Mobile device with wide-angle optics and a radiation sensor
First Claim
1. A mobile device equipped with at least a memory, a processor, and a display for showing content, characterized in that the mobile device includes wide-angle optics and a radiation sensor for detecting positions of the mobile device, the mobile device (601) being adapted to:
- receive at least two images through the wide-angle lens (501) and the navigation chip (502) to be stored as sets of luminosity values in the memory (604), wherein a first image indicates a first position of the mobile device at a first point in time and a second image indicates a second position of the mobile device at a second point in time, determine a change between said first position and said second position of the mobile device by applying a motion detection method to the first image and the second image, and alter the content shown on the display in accordance with said change.

Abstract
The invention comprises a mobile device controlled by moving it, for example, by tilting. The mobile device is equipped with wide-angle optics and with a radiation sensor detecting either visible light or infrared radiation. The wide-angle optics may be directed towards the user, whereupon the radiation sensor receives useful images through the wide-angle optics. The images include contrast or thermal differences which it make possible to determine in which way the user has moved the mobile device. In more detail, a tilt angle or a corresponding change can be calculated and then, on the basis of the change, the content shown on a display of the mobile device is altered. The content is, for example, a menu or a web page.
