Abstract
A method comprising causing display of at least one interface element on a display that is configured to be oriented on a wrist of a user, receiving information indicative of a deviational plane wrist input indicative of physical movement in a deviational plane direction with respect to the deviational plane, determining an interaction operation based, at least in part, on the interface element and an interaction direction; and causing performance of the interaction operation is disclosed.
Claims20
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- at least one memory including computer program code, the memory and the computer program code configured to, working with the processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:
- cause display of at least one interface element on a display that is configured to be oriented on a wrist of a user such that a top of the display is proximate to an ulna of the user and a bottom of the display is proximate to a radius of the user;
- receive information indicative of a deviational plane wrist input indicative of physical movement in a deviational plane direction, the deviational plane being a plane that aligns with radial deviation of the wrist and ulnar deviation of the wrist, the deviational plane direction being a direction with respect to the deviational plane;
- determine an interaction operation based, at least in part, on the interface element and an interaction direction that corresponds with the deviational plane direction;
- and
- cause performance of the interaction operation.

- determining an interaction operation based, at least in part, on the interface element and an interaction direction that corresponds with the deviational plane direction;
- and
- causing performance of the interaction operation.
At least one computer-readable medium encoded with instructions that, when executed by a processor, perform:
- cause display of at least one interface element on a display that is configured to be oriented on a wrist of a user such that a top of the display is proximate to an ulna of the user and a bottom of the display is proximate to a radius of the user;
- receive information indicative of a deviational plane wrist input indicative of physical movement in a deviational plane direction, the deviational plane being a plane that aligns with radial deviation of the wrist and ulnar deviation of the wrist, the deviational plane direction being a direction with respect to the deviational plane;
- determine an interaction operation based, at least in part, on the interface element and an interaction direction that corresponds with the deviational plane direction;
- and
- cause performance of the interaction operation.
