First Claim
Patent Images
1. A user interface assembly comprising:
- a first touch sensitive pad that senses a position of a first object;
a second touch sensitive pad that senses a position of a second object, the second touch sensitive pad spaced apart from the first touch pad; and
a controller that synchronizes inputs from each of the first and second touch sensitive pads relative to each other on a common mapped device.

Abstract
A user interface assembly includes a first touch sensitive pad and a second touch sensitive pad spaced apart from each other that both sense a position of corresponding objects on each touch sensitive pad and synchronizes those positions into an output that relates the sensed positions to corresponding positions on a mapped device.

15. A method of synchronizing a plurality of touch sensitive pads comprising:
-
sensing a first position of a first object on a first touch sensitive pad; sensing a second position of a second object on a second touch sensitive pad spaced apart from the first touch sensitive pad; and generating an output indicative of the first object and the second object that corresponds to locations on a mapped device responsive to receiving a first input indicative of the sensed first position of the first object on the first touch sensitive pad and a second input indicative of the sensed second position of the second object on the second touch sensitive pad. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
