Terminal with projection display
View Patent ↗A mobile data and/or communication terminal is provided which includes an optical system for the generation of a projected display as well as parts for stabilizing the display when the terminal is moved.
1. A terminal, comprising:
an optical apparatus for generating a projected display;
at least one sensor that detects physical movement of the terminal; and
a processor that processes an output from the sensor to determine a position of the terminal resulting from the physical movement, wherein the processor compensates the optical apparatus to stabilize the displacement of the projected display based on the determined position.
2. The terminal as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the terminal is one of a mobile data terminal and a communication terminal.
3. The terminal as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor is activated via a switch on the terminal.
4. The terminal as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising an apparatus for emitting a light beam as a pointing agent in the projected display.
5. The terminal as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a camera for recording at least segments of the projected display.
6. A method for stabilizing a projection from a terminal, comprising the steps of:
generating a projected display through an optical apparatus in the terminal;
detecting physical movement of the terminal; and
processing the detected physical movement to determine a position of the terminal and compensating the optical apparatus to stabilize the displacement of the projected display, based on the determined position.
7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the terminal is one of a mobile data terminal and a communication terminal.
8. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the steps of processing the detected physical movement and compensating the optical apparatus are performed after receiving an input from a switch on the terminal.
9. The method according to claim 6 , further comprising the step of emitting a light beam as a pointing agent in the projected display.
10. The method according to claim 6 , further comprising the step of recording at least segments of the projected display via a camera located on the terminal.
