Abstract
A device may comprise a display and a processor. The processor may obtain a first set of one or more touches on a remote surface of a remote device based on a signal received on a communication link between the device and the remote device. receive information associated with the first set of one or more touches through the signal. detect a gesture on the display, and determine whether the information is to be used to obtain content based on the gesture.
Claims21
A method comprising:
- detecting a first set of one or more touches of a graphical object;
- and
- transmitting information that is associated with the graphical object to a device that includes a touch screen;
- receiving the information with the device;
- accepting a second set of one or more touches on the touch screen;
- and
- using the second set of one or more touches to determine whether the information is valid.

A device comprising:
- a touch screen;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- detect one or more touches on a remote radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag,
