Method for displaying flipping pages via electromechanical information browsing device
First Claim
1. A method for displaying flipping pages of an electronic book presented on a display, comprising steps of:
- displaying a stationary left page and a variable left-hand book thickness on a book left-side;
displaying a stationary right page and a variable right hand book thickness on a book right-side;
displaying at least two pages simultaneously moving across from at least one of the book right-side to the book left-side and from the book left-side to the book right-side; and
displaying a speed of movement through the electronic book, wherein a number of the at least two pages is proportional to a selectable flipping speed, and the speed of movement through the electronic book is proportional to the selectable flipping speed.

Abstract
A method for displaying flipping pages of an electronic book via an electromechanical information browsing device that controls page flipping actions of information displayed as an e-book on a display device. The browsing device includes a controller that provides tactile feedback so as to lessen the user-interface differences between conventional books and e-books. Sensors and control mechanisms in the controller generate a series of electrical signals that are interpreted by the computer that displays the e-book to control various browsing operations, such as flipping pages, controlling a rate of page flipping, jumping to pre-set locations in the e-book, etc.
