TOUCH SENSITIVE COMPUTING SURFACE FOR INTERACTING WITH PHYSICAL SURFACE DEVICES

摘要

A method including detecting a plurality of user inputs via a touch sensitive integrated display system; detecting a tangible device input from a tangible device separate from the touch sensitive integrated display system and configured to interact with the touch sensitive integrated display system; interpreting each user input in accordance with a location of the associated input on the touch sensitive integrated display system and a gesture of the associated input; interpreting each tangible device interaction; generating a display of a graphical image based on the interpretations; updating graphical objects of the graphical image displayed on the touch sensitive display based on the interpretation; determining whether to generate an output via the tangible device interacting with the touch sensitive display based on the interpretations; sending the output to the tangible device based on the determination; generating the received output; and displaying the updated graphical objects of the graphical image.

1. A method for operating a touch sensitive integrated display system comprising:
detecting a plurality of user inputs from at least one user via the touch sensitive integrated display system; detecting a tangible device input from a tangible device via the touch sensitive integrated display system, wherein the tangible device is separate from the touch sensitive integrated display system and configured to interact with the touch sensitive integrated display system; interpreting, using at least one processor, each user input in accordance with a location of the associated input on the touch sensitive integrated display system and a gesture of the associated input; interpreting each tangible device interaction in accordance with a location of the associated interaction, a position of the tangible device, and a state of the tangible device; generating a display of a graphical image based on the interpretations; updating graphical objects of the graphical image displayed on the touch sensitive display based on the interpretation; determining whether to generate an output via the tangible device interacting with the touch sensitive display based on the interpretations; sending the output to the tangible device based on the determination; generating the received output via the tangible device; and displaying the updated graphical objects of the graphical image on the touch sensitive integrated display system.
