METHOD, TERMINAL AND SYSTEM FOR COMMUNICATING BY NONVERBAL MESSAGES

摘要

The present invention relates in a general manner to a method, a terminal (101, 102) each furnished with a touch screen (12), and a system for communicating by nonverbal messages, in particular during an instantaneous messaging session between a first and at least one second terminal (101, 102). The method comprises the steps consisting in: - obtaining (E202, E208), as screen interaction data (Strokes- data), touch events (InputEvent, InputTouchEvent) generated by a control system for the touch screen (12) of the first terminal (101) in response to at least one contact action of a user on the touch screen of the first terminal (101); - transmitting (E214) said screen interaction data of touch events type to said at least one second terminal (102) through a communication network (30); - on each of said first and second terminals (101, 102), converting (E400) said screen interaction data of touch events type into graphical image data (z) corresponding to said at least one contact action and combining (E402) said graphical image data (z) with data of a graphical image already displayed (zactual) on the touch screen of the terminal so as to update (E216, E306, E404) the display of the graphical image on the terminal.
