Trigger device for mobile computing device |
摘要 |
A mobile computing device includes a processor and a trigger device operatively attached to the mobile computing device and configured to generate a mechanical vibration pattern for selectively actuating the mobile computing device. A trigger interface, illustratively an accelerometer, is configured to convert the mechanical vibration pattern into an electrical signal pattern. The processor is configured to actuate a mobile computing function depending on the mechanical vibration pattern generated by the trigger device. A table of properties stored in memory correlates the mechanical vibration generated by the trigger device with a specific mobile computing function. The trigger device may include a plurality of trigger parts; and the mechanical vibration pattern generated by the trigger device may include multiple bits of data generated by the plurality of trigger parts. The mobile computing device may be in a candy bar, clam shell, or other form factor and may include a removable handle. |

1. A mobile computing device comprising;
a first processor; a trigger device operatively attached to the mobile computing device configured to generate a mechanical vibration pattern for selectively actuating the mobile computing device; a trigger interface configured to detect and convert the mechanical vibration pattern into an electrical signal pattern; wherein the first processor is configured to actuate a mobile computing function depending on the mechanical vibration pattern generated by the trigger device in response to the electrical signal pattern. |
