1. An electronic device for detecting input movement, comprising:
- a processor configured to;
obtain an acceleration signal from a finger-mounted device;
obtain a rotation signal from the finger-mounted device; and
determine an input movement based on at least one peak amplitude of at least one of the acceleration signal and the rotation signal;
determine whether a directional movement is detected based on at least one of the acceleration signal and the rotation signal and, when a sideways movement is detected, the processor determining whether the direction of sideways movement is left or right;
determining whether a positive peak amplitude of the acceleration signal is greater than a positive peak threshold and determining whether a negative peak amplitude of the acceleration signal is less than a negative peak threshold; and
determining an order of peak amplitudes, wherein the direction of sideways movement is determined by whether a positive peak amplitude occurs before a negative peak amplitude or a negative peak amplitude occurs before a positive peak amplitude.
