具体实施方式
概述
被嵌入服装及其它柔性物体(例如,毯子、手提包以及帽子)中的电子装置变得越来越常见。这样的电子装置常常需要连接到外部设备用于电力和/或数据传送。例如,将庞大的电子组件(例如,电池、微处理器、无线单元以及传感器)整合到可穿戴服装(诸如衬衫、外套或裤子)中可能是困难的。此外,将这样的电子组件连接到服装可引起耐久性方面的问题,因为服装常常被洗涤。然而,诸如感测电路的某些电子组件被装配成位于服装内更好。
描述了一种具有多个电子模块的交互式物体。交互式物体(例如,服装)至少包括包含用于交互式物体的电子组件的第一子集的内部电子模块以及包含用于交互式物体的电子组件的第二子集的外部电子模块。如本文所述,内部电子模块可在物理上且永久性地耦合到交互式物体,而外部电子模块可以可移除方式耦合到交互式物体。因此,作为将所有电子装置整合在交互式物体内的替代,电子装置中的至少某些被置于外部电子模块中。
在一个或多个实施方式中,交互式物体包括具有被编织到织物中以形成柔性触摸板的导电丝线的交互式织物。内部电子模块包含感测电路,所述感测电路被直接耦合到导电丝线以实现对到交互式织物的触摸输入的检测。外部电子模块包含处理和通信触摸输入数据(诸如微处理器、电源、网络接口等)所需的电子组件。
交互式物体进一步包括通信接口,所述通信接口被配置为实现内部电子模块与外部电子模块之间的通信。在某些实施方式中,可将通信接口实施为连接器,所述连接器将外部电子模块中的电子组件连接到内部电子模块中的电子组件以实现模块之间的电力和数据的传输。连接器可包括连接器插头和连接器插座。例如,连接器插头可被实施在外部电子模块处并被构造为连接到连接器插座,其可在交互式物体处实施。
因此,虽然电子组件被分离成多个不同模块,但通信接口使得系统能够充当单一单元。例如,包含在外部电子模块内的电源可经由通信接口向内部电子模块的感测电路传输电力以使得感测电路能够检测对导电丝线的触摸输入。当由内部电子模块的感测电路检测到触摸输入时,表示触摸输入的数据可经由通信接口被传递到包含在外部电子模块内的微处理器。微处理器然后可分析触摸输入数据以生成一个或多个控制信号,所述一个或多个控制信号然后可经由网络接口被传递到远程计算设备(例如,智能电话)以致使计算设备发起特定功能。
将交互式物体的电子装置分离成多个不同的模块提供了各种不同的益处。例如,系统设计实现互操作性和定制性,因为外部电子模块可以被从交互式物体拆卸,并且然后附着到不同的交互式物体以继续某些功能和性质,诸如用户特定设置。另外,通过将服装嵌入式电子装置从外部电子模块分离,用户、设计师和公司能够以对于应用或用户特定的外形因数、机械、材料和表面精整性质来设计外部电子模块。例如,皮夹克可能具有外部电子模块,该外部电子模块为皮革且采取与某夹克风格匹配的带子形式,或者允许将难以在服装内获得的灵活外形因数。
此外,将电子装置分离使得能够在不需要接近整个交互式物体的情况下容易地替换或维修损坏的部分。例如,可以将外部电子模块装运到修理服务,或者可以在不需要购买新的交互式物体的情况下购买新的外部电子模块。另外,将电子组件分离成内部和外部模块确保诸如电池的部分不被暴露于典型的服装将经历的洗涤循环。例如,可以在洗涤交互式物体之前容易地从交互式物体移除可包括电池的外部电子模块。此外,通过将各部分分离,显著地简化了制造挑战,并且可以在正在讨论中的部分上处理验证过程(诸如用于RF传送单元的FCC验证),从而降低复杂性。
示例环境
图1是其中可以实施具有多个电子模块的交互式织物的示例环境100的图示。环境100包括交互式织物102,其被示出为被整合在各种交互式物体104内。交互式织物102是被构造为感测多触摸输入的织物。如本文中所述,织物与由常常称为丝线或纱线的天然或人造纤维的网组成的任何类型的柔性编织材料。可通过编织、针织、钩编、编结或将丝线压在一起来形成织物。
