Augmented I/O for limited form factor user-interfaces
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising;
determining that a defined change to a state of an interface display has occurred that relates to a determination of a number of graphical elements, displayed by the interface display, exceeding a threshold number; and
in response to the defined change being determined to have occurred, augmenting an output of the interface display comprising updating a portion of the output of the interface display as a function of a position of a selector object interacting with the interface display with respect to a surface associated with the interface display.

Abstract
The claimed subject matter relates to an architecture that can enhance and/or simplify tactile-based I/O transactions in connection with a user-interface (UI) of limited form factor. In particular, the architecture can monitor a position of a selector object such as an operator'"'"'s finger relative to a UI display as the selector object hovers or moves above the UI display. Based upon this position, an analogous coordinate in the UI display can be determined, and a portion of the UI display substantially centered at the coordinate can be modified. As one example, the UI display can be modified to increase the magnification scale (e.g., a virtual magnifying glass) of the portion of the display indicated by the selector object.

10. A method, comprising:
-
identifying, by a system comprising a processor, a defined change to a state of an interface display comprising determining that a number of graphical elements being displayed by the interface display exceeds a threshold number; and in response to the defined change being identified, modifying, by the system, the state of the interface display comprising updating a portion of an output of the interface display as a function of a position of a selector object interacting with the interface display with respect to a surface associated with the interface display. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computer-readable storage device comprising executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a system comprising a processor to perform operations, comprising:
-
identifying a defined change to a state of a display, wherein the defined change is based on a determination of a number of graphical elements being displayed by the display satisfying a threshold condition; and updating a portion of an output of the display as a function of a position of a selector object interacting with the display with respect to a surface associated with the display, in response to the defined change being identified. - View Dependent Claims (20)
