  • Publication number: 20230394763
    Abstract: A tangible object virtualization station including a base capable of stably resting on a surface and a head component unit connected to the base. The head component unit extends upwardly from the base. At an end of the head component opposite the base, the head component comprises a camera situated to capture a downward view of the surface proximate the base, a lighting array that directs light downward toward the surface proximate the base. The tangible object virtualization station further comprises a display interface included in the base. The display interface is configured to hold a display device in an upright position and connect the display device to the camera and the lighting array.

  • Publication number: 20130241381
    Abstract: A one-piece case for enclosing a computing device such as a tablet computer is molded from a single material into a single piece. The case comprises a base portion to hold the computing device and a cover portion to cover the front or screen of the computing device. By varying the thickness of the material used in different areas of the one-piece case, the two portions of the case may be hinged together. Similarly, because of the areas of differing thicknesses, the cover portion of the one-piece case can be folded into various configurations, thereby creating a stand for the computing device.
