  • Publication number: 20170060411
    Abstract: Touch sensor gesture recognition for operation of mobile devices. An embodiment of a mobile device may include a touch sensor for the detection of gestures, the touch sensor including sensor elements to generate touch sensor data for a detected gesture, and a processor to process the touch sensor data produced by the sensor elements of the touch sensor. In some embodiments the processor is to process the touch sensor data using a hybrid touch sensor algorithm, the hybrid touch sensor algorithm including a plurality of touch sensor algorithms, the plurality of touch sensor algorithms including a first algorithm and a second algorithm, where the processor dynamically changes between the plurality of algorithms depending on of the nature of the received touch sensor data. In some embodiments the processor utilizes a support vector machine with a radial basis function kernel in the interpretation of detected gestures.
