Drag and Drop Bluetooth?
Posted by Chris Leckness on 11/26/07 in Sony Ericsson
Thanks goes out to Patrick from Dialaphone for sending this one in. Looks pretty cool. Sony Ericsson looks like they are working on a way to flick a file via Bluetooth to another phone. This would be similar to Zune’s Squirting right? Naw, not really. The photo below is kind of tough to make anything out, but reading the patent explains it a bit better.
Basically, the user of a touch screen phone can simply use a finger/pen to touch and drag an item to be shared in the direction of the other phone. When he reaches the edge of the screen, a question will pop-up: “Send to yyy phone?” In case of NFC and short range radio, it does not matter in which direction the other user’s phone is as long as the devices are within range for communication. The user will intuitively drag the item in the direction of the other user’s phone, but in reality it could work equally well to drag the item in any direction on the display.
