Abstract
A method of user interaction in a wearable device with a curved periphery is provided. The method includes displaying a blob when an item is displayed on the screen of the wearable device, obtaining a first input on the curved periphery associated with the blob, obtaining a second input along the curved periphery in conjunction with the first input, and performing an action in the item displayed on the screen of the wearable device.
Claims20
A wearable device for providing a user interaction, the wearable device comprising:
- a display;
- and
- at least one processor configured to:
- control the display to display a visual element in response to receiving a first input within a predetermined location associated with triggering interaction with at least one item displayed on the display when a first item and a second item are displayed on the display, the visual element being displayed on the display near a periphery of the wearable device,
- receive a second input associated with the visual element when the visual element, the first item, and the second item are displayed on the display,
- select the first item in response to receiving the second input,
- perform a first action associated with the first item in response to simultaneously receiving a third input associated with the visual element and a fourth input received on another part of the periphery when the visual element is displayed on the display and the first item is selected,
- select the second item in response to receiving a fifth input associated with the visual element when the visual element, the first item, and the second item are displayed on the display and the first item is selected, and
- perform a second action associated with the second item in response to simultaneously receiving the third input and the fourth input when the visual element is displayed on the display and the second item is selected.
A method of providing a user interaction, the method comprising:
- displaying a visual element in response to receiving a first input within a predetermined location associated with triggering interaction with at least one item displayed on the display when a first item and a second item are displayed on a screen of the wearable device, the visual element being displayed near a periphery of the wearable device;
- receiving a second input associated with the visual element when the visual element, the first item, and the second item are displayed on the display;
- selecting the first item in response to receiving the second input;
- performing a first action associated with the first item;
- in response to simultaneously receiving a third input associated with the visual element and a fourth input received on another part of the periphery when the visual element is displayed on the display and the first item is selected;
- selecting the second item in response to receiving a fifth input associated with the visual element when the visual element is displayed on the display and the first item is selected;
- and
- performing a second action associated with the second item in response to simultaneously receiving the third input and the fourth input when the visual element, the first item, and the second item are displayed on the display and the second item is selected.
