Abstract
An attachment for a smart device having a touch screen displaying at least one interactive area thereon includes at least one port defining an air passageway therethrough and at least one actuator element disposed at least partially within the air passageway of each of the at least one ports. Each of the at least one actuator elements is configured to actuate upon a flow of air passing through the corresponding air passageway. Actuation of each of the at least one actuator elements causes an electrical interaction with one of the interactive areas of the touch screen.
Claims15
An attachment for a smart device having a touch screen displaying an interactive area thereon, the attachment comprising:
- a port defining an air passageway therethrough;
- and
- an actuator element disposed at least partially within the air passageway of the port, the actuator element configured to actuate upon a flow of air passing through the air passageway, wherein actuation of the actuator element causes the actuator element to make direct contact with the interactive area of the touch screen to form an electrical interaction therewith.
An attachment for a smart device having a touch screen displaying a first interactive area and a second interactive area thereon, the attachment comprising:
- a port defining an air passageway therethrough;
- and
- a first actuator element disposed at least partially within the air passageway of the port, the first actuator element configured to actuate upon a flow of air passing through the air passageway in a first direction, wherein actuation of the first actuator element causes the first actuator element to make direct contact with the first interactive area of the touch screen to form an electrical interaction therewith;
- and
- a second actuator element disposed at least partially within the air passageway of the port, the second actuator element configured to actuate upon a flow of air passing through the air passageway in a second direction opposite the first direction, wherein actuation of the second actuator element causes the second actuator element to make direct contact with the second interactive area of the touch screen to form an electrical interaction therewith.
An attachment for a smart device having a touch screen displaying a first interactive area and a second interactive area thereon, the attachment comprising:
- a port defining an air passageway therethrough;
- and
- a first actuator element disposed at least partially within the air passageway of the port, the first actuator element configured to actuate upon a flow of air passing through the air passageway in a first direction, wherein actuation of the first actuator element causes the first actuator element to make direct contact with the first interactive area of the touch screen to form an electrical interaction therewith;
- and
- a feature button configured to cause an electrical interaction with the second interactive area of the touch screen.
