Abstract
An interface system for facilitating human interfacing with a computing device is provided. The interface system comprises an input device arranged to detect touch based inputs made by an object and to communicate the detected inputs to the computing device. The interface system also comprises a position detection system arranged to obtain positional information indicative of a position of the object relative to the input device. The interface system is arranged to use the positional information to facilitate display of visual information on a display of the computing device, the visual information being indicative of a position of the object relative to the input device so as to assist a user in operation of the input device.

An interface system for facilitating human interfacing with a computing device, the interface system comprising:
- an input device arranged to detect touch based inputs made by an object and to communicate the detected inputs to the computing device;
- and
- a position detection system arranged to obtain positional information indicative of a position of the object relative to the input device;
- wherein the interface system is arranged to use the positional information to facilitate display of visual information on a display of the computing device, the display being spaced from the input device and the visual information being indicative of a position of the object relative to the input device so as to assist a user in operation of the input device.
A method of interfacing with a computing device comprising the steps of:
- obtaining positional information indicative of a position of an object relative to an input device, the input device being arranged to detect touch based inputs made by an object and to communicate the detected inputs to the computing device;
- and
- facilitating display of visual information on a display of the computing device, the display being spaced from the input device and the visual information being indicative of a position of the object relative to the input device so as to assist a user in operation of the input device.
