  • Publication number: 20130174075
    Abstract: A method for acquiring program parameters of a component in a graphical user interface of a piece of equipment and an operating method for a piece of equipment are provided. The method for acquiring program parameters of a component includes: detecting a selection of a component in a graphical user interface window, obtaining a first data set for searching the selected component, presenting the first data along with corresponding indications on a window frame to obtain an approved second data set, and storing the approved data set to a resource file. The method for operating a piece of equipment includes: reading a resource file, searching a window handle of a component described in the file in a graphical user interface window, performing a data read operation or a user operation by using the window handle and a corresponding parameter template in response to a request message.

  • Publication number: 20110142278
    Abstract: A visual-based contactless communication device adapted to communicate with one or more visual-based contactless devices includes a photographic device for photographing image data displayed by one or more visual-based contactless communication devices; a center control device for identifying predetermined information in the image data, producing response information according to the predetermined information and generating effective image data identifiable by one or more visual-based contactless communication devices according to the response information or specified information; and a display device for displaying the effective image data to be photographed by one or more visual-based contactless communication devices; wherein when two visual-based contactless communication devices communicate with each other, one displays the effective image data with the response information after identifying the predetermined information, and the other proceeds with subsequent communication only after identifying the eff

  • Publication number: 20080147239
    Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus with surface information displaying, wherein a skin unit comprising a flexible display is covered on the surface of a moving object of the apparatus such that the surface of the apparatus is capable of displaying the information such us color, pattern or text immediately by software control. Meanwhile, the flexible display further has a layer of tactile sensing unit for detecting input of interacting signal. In addition, the moving object further integrates an environmental sensing device, an information identifying device or a combination of both and uses the environmental status, text information or audio/video, which are generated from the environmental sensing device or information identifying device, as an input signal through cable or wireless technology so as to generate responsive action through the flexible display or mechanism of the apparatus so that interactivities of the apparatus can be increased.
