  • Data input device
    Patent number: 7893924
    Abstract: A data input device and method including an illuminator operative to illuminate at least one engagement plane by directing light along the at least one engagement plane, a two-dimensional imaging sensor viewing the at least one engagement plane from a location outside the at least one engagement plane for sensing light from the illuminator scattered by engagement of a data entry object with the at least one engagement plane and data entry processor receiving an output from the two-dimensional imaging sensor and providing a data entry input to utilization circuitry.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 24, 2007
    Date of Patent: February 22, 2011

  • Virtual data entry device and method for input of alphanumeric and other data
    Patent number: 7305368
    Abstract: A data input device including an optically generated image of a data input device, the image including at least one input zone actuable by an action performed thereon by a user, a sensor operative to sense the action performed on the at least one input zone, and to generate signals in response to the action, and a processor in communication with the sensor operative to process the signals for performing an operation associated with the at least one input zone.
