Abstract: A latch module includes a fixing member and a sliding member. A first surface of the fixing member is configured to align and engage with a mounting surface of a detachable device. A sliding unit of the sliding member is relative to a guiding unit of the fixing member and allows the sliding member to slide linearly with respect to the fixing member. The sliding member includes a pushing portion corresponding to a switching column on a resilient arm of the fixing member. While the sliding member is slid to a first position, the switching column is away from the pushing portion and a convex portion of the resilient arm tends to push against the mounting surface. While the sliding member is slid to a second position, the pushing portion pushes the switching column to drive the convex portion away from the mounting surface.

Abstract: A slide presentation system and a method of performing the same which are capable of providing a real-time interaction among conference presenter and attendees are disclosed. When a projector projects at least one slide to as map a screened image generated from a host, an image identifying unit identifies a pointer after an image capturing unit imaging the content expressed on the projected slide. After the pointer is identified, an orienting unit detects a two-dimension coordinate value with reference to where the pointer is pointed on the projected slide as the same as the screened image of the host. Then, the two-dimension coordinate values are transmitted to the host for determining an action of the pointer according to the two-dimension coordinate value with reference to the screened image of the host. By the present invention, the pointer pointing on the projected slide can be directly implemented as functioning a mouse.
