Abstract

A system and method for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus includes an image device, the image device transmitting an image to a liquid crystal display (LCD) via a signal transmission; a central processing unit (CPU), the CPU being built in the image device and installed with a software driver program, the software driver program enabling the CPU to magnify and display the image on the LCD via the signal transmission; and a keyboard, the keyboard being connected with the CPU for controlling the software driver program installed in the CPU, the cursor of the keyboard being displayed at a relative position of the image, the keyboard being adapted for direct operating on the image corresponding to the operation of the image device. The present invention is convenient in use, quick and easy for operation, and convenient for portability.

Claims

1. A system for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus, comprising:

an image device, the image device transmitting an image to a liquid crystal display (LCD) via a signal transmission;

a central processing unit (CPU), the CPU being built in the image device and installed with a software driver program, the software driver program enabling the CPU to magnify and display the image on the LCD via the signal transmission; and

a keyboard, the keyboard being connected with the CPU for controlling the software driver program installed in the CPU, the cursor of the keyboard being displayed at a relative position of the image, the keyboard being adapted for direct operating on the image corresponding to the operation of the image device.

2. The system for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein the image device is one of a wireless cell phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA) and a game machine which have a screen to display.

3. The system for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein the keyboard is connected with a mouse, the cursor of the mouse being displayed at the relative position of the image simultaneously, the mouse being adapted for direct operating on the image corresponding to the operation of the image device.

4. The system for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein the signal transmission is transmitted via a Bluetooth wireless transmission device or a universal serial bus (USB) signal transmission line, the Bluetooth wireless transmission device or the USB signal transmission line enabling the image device, the keyboard and the mouse to constitute a signal transmission mode.

5. The system for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus as claimed in claim 2, wherein the keyboard or the mouse is used to click on the image direct for making or answering a phone call of the wireless cell phone through an earphone connected with the keyboard or a speaker and a microphone provided on the keyboard.

6. A system for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus, comprising:

an image device, the image device being connected with a mini projector via a signal transmission for transmitting an image to a projector screen;

a central processing unit (CPU), the CPU being built in the image device and installed with a software driver program, the software driver program enabling the CPU to magnify and display the image on the projector screen of the mini projector via the signal transmission; and

a keyboard, the keyboard being connected with the CPU for controlling the software driver program installed in the CPU, the cursor of the keyboard being displayed at a relative position of the image, the keyboard being adapted for direct operating on the image corresponding to the operation of the image device.

7. The system for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus as claimed in claim 6, wherein the keyboard is connected with a mouse, the cursor of the mouse being displayed at the relative position of the image simultaneously, the mouse being adapted for direct operating on the image corresponding to the operation of the image device.

8. The system for transferring the operation of an image device o an external apparatus as claimed in claim 6, wherein the image device is one of a wireless cell phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA) and a game machine which have a screen to display.

9. The system for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus as claimed in claim 6, wherein the signal transmission is transmitted via a Bluetooth wireless transmission device or a universal serial bus (USB) signal transmission line, the Bluetooth wireless transmission device or the USB signal transmission line enabling the image device, the keyboard and the mouse to constitute a signal transmission mode.

10. A method for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus, comprising the steps of:

(a) installing a software driver program in a central processing unit (CPU) of an image device;

(b) using a universal serial bus (USB) signal transmission line to connect the CPU to a liquid crystal display (LCD);

(c) using a keyboard or a mouse to connect with the CPU of the image device via the USB signal transmission line, or using a Bluetooth wireless transmission device to connect with the CPU of the image device;

(d) magnifying and displaying an image of the image device on the LCD via the CPU connected with the USB signal transmission line; and

(e) displaying the cursor of the keyboard or the mouse at a relative position of the image for adding, amending, or saving the image direct.

11. The method for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus as claimed in claim 10, wherein the keyboard is connected with the mouse, the cursor of the mouse being displayed at the relative position of the image simultaneously, the mouse being adapted for direct operating on the image corresponding to the operation of the image device.

12. The method for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus as claimed in claim 10, wherein the image device is one of a wireless cell phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA) and a game machine which have a screen to display.

13. A method for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus, comprising the steps of:

(a) installing a software driver program in a central processing unit (CPU) of an image device;

(b) using a universal serial bus (USB) signal transmission line to connect the CPU to a mini projector;

(c) using a keyboard or a mouse to connect with the CPU of the image device via the USB signal transmission line, or using a Bluetooth wireless transmission device to connect with the CPU of the image device;

(d) magnifying and displaying an image of the image device on a projector screen via the CPU connected with the USB signal transmission line; and

(e) displaying the cursor of the keyboard or the mouse at a relative position of the image for adding, amending, or saving the image direct.

14. The method for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus as claimed in claim 13, wherein the keyboard is connected with the mouse, the cursor of the mouse being displayed at the relative position of the image simultaneously, the mouse being adapted for direct operating on the image corresponding to the operation of the image device.

15. The method for transferring the operation of an image device to an external apparatus as claimed in claim 13, wherein the image device is one of a wireless cell phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA) and a game machine which have a screen to display.
