The present invention provides a program code implemented computer screen security system. A virtual, real-time generated, screen mask leaves only a localized cursor area visible while hiding the remainder of the screen from public view. The cursor area automatically tracks cursor movement. In the preferred embodiment, the security program is user selectable and adjustable.

The invention relates to a refrigerating-lubricating cursor ring that can be used in ring twisting machines, continuous ring spinning machines and double twisting machines. Said ring serves as a guide for a cursor (3) and comprises a cylindrical, hollow ring (1) made of a porous material, said ring being provided with chamber (6) into which an air-lubricant/refrigerant mixture is injected by pressure, thereby creating an air cushion between the ring (1) and the cursor (3) that prevents mutual fr...

A novel cursor construction for a digitizer tablet, wherein the cursor coil is wound on a one-sided bobbin which is then seated in a blind hole of a transparent base, with a crosshair molded into the base and aligned with the coil.

A wireless cursor control device for use with a computer system includes a main body, a wireless signal receiver, a storing portion and a resilient pad member. The main body generates a wireless signal to control a cursor of the computer system. The wireless signal receiver is swappable to be electrically connected to the computer system for receiving the wireless signal. The storing portion is disposed in the main body for accommodating the wireless signal receiver. The resilient pad member is ...

The invention relates to a position device which rides over a surface for controlling a cursor over a visual display. The device generates signals indicative of its position to cause the cursor to be displayed on the display at a corresponding position. The device includes a control mechanism that comprises a transport sphere coupled with rotatable shafts which represent the position of the device in terms of Cartesian coordinates. The sphere is in contact with the surface over which the device ...

A system for controlling a cursor is provided. The system includes a monitored system that generates user interface data and mouse position data, such as would be provided in a monitor window. A remote monitoring system receives the user interface data and mouse control data, such as for controlling the location of a cursor in a local window and a monitor window. A mouse synchronization system receives the user interface data and the mouse control data and generates mouse calibration data based ...

A method for actuating a button on a graphical user interface (GUI) is disclosed. The method includes navigating a graphical cursor corresponding to an input device onto the button, activating a fence around a border of the button if the navigation occurs via a pre-defined portion of the border and navigating the graphical cursor away from the button via a pre-defined area of the button.

A serial data cursor for extracting content from an analog waveform representing a serial digital data stream has a horizontal length equal to a "word-time" as determined by parameters of a protocol for the serial digital data stream and a clock recovered from the serial digital data stream. The serial data cursor delimits a portion of the analog waveform, which is then decoded into human readable form, such as binary, octal, hexadecimal, alpha-numeric or the like. A trigger may be generated fro...

A method for displaying an image which can include a text or graphic message on a display driven by an electronic device that includes a graphical user interface, including the steps of storing the image at an electronic device, displaying the image in relation to a cursor icon of the graphical user interface (GUI), and moving the image as the cursor icon moves in response to user commanded movement of the cursor icon so that the image stays in relation to the cursor icon. A system and method fo...

The present invention relates to the processing of cursor information for the display of a cursor on a display medium. Positional information for the cursor is provided by means of an input device which generates signals that are received by a control element which converts this information into cursor video signals to provide the cursor display. The cursor control element processes the vertical and horizontal position coordinate information such that the cursor displayed is independent of any c...
