PRIVACY SCREEN - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18234583 titled 'PRIVACY SCREEN
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system where a first device with a display and an image sensor receives data from a second device with a different display. The first device uses the image sensor to determine the position of the second device's display relative to itself. Based on this information, the first device displays content on its own display using the data received from the second device.
- A first device with a display and image sensor receives data from a second device with a different display.
- The first device uses the image sensor to determine the position of the second device's display relative to itself.
- Content is displayed on the first device's display based on the data received from the second device and the determined position of the second device's display.
Potential Applications
- Collaborative work environments where multiple devices can share and display content.
- Gaming applications where the second device's display can be used as an additional screen or controller.
- Augmented reality applications where the second device's display can provide additional information or visuals.
Problems Solved
- Simplifies the process of sharing and displaying content between different devices.
- Allows for more interactive and immersive experiences by utilizing multiple displays.
- Provides a seamless way to incorporate additional screens or controllers into various applications.
Benefits
- Enhanced collaboration and productivity in work environments.
- Improved gaming experiences with additional screens or controllers.
- More immersive and interactive augmented reality applications.
Original Abstract Submitted
A first device coupled with a first display and an image sensor receives output data from a second device having a second display different from the first display. The output data represents content displayable by the second device on the second display. The first device determines, using the image sensor, a position of the second display relative to the first device and causes the first display to display content based on the output data received from the second device and the determined position of the second display relative to the first device.
