Handy-Computer-MausMobile Computer Mouse BeschreibungDescription Stand der Technik:State of the art:

Personen, die mit Computern (insbesondere Laptops, Notebooks aber auch PCs etc.) arbeiten, benötigen zum Bewegen des Mauszeigers auf dem Bildschirm entweder eine zusätzliche Maus-Hardware, die über entsprechende Schnittstellen (seriell, USB, Infrarot, Funk etc.) mit dem Computer verbunden werden oder aber müssen sehr komplizierte und/oder Finger-ungewohnte integrierte Systeme nutzen (hier: Touchpad, Scrollball etc.).People who work with computers (especially laptops, notebooks but also PCs etc.) need either additional mouse hardware to move the mouse pointer on the screen, which is connected to the computer via appropriate interfaces (serial, USB, infrared, radio etc.) or they have to use very complicated and/or finger-unfamiliar integrated systems (here: touchpad, scroll ball etc.).

Im Falle der zusätzlichen Maus ist also immer mindestens ein zweites Gerät (speziell bei Laptops, Notebooks etc.) notwendig, um die Verwendung des Mauszeigers auf dem Bildschirm zu ermöglichen.In the case of an additional mouse, at least a second device (especially for laptops, notebooks, etc.) is always necessary to enable the use of the mouse pointer on the screen.

Hinzu kommt, dass mittlerweile mobile Telefone („Handys") ein weitverbreiteter Gebrauchsgegenstand sind und jeder diese auch gewöhnlich bei sich trägt.In addition, mobile phones ("cell phones") have become a widespread everyday item and everyone usually carries them with them.

Das mobile Telefon besitzt (normalerweise) eine Schnittstelle zum Computer (seriell, USB, Infrarot, Funk etc.), die aber nur für die modell- bzw. geräteabhängigen Funktionen des mobilen Telefons bzw. der mitgelieferten Software genutzt werdenThe mobile phone (normally) has an interface to the computer (serial, USB, infrared, radio, etc.), but this can only be used for the model- or device-dependent functions of the mobile phone or the software supplied

Zusammengefasst tragen Personen (speziell beim Einsatz von Laptops, Notebooks etc.) meist 3 Geräte (Computer, Maus und Mobiles Telefon) für 2 Funktionen (Computer- und Telefon-Benutzung) mit sich.In summary, people (especially when using laptops, notebooks, etc.) usually carry 3 devices (computer, mouse and mobile phone) for 2 functions (computer and telephone use).

Lösung:Solution:

Diese Erfindung kombiniert die bestehende Funktionalität von bekannten optischen oder manuellen Sensor-Computer-Mäusen mit den bestehenden Funktionalitäten eines mobilen Telefons und vereint sie zu einem Gerät, das beide Funktionen in einem erfüllt.This invention combines the existing functionality of known optical or manual sensor computer mice with the existing functionalities of a mobile phone and combines them into a device that performs both functions in one.

Dabei wird auf einer Seite des mobilen Telefons (idealerweise nicht auf der Tastatur-Seite) ein optischer oder manueller Computer-Maus-Sensor und dessen Technologie zur Bestimmung der Position der Computer-Maus integriert, der über die Funktionen des mobilen Telefons beliebig aktiviert bzw. deaktiviert werden kann.An optical or manual computer mouse sensor and its technology for determining the position of the computer mouse are integrated on one side of the mobile phone (ideally not on the keyboard side), which can be activated or deactivated as required using the functions of the mobile phone.

Die bereits integrierten Tasten des mobilen Telefons (Nummernblock, Menü-, Abheben- bzw. Auflegen-Taste etc.) fungieren dabei als Maus-Tasten und können bei Bedarf (mittels der Telefon-Software) zusätzlich frei mit diversen Maus-Funktionalitäten belegt werden.The already integrated keys of the mobile phone (number pad, menu, answer or hang up key, etc.) function as mouse keys and can, if required (using the telephone software), be freely assigned to various mouse functions.

