  • Pointer acceleration system modeling
    Patent number: 10579166
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatuses utilizing pointer acceleration system modeling. In one exemplary method, among others, such a method obtains, a closed loop pointer acceleration system model, in which the closed loop pointer acceleration system model is based on (1) a model describing user pointing motions integrated with (2) a model of pointer acceleration motions under operational conditions; obtains values for system parameters that include pointer acceleration profile parameters and operational condition parameters; and determines a set of pointer trajectories for a given acceleration profile having the pointer acceleration profile parameters and operational condition parameters.
