Abstract
In an example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a method may include capturing data entered on a touch sensitive mat or on an object physically disposed on the touch sensitive mat. The method further includes extracting the data from the captured image, and developing contextual information from the data extracted from the captured image. The method further includes projecting the contextual information onto the touch sensitive mat or onto the object.
Claims15
A method comprising:
- capturing an image of data entered on a touch sensitive mat or on dry object physically disposed on the touch sensitive mat;
- extracting the data from the captured image;
- developing contextual information from the data extracted from the captured image;
- and
- projecting the contextual information onto the touch sensitive mat or onto the object.
A system, comprising:
- a support structure including a base, an upright member extending upward from the base, and a cantilevered top extending outward from the upright member and including a fold mirror and a plurality of sensors;
- a projector assembly attachable to the upright member;
- a computing device attachable to the projector assembly;
- and
- a touch sensitive mat communicatively coupled to the computing device, on to which the projector is to project an image, wherein the projector is to project the image upward to reflect off the mirror and on to the mat, and wherein the computing device is to cause:
- the plurality of sensors to capture an image of data on an object physically disposed on the mat;
- the computing device to extract data from the captured image:
- the computing device to develop contextual information from the data extracted from the captured image;
- and
- the projector assembly to project the contextual information onto the mat or onto the object.
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions executable by a processing resource of a computing system comprising a touch sensitive mat, a projector assembly to project images on the mat, and a plurality of sensors disposed above and pointed at the mat, the instructions executable to:
- capture an image of data entered on the mat or on an object physically disposed on the mat;
- extract the data from the captured image;
- develop contextual information from the data extracted from the captured image;
- and
- project the contextual information onto the matt or onto the object.
