Embodiment Construction

[0029] now go to figure 1 , shows an interactive input system and is generally identified with reference numeral 20 . The interactive input system 20 includes a main display unit 22 and a separate control unit 24 . In this embodiment, the main display unit 22 is a large flat panel display, such as a plasma display, high definition television (HDTV), liquid crystal display (LCD), or the like. The control unit 24 is a small flat panel display such as an LCD and is mounted on a wall on one side of the main display unit 22 . The control unit 24 and the main display unit 22 communicate via a communication link. The communication link may be a physical link, such as a USB or other suitable wired connection, or may be a radio frequency (RF), infrared (IR) or other suitable wireless link. As will be described, the control unit 24 controls the main display unit 22 in response to both remote user gesture input and proximate user touch input.

Abstract

An interactive input system comprises a consumer electronic device and a controller for the consumer electronic device. The controller is operable in one of a touch input mode and a gesture input mode and controls the consumer electronic device in response to one of the detected user touch input and user gesture input depending on the operating mode of the controller.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an interactive input system, its controller, and to a method of controlling a device. Background technique [0002] Interactive input systems are well known in the art and are becoming increasingly popular. These interactive systems are common in kiosk and electronic tablet applications. Such interactive input systems typically include a touch screen having a touch surface on which contact is made using a pointer in order to generate user input. Contact of the pointer with the touch surface is detected and used to generate a corresponding output depending on the area of ​​the touch surface where the pointer contact was made. Common touch systems utilize analog resistive, electromagnetic, capacitive, acoustic, beam interruption, or machine vision techniques to recognize pointer contacts on the touch surface. [0003] For example, U.S. Patent Nos. 6,803,906; Nos. 6,954,197 and 7,236,162 to Morrison et al., all assigned...
