Abstract

Camera driven virtual workspace management is disclosed. A digital camera captures an input video stream comprising images of a surrounding environment limited by a field of view of the camera. The input video stream is processed by a handheld computer coupled to the camera. Parameters that define a partial view of a virtual workspace are redefined based upon motion analysis of the input video stream performed by the handheld computer during the processing.
