Multimedia digital foil presentation system

摘要

A navigation means for permitting a presenter to randomly access digitized foils with minimal audience distraction. The navigator includes an on-screen indicator with several fields in a narrow band format that identifies the specific digital foil currently displayed on a presentation medium and also identifies the other digitized foils in the same unit. Using a selector, such as a pointer or keystroke, the presenter can select any other digitized foil within the same unit to replace the current display. To move outside of a specific unit, the presenter simply selects a different unit in the same or a different section within the same module or a different module by selecting other fields displayed on the indicator, again by using a pointer or keystroke. The indicator itself may be hidden from view when not in use, and when in use, may be the same background colour as the displayed foil or even be entirely blocked from the audience's view to minimize audience distraction. $$
