Apparatus, methods and computer readable storage mediums for providing a user interface

A method comprising:

• providing a support configured to support a portable device;
• coupling a display to the support, the display being configured to receive and display a projected image, the projected image being projected by the portable device;
• wherein the support comprises one or more optical components configured to at least partially direct the projected image from the portable device to the display, the one or more optical components comprising one or more lenses;
• and
• providing a user input device configured to provide a signal, indicative of one or more user inputs, to the portable device to control the portable device, wherein the user input device comprises a substrate of the display and an electromagnetic radiation source configured to provide electromagnetic radiation to the substrate, the electromagnetic radiation being substantially totally internally reflected within the substrate and wherein the signal provided to the portable device comprises electromagnetic radiation scattered from one or more portions of the display contacted by the user.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium encoded with instructions that, when executed by a processor, perform:

• receiving an image from a portable device at an apparatus comprising:
• a support configured to support the portable device,
• a display coupled to the support and configured to receive and display a projected image, the projected image being projected by the portable device,
• a projector configured to receive an image from the portable device and to project the image to the display,
• wherein the support comprises one or more optical components configured to at least partially direct the projected image from the portable device to the display, the one or more optical components comprising one or more lenses, and
• a user input device configured to provide a signal, indicative of one or more user inputs, to the portable device to control the portable device, wherein the user input device comprises a substrate of the display and an electromagnetic radiation source configured to provide electromagnetic radiation to the substrate, the electromagnetic radiation being substantially totally internally reflected within the substrate and wherein the signal provided to the portable device comprises electromagnetic radiation scattered from one or more portions of the display contacted by the user;
• and
• projecting the received image from the projector to the display.

A device comprising:

• a display configured to received image data comprising an image and configured to display the image;
• a projector configured to receive the image data comprising the image and configured to project the image onto a display coupled to a support apparatus, via one or more optical components of the support apparatus, the one or more optical components comprising one or more lenses, wherein the projector is configured to project an image having a graphical user interface;
• and
• a sensor configured to receive a signal indicative of one or more user inputs to the graphical user interface on a touch screen portion of the display coupled to the support apparatus, wherein the sensor is configured to received a signal having electromagnetic radiation scattered from one or more portions of the display contacted by a user;
• wherein the device is configured to be supported by the support apparatus.
