Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- detecting a change in a presence or an absence of a non-finger input device within an input device holding chamber, wherein the detecting comprises providing a detection signal indicating whether or not the input device is present within the input device holding chamber; and
adjusting a size of targets presented on a display in response to the detecting, wherein the adjusting is based on the change in the presence or the absence of the input device within the input device holding chamber.

Abstract
A device and method for adjusting the target size of display images based on the detection of an input device is disclosed. The device (10) includes an input device detection circuit (56) operative to provide a detection signal (57) in response to the detection of an input device (36); and a device controller (50) operative to adjust the size of a target (16-26) presented on a display (14) in response to the detection signal (57). The method of the present invention includes detecting the presence of an input device; and adjusting the size of the targets present on a display in response to input device detection.
