Definitions

  • aspects of the invention generally relate to software design touchscreen devices or computers with functions for multiple users working together at the same time.
  • touchscreen software and devices have been developed to enhance usability and to make computers more versatile throughout the evolution of the field of computer science. Touchscreen software and devices changes the experience of the users when interacting with computers. Many software and application becomes easier to use. Touchscreen also open up many new capabilities that the ordinary keyboard and mouse cannot perform.
  • touchscreen devices examples include the iPhone and tablet.
  • the touchscreen software has developed rapidly. Touchscreen used to work with only a stylus pen and only one point could be touch at one time.
  • touchscreen software is very fluid and response very well with the movement of the fingers and many points can be touch at the same time.
  • Numerous touchscreen devices and software allow more than one users to use the device at the same time.
  • One example would be the iPad and the Tap Tap Revolution Game.
  • these devices and software are usually not designed for multiusers to use the device at the same time and many of the devices have sizes that are too small.
  • the Sandbox addresses these issues by being software that utilize large touchscreen interface designed to enable many users to use the touchscreen at once with ease.
  • the software embedded is very important because it is designed for many users to use at the same time. All of the tools provided suits a variety of environments and many groups of people. All of the tools can be customize and many users can use different tools or even the same tools all at once.
  • One aspect of the invention is to optimize the multiuser touch screen experience.
  • the software allows more than one person to work together on the touchscreen devices at the same time.
  • Each user has their workspace and is able to interact together with another person work all of the work done in a workspace is a project.
  • Another aspect of the invention is the specialized user tools in which every user can simply draw a geometric shape to pull out the specialized user tools anytime and each user can use any tools individually at the same time.
  • the tools are very flexible and changes or adjustments to any creation done by the tools are always available.
  • Yet another aspect of the invention is the unbounded and indefinite workspace.
  • the zooming function enables the workspace to expand with no bound or limits.
  • the panning function enables each user to move the workspace being displayed at the screen.
  • FIG. 1 is a structure of the architecture of the touchscreen technology system.
  • FIG. 2 is a scenario of multiple users working together.
  • FIG. 3 is a structure of the gesture analysis.
  • FIG. 4 is a scenario of many individualized user tools on a workspace.
  • FIG. 5 is a scenario of the unbounded workspaces using.
  • FIG. 6 is a scenario of the object creating and changing.
  • This invention is created to help multiple users collaborate better in working together on computers. For multiple users to work together well on a touchscreen device, not only does the hardware which is the computer with a touchscreen need to be robust, but the software for multiusers need to be well created as well to work cooperatively between both the hardware and the software.
  • Sandbox is a combination of both a robust computer with touchscreen for multiusers and the software that has been created for multiple users to collaborate better. Functions and tools of Sandbox are designed to help multiple users share and work together on the same project while having individual workspace.
  • the Gesture Analysis enables multiple users to use different tools at the same time. For example, one user could draw a line while another user could be creating a shape at the same time.
  • the specialized user tools are drawn-pulled out by drawing a geometric shape. The tools enable many features and can be pulled out as many times as possible for each user.
  • the specialized user tools are movable.
  • the unbounded and indefinite workspace provides an unlimited area for maximum creativity. The area can be moved around with the panning tools and the zooming function can zoom in and out of an area.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a diagram of the architecture of the touchscreen technology system.
  • the sensor detects the location of the point being touched on the touchscreen accurately.
  • the ID helps the computer to recognize each touch individually.
  • the driver calibrates the point to make an estimation of the point location accurately and send that point to Sandbox computer.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a Sandbox being used by multiple users at the same time.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates a diagram of how each individual touch point is being analyzed by the gesture analysis. The touch point then is interpreted into different commands.
  • FIG 4 explains the functions of the tools usage on the workspace.
  • the individualized user tools are called out by drawing a geometric shape anywhere on the workspace. Each user can freely select and use any tool on the individualized user tools without interfering with another individualized user tools.
  • Each attribute of the tool of the individualized user tools can be adjusted as desire. For example, the pen tool can be used with different color attribute by different users at the same time.
  • the tool of one individualized user tools can also be used on the creation created by another person individualized user tools.
  • the eraser tool of one individualized user tools can be used to erase lines drawn by another individualized user tools.
  • FIG 4 illustrates the scenarios of the workspace software being in use.
  • One feature of the software is to show many workspaces at the same time. Another feature is to the usage of the workspace by multiple users at the same time.
  • the workspace is unbounded and indefinite and goes beyond the screen.
  • the zooming tool and the panning tool can be used to move around what of the unbounded and indefinite workspace is shown on the screen.
  • FIG 5 illustrates the usage of the object functions on workspace.
  • the first function is to open different type of files at the same time and to select a part or the full file to be used as an object on the workspace in an unlimited number of times.
  • Objects can be created by the individualized user tools of each user and the attribute of each object including the shape, size, and color can be change anytime.
