Augmented I/O for limited form factor user-interfaces

摘要

The claimed subject matter relates to an architecture that can enhance and/or simplify tactile-based I/O transactions in connection with a user-interface (UI) of limited form factor. In particular, the architecture can monitor a position of a selector object such as an operator's finger relative to a UI display as the selector object hovers or moves above the UI display. Based upon this position, an analogous coordinate in the UI display can be determined, and a portion of the UI display substantially centered at the coordinate can be modified. As one example, the UI display can be modified to increase the magnification scale (e.g., a virtual magnifying glass) of the portion of the display indicated by the selector object.

主权项

1. A system, comprising:
a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
determining that a defined change to a state of an interface display has occurred that relates to a determination of a number of graphical elements, displayed by the interface display, exceeding a threshold number; andin response to the defined change being determined to have occurred, augmenting an output of the interface display comprising updating a portion of the output of the interface display as a function of a position of a selector object interacting with the interface display with respect to a surface associated with the interface display.
