Patent attributes
A remote interface for smart electronic hand-held devices is provided. The remote interface includes a touchpad having a sensitive surface for detecting and/or registering fingertip touch, tap, click, and gesture movements, a control module for wirelessly transmitting detected fingertip touch, tap, click, and gesture movements and generating a cursor on the hand-held device that tracks the detected fingertip touch, tap, click, and gesture movements, and a band for removably attaching the touchpad to a surface. The touchpad is rotatably coupled to a body of the remote interface and includes a bezel for rotating the touchpad about the body. An indicator indicates the directionality of the touchpad so as to provide visualization of the orientation and directionality of the touchpad relative to the graphic user interface of the hand-held device.
