SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INTERACTING WITH A TOUCH SCREEN INTERFACE UTILIZING A HOVER GESTURE CONTROLLER
Publication number: 20140240242Abstract: A system and method are provided for employing a hover gesture controller to reduce inadvertent interactions with a touch screen. The hover gesture controller recognizes the user's interaction intentionality before physical contact is made with the touch screen. This reduces inadvertent user interactions and offloads a portion of computation cost involved in post touch intentionality reorganization. The hover gesture controller utilizes a touch screen interface onboard an aircraft coupled to a processor and configured to (a) detect a weighted hover interaction; and (b) compare the weighted hover interaction to a threshold value to determine if a subsequent touch is acceptable.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 26, 2013Publication date: August 28, 2014Applicant: HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC.Inventors: Amit Nishikant Kawalkar, Kiran Gopala Krishna, Hans Roth -
