Abstract: A dual-screen client device includes a user interface for providing content and application tools to a user in an easy to use manner. Different inputs of the user interface are presented to the user on one or both of the screens depending on a current state of the device and in response to user operation. Content such as an item of interest in a particular application is presented on one screen while tools or other inputs for that application are provided on the other screen. Through user operation of the interface or physical manipulation of the client device, the content and tools are swapped between the dual screens. For instance, buttons and menus can be brought up front to a closer screen for quick input, while active content (e.g., video chat, full image, drawings) is presented on the farther screen.

Abstract: A computer-implemented technique can include displaying, at a touch display of a computing system having one or more processors, a first layout of a set of content items. The technique can include receiving, at the touch display, a first touch input from a user, the first touch input comprising two spot inputs. The technique can include receiving, at the touch display, a second touch input comprising a slide input from one of the spot inputs in a direction towards or away from the other spot input, the slide input having a length. The technique can include displaying, at the touch display, one or more transitional layouts of the set of content items based on the direction and length of the slide input. The technique can also include when the user breaks contact with the touch display, displaying, at the touch display, a second layout of the set of content items.

Abstract: A transcription module having a mounting unit, acoustical receivers and an EM detector is disclosed. The mounting unit is adapted for positioning the transcription module over a work surface. First and second acoustical receivers are attached to the mounting unit. Each acoustical receiver includes a microphone positioned over a corresponding location on the work surface. Each microphone views the work surface at the corresponding location and is configured to receive acoustical signals from an input device operating over the work surface at another location. The EM detector detects an EM signal that is synchronized with the acoustical signals.
