| 20080209346 | POINTING-CONTROL SYSTEM FOR MULTIPOINT CONFERENCES - A pointing-control system for multipoint conferences includes a plurality of computers, a gateway, a display, a conference-control module and a pointing-control module. The computers are connected through a wired or wireless network with the gateway. The computer with the highest priority number is defined as the host computer having the right to assign any of the computers to be the report computer. The conference-control module can demonstrate presentation frames of the report computer on the display through the gateway. The pointing-control module is used to capture pointing coordinates of pointing apparatuses of the respective computers, and further to display the pointing coordinates on the presentation frames of the display. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20090006983 | Creating A Session Log For A Computing Device Being Studied For Usability By A Plurality Of Usability Experts - Methods, systems, and products are disclosed for creating a session log for a computing device being studied for usability by a plurality of usability experts that include: displaying, by a usability engine to a plurality of usability experts, a usability observation video of a user interacting with a computing device during a usability session for studying the usability of the device; detecting, by an event listener on the computing device, an event generated as a result of user interaction with the device; notifying, by the event listener, the usability engine of the event; recording, by the usability engine, a description of the event in a session log; receiving, by the usability engine from at least one of the usability experts, usability observations regarding the usability of the device; and recording, by the usability engine, the usability observations in the session log. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20090044133 | Updating Content Display Based on Cursor Position - A computer-implemented method can include displaying a display region, on a display device associated with a computer system, corresponding to a container at a remote location operatively coupled to the computer system over a network, wherein the container includes at least two content items, dividing the display region into at least two portions, wherein each portion corresponds to one of the at least two items, and upon detecting a positioning of a cursor in a first portion of the at least two portions, transmitting a request to the remote location for a first content item, of the at least two content items, receiving the first content item, and displaying the first content item in the display region. | 02-12-2009 |
| 20110029896 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING MULTIPLE COMPUTERS - A system for controlling multiple computers comprising a first host computer coupled to a first keyboard, a first cursor control device and a first display screen with a first display boundary; a second host computer coupled to a second keyboard, a second cursor control device and a second display screen with a second display boundary; and a switching unit having a switch coupled between the first host computer and the second host computer; wherein a pointer controlled by the first cursor control device is located within the first display screen with the first display boundary associated the first host computer; wherein the switching unit detects the first pointer controlled by the first cursor control device moving out of the first display boundary of the first display screen after the switch is activated, the second host computer associated with the second display screen is controlled by the first keyboard and the first cursor control device through the switching unit and the first host computer. | 02-03-2011 |
| 20120278738 | Interactive and Collaborative Computing Device - Systems and methods are provided for an interactive and collaborative computing device. One example device enables users to establish a communicative link with the interactive and collaborative computing device such that each user may view and share information whether in a local or remote interactive and collaborative environment. The systems and methods described herein further provide a way for users to annotate content displayed on the interactive and collaborative computing device by providing annotative input via another computing device. | 11-01-2012 |
| 20130318451 | COMPUTING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SHARING MOUSE OF COMPUTING DEVICE - In a method for sharing a mouse, the cursor of the mouse is concealed when the cursor of the mouse is moved to the left side of the user interface of the computing device. Control coordinates of the cursor of the mouse of the computing device are transmitted to a connected electronic device. The control coordinates of the cursor of the mouse are transformed into a functioning cursor display on a touch screen of the electronic device according to the display position. | 11-28-2013 |
| 20160077706 | SHARED INTER-OPERATIONAL CONTROL AMONG MULTIPLE COMPUTING DEVICES - A collaborative computing device group operative under a shared multiple discrete desktop user interface is established from a first desktop of a first computing device and a different discrete desktop of a second computing device physically located in user visual proximity to the first computing device. A color-coded graphical representation of a user-interface control port that allows authorized cursor navigation to and from the second computing device is displayed on the first desktop oriented in a respective direction of the second computing device. A cursor of the second computing device is authorized to migrate, under control of a user of the second computing device, from the different discrete desktop through the color-coded graphical representation of the user-interface control port of the second computing device to the first desktop and the first computing device is controlled in accordance with visual navigation and control of the cursor of the second computing device. | 03-17-2016 |
