, Description:
Technical Field

[01] The present invention generally relates to the field of electronic devices and an interactive screen, and more particularly to a method and system for providing an interactive virtual smart screen on the surface such as a wall.

Background of the Invention

[02] As is generally known in today’s world, the use for interactive communication is well known and required for the proper means and understanding of expression. With evolving time and methods of expression and communication, it is very much required that a system of interactive communication be developed. Interactive communication is a freshly new concept being explored by companies required in digital times to simplify and increase the accessibility. The challenges to interaction at a mass level are many and with the digitization of expression, it is required to ensure that the same is accessible.

[03] Interactive screens and systems are well known. Such systems, which are typically implemented in touch smart screen communication devices, allow users to use the interactive smart screen for communication with various forms of input. Typical interactive screens also allow users to view information and interact with the information on the smart screen based on artificially intelligent and self-learning devices interconnected with a processing system capable of also using a resourced library and in connection with resources library allow accessible interactive communication for the ease of learning, teaching, discussion, expression, mass communication and various other forms interactions well known and required.

[04] The limitation of the prior arts and already known devices is that they require specific screens and electronic surfaces capable of receiving input from and displaying output. Another limitation with the prior arts is their complicated interactive systems and connection systems with the processing units which cause a delay in output and result in interruptions. It is also expensive to manufacture and repair.

[05] In addition, to the difficulties of multiple interactive inputs and limitation to draw, measure, read, accessible use of various signs, symbols, text and languages is required for effective communication and expression which the prior arts fails to disclose or teach. The evolution of digital communication requires that the expression of such signs, symbols, text and languages be easily expressible using such interactive surfaces. Another problem with the prior arts is their need for the output surface to be digital with complicated electronic framework making it expensive and non-consumer friendly with difficult maintenance, expensive repairs, heavy power consumption and the need for a device capable of creating such interactive communication on any surface meaning the need for a surface independent device was required.

[06] In conclusion, an interactive communication smart screen is required with accessible means of input and output in connection with the processing unit further in connection with multiple resourcing units capable of understanding and learning user input making communication simple and accessible.

[07] Further limitations and disadvantages of conventional and traditional approaches will become apparent to one of skill in the art, through comparison of described systems with some aspects of the present disclosure, as set forth in the remainder of the present application and with reference to the drawings.
