Creative design systems and methods
First Claim
1. A creative design system comprising:
- a high resolution display;
an interactive stylus that includes a transmitter at a tip of the interactive stylus that transmits an encoded signal associated with the interactive stylus;
a plurality of sensors that track movement of the interactive stylus over the high resolution display by capturing and decoding the transmitted encoded signal as the stylus moves over the high resolution display;
a calibration component configured to employ data provided from the plurality of sensors to determine and calibrate a distance between the transmitter and a surface of a plurality of different cell regions of the high resolution display to determine if the transmitter is within a threshold distance from a cell region of the plurality of different cell regions of the high resolution display, wherein the distance is measured on an axis normal to the surface of the high resolution display and the cell region of the plurality of different cell regions; and
a creative design controller configured to display sketches of context in response to the tracking of the movement of the interactive stylus over the high resolution display.

Abstract
Creative design systems and methods are disclosed. In one embodiment, a creative design system is provided. The creative design system comprises a high resolution display, an interactive stylus that includes a transmitter at a tip of the interactive stylus that transmits an encoded signal associated with the interactive stylus and a plurality of sensors that track movement of the interactive stylus over the high resolution display by capturing and decoding the transmitted encoded signal as the stylus moves over the high resolution display. A creative design controller is configured to display sketches of context in response to the tracking of the movement of the interactive stylus over the high resolution display.

14. A creative design system comprising:
-
a high resolution display; an interactive stylus that includes an infrared transmitter located at its tip that generates infrared light; an infrared camera located in each corner of the high resolution display that captures images to track movement of the infrared light over the high resolution display; and a creative design controller configured to display preloaded detailed text and figures and generate instructions to display sketches of context in response to movement of the infrared light over the high resolution display based on a determined sub-pixel estimate of a bright spot from the infrared light in the captured images based on the pixel resolution of the infrared camera, wherein the creative design controller comprises a jitter suppressor that tracks the intersection point locations from prior frames of two or more of the cameras and estimates the location of a new intersection point based on weighted averages of the intersection point locations from prior frames and intersections point locations of new frames. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)

18. A method for providing creative design, the method comprising:
-
capturing images of a transmitter of an interactive stylus with a plurality of cameras as it is moved over a high resolution display; analyzing the captured images and employing triangulation to determine a location of the transmitter of the interactive stylus; generating instructions to display sketches of content in response to the determined movement of the transmitter of the interactive stylus over the high resolution display; and tracking camera intersection point locations from prior frames of two or more of the cameras and estimating the location of a new intersection point based on weighted averages of the intersection points locations from prior frames and intersections point locations of new frames in response to a camera of the plurality of cameras failing to capture an image of the transmitter of the interactive stylus. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
