Method and apparatus for controlling timing of status change of electronics apparatus based on user's finger location and input speed
First Claim
1. A method for adjusting a second system state change on a screen of a navigation system including an input device for responding to information displayed on the screen, the method comprising the steps of:
- measuring a current interval (CI) between recent two input operations in a series of input operations conducted through the input device;
calculating an average interval (AI) of the series of input operations;
calculating a reference interval (RI) determined from a equation;
RI=K×
(AI), where K denotes a proportional coefficient;
determining whether a current interval (CI) is equal to or less than the reference interval; and
suspending an occurrence of the second system state change until a first system state has been responded in case when the current interval (CI) is equal to or less than the reference interval (RI).

Abstract
A method and apparatus adjusts a timing of state change of an electronics apparatus having an input device by measuring user'"'"'s input speed for the input device and a distance of user'"'"'s finger from the input device. The method includes the steps of measuring a current interval CI between recent two input operations in a series of input operations conducted through the input device, calculating an average interval AI of the series of input operations, calculating a reference interval RI determined from the equation: RI=K×AI, where K denotes a proportional coefficient, determining whether a current interval CI is equal to or less than the reference interval, and suspending an occurrence of the second system state change until a first system state has been responded in case when the current interval CI is equal to or less than the reference interval RI.
