Supported Patent Claims (No. 10,225,471)

Claim 1: The Foundational Architecture

"plurality of interconnected grids is configured to at least function as a single haptic zone or a multiple individual haptic zones; a touch controller, said touch controller comprising a touch controller interface that is configured to identify, at least one of, a haptic contact engagement, a haptic contact signal, and a haptic contact gesture detected on said single haptic zone or at least one of said multiple individual haptic zones"

Applications

Universal implementation across all interactive touch surfaces: Smartphones, Tablets, Automotive Dashboards, Medical Devices, and IoT Smart Screens.

Observed Behaviors
This is the foundational 'root' claim. If your device captures images/video and uses a touch screen with any form of zone-based interaction (grids, buttons, toggles), it fundamentally relies on this architecture. It is the inescapable baseline for modern interactive displays.

Claim 16: System for Toggling Haptic Zones

"A system comprising: means for processing a visual media capture or recording; means for capturing or recording said visual media in conjunction with said means for processing; means for presenting said captured or recorded visual media from said means for capturing; means for forming alternatively, at least a single haptic zone and a multiple individual haptic zones on said means for presenting; means for identifying, at least one of, a haptic contact engagement, a haptic contact signal, and a haptic contact gesture detected on said single haptic zone and at least one of said multiple individual haptic zones; means for alternately recording said visual media as a photographic image or as a video image based upon the number of times or the process with which at least one of said haptic contact engagement, signal and gesture is detected on said single haptic zone or at least one of said multiple individual haptic zones; and means for toggling between said single haptic zone and multiple individual haptic zones, wherein said single haptic zone is further configured to toggle into said multiple individual haptic zones once said photographic image capture or video image recording is activated."

Applications

Camera shutter vs. video record (tap vs. hold), Mode switching UI, and Dynamic control surfaces.

Observed Behaviors
Your UI uses a single on-screen zone that toggles between functions (e.g., photo vs. video) based on contact pattern, exposing additional sub-controls. Claim 16 describes this pattern: single haptic zone → multiple sub-zones. This is foundational to your UX.

Claim 17: Interconnected Grid Interaction

"A system comprising... a screen display... comprising at least a plurality of interconnected grids..."

Applications

Interactive Exhibits, Archives.

Observed Behaviors
Your digital archive walls use deep-zoom grids to explore collections. Claim 17 covers the navigation of these interconnected visual databases.
