Wearable electronic apparatus
First Claim
1. A wearable electronic apparatus, comprising:
- a touch panel, configured for providing a touch interface and detecting a swipe gesture across the touch interface, the touch interface having a first portion and a second portion;
a processor, operatively coupled to the touch panel, the processor being adapted to;
assign a first border layout and a second border layout for discriminating between a vertical swipe and a horizontal swipe, the first border layout being different from the second border layout;
determine whether an initial touchdown point of the swipe gesture is located in the first portion or the second portion of the touch interface;
in response to the initial touchdown point being located in the first portion, utilize the first border layout and place the initial touchdown point at the center of the first border layout, and determine whether the swipe gesture is the vertical swipe or the horizontal swipe according to a directional vector of the swipe gesture in the first border layout; and
in response to the initial touchdown point being located in the second portion, utilize the second border layout and place the initial touchdown point at the center of the second border layout, and determine whether the swipe gesture is the vertical swipe or the horizontal swipe according to the directional vector of the swipe gesture the second border layout;
wherein the touch interface is shaped as a rectangle having a first pair of edges and a second pair of edges, the first pair of edges is longer than the second pair of edges, the first portion covers at least area adjacent to the first pair of edges, the second portion covers at least another area adjacent to the second pair of edges and corners of the touch interface;
wherein the first border layout comprises a first pair of border lines, the first pair of border lines, a vertical axis and a horizontal axis are intersected at the initial touchdown point and located on a plane of the touch interface, the first pair of border lines are mirrored to each other relative to the vertical axis and inclined to the horizontal axis at a first angle;
wherein the second border layout comprises a second pair of border lines, the second pair of border lines, the vertical axis and the horizontal axis are intersected at the initial touchdown point and located on the plane of the touch interface, the second pair of border lines are mirrored to each other relative to the vertical axis and inclined to the horizontal axis at a second angle different from the first angle.

Abstract
A wearable electronic apparatus includes a touch panel and a processor. The touch panel is configured for providing a touch interface and detecting a swipe gesture across the touch interface. The touch interface has a first portion and a second portion. The processor is operatively coupled to the touch panel. The processor is adapted to assign a first border layout and a second border layout for discriminating between a vertical swipe and a horizontal swipe. The first border layout is different from the second border layout. The processor is further adapted to recognize whether an initial touchdown point of the swipe gesture is located in the first portion or the second portion of the touch interface.

8. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by a wearable electronic device with a touch interface, causes the wearable electronic device to perform a method, wherein the method comprises:
-
assigning a first border layout and a second border layout for discriminating between a vertical swipe and a horizontal swipe, the first border layout being different from the second border layout; detecting a swipe gesture across the touch interface, the touch interface having a first portion and a second portion; determining whether an initial touchdown point of the swipe gesture is located in the first portion or the second portion of the touch interface; in response to the initial touchdown point being located in the first portion, utilizing the first border layout and place the initial touchdown point at the center of the first border layout, and determining whether the swipe gesture is the vertical swipe or the horizontal swipe according to a directional vector of the swipe gesture in the first border layout; and in response to the initial touchdown point being located in the second portion, utilizing the second border layout and place the initial touchdown point at the center of the second border layout, and determining whether the swipe gesture is the vertical swipe or the horizontal swipe according to the directional vector of the swipe gesture the second border layout; wherein the touch interface is shaped as a rectangle having a first pair of edges and a second pair of edges, the first pair of edges is longer than the second pair of edges, the first portion covers at least an area adjacent to the first pair of edges, the second portion covers at least another area adjacent to the second pair of edges and corners of the touch interface; wherein the first border layout comprises a first pair of border lines, the first pair of border lines, a vertical axis and a horizontal axis are intersected at the initial touchdown point and located on a plane of the touch interface, the first pair of border lines are mirrored to each other relative to the vertical axis and inclined to the horizontal axis at a first angle; wherein the second border layout comprises a second pair of border lines, the second pair of border lines, the vertical axis and the horizontal axis are intersected at the initial touchdown point and located on the plane of the touch interface, the second pair of border lines are mirrored to each other relative to the vertical axis and inclined to the horizontal axis at a second angle different from the first angle. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
