Abstract
An interactive input system comprises a display unit having a display surface, a bezel disposed around at least a portion of the periphery of a region of interest proximate at least a portion of said display surface and having an inwardly facing surface and an elongate arm assembly configured to be mounted to the display unit. The arm assembly supports imaging devices thereon and is longitudinally extendable to position the imaging devices at spaced locations relative to the display surface such that the fields of view of the imaging devices encompass the region of interest.
Claims21
An interactive input system comprising:
- a display unit having a display surface;
- a bezel disposed around at least a portion of the periphery of a region of interest proximate at least a portion of said display surface and having an inwardly facing surface;
- and
- an elongate arm assembly configured to be mounted to the display unit, said arm assembly supporting imaging devices thereon and being longitudinally extendable to position the imaging devices at spaced locations relative to the display surface such that the fields of view of the imaging devices encompass the region of interest.
An arm assembly configured to be mounted to a display unit, said arm assembly supporting imaging devices thereon and being longitudinally extendable to position the imaging devices at spaced locations relative to a display surface of said display unit such that the fields of view of the imaging devices look generally across said display surface.
A kit for an interactive input system comprising:
- a plurality of bezel segments configurable to form a reflective bezel for surrounding at least a portion of the periphery of a region of interest adjacent at least a portion of a display unit;
- and
- an elongate arm assembly configured to be mounted to the display unit, said arm assembly supporting imaging devices thereon and being longitudinally extendable to position the imaging devices at spaced locations relative to the display surface such that the fields of view of the imaging devices encompass the region of interest.
