Abstract: An information handling system input device coordinates presentation of keyboard augmentation panels proximate a keyboard resting on a horizontally-disposed touchscreen display. The keyboard augmentation panels relate keyboard and other inputs to an application active on the information handling system to enhance end user interactions. A keyboard augmentation module tracks the keyboard position on the touchscreen display to adapt content presentation in the keyboard augmentation panels based upon expected end user inputs. In other embodiments, other physical devices are augmented to have hybrid graphical interfaces that enhance multi-hand end user interactions.

Abstract: In some examples, a computing device may include a first and a second touchscreen display device. A first document may be displayed on the first touchscreen and a second document may be displayed on the second touchscreen. A stylus may be used to select and copy content from the first document to a clipboard application. After receiving a preview command, the computing device may determine a first location of a tip of the stylus and display a preview of the content near the first location. The computing device may determine that the tip of the stylus has moved from the first location to a second location and move the preview of the content to be near the second location. After receiving a paste instruction from the stylus, the computing device may paste the content near the second location.

Abstract: In some implementations a computing device may comprise a first and a second display device. A zone may be defined on the first display device. The computing device may receive selection input selecting an object and receive directional input to move the object on the first display device. After determining that a location of the object is within a predetermined distance from (or within) a boundary of the zone, a message indicating an action associated with the zone may be displayed. After determining that at least a portion of the object is within the boundary of the zone, the action may be performed. The action may include moving the object to the second display device, opening (e.g., maximizing) a window associated with the object to span both the first and second display device, or storing the object in the zone for subsequent retrieval on the second display device.

Abstract: An information handling system operating an augmented presentation management system may include a processor receiving a first three-dimensional image of a first presenter including data of a presenter location relative to a presenter digital display device captured via a three-dimensional camera, the processor receiving data describing the position and display characteristics of a virtual, shared presentation graphical display element similar to a presentation graphical display element displayed on a presenter screen, and the processor executing code instructions of the augmented presentation management system to instruct a digital display device to display the first three-dimensional image of the first presenter interacting with a displayed virtual, shared presentation graphical display element, wherein the augmented presentation management system instructs the digital display device to display the virtual, shared presentation graphical display element such that both the first three-dimensional image of the

Abstract: Projected input and output devices adapt to a desktop environment by sensing objects at the desktop environment and altering projected light in response to the sensed objects. For instance, projection of input and output devices is altered to limit illumination against and end user's hands or other objects disposed at a projection surface. End user hand positions and motions are detected to provide gesture support for adapting a projection work space, and configurations of projected devices are stored so that an end user can rapidly recreate a projected desktop. A projector scan adjusts to limit traces across inactive portions of the display surface and to increase traces at predetermined areas, such as video windows.

Abstract: An information handling system presents visual images at plural display devices and moves the visual images at the display devices responsive to touches made at one or more of the display devices with movement managed in a point mode or a touch mode as selected by one or more predetermined inputs. In the touch mode, the visual image moves as the touch moves. At detection of the predetermined input to select the point mode, the visual image moves a greater distance than the touch movement so that the end user is able to move the visual image between separate display devices.

Abstract: A totem device accepts inputs from an end user and communicates the inputs to an information handling system through a capacitive mat by moving an interactive portion of the totem relative to a main portion. In one embodiment, the capacitive mat integrates a display that presents input images proximate the totem, such as a volume gauge or mouse keys. Interactive portions include compressible materials that alter surface area pressed against a capacitive mat when pressed upon and plungers that move independent of a main body to press. In one embodiment, a camera captures images of the totem to enhance the distinguishing of inputs.

Abstract: An information handling system touchscreen discriminates touches with a tool discriminator before analyzing the touches with a touch discriminator that identifies touches as intended or unintended inputs. The tool discriminator isolates touches associated with tools to assign tool functions to tool touches so that touch discriminator analysis is bypassed for tools, thus providing a more rapid and accurate horizontal workspace having tools placed on the touchscreen.

Abstract: A non-linear user interface display presented at a desktop conforms to dimensions of a user detected by a depth camera, such as by presenting the user interface along an arc having a radius determined from a reach of the user detected by the depth camera. Windows presented in the arc vary in size based upon their position relative to a user focus, such as by detecting a user gaze direction or by comparing position to a central display mat. User gestures control presentation of visual images in the arc, such rotating visual image windows in a circular manner around the arc radius and to different orientations in the arc relative to the user.

Either the head mounted computing device or base computing device could have a processor executing code instructions of a multiple device augmented surface management system to determine the edges of the base computing device or a user interface as captured in the image of the base computing device. The information handling system may also receive data allowing it to correlate a base user interface element as displayed on the base computing device with an image of the base user interface element as captured in the three-dimensional image of the base computing device.
