US Classification:

715716, 715838

Abstract:

International Classification:

G05B 13/02

Abstract:

Operating an application in response to spatial status of objects within a physical environment in which the application operates. A system detects the spatial status (e.g., orientation, movement, position, and so forth) of multiple environmental objects that operate within a physical environment from which input is provided to, and to which output is provided from, an application. The relationship between at least some different environmental objects result in altered a behavior of the application. The spatial status of at least some of the environmental objects is subject to change. Thus, a mechanism is described that allows an application to adjust in a manner that is highly responsive to the physical environment in which the application interfaces.

International Classification:

G06F 3/01
G06F 3/0484

Abstract:

Gesture recognition and sharing technology that allows a user to gesture to share portions of a user interface. Upon recognizing when a portion selection gesture has been entered on a display, an associated portion of the user interface is identified based on spatial relation of the portion selection gesture. In response, the system causes the associated portion of the user interface to be shared for display on a remote display, perhaps by even sharing the portion of the application that generated the user interface portion. The portion selection gesture may be a position gesture that is centered on the portion to be displayed. The portion selection gesture may be a negative gesture that centers over a portion of the user interface not to be shared. By appropriate combination of position and negative gestures, fine-grained and efficient definition of the set of shared user interface element(s) may be made.

Bao Quoc Nguyen - Bellevue WA, US

International Classification:

G06F 3/0484
G06F 3/01

Abstract:

A user interface to share portions of applications between hardware entities and users thereof. The user interface is configured such that a user may select a portion of the user interface (and potentially also use redaction interactions) to identify an appropriate portion of the user interface to share. The user may also select a target hardware entity for that selected portion. Then, the portion of the application that generates that portion (appropriately redacted) of the user interface is shared with the selected target hardware entity. When that selected portion is run on that target entity, the associated user(s) will thus see the portion of the user interface (appropriately redacted). Accordingly, a user may quickly share portions of an application with another user via the use of refined portion selection interactions, and potentially also redaction user interactions.

International Classification:

G06F 9/45
G06F 9/44

Abstract:

The splitting of an application in response to detected environmental events (such as user input). Such splitting may be performed for purposes of sharing the application. The application is a transformation chain instance. From the detected environmental event(s), it is determined that a portion transformation chain class is to be created from the larger transformation chain class of the application. In response, the portion transformation chain class is created, instantiated and operated. A sharing mechanism may be used to allow the split portion of the application to be shared with other entities without losing control.

International Classification:

G06F 9/54

Abstract:

Mechanisms for a presentation module to perform distributed interfacing with an application across a plurality of hardware entities. The module identifies the hardware entities that are available to interface with endpoints of an application. The presentation module performs distribution of assignment of hardware entities to interact with the endpoints by, for each of at least some of the hardware entities, determining a subset of endpoints with which the corresponding hardware entities is to interface. Furthermore, the application is operated in that state to thereby detect interaction of at least some of the hardware entities with the application via at least some of the endpoints. Thus, distributed interfacing of hardware entities with an application is facilitated.

International Classification:

G06F 9/44

US Classification:

717104

Abstract:

The facilitated selection of an event that would trigger a control to perform a behavior. The control has multiple events that that may be used to trigger a behavior. It could perhaps be difficult for a user, especially a non-programmer, to select the appropriate event that triggers any given behavior. The system helps by automatically identifying a set of one or more events that are consistent with an intent for the control to perform a behavior of interest, in response to the user specifying the behavior. The automatically identified event might also depend on data of interest that the user identifies as to be operated upon by the control in performing the behavior. The system might propose one or more of the automatically identified events, and might even automatically configure the control to perform the behavior in response to a selected event.
