Interactive Display System and Method

摘要

The present disclosure describes an interactive display system, method and computer readable medium. In one embodiment, an interactive display surface having one or more computer generated patterns printed thereon may be utilized in conjunction with an electronic pen in order to identify the absolute position of the pen relative to the interactive display surface. In one embodiment, the absolute position of the electronic pen may be transmitted to a computer system and utilized to control one or more programs running on the computer system. In one embodiment, the visual output of the computer system may be superimposed upon the interactive display surface using one or more projectors. The computer generated patterns may have a predefined association with a control operation of the computer system such that placing the electronic pen in proximity to the associated generated pattern causes the computer system to execute the associated control operation.

主权项

1. A computer implemented interactive display method comprising:
identifying an absolute position of an electronic pen relative to an interactive display surface having one or more computer generated patterns imprinted thereon, the electronic pen having an infrared camera for reading the computer generated patterns upon the interactive display surface and a processor for decoding the patterns read by the infrared camera upon the interactive display surface, wherein the decoded patterns indicate the absolute position of the electronic pen with respect to the interactive display surface; and wherein the electronic pen further comprises an inkless stylus.
