DEVICE OFF-PLANE SURFACE TOUCH ACTIVATION

摘要

A computing device includes a housing and a display assembly having a screen. The housing at least partially circumvents the screen so that the screen is viewable. A touch sensor is provided with a portion of the housing having a different planar orientation than a remainder of the housing. For example, the touch sensor may be provided with a portion of the housing that is off-plane with the screen of the display assembly. A processor is provided within the housing to detect a first user interaction with the touch sensor, and to interpret the first user interaction as a first user input. The processor further executes one or more instructions in response to the first user input.

1. A computing device comprising:
a housing; a display assembly including a screen, wherein the housing at least partially circumvents the screen so that the screen is viewable; a touch sensor provided with a portion of the housing having a different planar orientation than a remainder of the housing; and a processor provided within the housing, the processor operating to:
detect a first user interaction with the touch sensor when rendering paginated content of an e-book;interpret the first user interaction as a page transition input that is indicative of a particular page transition value and of a selection of a page transition type from multiple possible page transition types; andexecute one or more operations to transition rendering of the paginated content based on the indicated page transition value and the selection of the page transition type.