在环境100中,交互式物体104包括“柔性”物体,诸如衬衫104-1、帽子104-2以及手提包104-3。然而,应注意的是交互式织物102可被整合在通过纺织品或类似柔性材料(诸如服装或衣服、毯子、浴帘、毛巾、被单、床单或家具纺织品套的物品,仅举几个例子)制成的任何类型的柔性物体内。交互式织物102可被以各种不同的方式(包括编织、缝纫、胶合等)整合在柔性物体104内。
在本示例中,物体104进一步包括“硬质”物体,诸如塑料杯104-4和硬质智能电话外壳104-5。然而,应注意的是硬质物体104可包括由非柔性或半柔性材料(诸如塑料、金属、铝等)制成的任何类型的“硬质”或“刚性”物体。例如,硬质物体104还可包括塑料椅子、水瓶、塑料球或汽车零件,仅举几个例子。可使用各种不同的制造工艺将交互式织物102整合在硬质物体104内。在一个或多个实施方式中,使用注入模制来将交互式织物102整合到硬质物体104中。
交互式织物102使得用户能够控制交互式织物102被与之整合的物体104或者经由网络108来控制各种其它计算设备106。用各种非限制性示例设备来图示说明计算设备106:服务器106-1、智能电话106-2、膝上型计算机106-3、计算眼镜106-4、电视106-5、相机106-6、平板计算机106-7、台式计算机106-8以及智能手表106-9,但还可使用其它设备,诸如家庭自动化和控制系统、音响或娱乐系统、家用电器、安全系统、上网本以及电子阅读器。请注意,计算设备106可以是可穿戴式的(例如,计算眼镜和智能手表)、不可穿戴但移动式的(例如,膝上计算机和平板计算机)或相对固定的(例如,台式计算机和服务器)。
网络108包括许多类型的无线或部分无线的通信网络中的一个或多个,诸如局域网(LAN)、无线局域网(WLAN)、个域网(PAN)、广域网(WAN)、内联网、互联网、对等网络、点到点网络、网状网络等。
交互式织物102可以通过经由网络108来传送触摸数据而与计算设备106相交互。计算设备106使用触摸数据来控制计算设备106或计算设备106处的应用。作为示例,考虑整合在衬衫104-1处的交互式织物102可被配置为控制用户的口袋中的用户的智能电话106-2、用户的家庭中的电视106-5、用户的手腕上的智能手表106-9或用户的房屋中的各种其它电器,诸如恒温器、灯、音乐等。例如,用户可能能够将整合在用户的衬衫104-1内的交互式织物102向上或向上滑动以致使电视106-5上的音量增大或减小,以致使被用户的房屋中的恒温器所控制的温度升高或降低,或者开启和关掉用户的房屋中的灯。请注意,任何类型的触摸、敲击、滑动、保持或击打手势都可被交互式织物102识别。
更详细地,考虑图2,其图示出包括交互式物体和多个电子模块的示例系统200。在系统200中,交互式织物102被整合在物体104中,所述物体104可被实施为柔性物体(例如,衬衫104-1、帽子104-2或手提包104-3)或硬质物体(例如,塑料杯104-4或智能电话外壳104-5)。
交互式织物102被配置为当用户的手的一个或多个手指触摸到交互式织物102时感测来自用户的多触摸输入。交互式织物102还可被配置为感测来自用户的整只手的触摸输入,诸如当用户的整只手对交互式织物102进行触摸或滑动时。为了实现对触摸输入的检测,交互式织物102包括导电丝线202,其被编织到交互式织物102内(例如,以网格或阵列图案)。特别地,导电丝线202不改变交互式织物102的柔性,这使得交互式织物102能够被容易地整合在交互式物体104内。
