Abstract
A smart desk having one or more touch displays is provided. The smart desk can be programmed with one or more touch or touchless gestures for executing computer commands or manipulating content displayed on the one or more touch displays. Touchless gestures can be executed by the smart desk by tracking a user's movements with a motion sensor. The touch gestures can instruct the smart desk to transfer content between the one or more touch displays, expand content on the one or more touch displays, close a tab or a window, minimize a window, and/or switch between applications. The touchless gestures can include copy, paste, scroll, screen shot, page turn, and/or zoom in or out.

A smart desk comprising:
- a first touch display and a second touch display;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory having computer code stored thereon which, when executed, causes the processor to (i) detect a gesture at the first touch display;
- (ii) determine whether the gesture is indicative of a user's desire to transfer content displayed on the first touch display to the second touch display;
- and (iii) if the gesture is indicative of the user's desire to transfer the content, causing the content to be transferred from the first touch display to the second touch display;
- wherein the gesture includes a first touch user input for selecting the content and a second touch user input for transferring the selected content from the first touch display to the second touch display.
A method comprising:
- detecting a gesture at a first touch display, the gesture including a first touch user input for selecting content displayed on the first touch display and a second touch user input for indicating a desire to transfer the selected content from the first touch display to a second touch display;
- determining whether the gesture is indicative of a user's desire to transfer content displayed on the first touch display to the second touch display;
- transferring the content from the first touch display to the second touch display if the gesture is indicative of the user's desire to transfer the content.
