Abstract
Wake-on-touch display screen devices and related methods are disclosed herein An example computing device includes a display screen, a first sensor to detect a presence of a user in an environment, a second sensor to detect a presence of an appendage of the user, and at least one processor to control a power state of the computing device based on first data generated by the first sensor and second data generated by the second sensor.
Claims24
An electronic device comprising:
- a touch screen;
- a touch controller;
- a first sensor;
- a second sensor;
- a user presence detection analyzer to analyze first sensor data generated by the first sensor to detect a presence of a subject proximate to the electronic device;
- a user appendage detection analyzer to analyze second sensor data generated by the second sensor to detect a presence of an appendage;
- a touch controller manager to cause the touch controller to (a) transition from a first power state to a second power state in response to the user appendage detection analyzer detecting the presence of the subject and (b) transition from the second power state to a third power state in response to the user appendage detection analyzer detecting the presence of the appendage;
- and
- a processor to power on the touch screen in response to a user input after the touch controller is in the third power state.

A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a computing device to at least:
- detect a presence of a user proximate to the computing device based on first sensor data generated by a first sensor of the computing device;
- instruct a touch controller of the computing device to transition from a first power state to a second power state in response to the presence of the user;
- detect a presence of an appendage of the user based on second sensor data generated by a second sensor of the computing device;
- instruct the touch controller to transition from the second power state to a third power state in response to the detection of the appendage;
- and
- cause the computing device to exit a connected standby mode in response to a user input.
A computing device comprising:
