Fast scrolling through image sets containing markers
First Claim
1. A system for reviewing a plurality of images, at least one image including a marker, the system comprising:
- a display for displaying the plurality of images sequentially;
a cursor control device for controlling a speed of the sequentially displayed images, the cursor control device including a feedback mechanism; and
a processor for receiving a direction control signal from the cursor control device and presenting the sequence of images to the display in the determined direction, and for determining if any image in the sequence has a marker, wherein if a marker is detected, the processor outputs a feedback signal to the feedback mechanism of the cursor control device to indicate to a user to review the image.

Abstract
A system for reviewing a plurality of images, at least one image including a marker, is provided. The system includes a display for displaying the plurality of images sequentially; a cursor control device for controlling a speed of the sequentially displayed images, the cursor control device including a feedback mechanism; and a processor for receiving a direction control signal from the cursor control device and presenting the sequence of images to the display in the determined direction, and for determining if any image in the sequence has a marker, wherein if a marker is detected, the processor outputs a feedback signal to the feedback mechanism of the cursor control device to indicate to a user to review the image. Similarly, a method for reviewing a plurality of images at high speed is also provided.

10. A method for reviewing a plurality of images at high speed, the method comprising the steps of:
-
marking at least one of the plurality of images having an object of interest;
displaying at least one image of the plurality of images;
applying a first force to a cursor control device to sequentially display the plurality of images;
detecting an image having an object of interest;
applying a feedback force to the cursor control; and
removing the first force from the cursor control and stopping the sequence at the marker image. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A program storage device readable by a machine, tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform the method steps for reviewing a plurality of images at high speed, the method steps comprising:
-
marking at least one of the plurality of images having an object of interest;
displaying at least one image of the plurality of images;
applying a first force to a cursor control device to sequentially display the plurality of images;
detecting an image having an object of interest;
applying a feedback force to the cursor control; and
removing the first force from the cursor control and stopping the sequence at the marker image.
