Method and apparatus for enabling the adaptation of the input parameters for a computer system pointing device

摘要

Smoothing a mouse pointer track on a screen is accomplished by smoothing mouse movement information using a spatial filtering function. Initially it is determined if the mouse movement information from a pointing device should be smoothed, and if so, which component of the movement information needs smoothing. Then the type of smoothing function is selected and applied to the mouse movement information. The smoothed mouse movement information is then added to the last mouse pointer position thereby smoothing the mouse pointer track.
