WIRELESS UPLINK COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18066466 titled 'WIRELESS UPLINK COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The disclosed technology is a system for controlling a digital inking device. It allows the device to communicate electrostatic inking signals with an ink-receiving computing device, enabling the digital inking device to render digital ink on the display of the computing device.
- The technology detects the proximity of a peripheral communication device to the digital inking device.
- When the peripheral device is detected, the digital inking device transitions from the inking mode to a non-inking mode.
- In the non-inking mode, the communication of electrostatic inking signals between the digital inking device and the ink-receiving computing device is terminated.
- Instead, the digital inking device communicates electrostatic data signals with the peripheral communication device in the non-inking mode.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Digital note-taking devices that can seamlessly switch between inking and non-inking modes.
- Collaborative work environments where multiple digital inking devices can interact with a central computing device.
- Interactive whiteboards or displays that can be controlled by digital inking devices.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Seamless transition between inking and non-inking modes without interrupting the user's workflow.
- Efficient communication between digital inking devices and peripheral communication devices.
- Simplified control and interaction between digital inking devices and ink-receiving computing devices.
Benefits of this technology:
- Enhanced user experience with digital inking devices.
- Improved productivity and collaboration in various settings.
- Flexibility in using digital inking devices for different purposes.
Original Abstract Submitted
The disclosed technology controls a digital inking device by communicating electrostatic inking signals between the digital inking device and an ink-receiving computing device in an inking mode enabling the digital inking device to render digital ink in a display of the ink-receiving computing device via the electrostatic inking signals, detecting proximity of a peripheral communication device relative to the digital inking device, transitioning the digital inking device from the inking mode to a non-inking mode that terminates communication of the electrostatic inking signals between the digital inking device and the ink-receiving computing device, based at least in part on the detecting operation, and communicating electrostatic data signals in the non-inking mode between the digital inking device and the peripheral communication device in the non-inking mode, based at least in part on the transitioning to the non-inking mode.
