Method for Detecting Wake Conditions of a Portable Electronic Device
First Claim
1. A method of a portable electronic device for detecting wake conditions, the portable electronic device including a motion sensor and a touch sensor, the method comprising:
- detecting, at the motion sensor, tap data associated with user input within a predetermined time period;
activating the touch sensor in response to detecting the tap data at the motion sensor;
detecting, at the touch sensor, touch data associated with the user input within the predetermined time period;
determining whether the touch data corresponds to at least one touch criterion; and
activating a function of the portable electronic device in response to determining that the touch data corresponds to the at least one touch criterion.

Abstract
There is described a portable electronic device capable of detecting wake conditions comprising a motion sensor, a touch sensor and a processor. The motion sensor is configured to detect tap data associated with user input within a predetermined time period. The touch sensor is configured to detect touch data associated with the user input within the predetermined time period. The touch sensor is activated in response to detecting the tap data at the motion sensor. The processor is configured to determine whether the touch data corresponds to at least one touch criterion, and activate a function of the portable electronic device in response to determining that the touch data corresponds to the at least one touch criterion.
