Abstract
A method comprises a processor detecting a person's finger moving across an unrendered portion of a touch-sensitive display. As a result of detecting the finger moving, the method further comprises the processor causing data to be rendered as a virtual keyboard image on the display.
Claims15
A method, comprising:
- a processor detecting a person's finger moving across an unrendered portion of a touch-sensitive display;
- and
- as a result of detecting the finger moving, the processor causing data to be rendered as a virtual input device image on a display.
A system, comprising:
- logic;
- and
- a touch-sensitive display coupled to said logic, said display having an unrenderable outer portion;
- wherein the logic detects a person's finger moving across the unrenderable outer portion and, in response, causes a virtual input device image to be rendered on the display.