交互式物体104包括被嵌入交互式物体104内并直接被耦合到导电丝线202的内部电子模块204。内部电子模块204可以经由通信接口208被通信耦合到外部电子模块206。内部电子模块204包含用于交互式物体104的电子组件的第一子集,并且外部电子模块206包含用于交互式物体104的电子组件的不同的第二子集。如本文所述,内部电子模块204可在物理上且永久性地嵌入在交互式物体104内,而外部电子模块206可以可移除方式耦合到交互式物体104。
在系统200中,在内部电子模块204内所包含的电子组件包括被耦合到被编织到交互式织物102内的导电丝线202的感测电路210。例如,来自导电丝线202的导线可使用柔性PCB、起皱、用导电胶来胶合、焊接等连接到感测电路210。感测电路210被配置为检测导电丝线202上的触摸输入的位置以及该触摸输入的运动。例如,当诸如用户的手指的物体触摸导电丝线202时,可以由感测电路210通过检测导电丝线202的网格或阵列上的电容变化来确定触摸的位置。该触摸输入然后可被用来生成可用来控制计算设备106的触摸数据。例如,可使用触摸输入来确定各种手势,诸如单指触摸(例如,触摸、敲击以及保持)、多手指触摸(例如,两指触摸、两指敲击、两指保持以及捏)、单指和多手指滑动(例如,向上滑动、向下滑动、向左滑动、向右滑动)以及整只手交互(例如,用用户的整只手触摸织物、用用户的整只手覆盖织物、用用户的整只手按压织物、手掌触摸以及在触摸织物的同时滚动、扭绞或旋转用户的手)。
通信接口208实现在内部电子模块204与外部电子模块206之间电力和数据(例如,由感测电路210所检测的触摸输入)的传输。在某些实施方式中,可将通信接口208实施为包括连接连接器插头和连接器插座的连接器。连接器插头可被实施在外部电子模块206处并被构造为连接到连接器插座,其可被实施在交互式物体104处。下面关于图4至6来讨论示例连接器的更详细的讨论。
在系统200中,外部电子模块206包括微处理器212、电源214以及网络接口216。电源214可经由通信接口208被耦合到感测电路210以向感测电路210提供电力以实现对触摸输入的检测,并且可被实施为小电池。当内部电子模块204的感测电路210检测到触摸输入时,表示触摸输入的数据可经由通信接口208被传递到外部电子模块206的微处理器212。微处理器212然后可分析触摸输入数据以生成一个或多个控制信号,所述一个或多个控制信号然后可经由网络接口216被传递到计算设备106(例如,智能电话)以致使计算设备106发起特定功能。一般地,网络接口216被配置为通过有线、无线或光网络向计算设备106通信数据,诸如触摸数据。以示例而非限制的方式,网络接口216可通过局域网(LAN)、无线局域网(WLAN)、个域网(PAN)(例如,BluetoothTM)、广域网(WAN)、内联网、互联网、对等网络、点到点网络、网状网络等(例如,通过图1的网络108)来通信数据。
虽然内部电子模块204和外部电子模块206被图示为并描述为包括特定电子组件,但应认识到的是可用各种不同的方式来配置这些模块。例如,在某些情况下,被描述为被包含在内部电子模块204内的电子组件可至少部分地被实施在外部电子模块206处,并且反之亦然。此外,内部电子模块204和外部电子模块206可包括除图2中所示的那些之外的电子组件,诸如传感器、光源(例如,LED的)、显示器、扬声器等。
图3图示出根据一个或多个实施方式的具有多个电子模块的交互式物体104的示例300。在本示例中,交互式物体104的交互式织物102包括非导电丝线302,所述非导电丝线302与导电丝线202一起编织而形成交互式织物102。非导电丝线302可与任何类型的非导电丝线、纤维或纺织品相对应,诸如棉、羊毛、丝、尼龙、聚酯等。
在304处,图示出导电丝线202的放大视图。导电丝线202包括与柔性丝线308扭绞、编结或缠绕在一起的导电线306。将导电线306与柔性丝线308扭绞在一起致使导电丝线202是柔性且有弹性的,这使得能够容易地将导电丝线202与非导电丝线302编织在一起以形成交互式织物102。
