TITLE: TWO SENSOR MOVEMENT
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a method of movement using two sensors.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This application is an improvement on the method of
movement in U.S. Patent #5,993,089 entitled, "8-BIT BINARY CODE FOR USE AS
AN 8-DOT BRAILLE ARRANGEMENT AND DATA ENTRY SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR 8-KEY CHORDIC
BINARY KEYBOARDS", in which a copyright and a patent was granted. This
application is also an improvement on the invention found in U.S. Patent
Application Serial #10/071,952 filed on February 6th, 2002 entitled;
"VIRTUAL KEYBOARD AND CONTROL MEANS".
DESCRIPTION OF PRIOR ART
There are numerous well-known, prior art methods of moving using two sensors
independently, the best and oldest examples would be an animal pulled till and
the motor driven tractor. With the rapid development of man-machine interfaces
for communicating and control, improved methods of movement and control means
are becoming increasingly necessary. The main objective of the present invention
is to overcome all the deficiencies found in all prior art devices for two
sensor movement.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Briefly described, in one of the preferred embodiments of the present
invention uses any two binary sensors or two variable controlled sensors to move
an object in ... Movement of any object, robot,
cursor, machine, virtual reality environment, etc. in a one dimensional
environment or two dimensional environment can easily be obtained using only two
sensors. A computer mouse is one preferred embodiment of the invention. The
ability to use a two sensor keyboard to ... ... using a pointing device in a graphics program,
will increase speed and efficiency in any graphics program or any other two axis
cursor pointing program.
The system and method of the two sensor movement invention, according to the
preferred embodiment and alternative preferred embodiments of the invention, is
logically developed, relatively easy to learn and very quick to use.
These and other features of the present invention will be more fully
understood by reference to the following drawings and the detailed description
of the preferred embodiment.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

FIG. 2. Illustrates one preferred arrangement of a two sensor embodiment found in the disclosed invention.
FIG. 3. Illustrates ...
FIG. 4. Illustrates ...
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
In order to more fully understand the invention, during the course of this
description the two sensor invention will be labeled as a first sensor and a
second sensor, unless a second set of two sensors is added, and will be used to
easily identify like elements according to the different figures which
illustrate the invention. The preferred embodiment of the invention is shown in
FIGS 1, 2, 3 and 4 in the preferred embodiment’s simplest binary sensor on/off
method form.
These and other features of the present invention will be more fully
understood by referencing the drawings.
In summary, the two sensor movement invention, according to the preferred
embodiment and alternative preferred embodiments of the invention, is logically
developed, relatively easy to learn and very quick to use.
While the invention has been described with reference to the preferred
embodiment thereof, it will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art
that various modifications can be made to the system and method of the invention
without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as a whole.
