User Gesture Input to Wearable Electronic Device Involving Movement of Device
First Claim
1. A wearable computing device comprising:
- one or more sensors;
one or more processors; and
a memory coupled to the processors and comprising instructions executable by the processors, the processors being operable when executing the instructions to;
detect, by one or more of the sensors of the wearable computing device when worn on a limb of a user, a gesture-recognition-activation event associated with the wearable computing device;
detect, by one or more sensors of the wearable computing device when worn on the limb of the user, a movement of the limb;
determine a gesture made by the user based at least in part on the movement; and
process the gesture as input to the computing wearable computing device.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a wearable computing device includes one or more sensors, one or more processors, and a memory coupled to the processors that includes instructions executable by the processors. When executing the instructions, the processors detect, by one or more of the sensors of the wearable computing device when worn on a limb of a user, a gesture-recognition-activation event associated with the wearable computing device; detect, by one or more sensors of the wearable computing device when worn on the limb of the user, a movement of the limb; determine a gesture made by the user based at least in part on the movement; and process the gesture as input to the computing wearable computing device.
