  • Method and apparatus for determining a user input from inertial sensors
    Patent number: 8351910
    Abstract: A system and method for determining a user input based on movements of a mobile device. In a particular implementation, angular movement of the mobile device about at least one axis of a linear plane is detected. Linear movement of the mobile device along at least one axis of the linear plane is also detected. Finally, a user input is determined based on the detection of the angular movement and the detection of the linear movement.
    Type: Grant
