A method and non-transitory computer readable medium for formatting handwritten virtual ink. The method includes receiving handwritten input on an interactive display, the handwritten input including a plurality of strokes; associating a cell of a virtual canvas displayed on the interactive display with the handwritten input; making a determination that the handwritten input does not fit entirely within the cell; making a determination that at least a portion of the handwritten input is within a tolerance area associated with the cell; and applying a cell formatting decision to the portion of the handwritten input within the tolerance area.

Evaluating and formatting handwritten input in a cell of a virtual canvas

In general, embodiments of the invention relate to a method for propagating content. The method includes detecting, from a user, an input on a device, interpreting the input to identify a command, and displaying, in response the command, updated content on the device. The method further includes making a determination, based on the command, that content displayed on at least one other device is to be updated. The method further includes, in response to the first determination, generating a command message based at least in part on the command, and transmitting the command message to a workspace management system (WMS), where the at least one other device is operatively connected to the WMS.

Method to exchange visual elements and populate individual associated displays with interactive content

Mounting apparatus

An apparatus having an interactive display configured to display a first navigation user interface (UI) element in a first predetermined area of the interactive display, the first navigation UI element being an indicator for navigating forward one or more pages of the e-presentation, and memory configured to store an e-presentation including a plurality of pages, is disclosed. The apparatus displays a current page of the e-presentation, detects a first input from a user, makes a first determination that the first input initiated in the first predetermined area, in response to the first determination, display a second UI element on the interactive display, wherein the second UI element indicates a page immediately after the current page of the e-presentation, and make a second determination as to whether the first input exceeds a predetermined navigation threshold. When the first input exceeds the predetermined navigation threshold, the second UI element is updated.

Edge navigation mechanism that mimics the use of a flipchart

In general, embodiments of the invention relate to generating thumbnails representing files stored in database or other repository. More specifically, embodiments of the invention are directed to creating snapshots of file content and using the snapshots to generate a thumbnail representation for each file. In addition, embodiments of the invention are directed to resizing thumbnails having thumbnail content from file snapshots, annotating on the thumbnails using an interactive device, and later synchronizing the annotations with the file content.

Resizable, open editable thumbnails in a computing device

A system and method for storing data input on an interactive device directly to a removable media device. The method includes detecting connection of a removable media device by an interactive device, authenticating the removable media device using an identification device operatively connected to the removable media device, upon authentication of the removable media device and when a session exists on the interactive device, determining whether a user of the removable media device is a same user of the session, when the user of the removable media device is the same user of the session, automatically copying stroke data on the interactive device to the removable media device, and upon authentication of the removable media device and when a session does not exist on the interactive device, creating a new session associated with the user of the removable media device, and performing an insertion default action.

Method for recording stroke data made on a touch sensitive interactive device

A system and method for formatting data input on an interactive device. The method includes detecting a stroke input, converting the stroke input into stroke data, making a first determination that the stroke data should be grouped with an existing object group using a proximity threshold, based on the first determination, associating the stroke data with the existing object group, and resetting a timer associated with the existing object group.

System and method for formatting and manipulating digital ink

In general, embodiments of the invention relate to an apparatus for housing and (re)charging one or two mobile computing device(s). More specifically, in one or more embodiments of the invention, the apparatus includes an inductive (re)charging element, which generates direct current (DC) when proximal to external power sources extending electromagnetic (EM) fields. The generated DC may then be disseminated, through a physical connection, towards (re)charging the one or two mobile computing device(s) and/or a backup battery. Subsequently, the battery provides DC, that had been stored, to (re)charge the one or two mobile computing device(s) whenever the apparatus is not proximal to an EM field inducing external power source.

In general, embodiments of the invention relate to a method for transmitting messages. The method includes determining that a first device and a second device are members of a communication group based on the first device and the second device concurrently accessing a file, receiving a message from the first device, making a first determination, in response to receiving the message, that the first device is a member of the communication group, and based on the first determination, making a second determination that the second device is a member of the communication group, and based on the second determination, transmitting a second message to the second device, wherein the second message is generated, based at least in part, on the message.

Method and system for dynamic group creation in a collaboration framework

In general, the invention relates to a method for updating content on devices. The method includes detecting a local modification on a device, wherein the local modification is associated with a portion of a locally stored copy of a virtual canvas, wherein the portion of the locally stored copy of the virtual canvas is displayed on the device at a device-scale level, converting the local modification to a second local modification by scaling the local modification from the device-scale level to a system-scale level, updating, using the second local modification, the locally stored copy of the virtual canvas, generating a first update message comprising the second local modification, and transmitting the first update message to a workspace management system.
