Abstract
Embodiments of the subject matter described herein provide a wearable device enabling multi-finger gestures. The wearable device generally includes a first sensor, a second sensor and a controller. The first sensor can detect a first set of one or more movements of a first finger of a user. The second sensor can detect a second set of one or more movements of a second finger that is different from the first finger. The controller is configured to detect a multi-finger gesture by determining a relative movement between the first finger and the second finger based on the first and second sets of movements and to control a terminal device in association with the wearable devices based on the multi-finger gesture.
Claims1
A wearable device, comprising:
- a first sensor configured to detect a first set of one or more movements of a first finger of a user;
- a second sensor configured to detect a second set of one or more movements of a second finger that is different from the first finger;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- detect a multi-finger gesture by determining a relative movement between the first and second fingers based on the first and second sets of movements;
- and
- control, based on the multi-finger gesture, a terminal device associated with the wearable device.
