Patent Number Title Of Patent Date Issued
5665942 Optical-scanning system employing laser and laser safety control September 9, 1997
An optical-scanning system including a laser, a multi-faceted, rotational scanning mirror, and system-monitoring laser safety structure operatively and informationally connected respectively to the laser and to the mirror and the drive motor for the mirror for altering the effective powe
5623129 Code-based, electromagnetic-field-responsive graphic data-acquisition system April 22, 1997
An electromagnetic-field-responsive (preferably optical), code-based, graphic data-acquisition system for tracking the operational status of a mobile write-effective component (stylus, eraser, etc.) in relation to a defined writing-surface area. The preferred embodiment features an activ
5585605 Optical-scanning system employing laser and laser safety control December 17, 1996
An optical-scanning system including a laser, a multi-faceted, rotational scanning mirror, and system-monitoring laser safety structure operatively and informationally connected respectively to the laser and to the mirror and the drive motor for the mirror for altering the effective powe
5583323 Calibration of graphic data-acquisition tracking system December 10, 1996
A system and method for calibrating and monitoring the height of an electromagnetic radiation expanse above a writing surface is described. An electromagnetic-radiation-generating structure is disposed adjacent produce an expanse of radiation in a substantially planar zone near the w
5434370 Marking system with pen-up/pen-down tracking July 18, 1995
A system and method for detecting movement of an object along an axis normal to a planar surface is described. The invention is applied to a graphic data-acquisition system in which a digitized record is produced according to the X, Y and Z location of a writing implement relative to a
5248856 Code-based, electromagnetic-field-responsive graphic data-acquisition system September 28, 1993
An electromagnetic-field-responsive (preferably optical), code-based, graphic data-acquisition system for tracking the operational status of a mobile write-effective component (stylus, eraser, etc.) in relation to a defined writing-surface area. The preferred embodiment features an activ
4777329 Graphic input system October 11, 1988
A graphic input system determining position coordinate data of a mobile element on a writing surface by measuring the transit times of ultrasonic signals and an electromagnetic signal. The mobile element may comprise either a writing instrument or an eraser. The electromagnetic signal