在一个或多个实施方式中,导电线306是细铜线。然而,应注意的是还可使用其它材料(诸如银、金或涂有导电聚合物的其它材料)来实施导电线306。柔性丝线308可被实施为任何类型的柔性丝线或纤维,诸如棉、羊毛、丝、尼龙、聚酯等。
可以使用任何常规的编织过程(例如,提花编织或3D编织)来便宜地且高效地形成交互式织物102,该编织过程涉及到将较长的纱线(称为经纱)的集合与纬线(称为纬纱)的集合交织。可在称为织布机(其有许多类型)的框架或机器上实施编织。因此,织布机可以将非导电丝线302与导电丝线102编织在一起而生成交互式织物102。
在示例300中,将导电丝线202编织到交互式织物102内以形成网格,所述网格包括基本上平行的导电丝线202的集合和基本上平行的导电丝线208的第二集合,其与导电丝线的第一集合交叉而形成网格。在本示例中,导电丝线202的第一集合水平地取向,并且导电丝线202的第二集合垂直地取向,使得导电丝线202的第一集合与导电丝线202的第二集合基本上正交地定位。然而,应注意的是导电丝线202可被取向成使得交叉的导电丝线202并不是彼此正交的。例如,在某些情况下,交叉的导电丝线202可形成菱形网格。虽然导电丝线202在图3中被图示为彼此间隔开,但应注意的是导电丝线202可被非常紧密地编织在一起。例如,在某些情况下,可在每个方向上将两个或三个导电丝线紧密地编织在一起。进一步地,在某些情况下,可将导电丝线取向为相互不交叉或横穿的平行感测行。
在示例300中,感测电路210被示为被整合在物体104内,并且被直接地连接到导电丝线202。在操作期间,感测电路210可以使用自电容感测或投射电容感测来确定触摸输入在导电丝线202的网格上的位置。
例如,当被配置为自电容传感器时,感测电路210通过向每个导电丝线202施加控制信号(例如,正弦信号)来对交叉导电丝线202(例如,水平和垂直导电丝线)充电。当诸如用户的手指的物体触摸导电丝线202的网格时,被触摸的导电丝线202被接地,这改变被触摸导电丝线202上的电容(例如,增加或减小电容)。
感测电路210使用电容变化来识别物体的存在。为此,感测电路210通过检测每个相应的导电丝线202的电容变化来检测哪个水平导电丝线202被触摸和哪个垂直导电丝线202被触摸,从而检测触摸输入的位置。感测电路210使用被触摸的交叉导电丝线202的相交点来确定触摸输入在导电丝线202的网格上的位置。例如,感测电路210可以通过将每个触摸的位置确定为导电丝线208的网格上的X、Y坐标来确定触摸数据。
当被实施为自电容传感器时,当接收到多触摸输入时可能发生“幻影”(ghosting)。例如,考虑用户用两个手指来触摸导电丝线202的网格。当这发生时,感测电路210确定用于两个触摸中的每一个的X和Y坐标。然而,感测电路210可能不能确定如何将每个X坐标与其对应的Y坐标匹配。例如,如果第一触摸具有坐标X1、Y1且第二触摸具有坐标X4、Y4,则感测电路210还可检测“幻影”坐标X1、Y4和X4、Y1。
在一个或多个实施方式中,感测电路210被配置成检测与导电丝线202的网格上的两个或更多触摸输入点相对应的触摸输入的“区域”。可将导电丝线202紧密地编织在一起,使得当物体触摸导电丝线202的网格时,对于多个水平导电丝线202和/或多个垂直导电丝线202而言电容将改变。例如,利用单个手指的单个触摸可生成坐标X1、Y1和X2、Y1。因此,感测电路210可被配置为如果对于多个水平导电丝线202和/或多个垂直导电丝线202而言电容改变则检测到触摸输入。请注意,这移除了幻影效应,因为如果检测到间隔开的两个单点触摸,则感测电路210将不会检测到触摸输入。
