Abstract
Touch sensor gesture recognition for operation of mobile devices. An embodiment of a mobile device includes a touch sensor for the detection of gestures, the touch sensor including multiple sensor elements, and a processor, the processor to interpret the gestures detected by the touch sensor, where the mobile device divides the plurality of sensor elements into multiple zones, and the mobile device interprets the gestures based at least in part on which of the zones detects the gesture. An embodiment of a mobile device includes a touch sensor for the detection of gestures, the touch sensor including multiple sensor elements, and a processor, the processor to interpret the gestures detected by the touch sensor, where the processor is to identify one or more dominant actions for an active application or a function of the active application and is to choose a gesture identification algorithm from a plurality of gesture recognition algorithms based at least in part on identified one or more dominant actions, and is to determine a first intended action of a user based on an interpretation of a first gesture using the chosen gesture identification algorithm. An embodiment of a mobile device includes a touch sensor for the detection of gestures, the touch sensor including multiple sensor elements, and a processor, the processor to interpret the gestures detected by the touch sensor, and a mapping between touch sensor data and actual positions of user gestures, the mapping of data being generated by an artificial neural network, where the processor utilizes the mapping at least in part to interpret the gestures.
