  • Touch input hover
    Patent number: 11023070
    Abstract: An input mode trigger is detected so that a computing system treats inputs from a touch sensing device as touch inputs. A focus area input mechanism is displayed on the display screen. A hover mode touch input is detected, and a touch input on the touch sensing device is mirrored by corresponding movement of visual indicia on the focus area input mechanism on the display screen. Other touch gestures are used to perform operations within the focus area input mechanism.
    Type: Grant

  • USING AN ALTERNATE INPUT DEVICE AS A MANEUVERABLE EMULATED TOUCH SCREEN DEVICE
    Publication number: 20200249825
    Abstract: An input mode trigger is detected so that a computing system treats inputs from a touch sensing device as touch inputs. A focus area input mechanism, which is smaller than a display screen controlled by the computing system, is displayed on the display screen. A maneuver touch input is detected, and the focus area input mechanism is moved, on the display screen, to a new position based upon the maneuver touch input. Other touch gestures are used to perform operations within the focus area input mechanism.