替选地,当被实施为投射电容传感器时,感测电路210通过向导电丝线202的单个集合施加控制信号(例如,正弦信号)来对导电丝线202的单个集合(例如,水平导电丝线202)充电。然后,感测电路210感测导电丝线202(例如,垂直电容丝线202)的另一集合中的电容变化。
在本实施方式中,垂直导电丝线202未被充电,并且因此充当虚拟接地。然而,当水平导电丝线202被充电时,水平导电丝线电容耦合到垂直导电丝线202。因此,当诸如用户的手指的物体触摸到导电丝线202的网格时,在垂直导电丝线上电容改变(例如,增加或减小)。感测电路210使用垂直导电丝线202上的电容变化来识别物体的存在。为此,感测电路210通过扫描垂直导电丝线202以检测到电容变化来检测触摸输入的位置。感测电路210将触摸输入的位置确定为具有已改变电容的垂直导电丝线202与在其上面传输控制信号的水平导电丝线202之间的相交点。例如,感测电路210可以通过将每个触摸的位置确定为导电丝线208的网格上的X、Y坐标来确定触摸数据。
无论被实施为自电容传感器还是投射电容传感器,导电丝线202和感测电路210被配置为向经由通信接口208以可移除方式被耦合到交互式物体104的外部电子模块206传递表示所检测的触摸输入的触摸数据。微处理器212然后可引起触摸数据经由网络接口216到计算设备106的通信以使得设备能够基于触摸数据来确定手势,其可以被用来控制物体104、计算设备106或在计算设备106处所实施的应用。
计算设备106可以被实施成识别各种不同类型的手势,诸如对交互式织物102进行的触摸、敲击、滑动、保持以及覆盖。为了识别各种不同类型的手势,计算设备可以被配置为确定触摸、滑动或保持的持续时间(例如,1秒或2秒)、触摸、滑动或保持的数目(例如,单次敲击、双次敲击或三次敲击)、触摸、滑动或保持的手指的数目(例如,单指触摸或滑动、两指触摸或滑动或者三指触摸或滑动)、触摸的频率以及触摸或滑动的动态方向(例如,向上、向下、向左、向右)。关于保持,计算设备106还可以确定被保持的导电丝线202的网格的区域(例如,顶部、底部、左侧、右侧或顶部和底部)。因此,计算设备106可以识别各种不同类型的保持,诸如覆盖、覆盖和保持、五指保持、五指覆盖和保持、三指捏住并保持等。
在一个或多个实施方式中,通信接口208被实施为连接器,其被配置为将外部电子模块206连接到交互式物体104的内部电子模块204。例如,考虑图4,其图示出根据一个或多个实施方式的用于将外部通信模块连接到交互式物体的连接器的示例400。在示例400中,交互式物体104被图示为夹克。
如上所述,交互式物体104包括内部电子模块204,其包括各种类型的电子装置,诸如感测电路210、传感器(例如,被编织到服装内的电容触摸传感器、麦克风或加速度计)、输出设备(例如,LED、扬声器或微显示器)、电路等。
外部电子模块206包括被配置为与内部电子模块204的电子装置相连接和/或对接的各种电子装置。一般地,包含在外部电子模块206内的电子装置不同于包含在内部电子模块204内的那些电子装置,并且可包括电子装置,诸如微处理器212、电源214(例如,电池)、网络接口216(例如,蓝牙或WiFi)、传感器(例如,加速度计、心率监视器或计步器)、输出设备(例如,扬声器、LED)等。
在本示例中,外部电子模块206被实施为包含各种电子装置的带子。例如,该带子可由诸如橡胶、尼龙或任何其它类型的纺织品的材料形成。然而,特别地,外部电子模块206可采取任何类型的形式。例如,作为是带子的替代,外部电子模块206可以类似于圆形或正方形的材料(例如,橡胶或尼龙)块。
