HANDHELD ELECTRONIC DEVICE HAVING GESTURE-BASED CONTROL AND A METHOD OF USING SAME
First Claim
1. A method of controlling a handheld electronic device, comprising:
- receiving a motion signal as input from a motion detection subsystem in response to a movement of the device;
determining from the motion signal a cadence parameter associated with the movement of the electronic device;
determining whether the cadence parameter is greater than or equal to a cadence reference level;
performing a first command when the cadence parameter is greater than or equal to the cadence reference level; and
performing a second command is performed when the cadence parameter is less than the cadence reference level.

Abstract
The present disclosure describes a handheld electronic device having a gesture-based control and a method of using the same. In one embodiment, there is provided a method of controlling a handheld electronic device, comprising: receiving a motion signal as input from a motion detection subsystem in response to a movement of the device; determining from the motion signal a cadence parameter associated with the movement of the electronic device; determining whether the cadence parameter is greater than or equal to a cadence reference level; performing a first command when the cadence parameter is greater than or equal to the cadence reference level; and performing a second command is performed when the cadence parameter is less than the cadence reference level.

14. A handheld electronic device, comprising:
-
a controller for controlling the operation of the device; and a motion detection subsystem connected to the controller which generates a motion signal in response to a movement of the electronic device; the controller being configured for receiving a motion signal as input from a motion detection subsystem in response to a movement of the device, determining from the motion signal a cadence parameter associated with the movement of the electronic device, determining whether the cadence parameter is greater than or equal to a cadence reference level, performing a first command when the cadence parameter is greater than or equal to the cadence reference level, and performing a second command is performed when the cadence parameter is less than the cadence reference level. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
