摘要： An apparatus, method, and computer program product are described that determine a position of a touch component of a user input received outside a touch sensitive area of a touch surface by correlating a position of the force component and a position of a touch component of a portion of the user input received within the touch sensitive area with a position of the force component of a portion of the user input received outside the touch sensitive area. In this way, the position of a touch component of the user input received outside the touch sensitive area, where the touch surface is not capable via hardware to detect the position of the touch component, may be determined, and operations may be executed based on the position of the touch component that is determined.

摘要： An apparatus, method, and computer program product are described that can detect the presence of a tangible object without using computer vision. The apparatus receives a signal from a device proximate the apparatus, where the signal includes at least one of a proximity component and an orientation component, and also receives a touch input from the associated display. The apparatus then determines whether there is an association between the signal and the touch input based on the proximity component and/or the orientation component. If the signal and the touch input are associated, it is an indication that the device is disposed on the display, operations may be executed, such as to facilitate interaction between the apparatus and the device. As a result, any object capable of providing a signal having a proximity component or an orientation component can be detected (e.g., without the use of cameras or fiducial markers).

摘要： An apparatus, method, and computer program product are described below that can provide and/or detect dynamic fiducial markers presented on a display of an apparatus. An apparatus providing the fiducial marker may initially provide for the presentation of the fiducial marker on a display, where the fiducial marker represents one or more properties of the apparatus, such as connectivity information for the apparatus. The apparatus may modify the presentation of the fiducial marker based on a change in one or more properties of the apparatus. An apparatus configured to detect dynamic fiducial markers provided on other device displays may also be configured to provide for the presentation of its own fiducial markers, and vice versa. Thus, in some cases, apparatuses may function as both a tangible user interface display and a tangible object (e.g., in a bi-directional communication scenario).

摘要： Mobile devices provide a variety of techniques for presenting messages from sources to a user. However, when the message pertains to the presence of the user at a location, the available communications techniques may exhibit deficiencies, e.g., reliance on the memory of the source and/or user of the existence and content of a message between its initiation and the user's visit to the location, or reliance on the communication accessibility of the user, the device, and/or the source during the user's location visit. Presented herein are techniques for enabling a mobile device, at a first time, to receive a request to present an audio message during the presence of the user at a location; and, at a second time, detecting the presence of the user at the location, and presenting the audio message to the user, optionally without awaiting a request from the user to present the message.

摘要： An electronic poker game assembly preferably provides a head-to-head poker game for two players. The assembly has a housing that is preferably a table and contains at least a portion of a computer system that generates and shuffles a virtual poker card deck, deals the cards and performs other tasks typically associated with a dealer. The housing supports an electronic player interaction area (EPIA) for each player and a common display area. Dealt virtual hole cards are displayed on screens of each EPIA and virtual common cards are preferably displayed on a screen of the common display area. Mechanical actuators for each EPIA are operated by the players when playing poker, sending electric signals to the computer system for play of the game.

摘要： An electronic card game is provided to a plurality of players using an electronic card table. The electronic card table has a table top with a playing surface, a plurality of electronic player interaction areas located around a periphery of the table top and a central display area located in a central location of the table top. Each electronic player interaction area provides a player interface for interaction with one of the players. A game computer is coupled to the plurality of electronic player interaction areas and the central display area for administering the electronic card game using virtual cards and chips. A host console is coupled to the game computer for configuring the electronic player interaction areas and the central display area and for establishing parameters of the electronic card game.
