Abstract:
An information display method comprises retrieving, from at least one database, the information concerning a user and at least one other user, calculating a relationship value for the at least one other user, the relationship value being at least partly based on the retrieved information and using the relationship value as a factor during the display of information relating to the user and the at least one other user.
Abstract:
A tool tray for an interactive input system comprises a housing having an upper surface defining at least one receptacle sized to receive a tool for interacting with an interactive surface, a sensor configured to detect the presence of the tool within the receptacle and at least one display in communication with the sensor. The display is configured to present a pointer attribute selection screen upon removal of the tool from the receptacle.
Abstract:
A method comprises receiving input; and when said input is associated with a command to transpose a graphical user interface (GUI) element comprising a plurality of sub-elements that is positioned on a display surface, transposing at least one of said sub-elements.
Abstract:
A method comprises receiving an input event associated with a first user ID, the input event being a command for selecting at least one graphic object; determining if a selection is currently associated with the first user ID; and if no selection is currently associated with the first user ID creating a first selection; associating the first selection with the first user ID; and including the selected at least one graphic object in the first selection.
Abstract:
A computerized assessment grading method comprises creating a syntax tree for a received equation-based response to at least one assessment question and a syntax tree for at least one solution to the at least one question, comparing the syntax trees, and grading the response based on the results of the comparison.
Abstract:
An interactive input system includes an interactive surface, at least one proximity sensor positioned in proximity with the interactive surface; and processing structure communicating with the at least one proximity sensor and processing proximity sensor output to detect at least one user in proximity with the interactive surface.
Abstract:
An interactive input system comprises at least one imaging assembly having a field of view looking into a region of interest and capturing image frames and processing structure in communication with the at least one imaging assembly. When a pointer exists in captured image frames, the processing structure demodulates the captured image frames to determine frequency components thereof and examines the frequency components to determine at least one attribute of the pointer.
Abstract:
An interactive input system includes at least one imaging device having a field of view looking into a region of interest and capturing images; at least one pen tool comprising an accelerometer configured to measure acceleration of the pen tool and to generate acceleration data, the pen tool configured to wirelessly transmit the acceleration data; and processing structure configured to process the images and acceleration data to determine the location of at least one pointer in the region of interest.
Abstract:
An interactive input system (20) includes at least one illumination source (84a, 84b, 84c) emitting radiation into a region of interest; at least one imaging assembly capturing image frames of the region of interest, the at least one illumination source being in the field of view of the at least one imaging assembly; and a controller (72) communicating with the at least one illumination source, the controller controlling the intensity of radiation emitted by the at least one illumination source during image frame capture.
Abstract:
A method for resolving pointer ambiguity in an interactive input system comprises calculating a plurality of potential pointer locations for a plurality of pointers in proximity of an input surface of the interactive input system, displaying visual indicators associated with each potential pointer location on the input surface, and determining real pointer locations based on feedback derived from the display of the visual indicators.