连接器402包括连接器插头404和连接器插座406。在本示例中,连接器插头404位于外部电子模块206上,并被构造为附着到连接器插座406(其位于交互式物体104上),以形成外部电子模块206与交互式物体104之间的电子连接。例如,在图4中,连接器插座406位于被图示为夹克交的互式物体104的袖子上。
在各种实施方式中,连接器插头404可类似于急钮(snap)或按钮(button),并且被构造为经由磁性或机械耦合而连接或附着到连接器插座406。例如,在某些实施方式中,连接器插头404和连接器插座406上的磁体致使在连接器插头404与连接器插座406之间形成磁性连接。替选地,这两个组件之间的机械连接可致使组件形成机械耦合,诸如通过“卡扣”在一起。
可用各种不同的方式来实施连接器402。在一个或多个实施方式中,连接器插头404包括各向异性导电聚合物,其被构造为连接到被实施在连接器插座406处的印刷电路板(PCB)的圆形焊盘。在另一实施方式中,连接器插头404可包括柔顺聚氨酯聚合物以提供与被实施在连接器插座406处的金属焊盘的符合性以使得能够实现电磁连接。在另一实施方式中,连接器插头404和连接器插座406每个可包括磁性耦合线圈,其可以被对准以提供电力和数据传送。
图5图示出根据一个或多个实施方式的当用各向异性导电聚合物来实施时的连接器402的示例500。
在502处,示出了连接器插头404的顶侧。在这种情况下,连接器插头404的顶侧类似于圆形、按钮状结构。特别地,可用各种不同形状(例如,正方形或三角形)来实施连接器插头404的顶侧。进一步地,在某些情况下,连接器插头404的顶侧可类似于除按钮或急钮之外的一些东西。
在本示例中,连接器插头404的顶侧包括使得来自光源(例如,LED)发光的光能够透过的小孔。当然,其它类型的输入或输出单元也可以位于这里,诸如麦克风或扬声器。
在504处,示出了连接器插头404的底侧。连接器插头404的底侧包括各向异性导电聚合物506以实现交互式物体104的电子装置与外部电子模块206的电子装置之间的电连接。
更详细地,考虑图6,其图示出根据一个或多个实施方式的当用各向异性导电聚合物来实施时的连接器402的分解视图600。
在本示例中,连接器402的连接器插头404包括按钮帽602、印刷电路板(PCB)604、各向异性导电聚合物606、磁体608以及外壳610。
按钮帽602类似于典型的按钮,并且可由各种不同的材料(诸如塑料、金属等)制成。在本示例中,按钮帽602包括使得来自LED发光的光能够透过的孔。
PCB 604被构造为将交互式物体104的电子装置电连接到各向异性导电聚合物606。PCB 604的顶层可包括发光透过按钮帽602中的孔的LED。PCB 604的底层包括电连接到位于PCB 604下面的各向异性导电聚合物606的接触件。
各向异性导电聚合物606包括被构造为形成与连接器插座406的连接的各向异性材料条。该各向异性材料包括任何类型的各向异性材料。
磁体608被构造为实现到连接器插座406的磁性连接。该磁性连接使得连接器插头404能够在不需要施加力以连接的情况下附着到连接器插座406,这减少了连接随时间推移而磨损的机会。替选地,在一个或多个实施方式中,可在没有磁体608的情况下实施连接器插头404。例如,可以将连接器插头404实施为卡扣到连接器插座406中的物理或机械急钮(snap)。外壳610被构造为保持连接器插头404的组件,并且可以由诸如塑料、金属等的各种不同的材料实施。
在本示例中,连接器插座406包括插座PCB 612,其包括被构造为连接到各向异性导电聚合物606的圆形焊盘。插座PCB 612的底层包括到交互式物体104的电子装置的连接。
连接器插座还可包括金属组件614,其被构造为与连接器插头404的磁体608生成磁力以形成连接器插头404与连接器插座406之间的磁性连接。金属组件614可被实施为任何类型的金属或合金,或者作为另一磁体,其可以与磁体608生成磁力。连接器插座406还可包括其它组件,诸如外壳、垫圈等。
