Abstract

An interactive digital image display has a screen, an image processor, a coordinate detecting unit coupled to the image processor, an image driving unit coupled to the image processor, a memory coupled to the image processor, and an interface for acquiring images. When user moves the display, the coordinate detecting unit generates a signal to the image processor, and the image displayed on the display will be adjusted according to the displacement of the display

Claims

1. An interactive digital image display, comprising:

a screen;

an image processor;

a coordinate detecting unit coupled to the image processor;

an image driving unit coupled to the image processor and the display;

a memory coupled to the image processor; and

an interface coupled to the image processor for acquiring images;

wherein upon movement of the display, the coordinate detecting unit generates a signal to the image processor and an image displayed on the screen will be adjusted according to an amount of the displacement experienced by the display.

2. The interactive digital image display of claim 1, wherein the coordinate detecting image unit can be selected from the group consisting of an accelerator, a gyroscope, and a MEMS (micro electro-mechanical systems) device.

3. The interactive digital image display of claim 1, wherein the interface is a card reading interface for reading images from a memory card.

4. The interactive digital image display of claim 1, wherein the interface is a connecting port for coupling to a computer or a memory storing device.

5. The interactive digital image display of claim 1, wherein the interactive digital image display further includes a coordinate restoring unit coupled to the image processor.

6. The interactive digital image display of claim 5, wherein the coordinate restoring unit is a switch.

7. A method for displaying an image on a display, the method comprising:

displaying an image on the display at a reference point;

detecting an amount of a displacement of the display away from the reference point; and

adjusting the image on the display in a manner that is proportional to the amount of the displacement.
