Wireless device gesture detection and operational control

摘要

Wireless device gesture detection and operational control comprises identifying a first position of the device based on a sensor reading of at least one sensor operating as part of the device. The method may also include identifying a change in the device's position to a second position that is different from the first position, and receiving a specific pattern of touch input data on a touch pad of the device, the specific pattern of touch input data identified as a predefined object which corresponds to dimensions of a human ear being pressed against the touch pad and changing a current operating state of the device to a different operating state based on a comparison and detection operation.

1. A method, comprising:
identifying a first position and a second position of a wireless device based on a sensor reading of at least one sensor of the wireless device; storing first position data corresponding to the first position and second position data corresponding to the second position in a memory; receiving a specific pattern of touch input data on a touch pad of the wireless device, the specific pattern of touch input data identified as a predefined object which corresponds to a human ear and the touch pad being pressed against one another; comparing a difference between the first position data and the second position data to a predefined human arm movement vector stored in the memory; determining that the difference between the first position data and the second position data corresponds to a predefined human arm movement vector associated with answering an incoming call to the wireless device based on the comparing operation; identifying the specific pattern of touch input data as being similar to a predefined human ear touch pattern by comparing dimensions of the specific pattern of touch input data to a predefined human ear touch pattern stored in the memory; and changing a current operating state of the wireless device to a different operating state, which comprises changing an idle operating state to a voice receptive call answering operating state.
