals of the displayed image. Due to the synchronization, the previously stored initial correction parameters of the characteristics under consideration may be used to dynamically correct for uniformity of these characteristics. The preferred embodiment performs linear vertical and horizontal interpolation on the correction values between the vertices of the tiles.

A calibration circuit and method for a proximity/touch detector allow automatic calibration to the proximity/touch detector components, chassis affects, and ambient conditions such that initial factory calibration and periodic manual calibration are not needed. The calibration circuit switches a capacitance into the input capacitance of a Schmitt trigger free running oscillator to change the output frequency of the oscillator. A capacitive sensor forms part of the input capacitance. The change in frequency simulates the frequency shift associated with the difference in input capacitance generated when an object, such as a finger, is touching the capacitive sensor and when the capacitive sensor is free from contact with the object.

A system for correcting an output device for the effects of reflected ambient illumination comprises a reflection device of known reflectivity. The color display memory stores a first graphical interface and a second graphical interface. The first graphical interface displays a range of intensities of outputs that the display device can generate. The second graphical interface displays a range of hues that the display device can generate. The reflection device has a target surface which defines an aperture. The ambient light reflecting from the target surface is compared to the first graphical interface and to the second graphical interface by viewing the interfaces through the aperture. The system receives a first input of an intensity of the first graphical interface that appears to match the ambient illumination reflected from the reflection device; the system then receives a second input of a hue of the second graphical interface that appears to match the ambient illumination reflected from the reflection device. The system determines the intensity and hue of the ambient illumination reflected from the output device by matching the intensity and hue of the ambient illumination reflected from the reflection device with the output of the output device. The system then adjusts the outputs of the output device to compensate for the reflected ambient illumination.
