Systems and methods for providing application management and navigation in a web-based environment are described. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: determine that a user has dragged-and-dropped a tab onto a launch bar of a web browser, parse a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) associated with the tab into a resource and a data source, and add a web app icon corresponding to the resource to the launch bar.

Embodiments of systems and methods for providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for controlling virtual workspaces produced across Information Handling Systems (IHSs) are described. An IHS may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: establish a virtual workspace across a screen of the IHS and a second screen of a second IHS, at least in part, through a backend IHS; and provide a virtual workspace interface on the screen, where the virtual workspace interface comprises a first graphical representation of the IHS and a second graphical representation of the second IHS, and where in response to a user dragging a first instance of an application window displayed on the screen to the second graphical representation of the second IHS, a second instance of the application window is rendered on the second screen.

A device charger with accessory bays is described. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include: a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the IHS to: receive an indication, from a device charger coupled to the IHS, that an accessory has been ejected from the device charger; and in response to the indication, connect to the accessory.

An expansion device couples to a capacitive mat disposed on a desktop surface and communicates power and data through the capacitive mat to perform functions in support of an information handling system. For example, the expansion device powers an inductive charger to charge a peripheral device, accepts end user touch inputs with a capacitive touch sensor, presents visual information at an integrated display in response to pixel values provided by the information handling system though the capacitive mat.

Embodiments of systems and methods for providing touch input switching in a multi-form factor Information Handling System (IHS) are described. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, an IHS may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the IHS to: process a first input received via a secondary display in direct mode, at least in part, by producing or modifying an image on the secondary display; and in response to an event, process a second input received via the secondary display in pointer mode, at least in part, by producing or modifying an image on a primary display at a display location that corresponds to a contact location of the second input.

Embodiments of systems and methods for a dynamic virtual workspace with contextual control of input/output (I/O) devices are described. A first Information Handling System (IHS) may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the first IHS to: transmit a virtual workspace initiation request to a backend IHS, wherein the request comprises an identification of a second IHS collocated with respect to the first IHS; receive, from the backend IHS, data associated with the second IHS; determine a position of the second IHS; and initiate the virtual workspace across a first screen of the first IHS and a second screen of the second IHS based upon the data and the position.

Systems and methods for detecting a keyboard's position with respect to a display of a multi-form factor Information Handling System (IHS) are described. In some embodiments, an IHS may include: a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the IHS to: identify, using an infrared (IR) transceiver, a position of a keyboard disposed on a surface of a display; and render a graphical feature on the display based upon the position.

Visual images projected on a projection surface by a projector provide an interactive user interface having end user inputs detected by a detection device, such as a depth camera. The detection device monitors projected images initiated in response to user inputs to determine calibration deviations, such as by comparing the distance between where a user makes an input and where the input is projected. Calibration is performed to align the projected outputs and detected inputs. The calibration may include a coordinate system anchored by its origin to a physical reference point of the projection surface, such as a display mat or desktop edge.

Embodiments of systems and methods for providing proximity and context-based telepresence in electronic collaboration environments are described. For example, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the IHS to: identify a position of a participant of a collaboration session; identify a context of the participant; prioritize collaboration session content captured by the IHS based upon the position and the context of the participant; and transmit the prioritized collaboration session content to a remote IHS.

A totem object placed on a touchscreen display provides inputs based upon touches made at the touchscreen display, such as with the rotational orientation or linear location of the totem object relative to a user interface presented outside the totem object. A visual access from the touchscreen display through the totem object passes a visual image from the touchscreen display for presentation at the totem object upper surface, such a numerical value of an input made by totem object position on the touchscreen display.

In one or more embodiments, one or more systems, methods, and/or processes may determine that a peripheral is proximate to a display associated with an information handling system; may determine an area of the display that is obscured by the peripheral; may reduce power to the area of the display that is obscured by the peripheral; may determine one or more areas of the display associated with one or more respective transparent materials associated with the peripheral; may increase illumination to the one or more areas of the display; may receive, from the peripheral, touch information associated with a user touching at least one of the one or more transparent materials; may change at least a portion of information displayed by the display; may receive, from the peripheral, user input information associated with user input to the peripheral; and may change at least another portion of the information displayed.
