Moveable output device
First Claim
1. A display system, comprising:
- a processor;
a first display device having a first display surface and receiving display data from the processor;
a second display device having a display area smaller than the first display device and moveable over the surface of the first display device; and
a sensor in communication with the processor and communicating location data to the processor, the location data being representative of the relative location of the first display to the second display; and
a program running on the processor and providing display data to the first and second display devices, such that the display data provided to the second display device is based on the location data.

Abstract
A display system is disclosed. The display system includes a processor. The display system also includes a first display device having a first display surface and receiving display data from the processor. The display system also includes a second displayed device having a display area smaller then the first display device and moveable over the surface of the first display device. The display system also includes a sensor in communication with the processor and communicating location data to the processor. The location data is representative of the relative location of the first display to the second display. Further still, the display system includes a program running on the processor and providing display data to the first and second display devices. The display data is provided to the second display device based on the location data.

20. A moveable output device configured for movement across a primary display surface, the primary display being in communication with a processing device, comprising:
-
a device housing supporting at least one of a visual display, an audio device, and a tactile feedback device, the device housing supporting a processor; and
a wireless communications device receiving output data from the processing device, the output data being based on location data from a location sensor sensing the relative location of the device housing and the primary display surface, the output device generating an output based on the output data;
wherein a user of the output device receives an enhanced output as compared with the primary display output. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
