20100175018 | VIRTUAL PAGE TURN - One or more pages are displayed on a touch display. A page-turning gesture directed to a displayed page is recognized. Responsive to such recognition, a virtual page turn is displayed on the touch display. The virtual page turn actively follows the page-turning gesture. The virtual page turn curls a lifted portion of the page to progressively reveal a back side of the page while progressively revealing a front side of a subsequent page. A lifted portion of the page is given an increased transparency that allows the back side of the page to be viewed through the front side of the page. A page-flipping gesture quickly flips two or more pages. | 07-08-2010 |
20100182246 | TOUCH SENSITIVE COMPUTING DEVICE AND METHOD - Touch sensitive computing systems and methods are provided. The touch sensitive computing device may include a touch sensitive display configured to receive a touch input. A gesture recognition module may be coupled with the touch sensitive display, and may be configured to receive the touch input. The gesture recognition module may also be configured to determine, based on the touch input, and by selecting from a plurality of different predefined gestures, a recognized gesture that corresponds to the touch input. The touch sensitive computing device may also include a personal information management (PIM) module including a PIM database. The PIM module may be configured to apply a selected item shown on the touch sensitive display to a selected one of a plurality of different PIM schemas of the PIM database. The selected one of the PIM schemas may be selected based on the recognized gesture. | 07-22-2010 |
20100182247 | BI-MODAL MULTISCREEN INTERACTIVITY - A touch-sensitive electronic display device including one or more touch-sensitive display screens and interface software. The touch-sensitive display screen(s) and interface software are configured to be responsive to touch inputs and, in the case of a multi-screen workspace, the interface software is operable to allow inputs made in connection with a first screen to generate an inertial movement of a displayed object which results in the object moving to and coming to rest on another of the screens. The touch-sensitive screen and interface software may also be configured to receive hand touch inputs and pen touch inputs, with the interface software being operable to dynamically mask regions of the touch-sensitive display to discriminate between or selectively permit/reject different types of inputs. | 07-22-2010 |
20100245256 | DUAL SCREEN PORTABLE TOUCH SENSITIVE COMPUTING SYSTEM - A touch sensitive computing system is provided, including a first touch sensitive display and a second touch sensitive display. The displays are operatively coupled with a processing subsystem, and with a memory subsystem which stores a plurality of content pages. User interface instructions are stored in the memory subsystem and are executable by the processing subsystem to provide user interactivity with the content pages through the first touch sensitive display and the second touch sensitive display. The interface instructions are further configured to control the displays so that they operate as discretely organized interface units for the content pages. | 09-30-2010 |
20100251112 | BIMODAL TOUCH SENSITIVE DIGITAL NOTEBOOK - A touch sensitive computing system, including a touch sensitive display and interface software operatively coupled with the touch sensitive display. The interface software is configured to detect a touch input applied to the touch sensitive display and, in response to such detection, display touch operable user interface at a location on the touch sensitive display that is dependent upon where the touch input is applied to the touch sensitive display. | 09-30-2010 |
20110072036 | PAGE-BASED CONTENT STORAGE SYSTEM - A page-based content storage system may be provided by a method of managing content which includes generating, from a plurality of electronic files containing displayable content, a plurality of viewpages, where each viewpage contains one or more portions of the displayable content and each viewpage is displayable in a single-page view. The method further includes assembling the viewpages into a journal to provide a page-based storage structure configured to enable individual, selective management of the viewpages based on properties associated with the one or more portions of the displayable content. The method further includes visually presenting the viewpages as single-page views accessible via a page-based user interface of a computing system. | 03-24-2011 |
20130290895 | VIRTUAL PAGE TURN - One or more pages are displayed on a display. A page-turning gesture is recognized. Responsive to such recognition, a virtual page turn that lifts a portion of the page is displayed on the display. One side of the lifted portion of the page is visible through the other side of the lifted portion of the page. | 10-31-2013 |
20130298069 | VIRTUAL PAGE TURN - One or more pages are displayed on a touch display. A page-flipping gesture directed to a displayed page is recognized. Responsive to such recognition, a virtual page flip is displayed on the touch display. The virtual page flip turns successive pages to a landing page. | 11-07-2013 |
