摘要:
A method of using a capacitance-sensitive touchpad, wherein the touchpad includes a zone on a surface thereof, wherein touchdown of a pointing object within the zone enables activation of a scrolling function, wherein direction of scrolling is then controlled by a gesture by the pointing object, such as moving in a circular motion in a clockwise direction to move down in a list, and in a counter clockwise direction to move up in a list, and wherein fast and slow scrolling speeds are controlled by tapping functions within the scroll zone.
摘要:
A touchpad that shows a representation of at least a portion of a virtual or real object, wherein the touchpad can be used to select a portion of the virtual or real object, such as an appendage or appendages, or the entire virtual or real object, and wherein the touchpad can then be used to give a command regarding an action and/or movement that is to be performed by or on the virtual or real object by using a gesture or combination of gestures on the touchpad surface.
摘要:
A method of using capacitance-sensitive touchpad, wherein the touchpad includes a plurality of zones on a surface thereof, wherein detection of a finger within one of the plurality of zones determines a direction and a speed of scrolling within a window in a graphical user interface, and wherein detection of a finger within one of the plurality of zones determines a direction and a speed of movement of a cursor performing edge motion in the graphical user interface, thus making edge motion and scrolling dependent only upon a detected location of a finger within the plurality of zones, and not dependent upon detecting movement of the finger.