特别地,各向异性导电聚合物606包括有助于良好的连接器的各种性质,其包括旋转容差、机械顺从性、多引脚电和电力传送,并且是防水的。
例如,当连接器插头404附着到连接器插座406时,在各向异性导电聚合物606与插座PCB 612之间形成电连接。各向异性导电聚合物606提供旋转容差(tolerance),因为各向异性材料条可以被旋转360度,并且维持到插座PCB 612的圆形焊盘的相同连接。这是有益的,因为当穿服装时,外部电子模块206的带子将自然地来回移动。因此,旋转容差使得连接器能够在不会失去连接器插头404与连接器插座406之间的连接的情况下被旋转。此外,各向异性导电聚合物606是弹性体的,这致使材料条在机械力下收缩并遵从。
各向异性导电聚合物606同时地提供多引脚电传送和电力传输传送。例如,各向异性材料致使在仅一个方向上发生导电,这意味着导电路径可以在不相互干扰的情况下完全独立地操作。这实现了多个导电通道,其使得使用各向异性导电聚合物606和插座PCB 612的圆形结构来容易地将多个数据线或电源线相互隔离。
另外,各向异性导电聚合物606是防水的,其防止连接器402被水损坏,诸如当在雨中被穿戴时或者当被洗涤时。
可用各种不同的方式来实施连接器402。在一个或多个实施方式中,作为使用各向异性导电聚合物606的替代,连接器插头404可包括柔顺聚氨酯聚合物以提供与被实施在连接器插座406处的金属焊盘的顺从性以实现电磁连接。在另一实施方式中,连接器插头404和连接器插座406每个可包括磁耦合线圈,其可以被对准以提供交互式物体104与外部电子模块206之间的电力和数据传送。

计算系统700还包括通信接口708,其可以被实施为串行和/或并行接口、无线接口、任何类型网络接口、调制解调器中的任何一个或多个以及作为任何其它类型的通信接口。通信接口708提供计算系统700与其它电子、计算以及通信设备用来与计算系统700通信数据的通信网络之间的连接和/或通信链路。
计算系统700包括一个或多个处理器710(例如,处理器、控制器等中的任何一个),其处理各种计算机可执行指令以控制计算系统700的操作并实现用于交互式织物或者可以在其中体现的技术。替选地或另外,可以用与一般地在712处所识别的处理和控制电路相结合地实现的硬件、固件或固定逻辑电路中的任何一个或组合来实现计算系统700。虽然未示出,但计算系统700可以包括将设备内的各种组件耦合的系统总线或数据传输系统。系统总线可以包括不同总线结构中的任何一个或组合,诸如存储器总线或存储器控制器、外围总线、通用串行总线和/或利用各种总线架构中的任何一个的处理器或本地总线。
计算系统700还包括计算机可读介质714,诸如实现持久性和/或非临时数据存储(即,与仅仅信号传送相反)的一个或多个存储器设备,其示例包括随机存取储器(RAM)、非易失性存储器(例如,只读存储器(ROM)、闪存、EPROM、EEPROM等中的任何一个或多个)以及磁盘存储设备。可将磁盘存储设备实施为任何类型的磁或光学存储设备,诸如硬盘驱动器、可记录和/或可重写压缩磁盘(CD)、任何类型的数字多功能磁盘(DVD)等。计算系统700还可以包括大容量存储介质设备716。
计算机可读介质714提供了用以存储设备数据704以及各种设备应用718和与计算系统700的操作方面有关的任何其它类型的信息和/或数据的数据存储机制。例如,可以利用计算机可读介质714将操作系统720保持为计算机应用,并且在处理器710上执行。设备应用718可包括设备管理器,诸如任何形式的控制应用、软件应用、信号处理和控制模块、在特定设备本地的代码、用于特定设备的硬件抽象层等。设备应用718还包括用以实现具有多个电子模块的交互式物体的任何系统组件、引擎或管理器。
