Disclosed herein is a display apparatus including a curved display module having a curved surface bent in a y-axis direction, a surface overlay disposed on the front surface of the curved display module and having a refractive index differing from an air layer, at least one IR emitter arranged on the upper long side or the lower long side of the surface overlay and emitting IR light, and at least one first IR receiver arranged on the long side opposite the at least one first IR emitter and receiving the IR light emitted by the at least one IR emitter. The curved display apparatus may more accurately and effectively recognize touch input and thus, user convenience may be improved.

Display Substrate and Preparation Method Thereof, and Display Apparatus

Provided is a display substrate, which includes a base substrate, a circuit structure layer disposed on the base substrate, multiple ultrasonic sensing elements and multiple micro light-emitting elements. The multiple ultrasonic sensing elements are disposed on a side of the circuit structure layer away from the base substrate, and are electrically connected to the circuit structure layer, and the multiple light-emitting elements are disposed on the side of the circuit structure layer away from the base substrate, and are electrically connected to the circuit structure layer. An orthographic projection of the multiple ultrasonic sensing elements on the base substrate does not overlap with an orthographic projection of the multiple micro light-emitting elements on the base substrate.

Haptic interface for population of a three-dimensional virtual environment

The disclosure provides an approach for populating a virtual environment with objects. In one embodiment, an editing application may track a handheld device using sensor data from a camera, by following an image displayed on the handheld device's screen. The editing application then updates the position of an object in the virtual environment according to the tracked position of the handheld device. Initially, the handheld device may be placed at a fixed location for calibration purposes, during which the editing application initializes a mapping between the virtual and physical environments. To add an object to the virtual environment, a user may select the object on the handheld device. The user may then place the object at a desired location and orientation in the virtual environment by moving the handheld device in the physical environment.

A projector acquires the distance from the projector to a screen. When the acquired distance is short, the projector increases the shutter speed of an electronic shutter of an imaging section, whereas when the acquired distance is long, the projector decreases the shutter speed of the electronic shutter of the imaging section. A pointer outputs infrared light for a predetermined period, and the imaging section of the projector captures the infrared light outputted by the pointer at the set shutter speed and identifies the position of the pointer.

DEVICE COMPRISING TOUCHSCREEN AND CAMERA

A device comprising a touchscreen and a camera for imaging a reflection of the touchscreen by a cornea of a user operating the device is provided. The device is configured for displaying a user-interface element on the touchscreen and detecting an interaction by a finger of a hand with the user-interface element. The device is further configured for, in response to detecting the interaction, acquiring an image of the reflection of the touchscreen from the camera, determining which finger of the hand is used for interacting with the user-interface element, and performing an action dependent on the finger used for the interaction. By also assigning a meaning to the finger which is being used for interacting with touchscreen-based devices, such that different actions are performed dependent on the finger used for the interaction, embodiments of the invention support simpler, faster, and more intuitive, user interaction.
