Video presentation device and method

摘要

A computing device may include a video input interface and video output interface to allow insertion into a video system. The device may be configured to perform passthrough operation on the incoming video, allowing the incoming signal to appear at the output interface. When overlay video operations are desired, the device may resize the incoming video, generate one or more additional overlays, and generate a modified version of the incoming video signal, where the modified version contains the one or more additional overlays along with (if desired) the original video. The device may have data network connections, and can thereby serve as an easy way, for example, to upgrade an existing video system with network and/or interactive features.

1. A method comprising:
sending, by a computing device and to a display device, a signal comprising at least a first and a second graphical panel associated with at least a first and second application, respectively; defining a three-dimensional space in front of a user and the display device, wherein the three-dimensional space is divided into a plurality of sub-spaces comprising at least a first subspace and a second subspace, wherein the first subspace is closer to the display device than the second subspace; associating the first and second applications to the first subspace and the second subspace, respectively; detecting a gesture made by the user in the first subspace, wherein the gesture is associated with a pre-defined command; and sending the pre-defined command associated with the gesture to the first application corresponding to the first subspace in which the gesture was detected.