-2--2-

Zusätzlich können sog. „Scroll-Räder" in das mobile Telefon integriert werden, die die bekannten Scroll-Funktionen existierender Computer-Mäuse unterstützen bzw. -ermöglichen.In addition, so-called "scroll wheels" can be integrated into the mobile phone, which support or enable the familiar scrolling functions of existing computer mice.

Die bereits integrierten Schnittstellen am mobilen Telefon (seriell, USB, Infrarot, Funk etc.) können nach wie vor zur Verbindung mit dem Computer uneingeschränkt genutzt werden, sind aber um die Funktionen der Maus erweitert und bieten damit die notwendige Grundlage für die Kommunikation mit dem Computer.The interfaces already integrated on the mobile phone (serial, USB, infrared, radio, etc.) can still be used without restrictions to connect to the computer, but have been expanded to include the functions of the mouse and thus provide the necessary basis for communication with the computer.

Durch Bewegung des mit dem Computer in Verbindung stehenden mobilen Telefons auf der jeweiligen Unterlage (hier: Schreibtischplatte, Maus-Pad etc.) wird die Position des Mauszeigers auf dem Computer-Bildschirm festgelegt.By moving the mobile phone connected to the computer on the respective surface (here: desk top, mouse pad, etc.), the position of the mouse pointer on the computer screen is determined.

Additive Klick- bzw. Scroll-Funktionen werden dabei durch Drücken der Tasten des mobilen Telefons emuliert.Additional click or scroll functions are emulated by pressing the buttons on the mobile phone.

Die Vorteile dieser Erfindung liegen klar auf der Hand:The advantages of this invention are obvious:

1. Beim Einsatz von Computern (insbesondere Laptops, Notebooks etc.) muss keine zusätzliche Maus-Hardware mehr mitgeführt werden.1. When using computers (especially laptops, notebooks, etc.) there is no longer a need to carry additional mouse hardware.

2. Das mobile Telefon fungiert als Maus und bietet bereits einen Großteil der Funktionalitäten bestehender Computer-Mäuse (Tasten, Schnittstellen etc.).2. The mobile phone acts as a mouse and already offers most of the functionality of existing computer mice (buttons, interfaces, etc.).

3. Das mobile Telefon kann während des Einsatzes als Computer-Maus über die jeweilige Schnittstelle (z. B. USB etc.) mit Strom versorgt und somit der Akku des Gerätes gleichzeitig aufgeladen werden.3. The mobile phone can be supplied with power via the respective interface (e.g. USB etc.) while being used as a computer mouse, thus charging the device's battery at the same time.

4. In Konferenzen kann das Klingeln von mobilen Telefonen sehr störend wirken. Schaltet man das mobile Telefon während der Benutzung als Computer-Maus auf den (je nach Modell verfügbaren) Vibrationsalarm, so spürt man einen Anruf sofort, da das mobile Telefon fortwährend in der Hand genutzt wird.4. The ringing of mobile phones can be very disruptive in conferences. If you switch the mobile phone to the vibration alarm (available depending on the model) while using it as a computer mouse, you will immediately feel a call because the mobile phone is constantly being used in your hand.

Zusätzliche Erweiterungs- und Einsatzmöglichkeiten:Additional expansion and application options:

Natürlich wäre es denkbar, die Funktion des Vibrationsalarms von mobilen Telefonen dahingehend zu nutzen, dass insbesondere bei Computer-Spielen dieser für ein „Gefühl" der dargestellten Spiel-Umgebung oder-Situation sorgt.
Hierbei liefert der Computer (bzw. das Computerspiel) über die Schnittstelle zum mobilen Telefon Befehle für den Einsatz des Vibrationseffektes (sog. „Feedback").
Of course, it would be conceivable to use the vibration alarm function of mobile phones to provide a "feeling" of the game environment or situation displayed, especially in computer games.
The computer (or the computer game) provides commands for the use of the vibration effect (so-called "feedback") via the interface to the mobile phone.

Beispiele aus möglichen Computerspiel-Situationen:Examples of possible computer game situations:

• Fahren über holpriges bzw. steiniges Gelände• Driving over bumpy or rocky terrain

• Bewegen von Lebewesen oder Gegenständen• Moving living beings or objects

• etc.etc.
