Patent ID: 7215327

Claim:
A device for generating virtual keyboard/display on a physical plane that displays colors for producing a keyboard/display pattern and for entering input data, the device comprising: a first laser emitter emitting a visible laser beam, wherein light intensity modulation is made by switching the on and off of a switch of the first laser emitter and the keyboard/display pattern is produced by a surface scanning process, so as to generate a first reflective beam when a user uses the keyboard pattern for inputting signal; a second laser emitter emitting an invisible laser beam, wherein the second laser emitter performs a line scan at a distance in parallel with the physical plane and angular speed of the line scan is the same as that of the first laser emitter, so as to generate a second reflective beam when the user uses the keyboard pattern for inputting signal; a laser receiver receiving the first reflective beam and the second reflective beam to obtain the inputting signal; two laser diodes simultaneously emitting two beams traveling in the same direction but having different wavelengths; a first rotational multi-face mirror reflecting the beams so as to let the beams with a scan angle; a beam splitter producing an upper bean and a lower beam from the beams, the lower beam performing a horizontal scan through the first rotational multi-face mirror and the beam splitter; and a second rotational multi-face mirror reflecting the upper beam to perform a surface scan.
