Abstract
A computing device can include a first enclosure and a display enclosure. A tag can be on the first enclosure. A sensor on the display enclosure can detect the tag location and generate sensor data. A controller can determine from the sensor data the relative position between the display enclosure and the first enclosure.
Claims15
A computing device comprising:
- a first enclosure;
- a display enclosure;
- a tag on the first enclosure;
- a sensor on the display enclosure to detect a tag location on the first enclosure and generate sensor data;
- and
- a controller to determine from the sensor data the relative position between the display enclosure and the first enclosure.
3 more elements
A system comprising:
- a tablet computing device;
- a IR sensor in the tablet computing device generate IR sensor data from an object moving in a volume;
- a connector to couple the tablet computing device to a docking station;
- a controller in the tablet computing device to determine relative position between the docking station and the tablet computing device from a tag in the IR sensor data.
1 more element
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising code that if executed by a controller of a computing device in an enclosure causes the controller to:
- receive IR sensor data from an IR sensor;
- determine a relative position of IR tags from the IR sensor data;
- determine from the relative position of the IR tags an enclosure relative position between an enclosure and a first enclosure;
- and
- determine the gesture input volume based on the relative position between the enclosure and the first enclosure.
