Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to mobile electronic devices including at least one transparent display screen for comparing and accurately determining the color of a predetermined object for color and texture application. Moreover, the present disclosure provides color analysis and control using an electronic mobile device transparent display screen, for a wide variety of applications, including, but not limited to color, shade and coating defect identification applications, as well as augmented reality applications.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In the use of transparent display screens on mobile electronic device there is the desire to compare colors, shades, textures and other image parameters. The transparent display screen may by single display layered or multiple display layered, bonded or formed monolithic. The particular electronic mobile device may have single or multiple transparent display screen with capability to have one layer become non-transparent/opaque. In using a transparent display layer, the user may identify, compare shades of color while looking through part of transparent display on a mobile device. The advantage of comparison through transparent display screen includes the property that since the color is shown on the part of transparent display screen, where compared color directly edge up to compared color or shades of color using same light source seen though transparent display screen.

Individual perception of subject with color that is being compared will be more similar due to non camera factors which will affect the results; which also include translucent shades like tinted beverage/fluid seen though glass. Example: looking through glass cup with beverage like dark beer, utilizing comparison shade guide seen through transparent display screen has advantage due to same background/surrounding/environment/lighting/objects seen behind the glass cup and transparent display will be same for more accuracy. Non-transparent display screen has a color “break” due to edge of screen, to include curve edge (which has slight lighting difference at the edges) and viewed camera limits (RGB).

On multiple transparent displays a layered screen, utilizing a transparent display screen to display coating defects in parallax image over the color, for more realistic image comparison. For comparing paint coatings, color identification is not only factor. Other factors include defects associated with coating systems (texture defects on the color), such as alligatoring, bleeding, blistering, checking, fish eyes, etc., which can be better visually shown though transparent display screen in form of overlay as viewed though transparent display screen.

There is the desire to perceive and control these image aspects with a transparent display screen on an electronic mobile device. With such an ability, color, shade and coating defect identification and other variations could be appreciated. Such variations and their control could have application in a variety of scenarios, including augmented reality scenarios.

However, a touch screen 112 displays visual output from the portable device 100, whereas touch sensitive tablets do not provide visual output.

A touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of the touch screen 112 may be as described in the following applications: (1) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/381,313, “Multipoint Touch Surface Controller,” filed May 2, 2006; (2) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/840,862, “Multipoint Touchscreen,” filed May 6, 2004; (3) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/903,964, “Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices,” filed Jul. 30, 2004; (4) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/048,264, “Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices,” filed Jan. 31, 2005; (5) U.S. patent application Ser.

No. 11/367,749, “Multi-Functional Hand-Held Device,” filed Mar. 3, 2006. All of these applications are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.

The touch screen 112 may have a resolution in excess of 100 dpi. In an exemplary embodiment, the touch screen has a resolution of approximately 160 dpi. The user may make contact with the touch screen 112 using any suitable object or appendage, such as a stylus, a finger, and so forth. In some embodiments, the user interface is designed to work primarily with finger-based contacts and gestures, which are much less precise than stylus-based input due to the larger area of contact of a finger on the touch screen. In some embodiments, the device translates the rough finger-based input into a precise pointer/cursor position or command for performing the actions desired by the user.

In some embodiments, in addition to the touch screen, the device 100 may include a touchpad (not shown) for activating or deactivating particular functions. In some embodiments, the touchpad is a touch-sensitive area of the device that, unlike the touch screen, does not display visual output. The touchpad may be a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from the touch screen 112 or an extension of the touch-sensitive surface formed by the touch screen.

The device 100 also includes a power system 162 for powering the various components. The power system 162 may include a power management system, one or more power sources (e.g., battery, alternating current (AC)), a recharging system, a power failure detection circuit, a power converter or inverter, a power status indicator (e.g., a light-emitting diode (LED)) and any other components associated with the generation, management and distribution of power in portable devices.

The optical sensor 164 may include charge-coupled device (CCD) or complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistors. The optical sensor 164 receives light from the environment, projected through one or more lens, and converts the light to data representing an image. In conjunction with an imaging module 143 (also called a camera module), the optical sensor 164 may capture still images or video. In some embodiments, an optical sensor is located on the back of the device 100, opposite the touch screen display 112 on the front of the device, so that the touch screen display may be used as a viewfinder for either still and/or video image acquisition.

In some embodiments, an optical sensor is located on the front of the device so that the user's image may be obtained for videoconferencing while the user views the other video conference participants on the touch screen display. In some embodiments, the position of the optical sensor 164 can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and the sensor in the device housing) so that a single optical sensor 164 may be used along with the touch screen display for both video conferencing and still and/or video image acquisition.

The device 100 may also include one or more proximity sensors 166. FIGS. 4A and 4B show a proximity sensor 166 coupled to the peripherals interface 118. Alternately, the proximity sensor 166 may be coupled to an input controller 160 in the I/O subsystem 106. The proximity sensor 166 may perform as described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/241,839, “Proximity Detector In Handheld Device,” filed Sep. 30, 2005; Ser. No. 11/240,788, “Proximity Detector In Handheld Device,” filed Sep. 30, 2005; Ser. No. 11/620,702, “Using Ambient Light Sensor To Augment Proximity Sensor Output”; Ser. No. 11/586,862, “Automated Response To And Sensing Of User Activity In Portable Devices,” filed Oct. 24, 2006; and Ser. No. 11/638,251, “Methods And Systems For Automatic Configuration Of Peripherals,” which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. In some embodiments, the proximity sensor turns off and disables the touch screen 112 when the multifunction device is placed near the user's ear (e.g., when the user is making a phone call). In some embodiments, the proximity sensor keeps the screen off when the device is in the user's pocket, purse, or other dark area to prevent unnecessary battery drainage when the device is a locked state.

The device 100 may also include one or more accelerometers 168. FIGS. 1A and 1B show an accelerometer 168 coupled to the peripherals interface 118. Alternately, the accelerometer 168 may be coupled to an input controller 160 in the I/O subsystem 106. The accelerometer 168 may perform as described in U.S. Patent Publication No. 20050190059, “Acceleration-based Theft Detection System for Portable Electronic Devices,” and U.S. Patent Publication No. 20060017692, “Methods And Apparatuses For Operating A Portable Device Based On An Accelerometer,” both of which are which are incorporated by reference in their entirety.
