Abstract
Various systems and methods for controlling a touchscreen user interface are described herein. A system to comprises a proximity sensor; a touchscreen; a proximity sensor driver to interface with the proximity sensor; a touch sensor driver to interface with the touchscreen; and a user interface manager module to: receive an event signal indicating that a user interface action has been initiated; access a delay timer for the user interface action, the delay timer set based on events received by at least one of: the proximity sensor driver or the touch sensor driver; and execute the user interface action when the delay timer is expired.

A system for controlling a touchscreen user interface, the system comprising:
- a proximity sensor;
- a touchscreen;
- a proximity sensor driver to interface with the proximity sensor;
- a touch sensor driver to interface with the touchscreen;
- and
- a user interface manager module to:
- receive an event signal indicating that a user interface action has been initiated;
- access a delay timer for the user interface action, the delay timer set based on events received by at least one of:
- the proximity sensor driver or the touch sensor driver;
- and
- execute the user interface action when the delay timer is expired.
A method of controlling a touchscreen user interface, the method comprising:
- receiving at a mobile device an event signal indicating that a user interface action has been initiated;
- accessing a delay timer for the user interface action, the delay timer set based on events received by at least one of:
- a proximity sensor driver or a touch sensor driver;
- and
- executing the user interface action when the delay timer is expired.
A machine-readable medium including instructions for controlling a touchscreen user interface, which when executed by a machine, cause the machine to:
- receive at a mobile device an event signal indicating that a user interface action has been initiated;
- access a delay timer for the user interface action, the delay timer set based on events received by at least one of:
- a proximity sensor driver or a touch sensor driver;
- and
- execute the user interface action when the delay timer is expired.
