Computing system with an interactive display
First Claim
1. A computing system comprising:
- a processor;
a sole display for the computing system;
said display comprising a display housing and a removable induced field activated display sheet;
said display housing being so constructed and arranged to receive said removable induced field activated display sheet;
said induced field activated display sheet having a plurality of image producing elements responsive to an induced field;
said induced field activated display sheet being flexible;
said display housing having a plurality of induced field creating means each of which is arranged to activate at least a respective one of the image producing elements of the induced field activated display sheet when located in said display housing;
means operably connected to said processor and said display housing for selectively activating said plurality of induced field creating means to thereby selectively activate the image producing elements of said induced field activated display sheet when located in said display housing in order to create different image on said same induced field activated display sheet in response to different images generated by said processor; and
said induced field activated display sheet being so constructed and arranged to retain its current image when removed from said display housing.

Abstract
An interactive display is disclosed which comprises a housing to receive an induced field activated display sheet which has a plurality of image producing elements responsive to an induced field. The housing has a transparent cover panel and a base panel. The cover panel and the base panel of the display housing comprise a plurality of means for creating a plurality of induced fields for selectively activating the image producing elements of the induced field activated display sheet. By selectively activating the induced field means, selective image producing elements of the induced field activated display sheet will be activated to produce a desired image on the induced field activated display sheet thereby creating a display. If desired the induced field activated display sheet can be removed from the display housing to be used as a printed document.
