A change in the display screen image comprises a graphical continuation of a change in the touch screen image.

An electronic desk includes at least two interactive panels hinged to a support structure. The interactive panels are hingeably positionable in at least a horizontal and vertical position. The electronic desk further includes a computing device to provide computing resources to the interactive panels. A plurality of virtual machines interfaceable at the interactive panels may be included in the computing device. At least one virtual machine is to be formed in the computing device in response to detecting a request from a second user logging onto the computing device via one of the interactive panels after a first user has logged onto the computing device. The computing device is to provide additional input interfaces on the at least two interactive panels associated with each of the at last one of the virtual machines of the computing device.

Touch responsive displays that may be integrated into a wide variety of non-transparent, non-glass surfaces to provide on-demand human computer interfaces that blend with the environment, i.e., remain invisible unless activated, effectively adding digital user interfaces (UI) to non-technology products and surfaces. The interactive display devices are frameless assemblies of a sensor layer, a light layer, and a support layer housing a microcontroller, wherein the device is configured to be positioned beneath a non-transparent surface layer with the sensor layer arranged below the surface layer.

An apparatus for sharing information in a space comprising a first two dimensional outer emissive surface, a first two dimensional inner emissive surface, a support structure resting on and extending upward from the support floor, the support structure supporting the first outer emissive surface with a first outer surface bottom edge at a work surface height, a first outer surface top edge at a ridge height above the work surface height and supporting the first inner emissive surface with a first inner surface bottom edge at a valley height below the work surface height, a first inner surface top edge at a height above the work surface height, the first inner emissive surface spaced behind the first outer emissive surface by at least twelve inches to form a space between the first outer emissive surface and the first inner emissive surfaces.

A conferencing arrangement for sharing information within a conference space, the arrangement comprising a common presentation surface including a presentation surface area, a common presentation surface driver, a system processor linked to the driver and receiving and presenting the information content via the common presentation surface and a portable user interface device including a device display screen and a device processor, the device processor programmed to provide an interface via the device display screen useable to view content and to enter a command to replicate content presented on the device display on the common presentation surface, the device processor capable of identifying a direction of a swiping action on the interface as a command to replicate the content, wherein, upon identifying that the direction of a swiping action on the interface is in the direction of the common presentation surface, the arrangement creates a sharing space on the presentation surface area and replicates the content from the device display within the sharing space.

An example display system is disclosed. The modular accessory system comprises a display unit, and a base attached to the display unit. The base comprises a communication interface to establish a connection between the display unit of the modular accessory system and at least one other display unit of another modular accessory system. The modular accessory system also comprises a stand attached to the base, and the stand holds a power cable to power the modular accessory system.

An interactive restaurant table assembly includes a table that is positionable in a restaurant. A plurality of proximity sensors is provided and each of the proximity sensors is coupled to the table. Each of the proximity sensors is turned on when a patron moves within a trigger distance of the proximity sensors. A plurality of touch screens is each of the touch screens is coupled to the table. Each of the touch screens displays menu of the restaurant thereby facilitating the patron to order from the menu. A transceiver is coupled to the table and the transceiver is in communication with each of the touch screens for receiving the patron's order from each of the touch screens. The transceiver is in wireless communication with a central computer system of the restaurant thereby facilitating restaurant employees to receive the patron's order.

A modular accessory system includes a base, a power interface attached to the base, and a communication interface attached to the base. The base is connectable to a base of an additional modular accessory system. The power interface is to provide power to or receive power from the additional modular accessory system responsive to the modular accessory system switching from a first mode to a second mode. The communication interface is to communicate with the additional modular accessory system responsive to the modular accessory system switching from the first mode to the second mode.

A terminal is provided. The terminal includes a horizontal touch-based operating surface, a first vertical support side car, and a second vertical support safe enclosure. The operating surface includes integrated transaction devices that perform transaction processing on the terminal. The operating surface can be dynamically switched between a self-service mode of operation, an assisted service mode of operation, and a teller-service mode of operation. Each mode of operation dynamically orients displayed information on the operating surface to a particular side or both sides of the operating surface and selectively activates and deactivates the integrated devices.
