A HP-HIL connector for keybords next to a HP-IB connector on an HP9000-310 workstation The HP-HIL ( Hewlett-Packard Human Interface Link ) is the name of a computer bus used by Hewlett-Packard to connect keyboards, mice, trackballs , digitizers, tablets, barcode readers, rotary knobs, touchscreens, and other human interface peripherals to their ...
Mouse tracking (also known as cursor tracking) is the use of software to collect users' mouse cursor positions on the computer. [1] This goal is to automatically gather richer information about what people are doing, typically to improve the design of an interface. Often this is done on the Web and can supplement eye tracking in some situations.
HP-HIL Mouse from 1984. The Xerox Alto was one of the first computers designed for individual use in 1973 and is regarded as the first modern computer to use a mouse. [49] Alan Kay designed the 16-by-16 mouse cursor icon with its left edge vertical and right edge 45-degrees so it displays well on the bitmap. [50]
IBM sold a mouse with a pointing stick in the location where a scroll wheel is common now. A pointing stick on a mid-1990s-era Toshiba laptop. The two buttons below the keyboard act as a computer mouse: the top button is used for left-clicking while the bottom button is used for right-clicking.
The cursor for the Windows Command Prompt (appearing as an underscore at the end of the line). In most command-line interfaces or text editors, the text cursor, also known as a caret, [4] is an underscore, a solid rectangle, or a vertical line, which may be flashing or steady, indicating where text will be placed when entered (the insertion point).
Using gold nanoparticle inks on a glass substrate, scientists concluded that it was possible for them to control the production of print patterns to a scale of 2 microns. After printing, the nano-particle ink suspension was heated using a Gaussian laser; as it heated, the glass would expand due to the thermal conductivity of the gold nano-ink ...
Yellow dots on white paper, produced by color laser printer (enlarged, dot diameter about 0.1 mm) Printer tracking dots, also known as printer steganography, DocuColor tracking dots, yellow dots, secret dots, or a machine identification code (MIC), is a digital watermark which many color laser printers and photocopiers produce on every printed page that identifies the specific device that was ...
Microcontact printing (or μCP) is a form of soft lithography that uses the relief patterns on a master polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) stamp or Urethane rubber micro stamp [1] to form patterns of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of ink on the surface of a substrate through conformal contact as in the case of nanotransfer printing (nTP).
