A system is provided in which a mobile display device, such as a cellular phone, a computing tablet, a mobile computer or any other portable device that incorporates a computing element and a display element, is adapted to display a predetermined pattern. The pattern can be either visible or invisible to human eye. An image sensor (most likely, but not necessarily, an optical one) detects said pattern, and the location of the MDD is determined in relation to the sensor. In one embodiment, the MDD displays a pattern on the device's standard display, for example four points of unique character, such as color or blinking pattern. Such a method will allow a cost-effective way to implement the system, as it requires no additional cost in hardware. In another embodiment, the system recognizes the display unit of the MDD (instead of a specific pattern on the MDD's display) and can determine location of the MDD without any change to the MDD's hardware or software. In yet another embodiment, the system includes bi-directional wireless communication between the receiver and the MDD and software that allows the MDD to exchange information with the system, such as the exact dimensions of the display.

System for locating mobile display devices

A system is provided, in which a mobile computing system in a wristwatch form factor incorporates a computing element, a display element, and a belt or strap-like band. A method is proposed, making use of the strap element as a base for expanding the functionality of the system by providing both a mechanical and a data interface between the base system and the expansion module(s).

System for modular expansion of mobile computer systems

A transcription module having a mounting unit, acoustical receivers and an EM detector is disclosed. The mounting unit is adapted for positioning the transcription module over a work surface. First and second acoustical receivers are attached to the mounting unit. Each acoustical receiver includes a microphone positioned over a corresponding location on the work surface. Each microphone views the work surface at the corresponding location and is configured to receive acoustical signals from an input device operating over the work surface at another location. The EM detector detects an EM signal that is synchronized with the acoustical signals.

Pen transcription system with improved noise rejection

An apparatus for operation with or in a projector or a flat panel display, the apparatus including a part board having an associated surface or a frame for a surface, such as a whiteboard, that is pre-assembled to include components that when connected to an external module convert the surface to an electronic transcription apparatus. In one version, the components include a set of sensors and electronics therefor, with wiring and a connector.
